In 2018 the 2018/19 budget was 56.2 billion. This year the 24/25 budget is 73.2 billion a 30.2% increase. Inflation has been 19% and pop growth 11% for a total of 32.1% assuming linear increase of expenses for adding people.
So the Conservatives have not meaningfully changed spending in this province since taking power. They have continued the spendthrift ways that the NDP started.
We need to quit characterizing the cons as fiscal stewards and the NDP as spendthrifts.
