Lastly, the CTF do not advocate 'no taxation' as you imply. The CTF, through their own research, support quite a number of government programs that they believe bring good value for the taxpayer buck.

I don't have a link, but on the radio the day after the budget and alternative budget of the Wildrose the CTF was asked about these. His comment was that while he wouldn't pick directly, that one of the two budgets was balanced and the other was not.

I suppose if you want to nitpick here I'm wrong. They didn't come right out and endorse anyone specifically. Its not exactly hard to draw the line though!
