New Democrats pledge $1.8B for seniors' health care - Politics - CBC News
Oh goodie, the NDP is promising to spend more money, meanwhile they are yet to provide any sort of plan for how they will cover the costs of their promises.
I can't wait for someone to draft up a complete list of all the spending the NDP has promised. NDP was quick to bitch about the length of the election, shame that didn't give them enough time to draft an actual spending plan - I don't know how any financially competent person could vote the the NDP after they have promised the moon.
And on a side note, people saying the cons cooked the books for the surplus... well this year probably should have been a deficit year given the price of Oil, but the GM sale bailed them out.
Yes they spent a lot of money, but every single country spent a lot of money to shield their people from the financial crisis. Any reasonable person can look at the trend and see we are headed to the land of the elusive surplus under the current gov.
