Remember the Conservatives (or whatever the nom du jour is today) wailing about the "billions of dollars" that were "wasted" on the long gun registry? OMFG, what a boondoggle, the Liberals wasted BILLIONS of taxpayer money on that program. Oh, the outrage of it all.
Well, back here we have Stephen Harper promising $100 million to start the process of arming our border guards. Then, today, Stockwell Day starts musing that the bill will hit $1 Billion.
Haven't I heard this script before? (and, at the end of 10 years, I'll put pretty good odds that the $1 Billion will be a lot more than that!)
A progressive voice shining light into the darkness of regressive politics. Pretty much anything will be fair game, and little will be held sacred.
