Stephen McNeil and Halifax Chamber of Commerce

Halifax Chamber of Commerce: Following a speech to the Halifax Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, McNeil said the province isn t in a position to be able to afford the loss of revenue from a tax cut. Departmental reviews are beginning to wrap up, and McNeil said things will be finalized in time for the budget, expected to come at the end of March, according to The Chronicle Herald. Although he doesn t expect privatization to be part of those changes, there some stuff we re going to stop doing, said McNeil and Premier Stephen McNeil says the coming spring budget will be a difficult one that includes structural changes and no tax cuts. You ll see things in this budget that we no longer do, there will be some changes in how we deliver some of the things in our budget, he told reporters. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
