Anyone who thinks Alberta's budget problems can be solved without cutting spending and increasing taxes is blinded by ideology. Taxes have to increase and become closer to the norm in the developed world. Spending has to be cut to become closer to norm in the developed world. Because for the last 15 years Albertans have enjoyed a fantasy economy based on petro-bucks, and that show is over. Time to sober up and start running our public services on a sustainable model.
