In fact, one of the things the government can do well is make sure that discrimination at the workplace doesn't happen simply because they can regulate specific standards that all employees and workplaces have to follow.

But they do that right now! So, is your assertion that the WAP can somehow do this for cheaper? How?
I've had more than my fair share of dealings with the city and provincial governments with proposals. There is some corruption at both levels (far higher at the city, actually). But it is not obvious. It is not a matter of efficiency. It is matter of circumventing rules. You really have no idea just how powerful the bureaucracy is at these places. But Danielle Smith is not a micromanager. And she will need to be if you are determined to see smaller government. But then she will have less time for the 'bigger' issues. Are you okay with that?
