-- 蒙特利尔银行(BMO)表示,爱德华王子岛省(P.E.I.)预计2026/27财年预算赤字将达到4.1亿加元,此前2025/26财年的赤字预计高达4.5亿加元,远超预期。 该银行回顾称,最初的预算计划预计赤字为1.84亿加元,但由于收入略有下降和支出大幅增加,该省的赤字进一步扩大。 蒙特利尔银行表示,2026/27财年的赤字约占国内生产总值(GDP)的3.5%,有望成为加拿大今年最大的赤字。 赤字将持续存在,到2028/29财年将略微收窄至3.38亿加元。 巨额赤字将对今年的净债务构成上行压力,目前净债务预计为45亿加元,略高于GDP的38%。蒙特利尔银行指出,持续的赤字将使爱德华王子岛的财政赤字率在2028/29财年达到40%,接近该省赤字率的较高水平。 2026/27财年的长期借款预计为9亿加元,较上一财年略有下降。 该银行表示,这将是爱德华王子岛财政赤字最为严重的一次,可能终结该省过去十年预算基本平衡的局面。

New Zealand Reviews Transport Rules to Improve Fuel Security
The New Zealand Government said it is preparing to remove or suspend regulatory barriers that make it harder for businesses and communities to cope with global fuel shocks, according to a Monday statement from Minister for Regulation David Seymour and Minister for Transport Chris Bishop.The government is exploring several policy shifts, including allowing some heavy vehicles to carry more weight per trip, and bringing some license class weight thresholds for zero-emission vehicles in line with similar diesel vehicles.The government is also considering relaxing time and access restrictions for over-dimension vehicles and removing some restrictions on the routes that over-dimension vehicles can use and when they can travel.Seymour said that the Government intends to avoid a lockdown situation due to the oil shock and remain in the first phase of the National Fuel Response Plan for as long as possible.The statement said that the government is considering all options so they can be implemented quickly if New Zealand moves to phase two, and they expect options to be ready by the end of April if needed.In case the move to the second phase becomes less likely, some options could be reworked into more permanent changes to reduce the impact of elevated fuel prices on the economy over the medium to long-term, the statement added.
