A strong fiscal plan is the foundation for a healthy economy and a healthy province – one with the ability to grow, to face difficult circumstances, and to provide for the needs of its population.
Manitoba’s New Government has inherited a challenging fiscal environment. With their first budget, Premier Brian Pallister and his team will begin the hard work necessary to protect the front line services that Manitoba families rely upon.
