I mean how to cope with a rapidly growing population. When you close a bunch of hospitals and then choke off funding for municipalities and school boards just as in-migration is ramping up steeply, you get the massive infrastructure deficit that the province - and especially the cities - have spent the last 15 trying to dig itself out of.
And really, the guy had no plan for dealing with budget surpluses except cutting people cheques. The notion of planning for sustainable public services decades into the future was simply beyond someone with such a limited vision. Klein was the anti-Lougheed.
