Another empty promise from Harper

The Galloping Beaver: Harper's latest promise is empty

Funding for public services will dwindle due to corporate tax cuts - CLC economist.

Remember the Harris Government in Ontario? The same thing will happen to Canada if you re-elect the Conservatives to run the federal government - deficit (they've already put us into a deficit by giving away too much to large corporations, especially to foreign oil companies), increased debt, and cuts to services (which means less money for our healthcare, less for senior support, etc).

What kind of Liberal arrogance makes a person forget that he and his
Liberal caucus sat through the last parliament and not only allowed the
