There Ain't No Budget Like An Election Budget
Billions in new spending. Fiscal balance between provinces redressed. Tax cuts for families.
Wow, are we gearing up for an election day or what? This is like the political equivalent of Christmas morning, only if an election gets called, we don't get to keep the presents. Although, there's no need to burn Santa/Stephen Harper at the stake yet, since it looks like the Bloc Quebecois will support the Tories' budget, averting that dreaded election for at least a little while yet. I wonder if that has anything to do with the $698 million that Quebec stands to rake in to correct their fiscal imbalance?
Looks like 24 Sussex will stay in Tory hands for the next little while. Poo... I was really hoping that I could make an offer.
