Ha ha, you rightwingers crack me up. If you're not whining and complaining about something, you're throwing insults.

But in the meantime, they'll find a way to blame it on the NEP and Trudeau.

Ah, the good ol' economic theory of competition in action. A perfect example of the best service offered at the lowest price.

They aren't the only nuts. This thread should be re-titled "Rightwingers are losing control". Have you seen some of those wacko threads? It's as if GWB never existed.

We've been spoiled that in the past six years, there have been relative labour-employer peace. Prior to this period, it was almost like a new strike or labour action every month for eight years from almost every sector you can think of. That's the difference between a government set on war and one that is not.

Don't count on it. There were many things we assumed wouldn't be done but he did it anyways. 1) fixed-term election date broken; 2) ignored the will of parliament at least three times; 3) appointed Senators while parliament was prorogued; 4) appointed Senators; 5) had MP cross the floor to his side and allowed him to keep his seat; 6) turned a surplus into a deficit before the recession even started the list goes on and on. I have no idea what he will pull over the summer. It's a time when he can get unchallenged press time with each announcement that the other parties can't match.

You are confusing him with somebody else. George Bush is no longer President.

I think it should be reformed to be the style of an inquiry or a Royal Commission c/w judge and punishable by law.

We have a new coalition, folks. And this time Harper isn't screaming "undemocratic."

Apparantly the fan-base is not an important factor to the NHL. They'd rather lose money in the desert. The altenate would be to move the rest of the Canadian six down south.

Wouldn't he be eligible to collect an MP's pension?

Actually, I've noticed a lot of tendencies by conservatives to "attack the messenger" when a discussion isn't going his way.

Don't be so surprised. More ironic things have happened in his government.

Tom Flanagan doesn't think much of Harper. Harper's a flip-flop who doesn't stand for anything anymore except hanging on to power.

Nova Scotia needs an NHL hockey team!!

You forgot to list conservatives.

It was his economic statement last November, more ideological than economic, that was the catalyst for the coalition. Harper's never been the same since. Imagine that - Liberal loser Dion ends up getting the better of tough-guy Harper.

Or that upstanding Conservative Prime Minister saying one thing one day and something else the next.

That's true, conservatives are always judged at a lower standard. Look what happened when Obama won. And look at the descending standards since Harper won.

Count your blessings we don't have a PC government.

Camera crews should follow all politicians and their aides like they do during reality shows.

Best of one (game). Winner take all. The entire playoffs should be the best of one.

Hey, somebody's doing the same thing at the Federal level and he just praised himself for it yesterday.

Take a look down south (and in the US forums at this website). Obama inherited the mess but the Republicans are taking every opportunity to blame him for everything.
