Yes but so what? The so what is that they had as much a part as anyone in throwing tax money at failing businesses. In addition both parties had tax measures to minimize this.

And what were those plans?? Harper was not willing to spend when he did. He wanted to wait until February, but the opposition pushed him for a LARGE "stimulus/bailout package" in December. They threatened to topple him if he didn't (remember that whole coalition thing?). Harpee could have... |

How is this a broken promise? The mission as we know it today will end. A new, purely training one will commence afterwards. And last I checked it is training and development have been pushed as areas we need to be concentrating on. I really don't see where you can find a problem with this. |

If that is the case, then the teacher should have to register as a sex offender, because she is one. I can't say it any plaine... |
