The non-Conservatives decided to form a coalition government because Harper wasn’t doing anything about the crumbling economy, and what does he do? He suspends parliament for seven weeks, so absolutely nothing can be done.
And already the attack ads have begun. Almost two-thirds of Canada voted AGAINST the Conservatives, yet Harper is calling the coalition creators “undemocratic”. What’s undemocratic, Mr. Harper, is you and your Canadian neocons decided that being a minority government means you can try to screw over the democracy-ensuring voter-credit political parties get and further your right-wing failed-in-the-USA unregulated market ideas to make yourselves and your friends rich.
Why did people vote Conservative? Much like G.W. Bush, Harper doesn’t give a crap about his country, just the profits of his corporate buddies, and the future of his party’s place in power.
Don’t give up, NDP & Liberals. Fight against this guy and his party, for the future of Canada. If you let him get away with this now, he or others like him will think they can get away with even worse.
