Stick 'em Up! - It's the Jack Pack
(en francais)
Jack Pack #4
We all know what the answer to this is going to be. Paul Martin just can't say no.
My guess is that this next round of NDP blackmail will cost in the neighbourhood of $6 to $8 billion.
Blackmail? Considering that only 15.69% of Canadians voted for the NDP's socialist utopia, that leaves a full 84.31% who want no part of Jack's pack.
Paul Martin will agree to just about anything to maintain the NDP support in the fall. Jack will continue to prop up a government bereft of legitimacy, policies or scruples.
Jack would have you believe that this is 'making government work' - late night hotel deals to spend $4.5 billion dollars. Where I come from, the exchange of money for services in a hotel room, late at night, has another, very different name.
The 'NDP budget' might as well have been a blank cheque given to the Liberals. The bill implementing it, C48 - An Act to authorize the Finance Minister to make certain payments is so lacking in details that it borders on the criminal. Other than a few broad strokes, there is virtually no limit on how and where this money can be spent. Is this how Jack Layton (or Buzz Hargrove) takes care of Canadians?
If any Canadian business walked into a bank and asked for a $4.5 million dollar loan on the basis of a 3 page business plan, they would be laughed out onto the street, if not sized up for a straight jacket. So the question is - Why is the Jack Pack patting themselves on the back for helping approve $4.5 billion dollars of your hard earned tax dollars on the same basis?
PS. - on a purely personal and selfish side note, anyone have any old copies of the Liberal Red Book lying around. Sears doesn't publish anymore and the facilities stock at the cottage is getting dangerously low.
From Canwest News Service:
"With the current deal guaranteeing NDP support for the Liberals set to expire within days, Layton made clear his party is bent on using its new status as a free agent to wring new concessions from the ruling Liberals"
