More election speculation via CTV:
Ignatieff attacked the government on its economic track record and said that the Tories have done little to rebuild the economy.
"If things are getting better, it's not because of this government, it's because the people of Canada have put their shoulder to the wheel," Ignatieff said.
That right there is the essence of conservatism: the people make the difference and not the government. I don't think that the government should be doing too much to get the ball rolling and to have Iggy say that that's what happening is fine by me.
While I'm not the first to say so, I am really getting tired of the constant threat of yet another election. I don't know who does strategy for the Liberal Party but the tactic really does get old after a while. Offer some options instead and show that you're about principle like you say you are.

New ideas? It's been awhile since that party's come up with anything new, from making their election threatenings during a parliamentary session to their old standby of slamming their opponent being their entire election platform.
"That right there is the essence of conservatism: the people make the difference and not the government"
Bingo ! Let's hope the CPC seize on Iggy's inadvertant support of conservative ideals.
Very good catch! Iggy supports conservatism. Who knew?
Iggy is a blue urban tory in drag as a Lieberal. You can tell by his blue-checked shirt serving $40 pancake breakfasts to Calgarians (verbotten in my home town - they are ALWAYS free) in Sudbury (hahaha CBC) at the $550/plate dinner in a blue collar town (hahaha). I hope all the CPC supporters show up for NDP spagetti at $5.50 to show our collective support for fiscal prudence and respect for people who do not have $550 to donate, but have their shoulders to the wheel.
The vision I have of Ignatieff is the one of him debating Dion and the line that sticks is this one:
"we didn't get it done"
