Actually the money will be probably borrowed and we'll go into a deficit (same thing if the coalition would be in power).
For sure they'll be forced to throw together a hasty ill thought out stimulus package just to appease the coalition. And Alberta will be mostly footing the bill. But with the possibility of a Dion/Layton/Duceppe team with the possibility of May in as the environment minister who knows what creative new ways they'll find to screw Alberta to appease their base. It wasn't too long ago that they were talking about carbon taxes and the like to keep the money flowing out of Alberta. Will we see NEP 2.0 new and improved (ie more devastating)?
