I think a better title for this article would be, "What the Liberals will do for money"

I like "Karma in Canadian Politics".

Turf him. Get a Conservative leader with a lick of common sense and statesmanship

[PENATRATOR]

I am guessing Dion is regreting announcing he was stepping down now. It appears sleeping with the enemy (the sepratists) is the only way these jack asses can get power, sad really, this will come back to bite the lefties in the ass, don't mix with the sepratists.

Really? So what do you think of Dion then since he just lost an election and still may become PM. Certainly you don't just save your criticism for Harper?

None of this would ever have happened if Harper hadn't brought forth a deliberately provocative fiscal update that focused more on crushing the opposition than anything else.

Is that why Jack planned this out before the election?

That point seems to be getting ignored.

BS or are you just ignoring what we know the NDP was planning. As Riden has just posted. Sorry that doesn't fly.

I don't care how Harper is taken out, as long as he's gone. He's been hell bent on destroying the wheat board with no regard to the effects of such a move. That issue affects me and my family directly, get it?

The country will still be here and doing fine next year and hopefully Harpers' replacement won't be such a single minded idiot. All the crying going on here is hardly justified. This asshole of a PM sold out BC forestry and tried to steamroll western farmers. Good ridence.

Just as I thought, you are concerned about you alone. Figures.

Except the Liberals weren't and its complete hypocracy for the cons to cry about the NDP planning on bringing down the CPC when since the moment Martin won in 04 they spent every waking moment trying to bring them dow.

Harper tried to bring in a bill designed to put what he hoped would be such a financial starain on the opposition that he would effectively be able to govern as a majority. He gambled on the Liberals abstaining again and he was wrong.

You guys spent so long bitching about the Liberals abstaining and that abstaining cost them big in the election. They weren't about to start backing down again.

Harper gambled and lost big time and deserves his fate.

Harper had a chance to govern with a minority supported by a party of his choosing but he decided he cared only for grabbing more power.

The fault lies entirely with him.

Yea well me and anybody else who farms wheat and barley west of Manitoba.

Yes, my families livelyhood is important to me. Go figure.

$1:

It appears sleeping with the enemy (the sepratists) is the only way these jack asses can get power,

But, this would have been okay a few years back when Mr. Harper had the same thing in mind?

Then he would have been a "master strategist"?

[JackCoiner]

"It will certainly be a shock to the 74 per cent of Canadians who did not vote Liberal, and the large majority who ranked Mr. Dion by far the least popular leader, to discover that he has somehow managed to become prime minister."

Conservatives are getting what they deserve, if they had planted feet to floor, lifted their sorry apathetic asses off their easy chairs - they may have provided a majority for the party. Maybe if the GG allows a dissolution of parliament, they (we) will get a second chance to provide that majority.

Seems a foolish and bitter defeat when the 'loser becomes the winner and the winner becomes the loser', it has resounding echoes of the 2000 US election, 'democratic' leadership by conspiracy.
