If you haven't read the October, 2006 issue of "The Walrus", its feature article is well worth the time and effort to track a copy down.
The feature article is entitled "Harper and the TheoCons".
I will be commenting on the particulars of the article over the coming days (it's lengthy), but it is well worth the read. I've read about half of it so far, and most of it strongly reinforces many of my assertions on this blog in the past that Harper's government is not what the CPoC campaigned on.
Sadly, The Walrus website is locked down for subscribers only - so you'll have to find the dead tree edition at Chapters.
A progressive voice shining light into the darkness of regressive politics. Pretty much anything will be fair game, and little will be held sacred.

Well, here I was thinking that Harper was merely a nasty form of Neo-Con. I was wrong......he is in actual fact a Theo-Con.

(I think that the article in The Walus should be required reading by anybody who wants to talk about either Harper or the current CPoC)
