You sure he'll be cutting off essential services employees. My wife and I live in Alberta. She is a nurse. She has more managers and admins at her hospital than nurses. Even she says a huge amount of fat can be easily trimmed from that area. I imagine it's the same across all public sector. I'd sooner see 10 admins laid off for more nurses to be brought on. Certainly not devastating to any economy to cut out wastes. I also know several government employees who say waste is rampant here. Expenses blown way out of proportion. Cheaters everywhere using personal trips as business expenses etc. If you think keeping this is good for an economy I'd suggest your in for a rude awakening when bills finally have to be paid.
