TORONTO — Ontario’s finance minister says he will table the budget on April 28.
Peter Bethlenfalvy calls it a vision for a “better, brighter future” and a plan to “get it done,” echoing a new Progressive Conservative election campaign slogan.
The date comes with just a couple of legislative sitting days before the expected election call.
Premier Doug Ford declined earlier in the day to say if he intends to pass this year’s budget or just let it serve as his re-election platform.
