Dear John,

The Alberta provincial government is experiencing a windfall in resource revenues.

A new Fraser Institute study out today finds that Alberta’s government could stabilize its finances for the long term – provided the government holds the line on program spending.

But successive governments — including the current one — more often than not spend resource revenue as it comes in the door, instead of thinking prudently about saving for times when resource revenues will inevitably be low.

Learn more and dig into the numbers here, and be sure to share this one on social media.

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
President
The Fraser Institute
