Finance Minister William Gillis has announced that he will bring
down the 1997-98 provincial budget on Thursday, April 17 at 2

Through the Speech from the Throne, the government has already
indicated that the minister will be reporting balanced budgets
for both the previous fiscal year (1996-97) and the current year
(1997-98). This marks the first time the province's books have
been in the black since the 1970s.
