The cuts should come from Health care and whatever else. Doctors IMO make way too much money. 1 Doctor could probably pay for 4-5 teachers. I truly believe the gong show is from health care. It's one of the biggest uses of money, but yet it is also one of the most lacking areas in our system. Fix that, and life will be a lot better.
While I agree the cuts shouldn't come from Education... it wouldn't help too cut funds from Health care either. The province is already short in health care professionals... reducing doctors' pay would only encourage them to pack their bags and leave for the US.
