I can understand the Conservatives wanting to make this a plutocracy. I can even understand the members of this forum wanting a plutocracy. I just believe that it is bad for Canada.

Yeah, I am quite certain that the Chretien Liberals had the best interests of Canadians at heart. It had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that at the time, they benefited far more than anyone else.
