Even if the winning party has less than 50 percent of the vote, ìt was their policies and promises that represented the combination that more Canadians voted for than any other other party.

With a coalition, we`ll have three parties, each pushing their own agenda, each of which was less popular than the Conservative agenda. And I have to say that Harper`s strategy of ``doing nothing`` is not really harmful, as the opposition is advertising.

IMO, it is when the gov`t actually does do something that is harmful. That`s when they start throwing billions of taxpayer dollars to the wind. Doing nothing doesn`t cost anything.

The Liberals and NDP and Bloc Quebec just want to suck up more money, pocket some, and fund some stupid social program - almost as if they have no life of their own. There is a reason they call new legislation a `Bill`. They Bill us taxpayers. They should call it an ``ìnvoice`` when they charge us for the costs of their federally funded Christmas gifts, and pop the cork on a federally funded bottle of expensive wine.

Harper has it right. Doing nothing is a great strategy. Unless they want to change the election laws. That might not cost as much as bailing out the car companies. They could require political parties to run representatives in at least half the ridings in Canada (representing half the population), to be allowed to run in the federal election.
