The Conservative-NDP Coalition

Read about it.

Who was it, again, who said that coalition with the "socialists" is a bad thing that "will do long term, real damage to the country?"

Update - September 16, 2009

Make that the Conservative-Socialist-Separatist coalition.

Jeff Jedras: On "Scary Stephen" and the Secret Harper Tapes

National Post contributor Jeff Jedras on the significance of the secret Harper videotapes:

No, what is damning about that tape, what will not be part of the public pitch the Conservatives will be making, is the foreshadowing of what a Conservative government would do with its majority. It was a brief re-emergence of the Scary Steve that Harper has largely managed to hide in government.

He ranted against socialists and separatists, he complained about left-wing ideologues on the courts and in the public service, he equated groups that fought for rights for minorities, for the disabled, for women, as left-wing fringe groups. He mocked multilateralism in foreign policy. He re-emphasized that he wants to get rid of the gun registry. He mocked government-sponsored child care programs.

And in addition to the message was the tone: angry, spiteful, negative. A very different message and tone then sweater-vest Steve.

Harper Unplugged: Liberal Government Would Do "Long-Term, Real Damage to Canada"

Judging by his inflamed rhetoric at a recent "closed to the media" Conservative Party session in Northern Ontario, it appears our Prime Minister fears that a Liberal government may soon be in the cards:

"Do not be fooled for a moment. If we do not get a majority, the Liberals, the NDP and the Bloc Quebecois will combine and they will form a government. They will deny this until they're blue in the face in an election campaign, but I guarantee you, if we do not win a majority, this government will have a Liberal Government, propped up by the socialists and the separatists. That government may not last very long, but every day it is in office it will do long term, real damage to this country. This country cannot afford a government like that. If they force us to the polls - if they get together and force us to the polls - we have to teach them a lesson and get back there with a majority and make sure their little coalition never happens."

Funny, I thought it was the current Harper government whose likely, short-lived survival has entirely depended on prop-ups from the "socialists and separatists."
