 LTJ I would say so. Funny how the timing of the prorogue was 1 day before the shitstorm hit about all the job loss and further economic crisis hitting like a hammer. Election timing was important as the government was in the black in july(reports come out in late sept or early oct) because of spectrum sale. We are in the red for august and I suspect when the report comes out his week on september we will officially be in a deficit for the whole year, unlike how they said we wouldn't. Hence the need to sell off 2.3 in government assets. DRSOB's.

I may hate the libs because they lie about their platform, but the way the cons run a government is dispicable. Ontario is still reeling from the p3's ,  sell off of 407(thanks jim) government assets and then leaving with a huge debt leftover.  Then they blame McGuinty in the media for the 6 billion debt that arose in 6 months....Bullshit useless media doesn't even question this assertion, because they are just reporting what they are being told. Fucking do your job and be a journalist not a stupid sound byte reporter.

Rex Murphy today(sunday I am still up) was at his usual uselessness. I think the guy just hates quebec even using the "bloc is a separatist party only, don't you agree". No unless you say that the reform was. As far as I can tell the bloc is about protecting quebecs interests in canada. It isn't a good position in my mind, but they haven't tabled a bill calling for the deformation of canada in the house. Though I think cons would support such a bill if it was presented as a way for corporations to buy the parts of our nation. The Parti Quebecois on the other hand has tabled such legislation.  So I see a differance in the two, despite being aligned.
