Yesterday, Finance Minister Siobhan Coady provided a fall fiscal update. Newfoundland/Labrador’s net debt is up from the spring’s $17.8 billion to $18.3 billion, and the deficit has grown to $218 million from $152 million earlier this year. In an interview with CKVB, Bay of Islands MHA Eddie Joyce warns this will become a big concern in the future.
Other stories in this CKVB Newscast include eight people inducted into the Order of Newfoundland/Labrador, a chat with musician and actor Daniel Payne, and Happy Halloween tips from the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary.
