Most of the former Prime Ministers had there share of arrogance, but you gotta know when to fold them, especially when you have a minority and there is a grave economic crisis.

Well said Agstar, Harper has no idea how to govern with a minority , he might make a good mp. but definately not prime ministerial material.
Control Control Control the man is f#@#$%$^&^#@
Like I said two months ago , they have blown our surplus budget and are the biggest spending government in recent history. And now they are trying to pass this off as part of the economic slide that has taken place!!
Bullshit there has never been a conservative gov't that knew how to run a calculator -- this one is no different

Mustard,
You can't be serious... this has been all about the LACK of stimulus spending on manufacturing... forestry...
So what are the opps asking for?
Piles of lumber/vehicles... to be stored alongside the already growing inventories of unneeded products $$$Billions of deficit monies wasted... FOR WHAT... another couple of months of...
We need to change what we produce... to make sure we produce what the world NEEDS.
Where anywhere in the economic statement... did Conservatives lack recognition of these principals?
By the way... The Conservative Party members appear NOT to have a position on the funding of federal politics in Canada... or I am sure we would have heard about this during the Policy convention in Winnipeg two weeks ago! Not one policy that members approved in Winnipeg... comes close to creating the firestorm funding of federal politics created.
As CTV said... this defunding debacle has done more to unite the LEFT... than anything else Conservatives have done since being elected in 2006. Like poking the opps in the eyes...
Just like defunding culture projects in Quebec...
NOT SMART POLITICS.

Francisco, yes he might have been in "power" but I said he doesn't know how to "govern" with a minority.
His personality does not lead towards "governance during minority "
This means working together and getting consesus on issues. Kind of stuff he talked about Immediately after being Elected!
Look what is happening south of the border ,Obama is including some republicans in inner circle during this time of crisis. Can you imagine Steve doing this? hell he can hardly bring any of his OWN mps in the circle let alone from another party. Control freaks have a hard time sharing.

If he'd been doing such a terrible job he would have been kicked out a long time ago already. The fact is that he has broken all the records when it comes to running a minority. Historically speaking no one has done a better job of this than Harper.
BTW- working together is a two way street, doing everything the way the opposition parties want is not working together, its capitulation.

STILL WAITING FOR AN ANSWER...

ENGLAND HAS JUST LOWERED THE VAT... LIKE WE DID THE GST.
We in Canada are in the best shape of the G8... and for good reason.
Proper management.
WHAT do the OPPs think they are trying to pull off... a COUP?
WHAT else could you call it?
Teaming up with the BLOCK... to overthrow the Legit gov... to break up Canada...
IS TREASON.
Very few western Canadians will see it any other way.
The separatists in western Canada can't believe their luck...
IS that what you are MUSTARD... a closet SEPARATIST?

Tom what I was trying to say is that there was a huge surplus when Harper first took power a couple of years ago.
He then cut income and raised his expenses Big time ,doing this while the economy was in a growth mode.
Now that we need stimulus, in a recessionary time they know they can't afford to do it cause the cupboard is bare.

By the way I am not a separatist.
And maybe the next time you have a conservative get- together you should try to elect a leader who is less divisive for a democratic country.
Harper would be a Great leader in an undemocratic country

Give Steve a big green army uniform, a green tam, a Mustache and sling a ak47 over his shoulder.
The other mustached duo of Ritz and Anderson could be in charge of the Paramilitary. Making sure any opposition would quietly disappear.
Mr Baird well I'm not sure he could grow a mustache so he might have to use a paste on. Mr. Baird could be the dictators strong man.
Stockwell Day , well he could just go along for the ride...
Sounds like a good movie heh Tom... lol

Not instituting massive spending programs without any regard as to what Obama’s stimulus package will look like makes Harper a dictator? What if Obama abandons the big 3 completely in January and we’ve spent billions on them? It will be like putting a bandaid on a patient with a severed leg. Money wasted where it could have been spent to do some good later.
Harper wants to remove the subsidy of political parties and that makes him a dictator? Forcing taxpayers to fund political parties based on what percentage of votes they received would favour governing parties. The Liberals instituted this when they thought they would remain the “natural governing party” forever. Harper is doing the right thing to remove it, even though it will cost his party the most at this time.
If a political party attains power and does what it says it will do, then count on more than my $1.95 involuntary contribution, otherwise get your hands out of my pockets. I’m sick of politicians voting to give themselves a right to dip into the pork barrel and then telling us that they are entitled to their entitlements. Harper is right to get rid of this entitlement and I’m upset that he caved to the opposition threats of a coup.
This coalition of 2 socialists and a traitor is a power grab designed to overturn the results of the election.
Who are the real dictators?
