On February 25th, 2014 the Seniors Action and Liaison Team (S.A.L.T.) held a public forum on the upcoming provincial budget. Dr. Mel McMillan, professor emeritus in the department of economics at the University of Alberta, gave a presentation on the history of Alberta's budgets and the current gap between revenue and expenditures. In this video S.A.L.T. attendees supply comments and questions to a panel of MLAs who included David Dorward of the Progressive Conservatives, Dr. Raj Sherman of the Liberals, and Brian Mason of the New Democratic Party. The Wildrose Party were invited but did not attend.
