It's budget day in Alberta.

The NDP will drop their spring budget Thursday, March 22, with what they say will be an eye towards balancing the books.

Finance Minister Joe Ceci says his budget will detail a step-by-step plan to balance the books by 2023.

The Notley Government's been wracking up debts of close to $10 billion a year since taking office.

This will be the last chance for the NDP to table a budget before next Spring's election.
