What exact same thing did Harper do? What "deal" did he make with the Bloc? The Bloc were already voting against the budget (and have at EVERY vote), Harper didn't have to "pay" them in any way shape or form to change their votes. So what deal was there? What did the Bloc get in return? Nothing.
But they DID from Martin.

What "deal" did Martin make? He gave them a written guarantee that he'd bring a vote on a bill he was going to bring a vote for anyway. He gave them nothing new...there were no concessions to Bloc demands, nothing.
Yes, they voted together on a motion. And so did the Conservatives and the Bloc last month (and even again last night on C-48). So for Harper to accuse the Liberals of allying with separatists is the height of hypocrisy.
