Which he only did because the NDP, Bloc and Liberals threatened to topple his minority if he didn't. His initial plan was similar to the US and was a pure austerity measure, which would have done unbelievable damage.
Harper's best quality was his desperate political instinct to survive. If he wasn't the parliamentary equivalent of a #### roach, Canada would have been in deep ####.
