In order to pass the federal budget, Harper's government must gain the support from Liberal Leader, while the NDP and Bloc Quebecois have already voted against it. Michael Ignatieff announced today supporting the budget on conditional terms, stated that the Tories would be put on probation and must provide frequent progress reports in March, June and December.
"I believe it is in the best interests of Canadians that parliamentarians get to work on the economy, so I will move to amend the budget and include a requirement that the government report back to the House of Commons repeatedly, with the first report being required within 60 days on their progress," Ignatieff said. "Mr. Harper must accept these accountability measures or his government will fall."
My say is, sooner or later Harper's government must be brought down. Apart from economic crisis the nation is at stake, in terms of homeland security. Harper has put the country under fire and he will continuously doing so by accepting bribes from China. Damages have been done, we must act as goalkeepers to watch his every single move, can't afford to make another mistake.
