P.A. prepares for provincial budget
Prince Albert is bracing for what’s expected to be a tough budget from governing SaskParty.
There’s a lot of unanswered questions surrounding how the government plans to tackle the projected $1.2-billion deficit. Premier Brad Wall has attempted to prepare the province. He recently took to Facebook where he hinted there could be changes coming to provincial taxes.
Donna Brooks, the CEO of the city’s YWCA, said she simply wants to walk away from the budget unscathed.
“Whenever there’s a looming deficit and you have a provincial budget coming down, of course it makes you nervous,” she said.
