Premier Dwight Ball says they will take advantage of any federal programs to help bolster the province’s finances.

On Wednesday, the Bank of Canada announced a new $50-billion program to assist provincial governments with borrowing.

Premier Ball says they’ve been able to borrow some money on their own on top of what they’ve already borrowed from the Bank of Canada.

He says if these new measures put in place are something that can help and support the province, they will of course take advantage.
