CPC Hypocrisy at it's finest.

a few gems from Stephen Harper in May 2006:

"Fixed election dates prevent governments from calling snap elections for short-term political advantage...They level the playing field for all parties and the rules are clear for everybody."

"...fixed election dates stop leaders from trying to manipulate the calendar simply for partisan political advantage".

"The only way we can have justice is to have a fixed election date, because an election without a fixed election date is a tremendous advantage for the party in power".

He qualified his desire for fixed election dates by saying that the gov't has to still be able to govern and there are scenarios where calling an election is necessary:

"If the government is defeated, loses confidence, it's obliged by the constitution to hold an election."


while this is the angle he's now playing, it's complete bullshit. The CPC has not been defeated or officially lost the confidence of either the people or parliament. The CPC is even or ahead in the polls, has been able to pass whatever legislation it wanted, and has put through a rather high number of bills during it's time in office. Clearly the CPC has been able to effectively govern according to its agenda.

this election is being called to derail several byelections, to avoid dealing with economic issues that might expose some flaws in the CPC fiscal policy, and to take advantage of the fact that the opposition is not in a strong position to defeat them.

Stephen Harper = a hypocrite and a LIAR.

funny how the same term that was repeatedly thrown at the Liberals is now an apt description for Harper and the CPC themselves.

so, in the midst of an economic downturn, lets spend ~$300 million on an unnecessary election. what a douchebag.

It actually applies to every government so don't act as if the Liberals are somehow saints.

who said the Liberals were saints and what does that have to do with Harper's bullshit election call?

it's well past the time where we should judge the CPC on its own merits (or lack thereof). Stop pointing to what the Liberals did in defense of the CPC's shortcomings.

Harper is circumventing his own fixed election date system for CPC political gain. period.

The Liberals are definately not saints...however...I would vote for them before allowing Harper to run this country further into the ground. In a very short period of time he has been able to run the country into a defecit....which he is now trying to hide by calling an election.

What bothers me even further is you have a man who is trying to promote an image of being a family man....yet during the last election the most love he showed his kids was giving them a handshake.

It will be interesting to see how Harper does when the other parties will be attacking him instead of the focus being on the Liberals. Is it just me or does it look like Harper has dyed his hair white...either that or he got a lot of grey hairs in the last couple weeks.

I think Elisabeth May and the Green party are going to shock a lot of people....they are going to get a lot more votes then previous elections....and if she is given a chance in the debates I think she will really shock people...and take some of the Conservative votes away.

Quebec will be interesting in this election....it sounds like the Quebecers are not supporting the Bloc like previous elections and this could open up a lot of seats to all parties.

No one here wants a majority conservative govt and dion is even more hated than PET...

or how about being able to drive an electric car that you can recharge? That won't ever happen under a Conservative government.

I've heard rumours that Harper has called the election in part due to the effect that an Obama Presidency would have on Canadian voters. ie, it would definitely be a boost to the Liberal Party. I suppose there is some truth in that.

I am generally a centrist with both left leaning and a few right leaning tendencies. As much as I am unhappy with how the Liberals have gone about reforming their party since Chretien left office, I simply cannot vote for the Canadian Alliance Party...because that's exactly what they are. The old Progressive Conservative Party is dead, which is unfortunate, because now Canada's only truly right wing party has its base in the west, where they are less educated, more religious and definitely more "rural". As someone from Ontario, that's not the kind of party I will ever vote for.

So, bring on the minority Torie administration again, where little to nothing is accomplished among all kinds of bitter fighting in Parliament. This entire election is just a fucking waste of tax payers money and is a huge distraction for Canadians concerning the very important American election campaign.
