Budget forecast shows Canada posting surplus one year early
The budget watchdog projects a 2014-15 surplus of 3.4 billion, reversing the government's November update that had a 2.9 billion shortfall. Ottawa is seen hitting further surpluses this year and next before small deficits reappear due to lower employment insurance rates in 2017. Minor tax tweaks or spending restraint could erase those deficits, per the status quo forecast ahead of Tuesday's budget.
