Harper cancels controversial arts funding restrictions

WOW Harper must be scared! Scared that it's possibly he might not win majority, but also that he might not win this election.

Nanos: CP 34, LP 31, NDP 18

He keeps changing his stance on issues, to try and please everyone. But at what point is he going to piss off his base so much they won't vote for him... problem is who will they vote for, no one maybe.

I bewlieve that's called: Blink!

Man, it's just one flip-flop after another from Harper these days.

Harper is starting to act like McCain..

Hurley, you remember when Chretien promised the Canadian NHL team a few million to help them out? Then it turned out the public didn't like the idea so he changed his mind. Did you call Chretien a flip flopper? Didn't think so. Sometimes politicians change their minds when there is enough opposition. Weird huh?

Sure - he's trying for votes here - let's get that out of the way.

But what is wrong with any party leader bending to the will of the pople? The arts community has made it loud and clear that the funding cuts were not on, and obviously that has found a bit of traction in the public. So what's worse, Harper backtracking and listening to the public, or ignoring the masses and carrying on?

If it's imply partisan cynisism, then I understand, but if not, don't you think some credit should be handed out for answering to the public?

Well he tried to buy Quebec and shit on us at the same time.. doesn't work.. and its too late for him now.. his lips must be sore from kissing ass for 2.5 yrs... comes back to bite .. n'est pas?

Must be hanging around with Dion too much lately

It's another huge flip-flop on Harper's part. He knows that this campaign was a disaster. He was supposed to come out of it with a majority and now he's in a fight to win an minority, He's writing policy on the fly, basing it on polls and scribbling it on the back of napkins.

Harper forgets WE remember!

You are not the NDP and it's not an NDP policy that Harper is following. Plain and simple he wants votes.

What happened to his ideals, Ruez? Where are the Conservatives who loved his attacks on the arts?

J.F.L.....more meat sculptures and paintings of
religious figures using feces....and more
"Canadian" movies and TV that not even you lefties can
stand watching.
