Ricki Bobbi Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 From John Ibbitson's column in today's Globe. (Sorry no link, from the pay site.) The Tories calculate that few investors will be seriously affected, most losses will be recovered over time, and the Conservative brand as the party of tax cuts for the middle class won't take a permanent hit. Quote Dion is a verbose, mild-mannered academic with a shaky grasp of English who seems unfit to chair a university department, much less lead a country. Randall Denley, Ottawa Citizen
Figleaf Posted November 3, 2006 Report Posted November 3, 2006 This is the second day in a row that Ibbitson has shared this highly speculative prognostication. Such urgent reassurance begins to look like wishful thinking, and compromises his already dubious objectivity. Quote

Well if "The Tories calculate..." it, it must be true. As I recall, when Mulroney introduced the GST, he calculated that it wouldn't hurt the party in the long run. Quote
