You could tie salary increases to inflation. I never budgeted any savings for hiring freeze anyways. Learn to live within a realistic budget. These kinds of things happen to families every day, and yet it's impossible for a government to do the same thing?
Its about prioritization, efficiency and delivering on core accountability. Something the PC's are terrible at. |
Its cute. Tie public sector wage increases to inflation and pretty soon you have no one who wants to do this work. I had a boss give me a raise tied to inflation, once. Within six months I was out the door and on my own. Thats the reality of the labour situation in Alberta.
I am highly skeptical that this would fly, but by all means I hope this is the kind of thing the Wildrose is banking on.
