Post Canada Budget: Harper Stays or Harper Goes?
So, we're two days away from Stephen Harper's unveiling of the budget in Canada. A month and a half later, it doesn't sound like the coalition talk is dying down, so... fellow Canadians: do you think his budget will be sufficient and adequate for the Liberal/NDP/Bloc coalition, or did Harper just delay the inevitable?

Hey, Canadians have political talks too.

i think harper should go simply for the fact that he suspended parliament for 6 weeks to protect his position. That's your tax dollars at work people. Your tax dollars ... at work.

He should be replaced, but not by the coalition. Leave it up to the people to decide. The majority of voters may have voted against the Conservatives, but that doesn't mean they want a coalition. I sure as hell don't want the Bloc having any power in the government.

majority of the people voted but that doesn't mean they wanted harper either as a minority govt.

coalitions are part of most parliamentary systems. this is nothing new.

I'm betting it'll pass and we will enter another era of mutual deterence in parliament.

Probably another general election in the fall (late spring at the earliest, depending on the circumstances). I think the coaltion is pretty dead, imo.
