Manitoba Education Cost Target Hinges on Revenues
Education Minister Keith Cosens affirmed an objective to provide 80 percent of education costs in Manitoba as revenues permit. He warned the goal of eliminating school taxes remains unlikely without an extra $100 million, atop about $300 million already spent. He urged trustees, councilors, and MLAs to meet regularly to align on funding and services.
