Harper Lied About Cost of Platform

According to CTV News,
Paul Darby, deputy chief economist of the Conference Board of Canada, originally concluded that Stephen Harper's Conservative platform "is affordable in each fiscal year from 2005-2006 through 2010-2011."

However, it turns out the version of the platform Darby was given to vet didn't include a Conservative party health-care guarantee which states patients will be transported to another jurisdiction if they can't get timely care at home.

The Platform also omitted a Tory platform promise to redress the so-called "fiscal imbalance" between Ottawa and the provinces.


This just goes to show that Harper's entire campaign has been nothing but smoke and mirrors, Many tories like Ted Byfield suggested the way Harper is talking now is because he wants to get elected and he will not tell anyone the actual truth about what he wants to do.

I swear to God, I have a stern warning for anyone who votes Tory. That is that many years down the road you will regret marking an "X" next to the Conservative Candidate in your riding, if the Tories get into power and then proceed to screw up Canada like I predict, then do not come crying to me, I will only say "I told you so" and "we tried to warn you, but you thought you knew better."

Mark my words, Harper's Conservatives will be the most right-wing government ever to set foot in Canada. The Media has done nothing but spin stories in their favor the entire campaign and ignoring the real questions about what this man will do. We deserve to know, Canadians have the right to know and shame on the media for giving Harper a free ride. I'm just disgusted to see Canadians being dooped by such empty words from the Tories.
