Saskatchewan Finance Minister Ken Krawetz will table a budget today that has to deal with falling revenues from non-renewable resources, such as oil and gas and potash.

To keep the books in the black, Krawetz says "tough choices" have been made.

It's a resource revenue squeeze that has already been felt in neighbouring Alberta, which anticipates a two-billion-dollar deficit.

Daniel Beland, a public policy professor, says there will be some pain in the Saskatchewan budget.

But Beland says it won't be like the shock that many Albertans really faced because the fiscal situation is better in Saskatchewan.

Krawetz says there are some people who will say the budget is horrible, no matter what, and others will think it's OK.
