Alberta sees brighter finances after lower deficit in 2017-18
Alberta’s 2017-18 annual report shows an $8 billion deficit, $2.5 billion below prior projections, as non-renewable resource revenue rose to $5 billion and oil prices improve. The NDP says recovery tops two thirds of losses from 2014, with growth of 4.9 percent last year and 2.7 percent forecast, while diversification remains a goal to reduce oil dependence.

Saskatchewan licence permits raise questions for Medicine Hat
Saskatchewan approved 51 retail permits province wide with seven in Saskatoon while Alberta has yet to set a licence cap. About a dozen Medicine Hat addresses filed with AGLC face a 21 day public objection period. Snyder expects licensing bylaws updated in September before October 17 federal rules take effect. The Medicine Hat zoning map limits shops to major corridors and downtown areas. City building inspectors will verify construction work and occupancy permits with provincial security standards certified by Alberta Gaming and Liquor inspectors.
