Most you can definitely blame on the past governments but now it's up to the new governments to correct this immediately especially since they have campaigned on change. This change would be better with decreased spending rather than increasing taxes.
This is a good article from a right leaning institution that puts most of the blame on the provincials PCs. NDP need to act on this.

Maybe spending has increased so much becuase previous governments left massive infrastructure deficits?
Why is it all the other provinces need a sales tax to provide services, but Alberta doesn't? With oil revenue practically gone, we are somehow supposed to have enough money coming in from where? Even cutting whatever you think is necessary the math doesn't add up.
