You fooled me :) Naw, you are not listening... 1) Paul Martin is not responsible for the booming economy any more than the PC's were responsible for the recession they had to contend with or any more than Al Gore is responsible for creating the Internet.. 2) The Liberals pre-Mulroney.. read Trudeau and his helpers... are equally responsible as the PC's for the HUGE Canadian debt problem... but they too had other economic problems beyond their control .. 3) The Mulroney Tories had a MUCH SMALLER revenue base than the POST Mulroney Liberals... It's a matter of public record you ignore, not to mention the fact that the Liberals inherited two wonderful tools (which they vehemently decried mind you until in power and in fact used as stepping stones to power). Where oh where would the Liberals have been without the GST and Free Trade ? Again I cite Economics 101... 4) There are many reasons the economy boomed in the 90's... NONE of them had ANYTHING to do with Paul Martin.. You are not thinking straight if you think it was anything else but us being caught up in a global, made in the USA, phenomenon.. 5) Show me that I'm defending the PC ... I'm saying Paul Martin didn't fix anything.... That's all.... and I'm really tired of the fairy tail that he did... you did I did... Canadians did... PM didn't. 6) 6 or 7 billon( EXACTLY... PLUS the BILLIONS in transfer payments Martin cut... adds up up pretty neatly if you are a moderate ;o) I suppose when / if the US housing market collapses, and Americans stop buying... (with all the ensuing ancillary ramifications) it will be Stephen Harper's fault ? regards Al
