Yes indeed, the sore losers will NOT acknowledge that Canada is doing MUCH better than most of the developed world. "It's not the Conservatives that are doing this" they will claim. Of course it isn't their policies that are doing this, it's really a magical trick!
They will do anything, ANYTHING, to avoid reality.
Actually the Cons haven't been in power long enough for their policies to have a strong affect on anything. It takes years for government policies to move a nation in a different direction. The strongest contribution the Cons have made to the Canadian economy in the last few years has been to actually not do anything to disrupt systems and trends that were already in place. However, cheer up. There is still lots of time for the Harper government to do something really stupid.
