I feel reducing spending is the most significant issue facing the province. I think a great start to reducing spending would be instituting the 25 cost saving measures proposed by the Wildrose Party. I think recognizing that almost all of the increased spending over the past 10 years has gone towards public salaries instead of improvements to the system is critical to realizing why our budget is so out of balance.

I also think we need some real leadership in changing the health care system which is clearly unsustainable in it's current form. Moving towards cheaper and much more successful systems involving parallel delivery such as in Germany and Switzerland would get my vote overnight. Unfortunately no party advocates this stance right now.
Those aren't solutions, those are ideas. You basically just said this:

The best way to be successful is to reduce spending because all of the bad things that happened in the province happened because we increased spending.

Also, I think we should fix healthcare so it is better.

Do you hear how ridiculous that sounds?
