All you need to know about the Ontario and Quebec budgets
Ontario: McGuinty Liberals 18 months away from an election. Broken many promises. In a deficit situation. Tory leader from Toronto. Threatening to take away Liberal seats. Liberals announce oodles of new spending for public transit and transportation for Toronto and the surrounding area.
Quebec: Charest Liberals a year or so away from an election. Broken many promises. Announce balanced budget but will not implement tax cuts promised three years ago. Modest spending increases in key areas.
