    Yea but… it seems to have kept away a conservative government so it’s probably worth the cost.

      Exactly. Given that this election came down to what, a few dozen ballots, every little bit helped.

      The NDP is one of the few incumbent governments that survived (barely!) an election after this bout of record inflation and whatnot. I don’t think the tax cuts were ideal but people feel the pinch right now and if they hadn’t offered them, I imagine Rustad would be digging us an even deeper hole.
