Green Party leader Elizabeth May refers to Prime Minister Stephen Harper economic policies as dangerous and says Canada cannot afford to have its economic picture further weakened.
“Mr. Harper’s fiscal policies have already severely undermined the strength and resilience of Canada’s economic fundamentals,” said Ms. May. “In the short time since Mr. Harper took office, productivity is down, Canada has lost hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs Canada has been brought to the brink of a deficit for the first time in over a decade.”
May intends to point out the potential for even more serious economic damage should the Harper government be given a second mandate on October 14th.
“More now than ever before, Canada needs leadership that will protect us from the shock of the economic collapse south of the border, brought about by the policies of George Bush, Mr. Harper’s ideological twin. Mr. Harper’s economic policy has thus far been built upon a series of misguided moves, like betraying his promise not to tax income trusts, slashing the GST and allowing federal spending to skyrocket. His poor stewardship is increasingly hitting average Canadians in the pocket book and this has to end.”
The Green Party’s plan for a sound economy in Canada would reverse the damage done by the Harper regime and would get Canada back on the right track.
“Instead of ignoring the business opportunities presented by shifting to a green economy, the Green Party would embrace the challenge to shift to a low-carbon economy. We will make the tax system fairer and use it to promote a healthy environment, a sustainable economy and to drive innovation. We will tax pollution – not people.
“Stephen Harper’s leadership deficit is driving us into economic deficit and his failure to manage the economy in uncertain times must not be allowed to continue.”更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
