Alberta’s finance minister is set to table the 2024 budget on Thursday afternoon.

Premier Danielle Smith has warned that the province will need to show restraint in this year’s budget.

In a paid televised address last week, Smith said lower resource revenues and the volatile price of oil and gas have prompted the government to think of a long-term strategic financial plan to have a “stable, balanced budget.”

In a fiscal update in November, Finance Minister Nate Horner said the province was on track to record a $5.5-billion surplus when the 2023-24 budget year ends in March.

The upcoming sitting of the legislature is expected to include the start of major changes to the structure of Alberta’s $17-billion health system.

Smith has promised to dismantle Alberta Health Services and divide the work among four new subgroups to deliver more focused care.
