- This is just another indication of the hidden Harper, Flaherity and the Con's "No-Action Plan"

“I think we have to keep watching and if there are persisting challenges with respect to employment, it might be necessary to do more,” Mr. Flaherty said.

Leadership is not waiting until the damage is done and then doing something only when forced to act by the Opposition.

This is just more of the Harper, Flaherty and Con's appraoch of:

deny, ignore, mislead, hide the facts, manipulate, attack critics instead of making sound proposals, propose everything then drag their feet so that in actuality they are maintaining their underlying ideological approach of "hands-off", "sink-or-swim", survival-of-the-strongest", "every-person-for-themselves".

Compare this with what Flaherty said the other day about the deficit - that Harper and the Cons would wait 5 - 6 years to see if the economy will grow itself out of deficit and if this deosn't happen then do some trimming of program spending (G&M). Other than their excuse for staying in power for 6 years - vis.: recovery of the economy not thwarted by Harper and the Con's getting booted out of office, how can this "no-action plan" approach possibly be good for Canada and all Canadians. It's like saying lets wait until Katrina hits New Orleans and see whether the retaining walls need bolstering. My response is "God save Canada"

Obviously Harper, Flaherty and the Con's are taking the approach that International factors and economic forces will pull Canada out of the recession - all Harper has to do is sit back, do nothing and take the credit.

Since Harper, Flaherty and the Con's want to sit back, do nothing and wait, better we just give them the boot.
