provincial budget

A provincial budget is a detailed financial plan that outlines how a provincial government will raise and spend money over a year. It includes expected sources of revenue, such as taxes and federal transfers, and planned expenses like healthcare, education, transportation, and public services. The goal is to allocate resources efficiently to meet the province's priorities and ensure financial sustainability. The budget also provides transparency, showing residents how public funds are used and enabling government accountability. Ultimately, it’s a strategic document balancing revenue and spending to support economic health and improve residents’ quality of life.
