The Liberals have released a document they say shows that Higgs made almost $40 million in overspending disappear over a July weekend in 2014. The internal email says the province was projecting $40 million in overspending on Friday, July 18, 2014. By Tuesday, a first-quarter budget update was projecting $2.1 million in overspending. Progressive Conservative Leader Blaine Higgs says the Liberals are misleading in how they describe the document and how government works. The internal email projecting a $40 million in overspending was sent at 9:18 a.m. on Friday, July 18, 2014.
