conservative policy

Kate over at SDA is more reliable than the state run CBC. A lot easier on the pocketbook as well.

[TOM4CWB]

Burbert,

Your trade marks of fear, intimidation, and deception are noted.

I have a moral obligation to fight for the rights of those yet to come... because those who came in 1881 fought for my family now.

What was the name of the provincial saskatchewan
party that lowered royalty rates to rock bottom
levels?

What was the name of the provincial alberta
government that wanted to increase royalties?

What was the name of the federal government that
has been pumping out record budgets(which means
more government no matter how you spin it)?

What was the name of the federal government that
actually cut spending?

Does anyone want to face up to this?

It is so pathetic how bad some have been snow
balled.

I hear you cotton, In my mind the only fiscal conservative is a smart fellow named Ron Paul who was unsuccesful in his run for the republicans last US election.
More of a libertarian type

The new issue conservatives that we have now are more of the "wink wink nod nod fiscal cons who listen to good lobbyists more than anything.

OK... I bite.]

The 'Conservative' part of PC... is gone... like spending $4b on an upgrader... $2b on Carbon Capture... and that is just phase one.

THese people are proud 'Progressives' and state this openly.

Take this new Progressive Strategy... that I have known about... as a part of bill 36:

The Alberta government announced a plan on Wednesday that would see it set aside two million hectares, or about 20 percent of the province’s oil sands zone, for conservation—and in the process, revoke a number of oil sands leases. Sveinung Svarte, CEO of Athabasca Oil Sands, tells BNN while his company will not be significantly affected by the plan, it could potentially hurt the province’s reputation to international investors.

“Obviously it is wrong to confiscate leases which have been legally sold, it sends a very wrong message to the investor community and business community worldwide,” he says. “Investors worldwide do get scared when leases get confiscated.”

When asked whether Athabasca Oil Sands and other oil companies would seek legal redress in regards to the plan, he says that while it’s too early, “I wouldn’t rule it out.”

Round one... you lose... these are NOT Conservative policies.

Round Two: Who actually approved the Government's budget... each time since the big revolt of Nov/Dec 2008?

The Coalition.

As the Conservative Party of Canada had no option... but to toe the Liberano/ND/Bloc line... what else did you expect? You saw what happened in NOV 08... when PM Harper simply wanted to remove the $1.75/vote subsidy the feds pay... and run a balanced budget.

How short our memories are!

Cotton and Mustard... you fool no-one.

<i>"What was the name of the federal
government that actually cut spending?"</i>

Failing to follow through on the promise to repeal
the GST and balancing the budget with the
subsequent increased taxes, hardly counts as
cutting spending.
Neither does failing to increase spending as
much as they promised in election campaigns.
How many times have they trotted out the
"national daycare program" in their red book of
election promises. (Not that they shouldn't have
rejected such expensive, ill conceived promises,
but not making them in the first place would be
more honest.)
They've brought back cap and trade too,
hopefully that economy destroyer gets shoveled
onto the pile of Liberal broken election promises
as well.

[TOM4CWB]

Farmranger,

How quickly everyone forgot,

The NOV 2008 Budget... Harper delivering on the election promise for a balanced budget.

And the result?

The Coalition went into orbit and said they knew better that the Canadians that voted for the Party with the most seats in parliament... by far... only 12 off a majority.

Mustard... your blame of PM Harper is shallow and hollow.

I wonder what your true motivation is... the CWB 'single desk' perhaps?

[FarmRanger]

Yes Tom, the coalition went into orbit over the
balanced budget, and threatened to bring the
government down if they didn't "stimulate" the
economy.

And now they have the nerve to complain about
the deficit. Coalition sucking and blowing at the
same time. Pray we get a conservative majority
or these keystone cops will form the most
dysfunctional government Canada has ever had
the misfortune of enduring.
