(Vancouver) The Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives released a "Solutions Budget" today, which it says will restore economic and social security to British Columbians.
"The government's experiment isn't working," says Marc Lee, Economist in the CCPA's BC Office.

It's time to for the government to rethink its fiscal plans."
