Yep...the Conservatives really made us look incompetent.
Just wait till you see the levels of REAL incompetence with the Trudeau regime. But don't worry...the "budget will balance itself."
Oh, and say bye-bye to income splitting. But fire up a blunt with Justin and everything will work out fine.

Liberals, under Chretien and Martin were actually doing surplus, paying back the deficit ...
Here is what your fiscal genious did, during the oil boom and while robbing the unemployment drawer :
Quote:
After producing a surplus in 2007-08 of $9.6 billion, the Harper government delivered a deficit of $5.8 billion in 2008-09 during the global recession.
In subsequent years, his Conservative governments generated shortfalls of $55.6 billion in 2009-10; $33.4 billion in 2010-11; $26.3 billion in 2011-12; $18.4 billion for 2012-13; and $5.2 billion for 2013-14.
To summarize, Harper-led governments ran a string of six straight deficits between 2008-09 and 2013-14.
