"Fairly Underwhelming," UMNB on the Provincial Budget
Welcome to Municipal Affairs, I am Your Host Christopher Brown. On March 19th, 2024, Premier Blaine Higgs and the Governing Progressive Conservative Party tabled New Brunswick’s 2024-2025 Provincial Budget. Now according to the province - this budget, “is the result of years of responsible fiscal management and a commitment to providing services that support a growing population.” The Finance and Treasury Board Minister, Ernie L. Steeves, tabled a $1.2-billion capital budget, an increase of nearly $200 million over the multi-year plan tabled last year. We caught up with Andrew Black, the President of the Union of the Municipalities of New Brunswick, for his reaction to the provincial budget. As a prominent advocate for municipal interests, President Black's perspective promises to shed light on the implications of this provincial budget, leading up to the next Provincial Election scheduled for October. This is Municipal Affairs. *************************************************** Support The Show Today: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/support-the-showJoin The Show: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/be-part-of-the-show *************************************************** Follow Us On Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@crossborderpodcast Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/crossborderinterviews/ *************************************************** Listen To The Show: Apple: https://apple.co/41p5I2I Spotify: https://bit.ly/3tkvb0E Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/crossborderinterviewswithchrisbrown Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/ Municipal Affairs is Part of The Cross Border Network ©2024
