Province eyes tax cuts with $2 billion surplus
Despite a cooling economy, the B.C. Liberal government will head into a provincial election next year flush with cash and possibly wooing voters with more tax cuts.
Finance Minister Colin Hansen expects to rack up close to a $2-billion surplus this year on the strength of higher revenue from natural gas royalties, corporate income tax and the sale of drilling rights.
