How old are you? You sound like my grandmother: "$200,000 for a house? We only paid $1200 for ours brand new, and we paid CASH dammit!". Guess what, everything costs more. Everyone makes more too, and everyone pays more taxes. You will always end up spending more. As time goes by more, and more, and more. What MATTERS, is how much you're spending in relation to your assets.

That funny part about this is, if Harper signed on for that particular clause, the very same people would be crying foul about him selling out our sovereignty, moving towards the one-world-government, crying about Bilderberg, etc, etc. Harper is right now doing the very thing you would be insisting he'd do if there was even a hint he was leaning the other way.

LOL @ Waldo! "Where's the warming?" "Um, it's hiding in the ocean! Yeah, that's it!" I love the weasel words "may", "might", etc. In other words, just like surface warming, the alarmists are flat out making it up.

Even CBC couldn't torque the story enough to point the finger at the CPC: http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/inside-politics-blog/2013/05/for-the-record-federal-court-ruling-on-robocalls-and-electoral-fraud.html Here's the OPINION part: The calls, that he already ruled there was no hard evidence they even happened, MOST LIKELY were sourced from CIMS. That is an opinion, not a ruling. No actual link to CIMS was presented, nor was any judged to have happened. (u-lines are mine)

Sure: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/federal-ruling-dismisses-robo-call-appeal-clears-tories/article12121319/?cmpid=rss1&utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

Council of Canadians is a far Left-wing activist group.

He said he THINKS that it was likely. That's his personal political opinion, not a finding of fact. The reality is, he had no evidence of the sort. If he had a shred of evidence, the judgement would have been very different. A better question is, where are these people whose votes were suppressed? Ten of thousands of them supposedly existed, according to the CBC and the opposition, but the judge couldn't find a single one. Not ONE?

"That's per request" CBC reporter just admitted that they get their questions pre-approved by the LPC.

If they want to get rid of Harper, VERY stupid.

That's some hilarious spin in that story. The judgement HAS been talked about, and reported on most news sites. Contrary to the Council of Canadians claim, it is THEIR case that was defeated, as the judge found no evidence that any member, volunteer, or employed third party with any connection to he CPC had any role in any fraud of any sort. They also failed to find a single Canadian who was prevented from voting.

Completely wrong. Harper is one of the best leaders this country has ever seen. Harper himself never wanted the power, and probably doesn't want it now. He's reluctantly taken on the job because this country needs what he has to offer. Whether we recognize it or not, we are all very fortunate to have him as a leader right now.

I've never been more proud of a Canadian leader. Best Prime Minister in over 50 years. Best leader in the world right now.

Exactly what I mean... still waiting for an actual scandal.

You pay charities, you don't charge them. Taking money from a charity to speak is a pure scumbag move. That he even asked for that money in the first place makes him AT BEST a jerk. That he didn't at least immediately turn around and donate it back to the charity (opportunistically getting a tax receipt for the charitable donation), is beyond the pale.

Still waiting for something that actually is a scandal.

There's nothing wrong with RCAF colours. That's why the plane was painted with them.

Sheer absolutely did the right thing in that regard. It's EC's Maynard who is acting illegally in attempting to force Glover to make false expense claims instead of the factual ones she's standing by. Maynard is just lucky they haven't already fired his biased Liberal ass.

Duffy was the only one to pay it back, that makes his transgression far less of an issue, not more. Who helped him pay it back is totally irrelevant, what matters is he did the right thing, and the others are refusing to even acknowledge that they even did anything wrong!

You young pups don't know nothin'. When I started driving, it was 30c/litre!

..Cuba, Czech Republic, Australia, Iceland, Russia, and (until the Liberals decided to change it), Canada.

Hudson, your chart didn't even address what I said in any way. It sure didn't refute my point. As CPCFTW pointed out, you're posting charts about debt, not deficit. Harpers' current annual deficit is 1.4% of GDP and shrinking. The "worst-list" goes as follows: Harper's worst deficit was 3.6% of GDP In 2009, right when the big stimulus package was rolled out. Chretien's worst deficit was 5.3% of GDP. He also posted years of 4.8%, and 3.7% Mulroney's worst deficit was 8.3% of GDP. Trudeau's worst deficit was 7.9% of GDP. You have to go back fifty years to find a PM who served a full term who didn't post a worse deficit than Harper (Pearson, 1963, 2.5%) http://www.cbc.ca/news/interactives/canada-deficit/debt.html

A lot of people argued as such at the time. All previously used and proposed flags contained red-white-blue. Well into 1964, the flag was supposed to at least have some blue on the sidebars. The switch to drop blue completely was made quite late in the process. The whole thing was very political, and quite controversial.

Another one I worry about. Should adults be allowed to do that is they want to (either as a buyer or a seller)? Absolutely. A lot more safeguards have to be put in place to avoid exploitation though.

He's either lying, or he doesn't know enough to know what he doesn't know.

It's done all the time. People who have been dead for years get featured in new commercials.
