The boy Stephen Harper is trying to convince the public that HE doesn’t want an election, it is the Liberals who are threatening to cause an election. RIGHT, it is the Liberals who have constructed a 17,000 square foot war room for election readiness, it is the Liberals who having been running attack ads on the Conservatives and it’s the Liberals who has been passing out tax payers money like it was candy to try to buy a majority government.

Harper really does appear to think that Canadians are pretty dumb. You’d have to be living under a rock not to be getting a pretty clear picture of who is manipulating the public and often at taxpayer’s expense. Now, the latter would be nothing new if Harper hadn’t spent so much time in opposition decrying the use of public dollars by the Liberals. If you want to scream about others, then don’t do so yourself.

Harper can use all the money he wants to try to turn lies into truths but Canadians will see through him. We’re not blind to the fact that he hasn’t governed for the last year, more like run an election campaign from the government side of the house. If he truly wanted to govern, he’d get down to it instead of harping about the opposition parties, especially the Liberals. All he’s doing is showing how nervous he is of Dion.

For the moment, at least, Dion is getting smarter, he’s staying focused and not rising to Harper’s attempts to get a rise out of him. He may be learning yet. Well, other than him getting his nose out of joint over the Vimy memorial.

If he’d been smart, he’d have made sure that his schedule was clear to go and then waited to see if the government extended the invitation to the opposition leaders. Then he could have really pissed Harper off by being there. Opportunity lost Stephane, you got to start thinking like your opponent, even if you don’t act like him. And for god’s sake, don’t act like him.
