In this election, it appears that the Liberals and PCs have switched positions with the Liberals being the more fiscally conservative. It is the financial platform of the NDP which is most striking in its irrationality - $1 billion of new spending paid for by increasing the provincial debt. Considering that the Nova Scotia debt is already $15 billion and that we have an aging population of less than $1 million, such a policy risks future bankruptcy. In my view, our provincial NDP have lost all credibility for sound financial management.
