We did it in 1971 and got one of the best governments this province had ever seen. Could we not be lucky again?
Might be because handing out a meaningless chunk of cash is a far cry from the fiscal restraint that the WRP has been claiming to support? I don't think the trying something new is a bad idea, but I really wish that something new didn't have such unrealistic promises. If your position is that we should try and 'get lucky' with our government rather than elect the party with the best policies, then I think you are a bit out to lunch, even for a fake account on a message board.

And don't even get me started on conscience rights, but that's technically not a party policy... right?
