Canadian provincial and territorial leaders meeting in Quebec City urged the federal government to restore transfer payments for health and post secondary education and to enact major tax cuts. Manitoba premier Gary Filmon led calls for larger cuts and broader social spending, tying them to promises from the 1997 election and farm aid reforms. They also urged WTO discipline, reform of grain handling, and a moratorium on branch line abandonment.
