Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister says he is committed to cutting the provincial sales tax, despite the province's growing deficit.
The new Tory government says the deficit last year under the former NDP government was higher than expected at one billion dollars.
Pallister says that won't stop him from fulfilling a campaign promise to cut one point off the sales tax before the next election.
Some other promises, however, may be affected. Pallister says details will be spelled out in the provincial budget set for May 31st.
