Where did the UCP lie here though? Like I know a million places, but where are you talking about in relation to what I said? The NDP said they were raising the corporate taxes and that was an absolute dagger. All the ads about how we "Can't Afford the NDP" and such were immediately shown to be accurate.

The two big ones that come to mind are: they lied about privatizing health care and the APP. Both of which will be bad if not devasting for the economy.
How were the "Can't Afford the NDP" ads shown to be accurate? If the ad said, the NDP want to raise taxes on big corporations and the wealthy in order to improve the services to and the lives of Albertans...that would have been accurate. It turns out that we can't afford the UCP, or their apologists.
