Misrepresenting the truth, say it ain't so

Look for the Liberals to try and make hay on the latest report from OCED.

Now I am not an economist, nor pretend to be. But it seems that 6 of the G7 countries are being revised downward in this report.
  1. Canada
  2. Japan
  3. Germany
  4. Italy
  5. United Kingdom
  6. France
Yet somehow it is all the Conservatives fault, and that somehow a Liberal government would have avoided this. Sighs.

The only country to actually see their growth targets adjusted upwards was the United States. And in the next quarters as the American economy regains its footing and starts buying and importing we will the G7's economic growth improve. This will be lead by Canada as we are next to the biggest economy of the world, oh, and we are their largest trading partner.

Of course the Liberals know how to save our economy. Raise everybody's taxes. Geez, isn't that obvious.

Raise taxes, steal money, brown envelopes. This is the way, this is the Liberal Party of Canada

BUT, Canada is keeping her head above water and not running a deficit , and paying down debt.
If I remember correctly, we are the only G7 country to be in such good shape.
