Ben Eisen and Joel Emes : B.C. ’s budget for the 2025-26 fiscal year will be presented on March 4 .

They say the Eby government must start to roll back the rapid spending growth of recent years .

No other province is racking up debt at a remotely comparable pace, they say.

If the government had held the annual rate of spending growth to the 0.5 per cent per person (inflation adjusted) that prevailed during the era of spending restraint, the province would be in surplus today .
