‘I’m not going to wake up tomorrow’ and raise taxes, says Finance Minister Katrine Conroy.

With a $5.7-billion budget surplus in hand and enough briefing binders full of catch-up material to last through the holidays, B.C.’s new finance minister says she’ll be at work examining the province’s tax regime before the next budget is presented in February.

“I'll be … having those discussions with my colleagues about where they see that [surplus spending] working most in their industries and how we can utilize it.” “It's not just a provincial issue. It's an issue for municipalities and we all need to work together and to support each other,” she said.
