2013 federal budget a concern for the P.Q.

Canada’s finance minister, Jim Flahrety is scheduled to present the 2013-2014 federal budget on Thursday.

In anticipation, Quebec’s finance minister, Nicolas Marceau says the federal budget will not affect his.

Marceau told the Gazette he is concerned over circulating rumours that Flahrety will not renew the federal skills training program in 2014.

This could result in cuts of $116 million in funding to Emploi-Quebec.
