Government: Christy Clark

Christy Clark: Clark said passing the budget that was introduced last February is her government's top priority. The budget, which the Liberals forecast as a surplus of $197 million and the Opposition New Democrats say is more like a deficit of $800 million, was a major topic of debate during the May election campaign, which Clark's Liberals won, according to Huffington Post. She said the legislature may also debate a provincial apology for the Chinese Head Tax, put on hold just prior to the May election and VICTORIA - Premier Christy Clark says the legislature will be recalled within days to ensure the government passes its budget, even though she will be campaigning in a byelection for much of the debate. "The budget, the budget, the budget," was how Clark described her government's priorities when it recalls the legislature this month. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
