"...When that moment arrives, Mr. Flaherty said he is hopeful that economic growth will end the deficit within five or six years. If growth doesn't work on its own, Mr. Flaherty said he will trim program spending. ..."
Harper, Flaherty and the Con's exit strategy is the same as their 'entrance strategy' - deny, ignore, mislead, hide the facts, manipulate, attack critics instead of making sound proposals, propose everything then drag their feet so that in actuality they are maintaining their underlying ideological approach of "hands-off", "sink-or-swim", survival-of-the-strongest", "every-person-for-themselves".
Anyone get the explanation why Flaherty is saying the deficit will end in 5 - 6 years, other than an claim to stay in power that long - so that recovery is not thwarted.
Harper, Flaherty and the Con's are intending to wait until the economy grows itself out of deficit i.e., so that increases in tax revenues will cover the deficits. This is, of course, in line with their hands-off ideological approach. But, what possible justification do they have for being in Government if they are going to do nothing!
Oh, Flaherty says that if growth doesn't work on its own he will trim program spending. From what Harper and he are saying they are going to give it 5 - 6 years to see if it works. God save Canada.
By the way, you can be sure they are surreptitiously increasing taxes, without the decency to tell everyone exactly what they are doing.
When is Harper, Flaherty and the Con's going to stand up and tell Canadians exactly what they are and what they stand for - extreme right wing ideologues, who base their policies on some archaic capitalist philosophy that has been incompetent to the purposes of modern, complex, diverse, tolerant, Western democratic societies for over 100 years.
