Alberta Tax Revenue Forecasts by Source and Rate

The Government of Alberta's fiscal plan forecasts tax revenue, disaggregating collections by specific tax type and applicable rates. For instance, fuel tax revenue is broken down by fuel type, such as gasoline, diesel, propane, aviation fuel, and railway. The data also includes estimates of revenue generated per unit of tax, like the $92.6 million collected per one cent of fuel tax on gasoline and diesel in 2012-13.
