Tired half-truths

CAITI-ONLINE is running another tired old piece about the letter Stephen Harper sent to the Governor General way back in September 2004.

I have only two things two say about this blog post:
1. It was only a letter, not a signed agreement, all three parties would have had to work issue by issue to pass a budget or or bill. It wasn't a signed agreement promising anyone anything. And even in that case, I still think that the GG should dissolve parliament and have an election.

2. How come when Stephen Harper and Gilles Duceppe have a press conference there is a row of Canadian flags behind them, but when Dion, Duceppe, and Layton sign an agreement there are only two flags well off to the sides?

One of the big differances is that they wanted to defeat the LIEbrals and have an elrction - NOT TO TAKE OVER AND GOVERN WITHOUT AN ELECTION.

This is the one differance. BTW if these three power hungry leaders want to gain - however small - respect they should be busy using their pannel right now working on a budget that would appeal to voters. Present both budgets to voters and let us decide.

This would never happen since their hidden agenda is too bad for Canadians - they would rather take over Canada through decieving Canadians than actually work on fixing the problems. Layton already said the Non Democradic Party will vote against budget without looking at it.
