NY Times Highlight Conservative Bungling

Impolitical: New York Times highlights Conservative bungling of the listeriosis outbreak
The editors of the medical journal and others have drawn a parallel between the Harper government’s handling of the listeriosis outbreak and an outbreak of tainted drinking water that killed seven people in Walkerton, Ontario, in 2000. The Conservative government that was in power in Ontario at that time could not overcome a widespread perception that its regulatory cutbacks led to the Walkerton deaths and it was defeated in a subsequent election.
