maplesyrup Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Harper stated last week to Martin: Hold election in Fall As a result: 1 - lets Martin off hook for spring election, as Martin has no mandate to govern. 2 - exhibits fear, lack of confidence NDPs Jack Layton had best approach: BRING IT ON Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maplesyrup Posted March 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Are we going to get any substantive posts from maplesyrup any time soon? Are the Cons only able to able to attack their opponents and not defend their positions? I wish they would devise some astute and popular policies, to help keep Liberals to a minority.

willy Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 How about good government as a policy? As for the fall election, it is two fold. One, we will see the extent of the scandals by then and be able to judge the Liberals on that record. Right now the jury is out. Second, in a 150 days we have merged two parties and elected a leader and currently have the most candidates nominated of any party but the Conservatives will mount a better campaign if they have a couple of months to sort out all the change. The Conservatives are ready to go. But unlike Stockwell they will not goat the government into another ridiculously early election, which just catch the opposition ill prepared. Would you like a list of there positions that I can defend? You won’t like them but I trust they will be the best for the country and I can defend them. Adequate funding for education and health care to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maplesyrup Posted March 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 I hope we can hold the Liberals to a minority government. For that to happen the Cons have to get their act together. I am pulling for you guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chater Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Harper doesn't know what hes doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pulling for you guys. No you're not. You're doing everything you can to throw eggs at this new party. Your act is way too obvious. You're more prone to NDP hit-pieces than to any serious discusion of Canadian politics, in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Posted March 30, 2004 Report Share Posted March 30, 2004 Harper doesn't know what hes doing. Can you please explain that one? Or are you now also prone to hit-pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August1991 Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 Some of you guys seem Tory types. Here's my question: Deep down, all things considered, do you think it would be better for the Tories if there were a Spring Election? IOW, is Harper playing coy? Follow-up: Does Harper hate calling himself a "Tory"? PS. Start a new thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
