Canada\'s plans to balance its budget will be delayed by a year to 2015 due to slow global economic growth and a dismal jobs report, the finance department announced Tuesday. The government of the G7 country had pledged during an election campaign in May to return to a budgetary surplus by fiscal 2014-2015, but is now aiming for a small surplus of $0.6 billion the following year, said an economic update.
