In a July 19th Global News article called “Canadian cities cash-strapped but keep books balanced,” IMFG Director Enid Slack noted that for Canadian municipalities, “there’s almost 4,000 so it’s difficult to speak about them altogether, but generally because they’re not permitted to run operating deficits, and there are restrictions on the amount of borrowing they can do, … they are in good fiscal shape.”
