They're at it again...
(en francais)
Take a good look at this story at CTV news.
Transport Minister Jean Lapierre announced on Question Period that the Liberals are about to launch a 'new' major offensive in Quebec starting on August 10th. The Prime Minister and Cabinet ministers will be on the ground in Quebec.
Ouch - just that statement alone is enough to make me grab hold of my wallet and hold on for dear life. Ever know a Cabinet Minister to go somewhere without bringing along a couple of those REALLY big, photo-op, larger than life cheques to hand out. The kind that we, the average taxpayer, are going to be paying off for the next 30 years. Hold on to your hat - we're about to witness some of the most expensive vote buying in Canadian history. The Liberals have sought out new lows in politics with Adscam, why not shoot for new highs in federal spending 'investing in federalism' in Quebec.
Give the Liberals credit. They know what works and they stick to it. What better way to minimize any future fallout from the Gomery report by bracketing any announcement with a couple of billion dollars on either side. Now that the testimony has wrapped up, it's back to the tried and true. Open up the piggy bank - the Liberals have a country to save!
Keep an eye on this, the total will be staggering by the time we make it to December.
