The Saint John Board of Trade is giving the provincial budget a cautious thumbs up.
BOT Chair John Warrington says he would give the budget a grade of B.
He tells CHSJ News he gives credit to the government for not raising taxes as it would have been an easy way out but more detail was needed on strategic spending and the 10 million dollars being put into Invest NB.
He adds it's important to know how the province is going to grow our economy at a faster pace.
He says cutting expenses can only take us so far.
