DESCRIPTION

A Question of Relevance Do you remember what you were doing the evening the last federal budget was unveiled in Parliament? Probably not. Furthermore, you quite likely think that "it has nothing to do with me." Yet, the truth is that government's annual budget affects you more than almost any other regularly scheduled event in your life, other than such personal events as birthdays and anniversaries. It determines the taxes you pay, the chances of your getting a job next summer, the likelihood of getting a student loan, and even the size of your classes next year.
