The NDP released its wish list on Sunday for the spring federal budget.

The list includes bringing back a federal minimum wage, introducing universal child care and scrapping income splitting.

Last week Finance Minister Joe Oliver said the budget won’t be released until April to give the government more time to evaluate the impact of falling oil prices.

NDP finance critic Nathan Cullen is urging Oliver not to delay the budget in the hopes that oil prices might recover.
