Wrong question in my opinion! No sense in attacking the current PM for adjustments made in order to keep Canada on top of the WORLD..... The question that should be asked is.....How would a Liberal/NDP government performed during the last 8yrs considering how US/Europe/China has clearly either been in recession or on the verge of a recession? I'm of the opinion that Mr. Harper as an economist understands that it's better for the government to run deficits and increase debt rather than choke off the economy with higher taxes....After all the government has minimal revenue streams other then increasing taxes....We're overly burdened by taxes thanks to the Liberals....sooner or later our pockets have less spare change to spend in the local economies. Think about how increasing taxes to offset deficits is good for our economy.....it's not good whatsoever.....Mr. Harper will have to continue cutting Government fat and lowering taxes until the global economies get back on track.... US (Obama) should have followed Harpers lead on supporting the US economy with increased infrastructure spending which would have created good quality paying jobs rather then support the large corporations with bailouts..... Harper increased infrastucture spending which was a positive for construction industry.....Good money spent.... If you want to pay more taxes and lower your take home pay then vote Liberal or NDP....
