At the time of the 2012 election, Alberta's annual deficit was measured in the tens of billions. The Wildrose campaign stated that they would balance the budget without raising taxes; however, they did not provide any specific details on where exactly they would cut spending to make the numbers work out. So yes, their platform most certainly did have tens of billions of dollars attributed to empty platitudes.

Since when do I constantly attack the Wildrose Party? Do you have me confused with another poster? I barely ever comment about the WR party on this forum. In fact, this thread is the first time I recall even mentioning them since the provincial election two years ago.

And I certainly have never stated that the campaign platforms of the other provincial parties didn't also have issues, so I have no idea why you would attribute such a comment to me.
