If Harper would have adhered to his fixed election promise, we would be having an election right now in any event. Unfortunately, he could not adhere to his own legislation and called an election for narrow, partisan purposes a year ago.

"The Conservatives had set Oct. 19, 2009, as the date for the next federal election. However, the prime minister has recently suggested he is ready to pull the plug on his current minority government."

If anything, Steve and the gang should be happy there is going to be an election, it can get us close to back on schedule with his fixed election date legislation
