Conservative Majority Trouble in Canada
This is the outcome I truly feared. I thought maybe the NDP and the Liberals could stand united against Harper and his Conservative lackeys. Well I was sure wrong. I’m glad to see that the NDP came out stronger then before because of the election. At least Jack Layton will try to give the conservatives as much as a headache possible. Layton did have an almost spotless attendance record.
I don’t understand in this poor economic time why the Canadian Public, which in some cases have lost their lively hoods, jobs, homes, good credit ratings etc, would allow a Conservative majority. Well I guess the rich make out well, tax reductions for large corporations and the upper class, while small business, and middle to low income families will pick up the tax burden. Did we all forget that this poor economic time happened on the conservatives watch and festered.
What concerns me most is that the conservatives will be in a strong position to build their new jails, prisons, they will know surely purchase the f-35 attack aircraft, extend are roll in Afghanistan, and get more involved in the Liberian affair.
So ask yourself is Canada now in a stronger position after the elections. The Conservative party is definitely stronger but what does that hold for the average Canadian citizen.
