Manitoba Moves Toward Strong Balanced Budget Law
Manitoba Finance Minister Eric Stefanson unveils a plan for a constitutionally backed balanced-budget regime in the 1995-96 year. If enacted, ministers face penalties for deficits, and a province-wide referendum would gate major tax increases. Stefanson cites a projected 48 million surplus and a 30-year plan to repay seven billion in debt.
