It’s exactly this kind of thing. The government can trim fat in plenty of other areas to add money to healthcare and education. Instead of running around doing pressers giving taxpayer money to private businesses, put it into public services. If (and that’s a big IF), they do things that way and need more money, fine raise the corporate tax rate.

To me, it comes down to prioritizing health and education as the main services delivered by the province.
