Dude, you were wrong. There's no shame in that. There is shame in persevering with an opinion that you know to be wrong in the face of evidence to the contrary.
In any case, it's not a surprise--nor is it a big deal. It's just how politics works. Harper isn't somehow magically immune because you voted for his party. |
I have never voted for the Federal Conserative Party in my five years as a member of the voting public. Not once. Never.
Harper approached Martin in '04 to prevent the NDP from securing a coalition, when that fell through, he attempted to topple Parliament, finally succeeding in '05.
Of course, the three parties had to work together to introduce a non-confidence motion, but the talk of the GG exploring alternative means is simply part of our constitutional tradition.
