Sadly, we are seeing exactly what was predicted by both the Wildrose AND the Liberals prior to the election of the Redford PC's.... totally irresponsible revenue forecasts and huge spending promises leading to cuts and deficits. Welcome to Redberta.

No, the reason I laugh at their "budget" is because the numbers don't add up. The entire thing is predicated on the cancellation of the $2B carbon capture project...except that this would only save about $500M and leaves their budget off by roughly a billion dollars. That and their continued reliance on resource revenue without an eye towards any future generations. But lets not lets the facts of their budget document get in the way of good ol' partisanship.

What i am convinced of however, is that had the riding gone PC there would never have been a peep about shutting it down and instead it would have been built and used as it was designed to, regardless of any letters from Edmonton and Calgary police chiefs who conveniently were asked their thoughts only after the election.
Its so transparent its ridiculous, and no it doesnt matter what WR would have done because there is no known answer since they have not had a chance to actually make a decision.
Slava, since you are seemngly saying this decision is OK because the WR would have done the same thing, can you tell me what the Liberals would have done if elected and why it would be the correct course of action?

I don't know what the Liberals would've done actually. That truly is irrelevant though as no one would've believed they would form government, and they're not crying "politics" at this cancellation. The Wildrose though is saying this was a terrible decision, and are entirely hypocritical in that stance if they'd have made the same call.
