The base will continue to push, and we'll see if it alienates Quebec in the by-elections.

Or else...<BR/><BR/>Look, if Harper wants an election he does not need to get Dion's permission.<BR/><BR/>If Harper wants to talk about the parliamentary session, Dion will meet with him before parliament begins (which is a real deadline not an artificial one that Harper or you has made up).<BR/><BR/>But ultimately, who cares? Why not just stick with the truth. <BR/><BR/>Harper wants an election now to avoid an embarassing parliamentary session. He wants an election. Then call the election.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12086209664270723549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28460837.post-20531418561614179802008-08-26T00:31:00.000-04:002008-08-26T00:31:00.000-04:00Aaron, Dion had a 13 day window.It's 11 days ...Aaron, Dion had a 13 day window.<BR/>It's 11 days until the 5th. Surely he can pick up a phone in the next week & a half to give the Prime Minister of Canada a few minutes of his time.wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03589410224972050999noreply@blogger.com
