[Stephen Harper] demonstrated his politically tin ear once again with his government's ill-conceived and unnecessarily partisan economic statement. The opposition parties say the lack of an immediate financial stimulus is why they are banding together to bring down the government, but what started their upset was Harper's intent to cut government funding for political parties. Government funding is far more important to the opposition parties than to the Tories: one partisan act created another.
The opposition to the economic statement didn't start out about the economy. So what? Political fights rarely begin in the rarefied echelons of great debate, but they do develop that way. Harper produced a narrow-minded economic statement and, predictably, got a narrow-minded response, but it wa...

Canada is unpopular among environmentalists in general and among the Europeans in particular because of the pragmatic, realistic approach to dealing with the hypothesis of man-made global warming taken by Stephen Harper's Conservative government. Mr. Harper's government is, in effect, only begrudgingly green, while the opposition parties are enthusiastically, some might say irresponsibly, committed to Kyoto's impossible goals. The clouds that always hang over Kyoto conferences will, in any case, be slightly darker over Poland. A recent poll, commissioned by environmental groups such as Earthwatch in collaboration with the financial organization HSBC, confirms what many critics have long suspected -- that for most people, global warming is a luxury concern, something to be indulged in go...
