Fiscal Fairy Dust

Hey Andy; Were you watching The National on CBC last night? Amanda Lang did a reality check on the Liberal Red Book. Seems that some of their items are costed at $0 because they were included in the Conservatives budget! That would be the budget that no longer exists because the Opposition parties triggered this election. So, if I have it right, when the Conservatives include these promises in their platform they must be costed, but the Liberal promises are free because the Conservatives are somehow paying for them. Fairy dust indeed! My advice to the electorate: if your election issue is the economy, vote Conservative. If you are looking for a "free lunch" doubling of your pension, vote NDP. If unethical politicians are your main concern, feel free to vote for any party. See you on the golf course Andy. Your friend Dorsal.
