Notely generally ran a moderate right wing government, especially after a couple months of getting a real look at the books, and realizing you had to be an adult to govern. There are two types of people, those who grow up when they need to manage the purse strings, and those who make excuses or take credit for things they didn't cause.
The UPC hasn't gotten into full spending swing yet, but they are an unpopular incumbent majority during a boom with an election 2 years away. It would take some real principals those guys just don't have to refrain from some very stupid populist spending.

The EMT situation has been in crisis mode for over a year and the UCP have done little to address the problem. Solutions have been raised by the health community and mostly ignored.
If the UCP spends, it will be with the intent to buy votes from Alberta voters.
