B.C.'s Eby says he would cut deficit by growing economy, cut wasteful spending
- David Eby said his government would reduce British Columbia’s projected deficit each year by growing the economy and cutting wasteful spending.
- Campaigning in Prince Rupert, Eby promised to double critical-mineral exports and expand the local port to make it Canada’s second-largest harbour by 2030.
- British Columbia faces a projected $13.8-billion deficit, while Conservative interim Leader Lorne Doerkson promised no new or higher taxes.
- Eby said the Conservatives’ deficit plans did not add up because the party had discussed major cuts to health care and education, which candidate Tony Luck said would take “the brunt” of cuts.
