Is Stephen Harper the Teflon Prime Minister or will the scandals and economic mismanagement of Canada bring him and the CPC to defeat

Since coming to power in 2006 the Conservative Party of Canada, with Stephen Harper as "Supreme Leader", have been wrought with corruption, electoral fraud, robocalls, and the appointment of convicted and accused criminals as advisor to "The Supreme Leader" yet none of the dung these lowlife slime have inflicted on the Canadian taxpayer has stuck to Stephen Harper............ "YET"

The question is can he and the CPC survive the 2015 election?

Stephen Harpers mismanagement of the countries finances and social programs are coming to light on a daily basis as his adaptation of the 18th century principals of Edmund Burke, a British philosopher, have failed to work in the 21st century. In 2003, when the Reform/Alliance parties merged with the Progressive Conservatives Stephen Harper railed about how the newly formed CPC should adopt the theory of favouring private property and small government and look to society, rather than the state, to solve problems. They should resist public ownership, government intervention, egalitarian redistribution and state sponsorship of secular humanist values. In sum, they should be against most of what Canada’s Liberal governments stood for during decades of power.

What Stephen Harper has forgotten is that the World has changed since the 18th century and to go backwards while the rest of the World is moving forward will not and can not work.

Strong evidence of his failure to understand the modern World is how he shifted the Canadian economy from a manufacturing and science based economy to a resource based economy relying on high oil and mineral prices.... the problem, resource pricing is dictated by supply and demand, the higher the demand the higher the price. In a lagging economy demand is lower and the longer the World economy falters the lower resource pricing becomes.

What the Prime Minister has done is make Alberta's economy Canada's new economy. In the meantime he slashed corporate taxes, government departments and budgets in the middle of a World economic collapse leaving Canada in a very precarious position should resource prices remain low into 2015 and beyond. Lower prices means lower tax revenue across the country yet the Prime Minister insists he can balance the budget in 2015 regardless. It is important that you ask yourself.... How does that work?

The only way to balance the budget is to cut more programs, gut more budgets and tax the working class. In enacting his 18th century philosophy Stephen Harper is abdicating his responsibility to Canadians and to equality across the country. National programs will be picked up by the Provinces putting further pressure on them and creating more "have not" Provinces, more "have not" workers and more poverty.
