The Liberal government's third budget concentrated on transportation in the GTA, but there's more to the $87.08 billion spending plan than red ink and Red Rockets.
Building on the $6.2 billion for higher learning over five years announced in the 2005 budget, Finance Minister Dwight Duncan unveiled a new 'jobs and skills renewal strategy' that will be worth $2.1 billion annually by 2008-09.
The plan is directly tied to three labour-market and immigration deals reached last November with then-Liberal prime minister Paul Martin. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has said his Tory government will honour the accords."
