CTV's Mike Duffy on Stephen Harper
In April 2005, Mike Duffy was a guest speaker at the Canadian Real Estate Assn. Political Action Committee days.
Asked a question about Harper not being too media friendly, Duffy replied,"Look! The man is so honest he'd rather walk away from the TV cameras than look in the lens and tell a lie".
If the Duffster knows Harper is honest, why isn't that message being passed along to the Nation instead of to just a few hundred Realtors. Mind you, CTV's cameras weren't pointing at Duffy when he said that and his bosses were nowherein sight at the time either.
So, here we have a honest man, Harper, validated as being honest,by one of the best known reporters in Canada, Duffy, falling in the polls, and we have Martin-- enough said-- rising in the polls.Why would Canadians not want a honest man as Prime Minister?
Only in Canada , you say! |

Phew! I was worried there for a second.
When I read the title of the thread, "Mike Duffy on Stephen Harper", the first thought that came to mind was "Help! Somebody get Puffy off Harper! He's gonna flatten him!" 
Cheers, Derek |

It is obvious isn't it...
Lies, corruption and graft keep Kanada together. Our leading citizens know this because they created the system which rewards them greatly btw.
The rest of us regular slobs have to wait for a messiah like Harper to come along and save us... and what is left of Kanada.

| It's up to us to save this country, not Mr. Harper alone. He needs the rest of us to get off our backsides and work hard to get Canada back on track. The politicans are not going to save us! So let's get to work! We need to help Harper and his people. After all aren't we all on the same team? |

| If you want to see why the CPC is stuck just go to 50+ and read the posts there and if you aren't familiar with the general feeling about 50+ go to the ridicule forum and read the comments - not make more. I wouldn't answer any as they aren't worth answering to because these people have a hard time thinking outside their tiny box but their smear is one of the big reasons that the CPC won't get ahead. Also too many Cdns would rather keep the governing people they most identify with rather than have to actually stand on their own two feet and think straight. |

Are you saying that MOST Canadians identify with people who lie to you, rob you and break every ethical rule in the book?
Have we as a society actually sunk that low? |

I don't know if most Canadians are that way, but there are clearly enough of them to keep the Liberals where they are in the polls.
There are two kinds of Liberal voters - the young and naive, who actually believe the drivel the Liberals put out, and the ones with their own agendas. The latter group want something from the Liberals, which they're afraid that the Conservatives won't give them. Remember that a huge number of Canadians work for various governments, either directly or indirectly. To them, higher taxes are preferable to losing their job security entirely. Virtually every other group is in the pockets of the Liberals, one way or another. Perhaps they're afraid their elderly parents won't be allowed to immigrate, or perhaps they're afraid about health-care. They all want something for themselves.
The Conservatives, on the other hand, by the very nature of what we are, can offer only the opportunity to stand on one's own two feet, without interference from the government. It is going to take some doing to convince the people above that this really is in their best long-term interest, not the short-term gain the Liberals keep promising.

Didn't say most, said too many. If that works out to most, then yes or as Evilgenius says, enough to keep the LPC in power.
Answer to you last question. Not quite but we (in general total) are working on it. |

I don't trust Duffy as far as I could throw him. He's a typical MSM hack. Claim you're unbiased when it doesn't matter, but when the cameras are on, stick it to the conservatives.  |

Absolutely correct. More the shame he knows the truth and difference but won`t stand up and be counted.

I was talking to one of my daughter's teachers on a recent school trip and we got onto the topic of politics. He's a Liberal/NDP supporter and Catholic. I asked him how he could possibly support Martin in the next election knowing that he's a liar and possibly a thief! "Aren't they all?", he claimed. Then I started telling him about Harper and how he could actually trust this fella with the future of this country. That he's honest, disciplined, thoughtful and not afraid to make the hard decisions to get this country out of it's moral rut. I told him to not be afraid to change his vote to the Conservatives. Liberals and their supporters have made this country a joke.
Our priest actually came out and said to not vote for the Liberals! I was shocked! |

Uh Huh
So Mike Duffy whispers some sweet nothings into the ear a selective audience which so dearly want to hear same, and it’s a validation of Harper’s honesty?
If Harper were an honest man then he would be hammering at this hoax of an immigration policy. that has been foisted upon us. The idea was that new arrivals would work and pay into the CP fund to compensate for the “one time” spike in population growth that marked the aging “boomer generation”. Instead we find ourselves paying for the ‘special services’ required by new arrivals of diverse cultures and their relatives and ‘would be’ relatives too soon to come.
But Harper is a politician.
We now find ourselves scrambling to repair an infrastructure woefully inadequate to meet the needs of the massive influx of newcomers – medicine, education, housing, policing, garbage disposal, pollution controls, transportation, etc. And we’re falling short in every area.
A candid admission that the whole idea was a grotesque mistake fostered and nourished by previous governments including conservatives would come close to my idea of honesty. But to do so would be a political faux pas….perhaps.
And Harper is a politician.
To denounce the “cradle to the grave” mentality in no uncertain terms at every opportunity and to present “realistic” plans for the development of self-reliance by the so called ‘vulnerable’ segment of society (a fundamental part of the CSR that Mr. Harris ignored to his discredit while pandering to the ‘ultra right” which led to his fall from grace) would approach the realm of honesty.
But that would bring him flak from both sides of the political spectrum.
And of course, Harper is a politician.
Honesty?

Catholics have a tradition of voting Liberal. I don`t know why but thats the way it is. I fear it will never change.
