Mr. Chairman, if things continue just as they are now and we were not able to make any progress on resource revenue sharing, and if our revenues did not improve, then clearly we would not be able to have a balanced budget during the life of this Assembly. We are counting on two things happening. One is we are still optimistic to make some progress on resource revenue sharing and see some revenue increase on that side. Second is with the increased economic activity, there is every indication that with population growth and increased revenues from a number of various sources, that should also help our situation.
Generally speaking, without a better resource revenue sharing arrangement, I do not predict we will look forward to a balanced budget during the life of this government.
