Now That's Bold





Stating the obvious:




"We won't support it."

Hmmm, the NDP had better get their story straight. I only caught a bit of Mike Duffy Live where Peggy Nash spent her time saying that the Lib's are holding this up in the Senate and it should go forward.

Even after Taber noted that it was out of the Senate, she (Nash), said the same thing.

Where do these people live? How do we in the public know more (facts) than they do?

Shrewd they, (the Con's) are. Can't wait to see Baird the Red, blow up in QP.

"Baird the Red"

I like it!

the Conservatives are just like the other parties

Very, very true. I take offense when people attempt to group collective motivations by political party. "Liberals are corrupt" "Conservatives are war mongers" "Dippers are naive". Whatever. Every party in Canada has good and bad apples and smart and stupid people, in approximately the same proportion.

... sounds like a confession to me.

Elections Canada should refuse to refund their $/vote until they turn over their books - all of them.

Opposition party should hold the CPoC accountable.

Voters know that politicans break promises and don't always live up to expectations. Parties can exploit the "kick the bums out" mentality that emerges, but ultimately they set themselves to look foolish when they fall from their self-prescribed pedestal.

Whew! Good thing Canada has three (maybe two) opposition parties to slow this baby down, before it gets to the unelected senate, where it will wither on the vine at least until after the Lib leadership selection.
Do you think other Canadians are getting tired of late Friday bombshells and manna from heaven while the House is out? Or is it just me?

Does appear a trend is developing, ala the Bush administration. The timing gives even more aroma to the mixture.

Weren't the Libs attacking PMSH on the contribution limit being set too low because convention fees are $995 ??
So if convention fees (that cover costs) are not a party contribution, doesn't that appease the Libs?

Canadian taxpayers will certainly like the change.

Hey, Wilson666 why don't you get your buddies to turn over the books like Election Canada asked, so we can really see where the fecal matter sits?
You Cons sure like to put up a funny definition of 'accountability'...
