Alberta ended the last fiscal year with an $8.3-billion dollar surplus, a swing of nearly $8 billion from what the government accounted for in Budget 2024 .
Much of that bottom line is a product of continued increases to Alberta ’s population, which grew by 4.4 per cent in 2024 , adding approximately 200,000 new people to the province.
Alberta received $300 million more than it projected from the federal government, which the province attributes to increased money from Canada Health Transfer.
