Be careful what you wish for.

Guy's an idiot. Not exactly a loss or a gain for anyone in this equation

Yeesh. Not even 6 months into it and the Cons are already becoming as bad and if not worse than the Libs......

way to generalise the entire party after the action of one nut case.

More like two.....and in a short period of time......And I believe that there a few others who have said and done some questionable things since the Cons got in power.......

Somehow I didn't think Vellacott(or any of the rest of Harper's crew) was absconding with taxpayer dollars?
The Conservatives have a lot of rope to go before they even come close to the corruption displayed by The Liberals in the past few years.

Oh, really?!
Please care to explain how around 12 Billion dollars supposedly managed to disappear from the military budget? Without a proper explanation?
And, Harper secretly funnelled funds totalling 250,000 to families of soldiers who have died in combat. Ther least he could have done is told us. That's what Harper's goal is, isn't it? tom make Government more open and accountable? And yet it seems to get more and more secretive every day....strange......
Harper also managed to become a modern-day Jacques Cartier and robbed the natives blind. Robbed them of about $5 Billion dollars. He also took $5 Billion dollars from proposed childcare, and $5 Billion from the environment. Good times.........
*Applauds Harper*

Oh, please, xerxes, who's muzzling here? It's clearly the Liberals who are doing the muzzling here, not Harper.
Talk about a knee-jerk reaction.

Someone must have told us. I read it in the newspaper and heard it on TV. Seems like pretty much public knowledge to me? AT least it didn't take the Auditor General to ferret it out.
As for the billions and the Military, you've lost me!

He forgot that those billions promised by the Liberals are still there.
And all those Harper hidden agenda's and secrets only Arctic knows about.
And $$$ given to soldiers deserving families is none of our business.
If the Liberals had given money to dead soldiers families there would have been at least 14 press releases, 28 photo ops, a 3 hour programme on CBC, front page headlines in the Globe & Mail etc.
It's private.
