I think your comment here can be viewed as you accusing Harper of lying without reason. Perhaps you should clarify your wording?
No his comment is just plain Bornruff; looking for argument where there was none to begin with.

Lol, you chose to respond to my post and say you disagreed with me, and now you have made two posts complaining about me. It seems like you are the one who wants to bicker.
No Bornruff, I didn't want to bicker. I just said it didn't surprise me. You said it was a surprise to you. But that wasn't enough, it suddenly became a debate for you.
I'll leave it at that.
Flaherty was prescribed steroids for a skin condition known to increase the risk of stoke.
What Is Bullous Pemphigoid? Jim Flaherty's Skin Condition Explained
Prolonged use of steroids increases risk of heart attack. Medical science will either cure you or kill you.
I can't really go on without pointing out that you are still encouraging more bickering.
But anyways, no, this is what you said "I'm guessing he knew. Just like Jack knew." Which is a different statement.
I simply pointed out that from what I know, this does not seem to be the case. There is nothing to indicate that people expected him to die now or anytime soon. At least for me, when I hear that someone has died, if I don't already know, I am often interested in knowing if it was something that the family expected or not, so it seemed worthwhile to try to correct that.
Going out of your way to point out that you thought he was going to die doesn't really seem to add much to a memorial. When you hear that someone had died, is your first thought usually "I called that!".
At Question Period the opposition were tough on him but he stood his ground and came back with quick witted and funny answers.
One of the few Conservatives who had a soul and defended his constituents, his party and his government. True to his family, a diplomat, statesman and a great asset to all Canadians from coast to coast to coast.
I will miss him greatly.
Jim Flaherty R.I.P.
Of course you can't.:smile:
I read the article on Flaherty's skin disease and man I feel even worse for the guy. Sounds as though he was in a great deal of pain.
Imagine the pain and he never showed it once.
Well I have a similar skin condition in my hands that flares up from time to time. It's not eczema, but an infection similar to this. I attribute it to handling fuel, but no one is really sure. I can tell when I get it, it is extremely painful. Also treated with steroids.
