Saskatchewan’s Premier says in a statement about the Liberal budget that it continues to invest in programming without having the incentives to stimulate the economy to pay for it in the future. Scott Moe says, “While it appears federal NDP and Liberal priorities have been addressed, this budget misses the mark for provincial priorities when it comes to the Canada Health Transfer and initiatives for the energy sector, like enhanced oil recovery and a concrete plan for carbon capture utilization and storage.” Moe believes there should have been a commitment to North American energy independence, but in his words, “That’s something we will never see in an NDP-Liberal budget.”
