It is a good-news budget that allows us to invest in our future. The budget that I am tabling is a budget for today and tomorrow. We are in a position to enable every Quebecer to immediately reap the benefits of our sound management of public finances. Our room to manoeuvre enables us to relieve the fiscal pressure. We are leveraging the means required to prepare for the future. This budget places priority on investing in public services and, especially, in our young people’s educational success from early childhood through to higher education. We are making responsible use of the room to manoeuvre restored through economic growth and our disciplined management of public finances. Therefore, this budget is also based on prudence. The international environment remains uncertain and there are numerous challenges to be met. Hope, first for our children and grandchildren, to whom we want to give back the ability to make choices. The budget I am tabling today symbolizes renewed hope. We have put Québec back on the road to prosperity, as this budget concretely shows. Québec is in much better economic and fiscal health. We have put economic growth and job creation back on a solid, sustainable footing. We have gotten our fiscal house in order. We have come a long way since April 2014. Today, I have the honour of tabling Budget 2017-2018, our government’s fourth budget. More than $2.1 billion returned to citizens.The government is reducing income taxes and enhancing support for the most vulnerable.The government is working to promote the visibility of Québec culture and Québec’s place in the world.The government is investing in all the regions.
