I can't find anything about it online.
I guess I goofed (consider it a belated April Fools joke) I took it out of context as part of another news story that I only partially heard............maybe it's time for a hearing aid.
The most refreshing part of both those confessions is, you're both adult enough to admit your errors.
Right on, CDNBear! If only your favourite antagonists (we all know who they are) ever grew up to be adults!
Seriously, just stating a fact.
If you see it as an insult perhaps you need to rethink your political leanings.
Simple, if the market determines the value at $4 then that is what it is.
If the market determines it's $40, then that is what it is.
Getting back to the OP: "Do The Conservatives Deserve Another Chance?"
In our flawed political system a party does not have a chance, unless in majority. We endorse the idiocy that the governing minority government has the confidence of the opposition, unless it comes to the budget.
How idiotic can you get!? When does the opposition EVER have confidence in a minority government?
If the opposition had ANY guts, they would bring the minority government down at EVERY vote.
A party has NO chance, unless it is in majority. Having said that, and having not seeing anything better, I say, that, YES, the Harper Conservatives DO deserve a chance. NOT another chance, just a chance.

The ones (note the plural) who want to buy votes are the pitiful AND pathetic imitations of statesmen, like Ignatieff or Layton. (The treasoneous piece of trash, Duceppe does not count).
Harper trying to buy votes???
It is to laugh.....you have seen Count Iggy's new Program for the Edification and Expansion of the Peasantry, have you not?
Eight point what billion bucks on what?
Mind you, the budget will be balanced......
He has this magic wand thingy you see.... lol

That's what they do.
Try to buy us with our own money, all socialists.
The only clear choice is the libertarians.
We will get out money back and we will choose how it's spent.
End public education and health.
End transfers to the provinces.
Close evey ministry except defense.
End foreign wars and interventions like Lybia.
Sell national parks.
Get the government out of our lives altogether.
That I can definitely get behind. Our public education system hasn't even been able to teach our population how to figure out how to spell Libya even after it's been the focal point of the news for weeks.
According to the latest poll (about 18 hours ago) Harper has votes he could sell, donate, auction. :lol:
You have to excuse the slow learners. :lol:
It's not magic...it costs money to buy jets, and the government loses revenue by lowering corporate taxes. If you understand basic math, you can pay for other things by not buying jets ( or better yet purchasing new jets that are less expensive), and not lowering the corporate tax rate.
Harper has increased spending, and cut taxes. I guess if that's the team you root for, what Iggy proposes would seem like a magic wand...
It's not surprising they are spending more. It just that they are spending it too soon. Spending money that won't be in the coffers for another two - three years is a rotten things to do to Canadians.
If Canadians only knew how wealthy they could be if......

The amendment was drafted in 2007, and was ratified in 2009...despite the vote in the House. The Federal cabinet can ratify these types of amendments, without even having the support of Parliament. The vote was merely symbolic, for Parliament to have their opinion on record with the motion.
The amendment contains a binding arbitration clause, so basically whenever NAFO regulates, we must now comply, whether or not it makes sense in Canada or not.
Essentially this is like having the UN dictate what our regulatory framework looks like...
