Agreed. That's why it is hard to dethrone PC for the last 40 years for AB had done fine economically for the most part. The introduction of PST will be the only PC death knell. Other than that, an immigrant from Nova Scotia who has no intention of staying in AB for the long term won't even care about high debt numbers, it was way higher back home anyway.
Voters' personal dislike of Redford is WR's only card of dethroning PC in 2 years. And that's why, funny as it may sound, WR must find a way to keep Redford in the premier's office over the next two years.
