BUDGET 2012-13: KEEPING THE SASKATCHEWAN ADVANTAGE
Finance Minister Ken Krawetz today tabled a balanced budget that improves access to health care
and makes life more affordable for Saskatchewan citizens while ensuring spending on government
services remains affordable and sustainable. The 2012-13 Budget posts a pre-transfer surplus of
$95 million in the General Revenue Fund and a surplus of $15 million in the Summary Financial
Statements, which take into account all government operations, including the Crown corporations.
The Growth and Financial Security Fund is forecasted to finish the year with a balance of
$756.4 million - money that can be used to deal with emergencies and unforeseen expenses, if
necessary. Revenue for 2012-13 is forecasted to be $11.29 billion, while expense is expected to be
$11.2 billion, up by 4.7 per cent over last year. This is consistent with the plan outlined in the 2011
-12 budget and in the government's recent election platform.
The budget makes a number of key investments,
including:
$98 million increase or 3.5 per cent for
Regional Health Authorities; $60.5 million for the Saskatchewan Surgical
Initiative, to perform 8,000 more surgeries and continue reducing surgical wait times;
$16.9 million more for the Saskatchewan
Cancer Agency, for 6,000 new patient referrals, almost 30,000 chemotherapy treatments and
39,000 mammograms; $4.0 million to expand the colorectal screening
program province-wide, providing early cancer detection and improved survival rates;
$5.5 million more for the Shock Trauma Air
Rescue Society (STARS) Helicopter Ambulance;
$3.5 million for the Senior Personal Care Home
benefit, estimated to be $278 a month, rising to $369 per month by 2015-16;
$24.2 million, a $3.3 million increase to provide Seniors Income Plan benefit increases
of up to $50 per month starting July 2012, an increase of up to $10 per month in each of the
next three years;
$113 million, a $17.8 million increase to provide expanded Saskatchewan Assured
Income for Disability eligibility. The benefit
will increase and the number of clients will expand from 3,000 to 10,000;
$237.4 million in Municipal Revenue Sharing, an increase of $20.6 million or 9.5 per cent;
$4.6 million to meet the commitment to establish the
Saskatchewan Advantage Scholarship, that will provide new high school graduates with up to
$2,000 toward tuition fees at any Saskatchewan post-secondary institution;
$3.0 million increase to expand the Active Families Benefit Program to include all children and youth
under 18;
A new rental housing construction initiative providing a 10 year rebate of Corporate Income Tax
equal to 10 per cent of the expected rental income from new multi-unit residential rental projects; and
The new Saskatchewan First-Time Homebuyers' tax credit of up to $1,100 against Saskatchewan income
tax payable.
The 2012-13 Budget also makes a total of $788
million in capital expenditures across government,
including: $42.7 million to begin construction of seven
previously announced Long Term Care (LTC) facilities under a new co-ownership model with
health regions. Construction will continue on six LTCs already begun;
$88.7 million for 21 approved major school projects;
and $581.5 million in highways spending, commencing
the government's commitment to spend $2.2 billion over four years.
In order to make these improvements and ensure that government programs remain sustainable, the Budget
also seeks efficiencies across government. Third parties such as Regional Health Authorities, post-secondary
institutions and school divisions are all being asked to look for savings within their operations.
Efficiency measures in this budget include:
The Film Employment Tax Credit will be wound down, saving $8.0 million a year after previously
approved productions are completed; The province will no longer fund the Enterprise
Region program, saving $4.0 million this year; and
Charges under the Seniors' and Children's Drug Plan go up by $5 per prescription, which will save $10
million. These charges have not been changed since 2007.

Fifth Sunday of Lent Year B
Gospel John 12:20-33
Now among those who went up to worship at
the festival were some Greeks. 21They came to
Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and
said to him, ‘Sir, we wish to see Jesus.’ 22Philip
went and told Andrew; then Andrew and Philip
went and told Jesus.
23Jesus answered them, ‘The hour has come for
the Son of Man to be glorified. 24Very truly, I
tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the
earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but
if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25Those who love
their life lose it, and those who hate their life in
this world will keep it for eternal life.
26Whoever serves me must follow me, and
where I am, there will my servant be also.
Whoever serves me, the Father will honour.
27’Now my soul is troubled. And what should I
say—“Father, save me from this hour”? No, it is
for this reason that I have come to this hour.
28Father, glorify your name. Then a voice came
from heaven, ‘I have glorified it, and I will
glorify it again.’ 29The crowd standing there
heard it and said that it was thunder. Others said,
‘An angel has spoken to him.’ 30Jesus
answered, ‘This voice has come for your sake,
not for mine. 31Now is the judgment of this
world; now the ruler of this world will be driven
out. 32And I, when I am lifted up from the
earth, will draw all people to myself.’ 33He said
this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.
Thoughts on the Gospel
‘Jesus is near his end in the Gospel of today.
What precipitates his words, “Now the hour has
come for the Son of Man to be glorified”, is the
approach for the first time in his ministry of
Greeks (Gentiles) seeking him out. It was “to
gather into one the dispersed children of God” that
Jesus was to die. The “hour” of his death and
resurrection, his glorification, has finally come for
him to be lifted up and draw all people to himself:
gentiles together with people of Israel.
‘Jesus presents a brief parable. Symbolically Jesus
is the still-potent grain of wheat fallen to the
ground; from the ground-down Jesus springs the
harvest of believers glorified by him, with him, to
gain eternal life. ‘The Lord suffers in crucifixion;
we too suffer in obedience to the Father's will: the
deaths of those dear to us; our own ill-health and
injuries, and diminished vigor in aging; the
waning of love and support from those on whom
hopes had been set; overthrown hopes of success
as we had conceived it; ridicule and rejection,
maybe; and dependency on others as years take
their toll. And so we keep company with the Lord
as he comes to his death and to his glory. In Jesus'
resignation and his overarching hope, where better
could you and I be as he gathers us with him into
glory?’

$788 MILLION FOR INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS LIKE HOSPITALS,
SCHOOLS AND HIGHWAYS
Capital Investment up $193 Million or 32 Per Cent From Last Year. The 2012-13 Budget
boosts capital spending on schools, hospitals,
highways and other infrastructure projects by
$193 million or 32 per cent to $788 million. The total for facilities owned by government will be
$522.4 million, up $106.8 million or 25.7 per
cent from the previous budget. The total spent on grants to third parties such as
post-secondary institutions and Regional Health
Authorities will be $265.3 million, up $86.1 mil-lion or 48 per cent from the previous budget.
"We are continuing to meet the needs of Sas-
katchewan communities and Saskatchewan peo-
ple," Finance Minister Ken Krawetz said. "This budget makes a number of key investments in
roads, schools and health care facilities. It creates
new child care spaces and it improves our post-secondary institutions. It is helping us keep the
Saskatchewan Advantage."
Within a total Highways budget of $581 million, there is $275.3 million for government-owned
highways capital, including $91.7 million for
new bridges and highway upgrades, and $183.6
million for a number of projects such as complet-ing the twinning of Highway 11, work on the
West Regina Bypass and others.
There is $42.7 million to begin construction of seven previously announced Long Term Care
facilities in a new provincial government shared
ownership model, as well as additional grants for
six other facilities already underway. Planning and design work for hospitals in North Battleford
and Moose Jaw will continue.
The school system will receive $38.6 million to begin new school projects around the province,
also under a shared ownership model. An addi-
tional $50.1 million will be allocated for 15 ma-
jor school capital projects. There is $11.8 million to meet the commit-
ment for parks infrastructure, $48.4 million
for various federal-provincial infrastructure
programs, and $2.8 million for Building Communities recreational infrastructure.
"These investments are helping us meet the
challenges of growth," Krawetz said. "These infrastructure investments will help keep our
economy strong and our growing economy
will ensure we have the revenues we need to keep making these kinds of investments in
the future."

cent from the previous budget. The total spent on grants to third parties such as
post-secondary institutions and Regional Health
Authorities will be $265.3 million, up $86.1 mil-lion or 48 per cent from the previous budget.
"We are continuing to meet the needs of Sas-
katchewan communities and Saskatchewan peo-
ple," Finance Minister Ken Krawetz said. "This budget makes a number of key investments in
roads, schools and health care facilities. It creates
new child care spaces and it improves our post-secondary institutions. It is helping us keep the
Saskatchewan Advantage."
Within a total Highways budget of $581 million, there is $275.3 million for government-owned
highways capital, including $91.7 million for
new bridges and highway upgrades, and $183.6
million for a number of projects such as complet-ing the twinning of Highway 11, work on the
West Regina Bypass and others.
There is $42.7 million to begin construction of seven previously announced Long Term Care
facilities in a new provincial government shared
ownership model, as well as additional grants for
six other facilities already underway. Planning and design work for hospitals in North Battleford
and Moose Jaw will continue.
The school system will receive $38.6 million to begin new school projects around the province,
also under a shared ownership model. An addi-
tional $50.1 million will be allocated for 15 ma-
jor school capital projects. There is $11.8 million to meet the commit-
ment for parks infrastructure, $48.4 million
for various federal-provincial infrastructure
programs, and $2.8 million for Building Communities recreational infrastructure.
"These investments are helping us meet the
challenges of growth," Krawetz said. "These infrastructure investments will help keep our
economy strong and our growing economy
will ensure we have the revenues we need to keep making these kinds of investments in
the future."

BUDGET 2012-13: KEEPING THE SASKATCHEWAN ADVANTAGE
Finance Minister Ken Krawetz today tabled a balanced budget that improves access to health care
and makes life more affordable for Saskatchewan citizens while ensuring spending on government
services remains affordable and sustainable. The 2012-13 Budget posts a pre-transfer surplus of
$95 million in the General Revenue Fund and a surplus of $15 million in the Summary Financial
Statements, which take into account all government operations, including the Crown corporations.
The Growth and Financial Security Fund is forecasted to finish the year with a balance of
$756.4 million - money that can be used to deal with emergencies and unforeseen expenses, if
necessary. Revenue for 2012-13 is forecasted to be $11.29 billion, while expense is expected to be
$11.2 billion, up by 4.7 per cent over last year. This is consistent with the plan outlined in the 2011
-12 budget and in the government's recent election platform.
The budget makes a number of key investments,
including:
$98 million increase or 3.5 per cent for
Regional Health Authorities; $60.5 million for the Saskatchewan Surgical
Initiative, to perform 8,000 more surgeries and continue reducing surgical wait times;
$16.9 million more for the Saskatchewan
Cancer Agency, for 6,000 new patient referrals, almost 30,000 chemotherapy treatments and
39,000 mammograms; $4.0 million to expand the colorectal screening
program province-wide, providing early cancer detection and improved survival rates;
$5.5 million more for the Shock Trauma Air
Rescue Society (STARS) Helicopter Ambulance;
$3.5 million for the Senior Personal Care Home
benefit, estimated to be $278 a month, rising to $369 per month by 2015-16;
$24.2 million, a $3.3 million increase to provide Seniors Income Plan benefit increases
of up to $50 per month starting July 2012, an increase of up to $10 per month in each of the
next three years;
$113 million, a $17.8 million increase to provide expanded Saskatchewan Assured
Income for Disability eligibility. The benefit
will increase and the number of clients will expand from 3,000 to 10,000;
$237.4 million in Municipal Revenue Sharing, an increase of $20.6 million or 9.5 per cent;
$4.6 million to meet the commitment to establish the
Saskatchewan Advantage Scholarship, that will provide new high school graduates with up to
$2,000 toward tuition fees at any Saskatchewan post-secondary institution;
$3.0 million increase to expand the Active Families Benefit Program to include all children and youth
under 18;
A new rental housing construction initiative providing a 10 year rebate of Corporate Income Tax
equal to 10 per cent of the expected rental income from new multi-unit residential rental projects; and
The new Saskatchewan First-Time Homebuyers' tax credit of up to $1,100 against Saskatchewan income
tax payable.
The 2012-13 Budget also makes a total of $788
million in capital expenditures across government,
including: $42.7 million to begin construction of seven
previously announced Long Term Care (LTC) facilities under a new co-ownership model with
health regions. Construction will continue on six LTCs already begun;
$88.7 million for 21 approved major school projects;
and $581.5 million in highways spending, commencing
the government's commitment to spend $2.2 billion over four years.
In order to make these improvements and ensure that government programs remain sustainable, the Budget
also seeks efficiencies across government. Third parties such as Regional Health Authorities, post-secondary
institutions and school divisions are all being asked to look for savings within their operations.
Efficiency measures in this budget include:
The Film Employment Tax Credit will be wound down, saving $8.0 million a year after previously
approved productions are completed; The province will no longer fund the Enterprise
Region program, saving $4.0 million this year; and
Charges under the Seniors' and Children's Drug Plan go up by $5 per prescription, which will save $10
million. These charges have not been changed since 2007.
