The Liberal austerity budget:

– Eliminates the Film Tax Credit
– Cuts funding to the Department of Environment
– Deregulates tuition fees
– Freezes social assistance rates
– Gives away millions more in corporate welfare
– And more
The Provincial government votes on the budget this Friday.
IT WON’T PASS QUIETLY!!!
