   He spends it on court cases, appeals and ads attacking anyone who opposes his   
   agenda.  And this is where he takes the money from... increased tuition fees   
   for colleges & universities; lower wages for public service employees; and   
   pay-for-medical-care    
   through private facilities.   
      
   Wow. Is that 'working for the average Albertan', or what?

   MacKinnon panel urges legislated salaries for public sector workers, higher   
   tuitions   
      
   Cut operating budget by $600M a year and 'substantially reduce' capital   
   spending, panel says   
      
   The six-person panel, led by former Saskatchewan finance minister Janice   
   MacKinnon, was asked in May by Premier Jason Kenney to look at ways to get   
   Alberta's finances under control. The report was delivered to the United   
   Conservative Party government in    
   mid-August.   
      
   The blue ribbon panel's report on Alberta's finances is recommending salaries   
   for public sector workers be legislated, private clinics be allowed to perform   
   day procedures and that the freeze on post-secondary tuition be ended.   
      
   The panel concluded that Alberta's teachers, physicians and nurses are better   
   compensated than their colleagues in British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec.   
      
   Cut education spending, pay MDs less   
      
   The report says legislated salary levels can be used in "exceptional   
   circumstances." MacKinnon says Alberta's current situation applies.
