That would be generally consistent with Harper's disregard for the public service and his pattern of ideological decision making (lack of evidence or expertise be damned).

"We've sold out our oil and gas sector to China. I'll never allow that." - Thomas Mulcair.

He literally has no idea what he's talking about. Scary to think that he could be making important decisions about our economy.

Lets all take a break from learning about CPC candidates saying stupid and bigoted things and turn our focus to CPC candidates doing illegal and illicit things!

Bonus: A Liberal MP is probably next for shady things involving the same people!

Yeah no kidding. The man is a lunatic and his commercials are not genuine. If anything it seems Nexen sold China a bunch of garbage.

I posted this weeks ago when a guy came forward and noticed his credit card was charged with a donation to the CPC. It turned out that a 3rd party donation solicitor used to collect for the Liberals and switched allegiance to the CPC, but never informed the people donating that he was now collecting for a different party.

I think a lot of NDP support has diminished for this reason. There are nice ideas in what they're talking about, and I think they are doable and I support a lot of them, but they just don't seem to have an idea of how to implement them. And that's not good.

At least the LPC is being truthful about deficit spending.

Did you post an article or first hand info? If the latter, has anything else started to come of this locally as far as you know?

I don't know. It was just the CBC report from when the allegations were first made.

Glad to see it is getting more attention now. It's a serious issue if it ends up being true.

It was right around the same time that it came out that the CPC was using malware to collect Facebook "likes".

Completely missed both of these. Yikes.

LOL! What business does Goodyear have being on that panel? I guess about as much business as he had being Minister of Science and Technology. Yet another brilliant Harper appointee.

EDIT: Leslie's credentials aren't great either, but at least she's been heavily involved in climate change discussions.

It is an inspiring message. Anyone can be a college drop-out with no credentials and land a sweet gig leading an entire country's policies on science and technology!

So talking a lot about something makes one credible?

Well then, apparently my ex wife was in fact an expert.

Should have just listened to her. Hindsight is 20/20

No, sorry, I kind of understated that. It looks like she's actually attended quite a few panels and conferences on climate change. So, while I still an sceptical of her scientific credentials, it does appear as if she's actively trying to obtain knowledge on the subject.

Anyone see the latest NDP ad? Doesn't even mention Harper and goes right after Trudeau. I think the NDP know they're done and are now just trying to cling to opposition status.

That's the problem the NDP have had this campaign, they spent too much time going after Trudeau when they should of been attacking Harper.

It's a turn off. They should be going after the party in power.
