Here & Now POV: The St. John's finance department has turned up a $10 million surplus from 2010. Some of the revenue comes from utility and water taxes. But most of it comes from business taxes due to lower vacancy rates that year. Now that the money is available, the next decision is what to do with it. What should council do with the surplus? hereandnow.nl@cbc.ca

And the message here is that times are tight. The government says it's going to put every one of its program and services under scrutiny to try and find savings. Tonight we'd like your thoughts on this. hereandnow.nl@cbc.ca
