Rec centre funding anyone? We would better off even if we still voted 100% conservative, if the city didnt have Harper and his buddies all based here. They go so far out of the way not to 1. cross Harper, and 2. Not look like they are favouring their own ridings. So pull the rec centre funding and no one will say anything.
Attention yes - part of me wanted to see a Conservative defeat because I think they would come back with a far superior candidate for the next general election. But I highly doubt we would receive any additional funding. Other than a few missteps (cough...G20...cough), this government has been quite equitable with the distribution of infrastructure funds across the country.
