Canada second rate

Does this mean that Stephen Harper was right on when he said,

"Canada appears content to become a second-tier socialistic country, boasting ever more loudly about its economy and social services to mask its second-rate status."

Voting Liberal for 12 years does not seem to have helped our ability to brag about our social programs unlike those first-tier socialistic European countries.

We used to be number one on the UN Human Development Index. We haven't done that since 2000 and the biggest gains on this scale came under Brian Mulroney's Tories.

I'm glad Stephen Harper has the guts to state the risks that Canada faces by voting for people that have no vision for the country. Yes, Canada did seem content to carry on falling amongst our international peers and over the last four years the Liberals boasted ever more loudly about our economy, surpluses, and health care to mask this second-rate status. Very frustrating to someone with a vision that Canada should be the wealthiest nation on the planet and the most generous.




Must be a Power Corporation thing. Reads like a witness list.
