Liberal leader Shawn Graham is turning aside suggestions the two main line parties are ignoring the state of provincial finances.
In response to a CHSJ News question -- Graham says his campaign promises are part of a greater plan to get back to a balanced budget position by 2014.
The Liberal leader says his party's plan matches the time frame set out by the federal Conservative government to return to balanced budgets.
And Graham is challenging Conservative leader David Alward to put a number to his job creation plan -- he says the lack of a hard goal indicates the Conservatives don't really have a job creation plan.
