It was very gutsy for Dion to say the word “carbon tax.” From where he stands, he thinks its the right thing to do.

Whether one agrees with it or not it does show he has principles and leadership especially in the area of global warming.
…………………………………

Not only did Dion say ‘carbon tax’ he also said ‘raise the GST’… which is a rather clear preference to tax and spend. I wonder how many Canadian taxpayers will vote for that …??!!!!

Dion came out of academia, was a low profile minister in the Chretien government where he earned the contempt of francophone Quebecers, and then was grudgingly made environment minister in the Martin government, where he failed big time to make Kyoto a ‘prioritee’.

What has Dion done to distinguish himself as Liberal leader worthy of becoming our next prime minister??

Please remember that his personal polling numbers are disastrous low and the Liberal party polling numbers are mired at ~30% during his entire leadership tenure. Perhaps his ‘principles’ and ‘character’ don’t sell .. ever think of that ..??!!!

I hope he has enough gutsiness to vacate the Liberal leadership after this summer .. or will he cling to it because he is too self-centred..??

Im not in reality….nice one.

Hey why is it that most of the Conservative minsters including Harper are all fat bastards?

Just saying the word “tax” is huge in federal politics these days.

Whether one agrees with it or not it does show he has principles and leadership especially in the area of global warming.
