    The worst part about this whole mess....

    It doesn't matter how Harper acts. He could create a private Health Care act, revoke pensions, raise taxes, ruin our economy even more than he already has.... and so on and so on.... and the Conservatives will STILL have no trouble getting enough votes to either win next time, or at least be the official opposition. This is simply because people in this country who lean to the right have no other option when it comes to election time.

    For example, most of the people (hillbillies) in my province actually think that the Cons are better for the economy. Whether they are or not is a complex issue, but these people don't have the slightest idea about how the economy works. They just buy into the brand.

    • Your last paragraph is extra true. The economy hasn't been that good for Harper's run so far.Jaline
    • Much of the credit belongs to Paul Martin anyway. Harper wanted to deregulate the banks!i_monk
    • as if the left had a better clue. C'mon man, most people on both sides vote blindly.zarkonite
