After awhile, you're talking real money

Notice how the more remote the party's chances of attaining power, the more costly its campaign promises are:

Tories: $600 million a year

Grits: $3.78 billion

NDP: $23 billion

Greens: $8.6 billion

Okay, the Greens let me down. But there are a few weeks yet to go.
