HARPER SOLVES FISCAL IMBALANCE!
Stephen Harper did it. In 2 short months he solved the fiscal imbalance. Canada’s Houdini, we never even saw him do it! Quebec must be thrilled; Harper has already fulfilled his two election promises!
I wanna barf!
Yesterday, the two biggest whiners, Quebec and Ontario brought down budgets with BILLIONS of dollars in new spending. Dalton McGuinty had to find a way to go into deficit. He didn’t cut taxes, raised tuition, and still managed to post a 1.5 billion dollar deficit. He is making Bob Rae look frugal!
Quebec claimed to have a plan to pay off the 110 billion dollar debt the province owes in the next 20 years. For governments so “crippled” by the fiscal imbalance, this certainly is surprising. Is this more proof the fiscal imbalance doesn't exist. Only PEI is in deficit. I dont count Ontario's because they created it themselves. Blackmail federalism. WONDERFUL!
Paul Martin, you got duped! You played into this game, and then denied the game existed. The damage was done! Now 90% of Quebeckers think the federal government is screwing the provinces. Can Jean Charest explain to me how inventing that the federal government is screwing Quebec is good for national unity?

Huh? Do you mean that no province is running a deficit? I think BC is this time around...
show me the money!
actually PEI is and Ontario had to go through extreme measures to get a deficit
Mon ami,
You have to get facts straight when you're talking about Ontario. The reason that Premier Dolton is posting a 1.5 billion dollar deficit is because the Conservative government of Ernie Eves left the Liberals with a deficit of over 6 billion dollars. The Ontario budget has less to do with McGuinty trying to mascarade a trumped up deficit to get more cash from the Feds, and more do to with trying to balance the budget after years of Harris/Eves shanningans.
