Since the party's election in October, it says it has found various savings, including $15 million by disbanding the surgical task force, $25 million by cancelling a government fund to support the ideas of civil servants and $32 million because the government's COVID command centre is no longer running.

The province is also reducing $14 million in spending by eliminating duplicative work within health-care administration. No jobs will be lost as a result, the premier said.

The province is also realizing $16.3 million in savings by scaling back on a planned stockpiling of personal protective equipment supplies and $5.8 million in reduced expenses because only a small number of the health-care workers recruited through a recent international trip to the Philippines have arrived so far.
