Land sales swell provincial coffers
REGINA -- Just a few weeks into the new fiscal year, the Saskatchewan Party government is already raking in more cash than it projected in the provincial budget.
The province`s record haul of $265 million from its oil and natural gas land sales in April -- the first of the 2008-09 budget year -- is $73.5 million more than the province budgeted for the entire year. It followed a record land sale in February, which bodes well for the five other such sales planned for this budget year.
