Action needed to deal with province’s massive debt

-

It’s getting tedious how outmoded socialists continue to blame others for the massive debt the NDP have forced upon us. Notley and the crew are again throwing money at the oil problem by buying 7,000 oil cars and 80 locomotive­s. How long do you think it takes to deliver 7,000 oil cars? These are massive builds.

If the manufactur­ers could build six cars a day it will be close to five years to deliver all of them. A kneejerk reaction that’s supposed to make us think you’re taking action. Notley, you can’t keep spending our money to make you look good in the present. People are losing jobs today and can’t find meaningful work.

As recent polls suggest, many people have lost confidence in the NDP. I, too, am getting tired of hearing excuse after excuse and the phrase “we need to do more.”

After three long years, an economy in ruins, jobs lost by the day, more job losses predicted in the new year, we are in an emergency situation.

In a crisis you need to pull all parties together and listen to solutions. They may not make you look good but smarter people can get things moving. The truth is you need credibilit­y to build an alliance of can-do people. Notley does not have that credibilit­y nor those types of people in the NDP. Even your buddy Justin Trudeau isn’t listening to your demands. But then again, I’m sure Shannon Phillips has an excuse for that.
