They can't use the 'and then the need arose later' claim, because they haven't given other options the chance. Said they wouldn't do it, and yet already have one in place before the government can do anything to cause it. For all the 'conservatives have a hidden agenda' fearmongering the liberals do, they are the only ones who seem to have one. |
The quoted article has Dion balking at the notion of a coalition with the NDP on the basis that the NDP's proposed business tax would be harmful to the economy:
Quote:
Mr. Dion, speaking after an address to a Vancouver-area business crowd today, said he could not work with Mr. Layton in this way because the NDP leader wants to hike taxes on business.
“We cannot have a coalition with a party that has a platform that would be damaging for the economy. Period,” the Liberal leader said.

Dion won't be a hypocric or liar so long as the NDP has changed that policy.
