SamStranger Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 Layton loves to smear the Tories and Liberals on their history. I agree with comments towaards the Liberals because their true. I dont appreciate him always calling the Conservatives the "do nothing Tories". Lets look back. 1990-1995 a little man known as Bob (Robert) Rae... the NDP Premier of Ontario. He ran the largest deficeits in Ontario History, and it took Mr.Harris a long time to clean it up. Not to mention how much Bob Rae raised taxes. Their was also a premier in B.C who was NDP, ran a defeicit too. Jack Layton thinks his party is the greatest, when in fact their are NO TAX CUTS... just the same old garbage. Tax Cuts are very important to us Mr.Layton, were not all rich like you... We need the Tories to Lower Taxes, clean up government, get tough on crime... and you can put that in Your pipe and smoke it, Jack! Stop looking at the Tories record Layton, look at your own--- its much worst. Quote "They say that lifes a carousel, spinning fast you got to ride it well. The world is full of Kings and Queens who blind your eyes then steal your dreams- it's heaven and hell. And they will tell you black is really white, the moon is just the sun at night, and when you walk in golden halls you get to keep the gold that falls- its heaven and hell" -Ronnie James Dio

Layton isn't rich, he was a university prof before politics and though he's definately well off, never a multi-millionaire type. There are alot of problems with the PROVINCIAL NDP governments, and if you start looking at the PROVINCIAL Conservatives and Liberals, you'll see those two parties have even worse records on some issues then the NDP (crumbling hospitals, schools, ect.) Federally the NDP has been mostly irrelavent and hasn't done alot of harm... or good for that matter. I'm a conservative, but I feel that this kind of defense of our platform by saying Layton's party has flaws just doesn't work. Theres way more dirt on the conservatives than the socialists.

Guest eureka Posted January 16, 2006 Report Posted January 16, 2006 Rae did not run the "largest deficits...." In fact, the Rae government devoted most of its energies for the final 18 months in office to deficit reduction. The part before that was during the worst recession since the Great Depression. The following (Harris) government benefited from the recovery and the deficit reducing iniatives of Rae. It still racked up huge deficits. The Rae strategy was the right one for the times. Harris had it wrong. Quote

If you want to talk about premiers who ran deficits, you can't beat Grant Devine's Conservative govt. in Sasketchewan that ran 10 straight deficits. 10!!!!!! I won't even talk about the scandals and the corruption in that govt. For many, many years consecative Liberal and Conservative govts. ran deficits in Newfoundland. This is a typical anti-NDP ploy that when compared to other Liberal and Conservative provinicial govts over the years falls flat on its face. Clean up govt? Ed Broadbent of the NDP has lead the way on pushing for the cleanup of govt. and even Harper has mentioned him. NDP has proposed some tough crime laws for illegal gun possession and is pushing to also fight the root causes of crime such as fighting poverty. Taxes? Well, the NDP is isn't pushing any new taxes so your argument is misleading. Quote
