It's Friday, so Stephen Taylor must have changed his mind by now.


Fresh off of Stephen Taylor's sanctimonious reference to The Economist's endorsement of Stephen Harper as a man of "prudence" and not susceptible to unnecessary panic, Harper's first post-election act is to steal from Stephane Dion frantically lash together a six-point plan to protect us all from the imminent, catastrophic financial meltdown.

Tune in tomorrow when Taylor writes on how this demonstrates Stephen Harper's "leadership."

Interesting, decrying his opponenets plan as bad during an election and then stealing it right after. how very Trudeau of him...

I wonder what the nutters think of their hero emulating PET?

How soon they forget: "Do not invest in Ontario".

Proving once again that everything heard during an election is all bullshit and flummery.

You guys are being unfair to Stephen Harper. Stephane Dion proposed a five point plan, as opposed to Harper's six point plan. It's well established that plans which constitute a prime number of points are usually created out of panic whereas those consisting of an even number of points are based on carefully thought out reason.

This is also why you see no two point plans, as they would constitute a paradox and probably the end of the universe.

Best,

Stephen Taylor: "Lie to me to Stephen Harper...lie to me. Stand erect in my House of Commons and pound me with your lies."

God, that's hawt!

According to http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/oct/17/uselections2008-barackobama1, Canadians prefer Obama to McCain 70% to 14%. If this is true, why is Stephen Harper still PM? What am I missing here?

Nearly 70% of Canadians didn't vote for Stephen Harper either. (Plus the 40% who didn't vote at all.)

What you are missing here is how the first past the post system invalidates the will of the majority.

Logicallyspeaking is right. Plans with odd numbers are stupid. Gawd. DIOOOOOOOOOON!
