Debt repayment key again whispers of cautious budget support
Jacobs says the budget prioritizes debt payoff amid rising demand for spending. Alberta groups like the Alberta School Board Association and Alberta Urban Municipalities Association welcome the numbers. He notes progress on a sustainability fund to offset oil and gas revenue volatility and highlights increased infrastructure funding for roads and schools while flagging ambulances and police funding details. He cites currency shifts affecting revenue and the BSE crisis last year as factors. The budget, still unfolding, is seen as largely positive with some questions pending.
