Manitoba could trim public sector staff gradually to align with national average
Manitoba faces high public sector staffing costs with 103 workers per 1000 residents in 2010, 23 400 more than if aligned with Canada. A steady ten year policy of modest reductions could cut the wage bill by about 6 000 jobs and bring the ratio to near 88 per 1000 by 2020, easing tax burden. Ben Eisen and Jonathan Wensveen of Frontier Centre for Public Policy analyze fiscal benefits and feasible attrition driven reductions.
