No kidding. I always thought that was all *any* politician cared about.
Do you realize that the Tories have broken every non-trivial election promise
except for one? They said they'd implement Free Trade, and have done so.
They've broken every other promise. In record time, too.

It's a disaster. I see a tax revolt on the horizon. You would think the Tories
would have paid attention after the trouncing they got in the west in the last
election. No, I'm dreaming. Western Canada is not part of Metro Toronto, and
is thus a priori irrelevant to federal politicians.
