Heh heh... Harper and Duceppe have a close relationship that will not benefit national unity...
I wonder if they've got a secret hidden agenda together that plans to bust up Canada. They are concocting some kind of plan to get Harper in power so that hte people of Quebec separate.
Sounds like a great plan for Duceppe...
As for Harper, I doubt he (or anyone for that matter) wants to be the PM during the separatioin of a province.
Regarding the comment about the Cons being the first ones to launch the attack, I disagree from an admittedly so-so informed viewpoint.
The cons' campaign from last election was platform oriented. They may not have had their platfor very well figured out, but that is how they ran the campaign. The Libs on the other hand, rand a smear campaign against the cons. They said little about what they would do or not do, and focussed on telling Canada why a vote for the cons was a bad vote. American style politics. Blech...
With this campaign, the cons realized that they can make no headway in central Canada unless they hawk their platform and also point out why the mistakes of hte Libs. And yeah, they did their share of this in the last election, but just not enough (I suppose).
Unfortunately for the Libs, their leader is nowhere close to the leader that Cretien was. Martin looks like a boy lost in the woods when he's confronted by a mic.
Martin is reaching into Teflon Jean's bag o' tricks, but just not using htem properly. He's got more ammo than Jean ever had, gay marriage, the CA's stance on the Iraq war, gay marriage, the cons' "fondness for Bush", gay marriage...
Well, I'm glad that hte Libs' armour has finally been dented. Change is soooo necessary. And Martin is just not PM material anyway.
Never thought I'd ever like Chretien more than Martin, but Chretien at least had a nutsack.
The funny thing about all this is how the comparison to Alberta politics. Fukkin Ralph. That guy needs to go. Giving raises a couple weeks after relection, running a campaign of "What? What you want? You want content? Look at our track record....."
Why not just flip the bird to Alberta, Ralph? You're only this popular because the Liberal Party of Alberta hasen't decided to change their name.
