Ei reforms

[Ron in Regina]

It's time for an election and when the Conservatives lose they need a new leader because Harper is starting to get a conscience and this is a no-no in the Reform/Conservative party

Time for another Federal Election? I wouldn't hold your breath unless you
can hold it for at least 12-15months....or longer.8O

Canadians will not see an election with the Bloc Quebecois working with Harper in unsaid terms. However actions speak louder then words..

One has to wonder who is the traitor now and what consequences this will bring..

Conservative insiders say their game plan is to avoid an election during this year's recession by getting support from the Bloc and NDP on confidence votes, then delaying the federal budget until March while Canada hosts the Winter Olympics.

They hope the recession will be over by then so that they might campaign amid an improving economy -- instead of the current daily headlines about job cuts and falling financial indicators.

Harper responded to that by saying he would not make "a pact or arrangement" with the Bloc -- a scenario no one has raised.

"I'm reading some stories that we're cooking up a deal with the NDP or Bloc, or the NDP or Bloc are cooking up a deal with us," he said.

"I'm not sure who's saying what over here. ... As I say, it's important for parties to indicate what they stand for and to try and find common ground."

A far more likely scenario is one that transpired this week in Parliament, where the Conservatives surprised observers by voting for a non-binding Bloc motion that demanded a tax-harmonization deal for Quebec. They had previously expressed opposition to the Bloc's demand.

Feat would be the word. lol
Of the available parties/ leaders therof, none would be the answer. Politics is called "politics" for a reason.

: Merriam-Webster

The intent is to have the power, not to do any good for Canaduans.

I kind of meant it was an impossible feat because of foot in mouth and no feet to stand on!!:lol::lol:

An election will only be called when the Bloc, NDP, & Liberals can
all get onto the same page and agree to toss the Conservatives....

The Liberals are doing well in the polls (specifically in Quebec and at
the Bloc's expense)...so the NDP & Bloc aren't going to side with
the Liberals to call an election...

It sounds like the Liberal Party is somehow out of debt...but being
out of debt, and having a full piggy-bank to run a national election
campaign are two very different things.

I'm guessing at least 12-15 months...if not longer, and the current
attack adds on the tube are the Conservatives feeling things out due
to the current polls and the size of their wallet compared to the other
parties at this point...to see who'll match adds with their very recent
status of not being in debt. That's my guesses.
