    Harper took $2b from EI and $1.1b from VA to balance the budget and present a "surplus". Doesn't get us out of a recession or fix his shitty record of deficits and job loss, but hey, it gives Con voters something to post on Facebook.

    • the EI surplus is old news (http://fw.to/IgqRc3... - what's VA?spot13
    • In any case, an EI surplus means people are working, how else can you interpret an EI surplus?spot13
    • We're in recession, EI shouldn't be pilfered to prop up the government.
      VA = Veterans Affairs.

    • Harper closed something like 11 VA offices, so of course there's a "surplus" there.i_monk
