Anyone who doesn't think they already have the bulk of the budget hammered out at this point is delusional.
The whole having a "summit" is just hogwash. They were elected to govern and here we are a month away from the budget and they are supposedly still in "consulation" mode - give me a break.

ONE-WAY CONVERSATION
I was one of the lucky PC party members to be invited to participate in the (telephone town hall) sham. I sat on hold after punching in the code to register that I had a question to ask, and listened to the sycophants grovel to Premier Alison Redford — not one of them actually asking hard questions. Finally an aide came on so I could tell him my question for the premier. He said thank you, but these questions are being vetted and picked. As a result, all you heard were the liberal conservatives spouting what Ms. Redford wants to hear and endlessly spouts back to us as her “conversation with Albertans” and nothing else. This is no conversation — this is a nanny lecture. I would love to say more, but I am for once, speechless. Go Wildrose!
