TORONTO, March 8 (Reuters) - The western Canadian province
of Manitoba on Tuesday projected a C$646 million ($481.55
million) deficit in 2015-16, up from a previous estimate of
C$421 million, as its left-of-center New Democrat (NDP)
government readied for an April election trailing the
right-leaning Progressive Conservative opposition.
Manitoba, whose province depends on farming, manufacturing
and mining, projected spending at C$13.03 billion. The fiscal
update, in place of what is traditionally a full budget in
April, will serve as a blueprint for NDP Premier Greg Selinger's
election campaign.
