Even though our public services and infrastructure are under threat from irresponsible Conservative and Liberal management, we have an opportunity to change direction, and to make this a province that serves as an example to the rest of Canada and to the rest of the world. [...] An NDP voice in the Legislature is the only way to make sure the Conservatives and Liberals don’t try to cut health and education. [...] In addition to protecting the jobs of front-line health and education workers, the NDP will work to make our health and education systems more efficient and focused on the needs of patients and students, not well-paid private consultants. [...] The NDP will address the structural problems in our economy honestly, openly, and will involve the people of the province in a structured discussion that will lead to firm decisions on the direction we should take. [...] But these aren’t solutions; the Conservatives and Liberals are passing the costs from the province to the municipalities.
