The coalition has not been elected by the people.

It seems to me that the government that has been in power, and has been re-elected by the people, has done a pretty good job of keeping the economy afloat.
I also think that by "helping seniors and doubling infrastructure spending" will help to put more people to work.

I'm quite certain that the other (3) political parties were really afraid of the belt tightening that they would have to do because Finance Minister Jim Flaherty unveiled his economic update where he proposed a "temporarily shut down public servants' ability to strike and outlined plans to slash public funding for political parties.

It seem to me that the three political parties think that money grows on trees and they should get the lions share.
Sort of a do as we say and not as we do politics.

But then what do I know, I'm not a politician.
