There seems to be some confusion over the point of the law that Harper brought in regarding fixed election dates. He stated clearly in Victoria during the last campaign that we needed fixed dates in Canada to prevent elections being called for "crass political motives".
If the Conservatives were governing as if they had a majority (which was reported widely in the spring) then where are those comments now? Surely Harper isn't calling this election based on the same crass political motives that he accused others of having?
