Quote of the Week

"Alberta's commitment to fiscal discipline and our unrelenting focus on economic growth has helped bring about an extraordinary turnaround in our financial situation. We promised Albertans we would get our fiscal house in order and that's exactly what we've done. Now, we're paying down debt so future generations won't have to, saving more for a rainy day, and putting more money in Albertans' pockets." - Alberta Premier Jason Kenney on the province’s expected $13.2b surplus.
