I dunno, if I am Layton, I am dancing inside. Even with his support, the Liberals were still pegged at losing the vote. Losing that vote would kill this incredibly socialistic budget that he demanded, rendering Layton's temporary stint as Prime Minister more meaningless than Kim Cambell's was.
But with Stronach, the Libs only need one of those independants to survive the vote, and implement a budget that no truely fiscal conservative would.
The only winner today is Jack Layton and his small band of misfits.

Are we living on different planets?
What on Earth in this budget makes it "incredibly socialistic?"
Incredible socialism is a command economy. Jack simply asked to cancel the tax cuts to the largest corporations in Canada. Corporations which have ALREADY been reaping windfall profits for the past 5 years without the tax cuts.
Read a book on socialism.
