I enjoy having an economist as our Prime Minister, he understands how trade and the economy are essential to our country. He shows it here, with his comments on NAFTA.
Re-opening NAFTA would benefit Canada: Harper
Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Tuesday that re-opening NAFTA would actually help the Canadian economy, because Canada is the biggest supplier of oil and gas to the United States.
"That is of critical importance to the future of the United States, and if we had to look at this kind of option I think that would put us in an even stronger position than we were 20 years ago," Harper said at the North American Leaders' Summit in New Orleans.
But he added that his preference "is not to renegotiate what we discussed in the past, and to talk about the future."
We have a very big hammer, or should I say Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Newfoundland, are the hammers. I have seen PM Harper smile anytime the opposition brings up the Democrats desire to tear up the NAFTA agreement, he knows they will never do it. One word....oil.
Harper said "North American co-operation" is the "best option to create jobs and to compete effectively with emerging trading blocks elsewhere in the world."
Yet many Canadians think Canada can exist alone, that NAFTA is bad, that hating Americans is somehow making them "superior". It's easy to tear down, much harder to build up.
Here is a speech that the media forgot to cover. It's very impressive, guess that's why the lefties don't want to show it.
Prime Minister urges stronger relations with India.

This little good news article was totally ignored. Both Atlantic Canada and BC win with this one:
The Government of Canada Announces Refit of Navy Frigates
Where are the media stories on this? HA.
We see this daily. The media and lefties smearing the government anyway they can, that's easy, no positive TV coverage, no reports on jobs being created in Atlantic Canada.
What do they stand for, oh, I forgot lately they do not stand, they sit on their hands, not voting on anything.....I guess those are "Liberal values".

The reason that the media missed those stories is that they are too busy engineering the downfall of the CPC and PMSH. They long for the good old days and will stop at nothing to do it. Only negative stories get the coverage, positive ones are neatly and quietly swept under the carpet. They just may win.
That's why we have Tory TV peter.
A tv center, with live feeds to local/regional networks.
We can get the story out, untwisted by msm.
We can respond within minutes.
Great post, Hunter. I was very proud of our PM yesterday, as always.
Well wilson i wish they would start using Tory tv.Instead of letting the MSM spread the lies,where is Tory TV to spread the truth?Where is it.If they need more money to get it operational,why do they not say so.

Hmmm RE your point about SH being an economist...ergo; not a lawyer.
I would wonder how many of our prime ministers have been lawyers? Anyone know?
Not that I have anything against lawyers, but it does seem this vendetta against SH has been going on for a very long time.
Just some thoughts that may or may not have anything at all to do with anything at all!!
Where is it?"
Perhaps that is why the series of pseudo scandals culminating with the EC "raid" has been happening.
The opposition and the MSM most likely know that once the CPC can talk directly to the Canadian people; their spin and lies will be nullified.
Tory TV will run during the election.
A CPC tool, not used for government business.
I wonder if Elections Canada will raid the TV station next.
Good point Alberta Girl, have they all been lawyers? How many were independently wealthy?
That "raid" will be next week Wilson, remember only one fake scandal a week.
"This little good news article was totally ignored. Both Atlantic Canada and BC win with this one:

I live just outside Victoria and this story was b-i-g news here in the local paper (a Canwest publication), and I imagine it was in the Maritime papers too.
I think what is happening is that the local media outlets are picking up these stories and local people are hearing about the good things the Government is doing. The PPG is obsessed with Ottawa in particular and Ontario in general, and the rest of Canada barely exists for them, so these stories are ignored. Besides, it would never to do to write a good news story about the Harper government. For instance, the Cadman affair still seems to be a big story in Ottawa, at least in Ken Dryden's mind, but out here on the Island it never rated more than a paragraph on page 6, even at its height, and I haven't seen a mention of it for weeks.
Ordinary people are much more interested in stories like the naval refits that mean continued work for the shipyards here for the next ten years than they are in vague "scandals" and manufactured outrage.
Good points Jad. I like reading the Sun papers, especially the comments section, because they have different stories across different provinces.
It's funny how people in Toronto will be worried about transit, while in Edmonton, we are talking about potholes.
