"This ain't your grandfather's Conservative party."
Over $1 Billion dollars for the 2 day G8 Conference - fake lakes and Gazebo's! What would your old Tory grandfather and grandmother have to say about that?
Our Prime Minister is a firm believer in the idea that people should be held accountable for the things they say - On the eve of Election Day - 2011, let's hear what Stephen Harper has said about Canada in the recent past:
"Canada is a Northern European welfare state in the worst sense of the term, and very proud of it. Canadians make no connection between the fact that they are a Northern European welfare state and the fact that we have very low economic growth, a standard of living substantially lower than yours, a massive brain drain of young professionals to your country, and double the unemployment rate of the United States."
- Stephen Harper, then vice-president of the National Citizens Coalition, in a June 1997 Montreal meeting of the Council for National Policy, a right-wing American think tank.
"Your country [the USA], and particularly your conservative movement, is a light and an inspiration to people in this country and across the world."
-Stephen Harper, then vice-president of the National Citizens Coalition, in a June 1997 Montreal meeting of the Council for National Policy, a right-wing American think tank.
"Canada appears content to become a second-tier socialistic country, boasting ever more loudly about its economy and social services to mask its second-rate status, led by a second-world strongman appropriately suited for the task."
- Stephen Harper in his article "It is time to seek a new relationship with Canada," December 12th, 2000.
"A culture of defeat..."
- Stephen Harper, describing the Atlantic provinces, May 2001.
"In terms of the unemployed, of which we have over a million-and-a-half, don't feel particularly bad for many of these people. They don't feel bad about it themselves, as long as they're receiving generous social assistance and unemployment insurance."
-Stephen Harper, then vice-president of the National Citizens Coalition, in a June 1997 Montreal meeting of the Council for National Policy, a right-wing American think tank.
"What we clearly need is experimentation with market reforms and private delivery options [in health care]."
- Stephen Harper, then President of the NCC, 2001.
"We also support the exploration of alternative ways to deliver health care. Moving toward alternatives, including those provided by the private sector, is a natural development of our health care system."
- Stephen Harper, Toronto Star, October 2002.
Let's face it boys and girls - Stephen Harper HATES Canada the way it is! John Diefenbaker would not be happy with today's leader of the Conservative Party of Canada!
Stephen Harper's Conservatives are false conservatives, against the traditions of Canada and the preservation of the highly successful Red Tory tradition.
Harper's Conservatives must be paralyzed at all costs, removed from power, and ideally flogged.
The Red Tory tradition will rise again like a phoenix from the ashes, as the very spirit of Canada wishes.
