typical conservative viewpoint: democracy demands that we change.
Too bad it's wrong. If it isn't broken then don't fix it. That's why the Canadian people have voted the liberals to power for so long, they believe they're doing a good job.
As for overlooking "scandal". Yes, I am. Because no matter what party is in power there's going to be a "scandal". I'd rather have the liberals in power and scamming us than the conservatives.
Now, the juiciest part: Harper.
I realise that Harper is the leader of the opposition and his job is to oppose. That's not why I think he's a whiny bitch.
I think he's a whiner because he's been to Ottawa 3 times and quit 3 times because he didn't get his way. He's the kid that doesn't like the way the game is played so he stomps his foot and crys. Then he goes running home to his mom (aka Alberta).
He's proven that he can't emotionally handle Ottawa. When he doesn't win he cries "NO FAIR! DO OVER!". It's pathetic, I wish he would just quit once and for all. He's a horrible leader of the opposition.
His entire party platform is "whatever the liberals want, we don't". That's pathetic politics. Anti-liberal for the sake of it doesn't make for a worthy Leader of the Opp.
Preston Manning knew that and he was highly skilled at challenging the liberals AND presenting solutions rather than just screaming across the isle and being anti-whatever-they-said.
Joe Clark knew this as well. Both of them were very good at working WITH the majority party to make sure that they were serving the interests of their party while still allowing progress to be made.
Harper's whole goal is to bring the governement to a halt. So, lets do that, lets call an election and waste millions just to have the Canadian people to tell us they want Paul Martin as PM again. Great idea.
