Of course, if you listen to the CBC, or any of the other liberal friendly media (thats just about all of them) then you would think that the Conservatives and the Liberals are neck to neck. The last poll someone took just before Christmas placed the LIberals at 31%, with the conservatives at 34%. They quote the 3% margin of error as meaning they are tied....I like to think that the conservatives are 6% ahead.

The last time the Liberals cancelled a conservative contract for helicopters, they ended up paying almost half the contract value in penalties, and later the full value again for the same helicopter but without the same balls and whistles. What shrewd business men these guys are.

While a good portion of the Cdn public isn't so keen about the war in Afghanistan, they are for the most part 100% behind suporting the troops who are there. Hopefully this will be the last time our men have to go to war with 16 year old 4 cylinder softskin trucks as the front line combat vehicle.
