Budget 2009: Building On Our Strength is Alberta’s fiscal blueprint to support the province’s economy while continuing to provide priority services for Albertans.
This year’s budget is built around government’s four point plan for economic recovery, which calls for keeping an eye on spending, using savings to protect programs and services for Albertans while keeping taxes low, continuing to invest in infrastructure, and promoting the province on the world stage.
Budget 2009 plans for spending of $36.4 billion to maintain important government programs and services, especially for those Albertans most in need, and to support continued responsible development of the province’s energy resources.
