That would be what our Prime Minister is pleading with Canadians to do with him and his government, as he does a publicity stunt with his GST cut today in the GTA, which as Impolitical mentions, surely didn’t save any money for those living in that area. Economists have already panned this cut as being [...]

So, if anyone was wondering, it’s been a bit quiet here today because my mom’s side of the family were getting together for our family Christmas - we found that holding it after Christmas meant more people could make it.
