If Jim Flaherty says the recession is over then, I suggest everyone hunker down for some more bad times. One need only look at everything Flaherty, Harper and the Cons have been saying for the last two years to conclude if Harper or Flaherty say it, it just isn’t right.
Also, it may be that the economy might expand a bit, but what about all the damage and suffering that has already been, and will be, inflicted. It is something like saying that Katrina is over – maybe, but what about New Orleans. With Harper, Flaherty and the Con’s sink or swim, every person for themselves approach, I would think there is a lot of people in Canada that are not cheering Carney’s proclamation, even if it is not partisan.
