Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff accused Prime Minister Stephen Harper Wednesday of using a $3-billion stimulus fund to hide the extent of the government's deficit, escalating a disagreement that has led to election speculation in Ottawa.

The clash between the Liberals and the Tories over the stimulus fund for Canada's sagging economy is fuelling election speculation.
