Le budget 2025 échoue à soutenir adéquatement le secteur public et à transformer l’économie.
The Quebec budget presented by Finance Minister Eric Girard maintains the same approach as the past three decades, implementing timid revenue increases and expenditure levels that will lead to austerity in public services. While the government claims it will avoid austerity, the budget fails to adequately support the public sector and transform the economy, relying on "optimizing" expenses and limiting healthcare outsourcing. The budget also allocates funds to mitigate the impact of U.S. tariffs, continuing a free-trade approach instead of diversifying Quebec's industrial structure.
