TORONTO Prime Minister Stephen Harper is gambling that his opposition's backing of an unpopular carbon tax will steer Canadian voters to the right in tomorrow's election and increase his hold on power. If the polls are any indication, though, Canada's third national ballot in just over four years will give the country yet another minority government. Harper's Conservatives did not win an outright majority...
OTTAWA — A Conservative candidate’s suggestion that a private clinic be used as a model for health delivery across Canada prompted opposition charges that Prime Minister Stephen Harper wants to expand for-profit health care outside the public system. Peter Kent made the comment during a recent campaign debate in Toronto’s Thornhill riding. Buckets and myself have been trying to figure out why the group...
CANADA: WITH PRIME minister Stephen Harper looking set to win tomorrow's Canadian election, opposition parties made last-ditch appeals yesterday to try to prevent him winning enough seats to form a majority government.
I predict that Susan Kadis will win on Tuesday. Mr. Kent will likely not get a third chance. First, he calls for private health care and forces Stephen Harper to respond. Then: TORONTO, Oct. 12, 2008 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) -- Peter Kent , Conservative Candidate for the Thornhill, Ontario riding and former journalist has produced a video which includes appearances by notable Canadian journalists...
Conservative Party leader, Stephen Harper, attempted to remove questions about Canada's role in Afghanistan from debate during the election campaign by announcing the combat role of the Canadian Forces will end, in 2011, if he is re-elected as Prime Minister. But let's be clear about what the current combat role entails.
While a lot of attention is being focussed on the election campaign in her neighbour to the south, Canada too is having a general election. It will take place on 14th October 2008. The opinion polls do show the Conservatives doing well. The government of Stephen Harper (above) must be hoping that they can turn the minority Conservative government into a majority one. The Liberals are not doing well...
A Conservative government would allocate up to $500 million by 2016 to extend Canada's broadband network into unserved rural and remote areas, leader Stephen Harper said Saturday.
the NDP and the grits are always whining about American interference in Canada's affairs. The NDP has brought in the left wing loon, Michael Moore to campaign for them. He of course attacked HM Pm Stephen Harper. I guess its ok for the grits and the dippers to bring in Americans, as long as the American is a left wing loon. The utter hypocrisy of it all. This should be very helpful to the Tories. (...
p2pnet news view | P2P | Politics:- It’s the last weekend before we learn if Canadian voters will allow Stephen Harper to continue to ruin (sorry, run) Canada. You’ll have various political party representatives from various political parties banging on your door (and you), trying desperately to convince you their party is THE party. Same as it [...]
p2pnet news view | P2P | Politics:- Four days to go before we’ll know if Stephen Harper, Stephane Dion, Stephane Dion/Jack Layton or, if the wildest of wild possibilities (and IOHO, the best of all possible outcomes) somehow becomes reality, Elizabeth May will lead the country for the next little while. What’s the score so far? British [...]
p2pnet news view | P2P | Politics:- Should he stay or should he go? - to paraphrase The Clash. Stephen Harper, that is. “Whether Canada ends up as one national government or two national governments or several national governments, or some other kind of arrangement is, quite frankly, secondary in my opinion.” Harper made that statement in 1994. “And [...]
Election day looms in Canada. One of the main issues of the moment centres on Liberal leader Stéphane Dion’s alleged inability to understand English. In PM Stephen Harper’s view, this renders Dion unfit to handle the economy. The question he supposedly stumbled over is, “If you were prime minister now, what would you have done about the economy [...]
An expert opinion filed in court contradicts Stephen Harper's claim that an author altered a taped interview with the Conservative Leader to unfairly characterize a financial offer to dying MP Chuck Cadman, a lawyer for the Liberal Party of Canada says.
When Conservative Leader Stephen Harper visited the B.C. capital this week for a rally, he could have been standing in a hotel meeting room anywhere in Canada. The 150 party supporters in the cramped, windowless room provided a colourful backdrop for Mr. Harper as he delivered a message to Canadian voters on the national economy.
And what a week it was.... Wall Street had its worst tumble ever - barely a week after U.S. taxpayers poured a trillion dollars into propping it up. Stephen Harper's long-awaited dive in the polls materialized from thin air as Stephane Dion finally found his voice - and Canada began to listen. The McCain campaign came almost completely unravelled after another debate victory by Barack Obama and the...
