You've moved the goal posts now, but whatever floats your boat. Originally you criticized Danielle Smith for promising to balance the budget in 2012 and now you're talking about today. Once again, you can't state absolutely that the Wild Rose wouldn't have balanced the budget in 2012 because they weren't in power.
Am I disappointed that the WRP wouldn't balance the budget if they were in power this year? Of course. But the reality is the current government has put us in such a deep dark hole that it would be nearly impossible to eliminate the deficit without drastic and severe spending cuts that would have terrible consequences. You don't turn the titanic overnight.
Does that mean I think it's ok to continue on the same path and put our children into even further debt, to the tune of 22 BILLION by 2017 on the PC's current course? No freaking way.
