Spending next to nothing because other places do is not sound economic policy. Waiting for better times where you end up paying three times as much as it would cost now is financially stupid. We've already done this and it was a disaster. Things didn't get better because of the cuts and not spending, they got better because oil and gas prices improved. Looks like the same old gang is back in power and nothing has changed. Kenney had better hope the general economy gets a lot better or he'll be one and done like Rachel. Hopefully over the next four years a financially responsible party emerges that's also willing to fight for our rights in Ottawa. If that happens they'll have my vote.
