MSP CUTS in 2018 and PST reduction on electricity not confirmed.

Because the Liberal Budget was not passed before the election (and will cease to exist if Liberals fail the non-confidence vote on June 29) these cuts will not happened.  The NDP/Greens will have to bring in a budget and may resurrect these cuts??

*************
Small businesses are also getting a boost from the budget. The province plans to eliminate PST on electricity by April 2019 and cut it by 50 per cent as of Oct. 1, 2017. (This would reduce the PST from 7% to 3.5%)
