It's now been 2 days since the election campaign has begun, and this election is not about coalition this and coalition that, it's about a government that came into power in 2006 with the mandate to clean up Ottawa and hold all MP's to a higher standard. The Conservatives brought in the Accountability Act, they brought in the fixed election date law, they brought in several new crime bills, and some became the law of the land.
So what was the key factor that brought down the government? was it the budget? No, it was the Contempt of Parliament that the Conservative govenment was found guility of. Voters I've spoken with don't seem to care about this serious matter, and Harper himself does not seem to care about this either. Don't forget it was Harper that brought down the Paul Martin government on what they felt was the breaking of several laws by Liberal party officials which was labled "Adscam". So is this the reason why Harper is playing the coalition card because he knows he can't win an election on the fact that his government for the first time in Canadian history was found in contempt of Parliament.
Again this election is not about a coalition, but it's about helping our seniors, who built this country live without worrying if they have the money to pay their bills and put food on the table. It's about investing in our kids, in our community, and putting families first.
Until next time!
