The problem is that the public has let the Government (or cowed the Gov) into letting to much of the resource royalties be used for Government operations instead of being saved for investment in province building (or rainy days).

If Prentice came out with the plan of getting the Heritage fund back on track by investing 30% of resource royalties in the Heritage Fund, cutting Government waste and implementing a revised tax structure for Albertans to address the lost resource revenue...would he get enough support to get that mandate?

Probably not... I wager most Albertans only think government needs to shrink and voila...problem solved.

Pass the mirror...
