I won't hold that against you. I have no desire to pay more taxes either.
I haven't gone through the WAP budget too closely yet so I can't defend it very well. I am sure it isn't the same level of detail as the actual budget though. I am sure the budget is the result of millions of dollars worth of work and don't think it is fair to expect a party to have those funds available to match it.
One of their platforms that I do like is the guarantee of steady and stable funding to municipalities which I see the PC's are trying to mimic with their funding announcements yesterday. That has to be better than the past method of promising money and changing or the terms several times before it is delivered. Our new hospital in GP has been promised and canceled at least 4 times going back to when Klien was in power.
