  1. Shaw to P/U SunTV News!
    We do have a lot of great things in the west. And on May 3rd we hope to have one more: a Conservative Majority Government (to share with the rest of the country of course).

  2. have a look at sun news vid promo on their site, Their Promo even puts the ctv & cbc to shame, April 18th freedom from the left tv news.
    Also have a look at NNW today & over the next few wks they are ramping up the Conservative Slam job.
    Media is swaying this election & its high time one of the few remaining decent reporters or commentators speak up.
    Only problem is us in Ontario East will most likly never hear or read them, The Liberal Media in this country wants PM Harper out & are going all out to to do it.
    Dont believe me just look at the articles & comments to them including ctv.
    The way they are bashing the PM you would think the Polls should have him down in the Liz May range.
    And no matter how great he does Tonite on the debates they will find something on the National News tonite & tommorro’s editorial’s to slam him with.
    Watch for more leaks too.

  3. Montreal Gazette is first newspaper to endorse PM Harper.

    “Editorial: Conservatives’ return to prudence is welcome”
    “Many Canadian conservatives will be somewhat heartened by the Conservative Party’s platform, formally unveiled Friday, insofar as it seems to hearken back to old-fashioned fiscal prudence and the notion of smaller – or at least no bigger – government.
    The policy document, called Here for Canada, promises to eliminate the deficit by April 2014, a year earlier than suggested in the budget upon which the government fell a few weeks ago. It indicates that the Conservatives are prepared to return to their basic principles, presuming a majority government.
    Conservative leader Stephen Harper has spent the first part of the campaign promising a great many things to many parts of the country. True, some of the promises will cost taxpayers little (loan guarantees for Churchill Falls hydro development, for example), but many promises (the Quebec sales tax “harmonization” payment, increasing health-care transfers to the provinces by six per cent per year) will cost billions.
    We look forward to Harper and the Conservatives and Michael Ignatieff and the Liberals telling Canadians for the remainder of the campaign how they are going to do less: whether it is through increased efficiency or simply exiting areas where a federal government shouldn’t be in the first place (see agricultural and industrial, not to mention cultural, subsidies). Being honest with voters and telling them why governments cannot and should not be the answer to every conceivable problem in our country would be refreshing.
    The Conservatives promise a “strategic review” of both program spending and the cost of running government departments. This is good news, though one suspects the Conservatives must by now have a pretty good idea of where the money is going, since they have been the ones spending it for the last five years. The 2008 financial collapse didn’t create the best political conditions for government downsizing, but that threat (excuse?) is now truly past, and if there is a Conservative majority it must move quickly to restore the country’s fiscal status to black ink and annual debt reduction.
    Harper would also do well to explain to Canadians why government seemed to grow at a 1980s-style pace over the last five years while he was at the helm. Absolute growth in the cost of government is inevitable, as the country grows. It is the relative growth of government spending versus the country’s output, or GDP, that must be kept under tight control.
    Continuing to nurture the economy while carefully reducing the tax and regulatory burdens on all businesses – small and medium ones in particular – will speed up the progress to balanced budgets.
    All of Canada’s political parties spend far too much time telling voters what the government could or should be doing for Canadians. A government that can remain effective while reducing its footprint is a winning formula for all Canadians.”
