Great article. My question, or thoughts, regards our media. Assuming PP does make changes will our media immediately pounce and villify those changes simply because they can? Unfortunately media do drive opinions. Most of us don't dig deep, a remark I likely resemble.

I fear there’s no desire among the populace to take the pain that has to come, and zero chance any politician will campaign on what needs to be done.

The greatest example of that was Ralph Klein in 1992; Alberta voters knew exactly what he planned and he followed through.

Imagine the CPC telling us now that massive cuts to public service and government spending would be enacted immediately upon taking office. Ain’t happening, EVER.

But it needs to.
