Thursday's letters: Layoffs, service cuts in our future
Premier Jason Kenney listens to Janice MacKinnon, a former Saskatchewan finance minister, and chair of a blue-ribbon panel announced to examine the Alberta government's financial situation. Taken on Tuesday, May 7, 2019, in Edmonton.
Mr. Kenny has been in power for six weeks and has dramatically cut corporate taxes, got rid of carbon tax, told municipalities to give tax breaks for years to new businesses. So the question remains where will we get the money to fund the province, cities and pay for continual global warming disasters like forest fires and droughts.
I have no crystal ball but believe I can foresee the future. His hand-picked blue-ribbon panel that is to report on how to cut government costs will advise (while claiming it is purely non-partisan) to dramatically cut services, cut staff and cut taxes for the wealthy because trickle-down economics will get this province working again.
The truth is Mr. Kenny has no plans but to reward his friends who got him elected and when it all falls apart he will blame Ottawa and Rachel Notley. The next premier will be left with his mess and perhaps, finally, have the guts to bring in a sales tax, until we can find a way to get our oil to tidewater or diversify our economy.
