the face of competence. months after stating canada's fiscal forecast indicate another balanced budget, lastest news is that next week's budget will have a deficit of 64$ billion over the next two years. OOOOPSS! let's remember flaherty did the same thing at the provincial level in ontario few years back, so why not do the same thing federally??
say what you want about paul martin, but when he inherited the conservative mess of 40$ annual deficits, he got them under control. whether his methods were right--his mantra was after all, hell or high water, he'd balance the budget.
yet another good reason the canadians didn't give the conservatives a majority last fall; and leads one to believe why harper called the elections in the first place knowing his government completely mismanaged the federal finances.
