Saint John Board Of Trade Gives Verdict On Federal Budget

The federal budget is getting a thumbs up from the Saint John Board of Trade.

Its Chair Micheal Murphy tells CHSJ News it's a middle of the road budget with no real surprises but he wishes the Harper government revealed more details on the budget over the next few years and on how the deficit will be eliminated by 2014.

The Board of Trade is also expressing support for the provincial budget calling it a good start down the road to balance the books and maybe even achieve a surplus.
