ZERO Experience Is On Its Way

December 3rd, 2008 Posted in Canada Election

From the Ottawa Sun (means that maybe one of the blockheads in question may have read it)…

In the words of the coalition’s communique yesterday, a new coalition government is required immediately to “effectively, prudently and promptly address these critical economic times.”

The genius of speeding aid into to economy by changing governments is about what we should expect from a professor, a socialist and a separatist.

… If the GG rules in favour of a coalition, she would insist that the three opposition parties test their deal with a confidence vote in the Commons.

That could take days, especially since the Conservatives will do everything possible to thwart it.

Now we are into the week before Christmas.

If the vote passes, as it would, the country may well not begin the process of changing governments until the New Year.

The transition from the Martin Liberal government to the Harper administration in 2006 took almost three weeks, and even then it was rushed.

The new coalition government would then have to decide on a new cabinet, and swear in 24 new ministers, including six from the New Democrats.

Until that moment, no one from the new coalition government will be allowed to see any confidential documents, much less the mountain of briefings needed to begin drafting a federal budget.

ZERO EXPERIENCE

All of the new NDP ministers and many of the Liberals appointed to cabinet would have zero experience running a government department, much less mastering their portfolios.

That usually takes months, even for junior portfolios.

The coalition would be lucky to have a budget worth anything before March.

Heck, by the time the coalition gets its act together and starts cutting cheques, it may well be time for Dion to make way for the new Liberal leader.

Let us pray that if the government falls next week, the Governor General will tell Curly, Larry and Moe to give their heads a slap.


Great plan they have for us, isn’t it? Good thing they are looking out for us Canadians.
