Manitoba slows a tax cut, offers some additional health-care spending
Manitoba's Progressive Conservative government is planning to move more slowly on a promised tax cut, reduce a handful of other levies and inject some money into a health-care system battered by COVID-19.
Tuesday's budget was the first under Premier Heather Stefanson, who took over after Brian Pallister retired last fall.
The fiscal plan still includes the intention to phase out the province's education tax on residential and farm property via rebates, but at a slower pace than Pallister had promised in last year's budget.
