Stephen Harper: Tory Convention in Calgary

[Transoxthraxia]

New Democrats will win. They will ride in on Jack Layton's legacy but may form a minority government with the Liberals.

haha

[NorthEast Alliance]

This probably isn't what he's thinking about, but from what I know of the Trans-Pacific Partnership, not much good can come out of it. Especially since Harper loves keeping important things concealed until they're ready to be ratified.

No..... I was referring to the new North American security perimeter. Last time I checked my affairs are not the business of the NSA, which they will be if this deal goes through.

So edgy, the same argument " lulz guez the NSA is spying on us this is totally a new thing" Your blatant conspiracy theories are at best laughable and at worst scary.

Leaving the Pacific coast practically defenceless while spending hundreds of millions on a naval station in low-risk Nunavut
Screw climate change!
Appointing a small army of Tory staffers to the Senate
Proroguing Parliament over controversies... twice (Leftist Grand Coalition, 2008; Afghan Detainees Affair, 2010)
Withholding the true cost of the Lightning from public view
Letting this criminal in charge of CSIS' oversight committee
Patents > AIDS drugs for disadvantaged Africans
Failing promise to replace the WWII rifles used by the Arctic Rangers in time
Abolishing the long-form census for a nonexistent reason

[Seitonjin]

Fixed your quote there.

Anyways, Liberals are okay... But the ones in Ontario fucked us over big time. As a student, I was not impressed with stupid McGuinty.

1.1 billion dollars wasted, I still can not believe it.

I know.

They made bloody cuts to the education system here. Who the fuck does that? But it could've been worse. I mean, Ontario's Conservatives aren't favorable.

haha

I'm guessing your of the persuasion the Conservatives will retain government?

[NorthEast Alliance]

It wasn't even your money, how do you think we feel?

Oh I know I have several friends in Ontario and they are pissed off. They want action right now.

Unless Harper can pull another prorogation magic trick, which he probably would once the word "coalition" gets dropped.

Did Canada have a bad experience with the last coalition government?

Yeah well, Wynne is doing a far better job than that clown Tim Hudak would be doing.

No it was actually working. It just had stupid people, who couldn't even admit they agreed on anything, even when they did, in charge of it.

True.

Still could be better.

We need NDP in power in Ontario. Or something. Bleh politics here is boring either way.

[Thurask]

We need NDP in power in Ontario.

And I think Bob Rae put an end to that notion for the time being.

I would not go so far so say that, she is very inefficient as a leader and is basically a continuation of a long line of liberal screw-ups in Ontario.

[Ainin]

An example of such craziness would be?

No, just in general. They want to abolish the Senate. I know that you and most others probably agree with that, but I don't for personal reasons I don't want to speak of. Mulcair is crazy too, I liked Layton. I think Trudeau is the best candidate right now.

It's not crazy to want to abolish an unelected and unaccountable upper house that is nothing but puppet storage for the government.

Oh joy another Harper thread. Let me just say this he's fried and if he does win again I'd ask for a recount.

Agreed. Streamline the gov't please.

Remember their will be 338 seats in the next election to deal with Alberta's growing population. I am glad because Alberta is very important for Canada's economy.

The opposition tried to make a coalition and bring down the government, but Harper just went lolnope and prorogued parliament.

It would not work in a thousand years the Liberals and the NDP are way to different to form a coalition together. If they did that in the next election the NDP would dominate the Liberals and the Liberals rising star Justin will object to that no doubt.

[Greater Istanistan]

The Senate should be chopped.

As for all you gas plant people, it's like you deliberately blank out whenever I say "procurement scandal".

Does a jump in price from 9 billion when first promised to 45 billion now with minimal improvements and little benefit to Canadian industry mean nothing to you?

[Thurask]

I think they'll still have the same percentage of overall seats, though.
