Another thing Re: EI reform
EI, the way it sits today, is EXACTLY the way it was when Harper become PM. In other words this is the same EI (qualification rules) of the Martin/Chretien days. The Libs made it impossible to collect in order to pay down the deficit to make the budget look good. Now the Libs are using their own EI as an attack tool. ???
This is what I'm talking about. Anything for votes Liberals. They assume a certain level of voter intelligence and play into it.
I wouldn't change EI either if I was Harper. It would just seem like a win for the Libs. A win that they managed to change their own EI rules.
What Harper is doing for our Arctic, sovereignty, and the Arctic/Northern Economic Development Agency (CanNor) and placing the agency in Iqaluit is more then any PM has done in decades for the North.
The new Northwest Passage is going to be huge economically for the Arctic. He's ensuring we have enough presence to maintain sovereignty.
My cheque is in the mail tomorrow.
