Federal Department Of Finance Report Shows NDP Has Best Balanced Budgets Record
The above chart shows the number of years that a balanced budget was achieved by provincial governments of various political stripes. It covers 23 fiscal year periods from the 1986-87 to 2008-09 across various administrations.
New Democratic provincial governments achieved the highest period with surplus budgets followed by Conservative administrations. Liberal provincial administrations had the worst record of deficit.
Don't let Conservatives or Liberals succeed in their scare tactics concerning New Democrats and their fiscal achievements.
The Fiscal Reference Table is produced annually by the Federal Department of Finance. This chart is from the report for 2008-09.
Right on. Good post.
