Which is actually good for our economy. A low dollar significantly increases exports -- this is basic Econ 101 stuff. Yes, it sucks for Canadian consumers and tourists travelling elsewhere, but it's a very good thing for businesses that export their products.

Chretien was pushed HARD by the Reform party, both inside and outside the Ottawa bubble. Preston Manning can take almost full responsibility for the Liberals' responsible fiscal record during the 1990s.

Seriously? The Liberals had a majority for the entire time Manning was involved in federal politics. They were free to set any fiscal agenda they wanted, regardless of any pressure from the Reform party.
