Show Notes
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith aims to balance the provinces budget even with moderate oil prices, around sixty dollars a barrel. She spoke at a rural municipalities conference, addressing concerns about crumbling infrastructure, rising policing costs, unpaid oil well taxes, and stretched health services. Smith blames the old Alberta Health Services structure for rural care gaps and has dismantled it, creating four new agencies and ministries. She hopes the Middle East conflict ends soon and wants to see how the budget year plays out before tapping any oil windfalls.
