The Canadian federal budget for fiscal year 1982–83 was presented by Minister of Finance Allan MacEachen in the House of Commons of Canada on 28 June 1982. The budget angered public sector unions by imposing a wage restraint package limiting wage increases to six and five percent in the following two years. (This was at a time when double-digit interest rates and inflation were common.)[2]
