This is the UCP showing their complete fiscal incompetence. They are once again downloading costs to municipalities. Of course, most people just see an increase to the property tax and then point the finger at municipalities. The Alberta government has been doing this for a long time. They have taken away photo radar revenue. They removed electronic voting machines but refused to pay for all of the extra staff it's going to take to count votes, and the list goes on. They hate that municipalities do not vote for them. This is why they have introduced municipal parties. Our provincial government is doing everything in its power to manipulate you to download responsibility and to try and balance their budget by charging you more fees and forcing other levels of government to increase their costs. It's all smoke and mirrors lies, distortion and corruption.

Privatization of the power grid has been a failure in most jurisdictions in North America . This was already apparent in California when Alberta deregulated and privatized. We pay some of the highest rates in Canada consistently even before this latest round of gouging. This has nothing to with the NDP and everything to do with successive conservative governments that don't care about regular Albertans.

Running a deficit and giving a tax break. Voodoo economics. The UCP is utterly useless at fiscal responsibility.
