Could it be that listening to the opposition parties during proroguing they heard so very good ideas from their own and are changing?? Quote

Mr.Canada Posted March 21, 2010 Report Posted March 21, 2010 These are all very minor issues. Once in a while Canada must do what the majority wants. It's not always about the loudest 2% of our society. Quote "You are scum for insinuating that isn't the case you snake." -William Ashley Canadian Immigration Reform Blog

dizzy Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 The conservatives have become very good liberals. Until they get plurality, their approach will be to produce largely martinesque policies under the guise of social revolution. Quote
Smallc Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Until they get plurality, Do you mean a majority? They already have a plurality. Quote
dizzy Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Do you mean a majority? They already have a plurality. I meant a plurality in the popular vote, within the context of political flavour. Vote splitting in the centre and left have given them power in the same manner afforded to chretien in the 90s, even if these guys can't transform it into a majority government. Quote
Molly Posted March 22, 2010 Report Posted March 22, 2010 Flip-flopping is hardly a new Conservative modus operandi. Remember the horrors of floor crossers... followed by David Emerson's appointment to cabinet? Remember when there would be no unelected senators, or when there would be no deficit? Or when it was important to work with the Bloc... er, have nothing to do with them... er.. can't keep up with that one. Which is it now? "Black = white" is no challenge for this crowd, so long as it's expedient. They are just so apallingly full of horse pucks that it becomes difficult to listen to their spokespeople. (Used car salesmen should take lessons.) And it's getting steadily worse. Quote "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!" — L. Frank Baum "For Conservatives, ministerial responsibility seems to be a temporary and constantly shifting phenomenon," -- Goodale
