Province records $14.4M surplus for fiscal 2022-23

Audited financial results for PEI show the province recorded a surplus of 14.4 million dollars for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.  Finance Minister Jill Burridge says that’s a decrease of almost 68 million dollars from the previous fiscal year.  The government had forecast a deficit for the 2022-2023 fiscal year of about 66 million dollars.  Burridge says the surplus came from higher-than-expected tax revenue.
