Conservative leader David Alward is refusing to get caught up in a numbers game on job creation plans.
Liberal leader Shawn Graham has challenged Alward to put a number on his plan to create more jobs — but — in response to a CHSJ News question — Alward says Graham has failed on the job creation front.
He says Graham committed to creating 25-thousand jobs in his first state of the province address and he has fallen miserably short over his current mandate.
Alward says people are tired of politicians making those kinds of commitments — he says his party has a number of plans in its platform to promote new business growth in the province.
