Premier Smith defends tax break amid concerns over Alberta’s growing deficit
Description
February 28, 2025
Premier Danielle Smith addressed questions about Alberta’s fiscal outlook, highlighting a new tax break in the 2025 budget that will save the average Albertan $750. As Michael King reports, critics argue it does little for lower-income earners and suggest alternatives like raising the personal tax exemption.
