What a rough day its been for Big Daddy. Good thing too because he sure deserves it. This whole partisan game of political chicken and kneecapping should be recognized for what it is and we should allow the opposition to take over. Why? Simple
Stephen Harper and Company have not given one concrete action or implication that they are doing anything. Go ahead google it and you’ll find out that Canada is getting criticized for doing the opposite. Now is not the time for risky actions Mr Harper and YOU are risky.
Stephen Harper was elected on leadership and the merit of being a steady hand on the tiller. To day he has not shown any evidence of either being less than transparent and preferring ideology until its too late.
The RB Bennett/Stephen Harper comparisons are getting too rich. RB Bennett hurt this country by sticking to free market ideology far too long. When he announced his stimulus package it was too late to help most Canadians. Why do we want to repeat history? Is Stephen Harper going to go on the national media and lament the death of the free market like Bennett did in the 30’s?
Noone trusts Jim Flaherty. I dont need to prove this, just go and ask any Canadian who is affected by the economic crisis.
The government isnt doing its job and using the threat of an election to hold power. 6 weeks? Really, that’s the best they could do? After 3 whole days of decorum the government is showing that it is too partisan to govern and to blind to see reality.
We need a coalition government. At least we know we wont be ruled by a partisan ideologue like Harper
