Tax-cuts don't do enough to fix all of the problems in our society, end of story. (I should say that I like more money as much as the next guy, but its the best of everything).
Also, MYK are you saying that the Conservatives won't poll Toronto or Vancouver because they are pretty much shot there anyway?

Are you saying that Joe Citizen isn't responsible enough to spend his/her own money and that somehow government could do a better job?
Trudeau et al certainly proved you wrong, didn't they?
Of course, we need a minimal welfare state to help those who fall through the cracks and get back on their feet again. But, Canadians by and large should be allowed to spend their money how they want to, not have it wasted away on a plethora of special interest budget programs.
