A balanced budget the Liberals state-what a joke.

How can anyone call a budget "balanced" when in order to do so there was more than $327 million in tax increases and also the selling off of our assets-valuable land that this party refers to as 'government lands.' It is not the government's, it is ours-the taxpayers.

This is land that we will never be able to buy back and will not have it to sell for possible unforeseen necessities, because it was used as Liberal bailout money.

We were told by the current government that the election was between a high-spending NDP party and a low-spending private enterprise Liberal party. This was a lie, a lie they paid for us to hear with our own money.

They continue to spread their myths with expensive television ads. The Liberals obviously mismanaged money so badly that they had to have a fire sale-selling off our valuable land plus increasing taxes.

I do not want these incompetents managing my money.
