This helps to paint the picture Ignatieff was talking about regarding Harper.

Wow, a well balanced article there

Its rich that Slate published the article. That they hate our "polarized" parties - isnt that like the American banker calling the Canadian banker greedy. I also love how they blame Canada for going into deficit - hello, it was greedy American and British bankers who forced this global recession on us with there incessent greed and complete lack of oversight by a US government so split along party lines you could actually draw a map. Oh yah, PS to our American bretheren - stick the "your nice" comment and shove it up your bankrupt a$$.

Also, the Libs had plenty of time to ratify Kyoto and make it into law, they didnt. As with many politicians they make the press announcement and leave the heavy lifting to others.
