So, brace yourself for those photos of Stephen Harper at the White House with Barack Obama. And while we're at it, somebody better get the ballot boxes ready too.What? That's kinda scrapping at the bottom of the barrel in my opinion.
Chantal seems to think there needs to be an election because Parliament has nothing to talk about.
The 40th Parliament is all talked out.Uh? Excuse me, Chantal, that's a poor excuse to go to the polls, there is plenty to talk about. How the criminal justice system, the immigration and refugee system,are just two examples of what the government wants to talk about. Canadians want something done on those two issues like yesterday. We are sick and tired of the lax justice system where criminals get off easy and sick and tired of so called refugees and human smugglers taking advantage of us re-the ships from Sri Lanka for instance in which the government is trying to address. Even though chugging along with 69,200 jobs created in January, there is still plenty of work to do on the economy as well. We aren't totally out of the woods yet. So no, this parliament is not talked out. Maybe it's Chantal who can't find anything to talk about.
There is no pressing issue to go into an expensive election right now so why? It would be just plain opportunism for any political party at this juncture to trigger one. So why is the media pushing for one? Is it to boost sales? Is it to try and get rid of the evil Harper government and install their beloved Liberals or coalition in? I don't know but it does seem that it is the media who want the election more so than the politicians. Liberal's have indicated they will vote against the budget,who knows what they'll do when it actually comes time to vote, they flip flop so much and it looks like Jack Layton and the NDP are looking for away to avoid an election
So who knows? I could be wrong but I think Don and Chantal could end up being disappointed in the end.
