Nice promise - pity their actions speak rather loudly the other way.
Consider the following factoids:
1) Harper is not talking to the media any more This is a resurrection of Harpers past - you know the one who openly despised the media.
2) In the same breath, the CPC is muzzling any candidate that is a known hard line social conservative - telling their campaign workers to keep the media away from them.
Now, if they aren't "open" and "accessible" during an election campaign, how bad are they going to get once elected?
Having had Jason Kenney as my MP since he was first elected to Parliament in 1997, the answer is pretty obvious - if you thought that Mulroney's government was arrogant an inaccessible, you haven't seen anything yet. (Of course, it is nearly a full generation since Mulroney was last running for office...long enough for voters to forget just how bad it really was) Harper and his band are apt to be even worse. Mulroney was just corrupt - I suspect that HarperCo will emulate all of the worst attributes of BushCo.

Well, it's going well for them, they just don't want to louse it up for themselves.
Saaaayyy.... I've got a GREAT idea! Why don't we send a reporter off to visit with Unka Ralphie over a pint or twelve of beer, and ask him about a Conservative Canada.... **flush**
NEWS REPORT: "And in a totally unexpected turn of events, the Green Party, NDP and Yogic Flier Parties are each holding more seats in their respective parties than the Conservatives..." No? Damn!
