The surge of the NDP here in NL is a provincial political matter. Still, here in St.John's East, we have both an NDP member in Paliament as well as in our House of Assembly.

Not condescending at all. We have an NDP member here in St.John's Center for both the provincial and federal delegates. However, I don't see the surge of the NDP here in NL as anything but a provincial matter. PM Harper is not involved in the next provincial election.

Not sure what you meant by your posting, jimbotelecom.

Paix, mon ami.

Why would anyone lay blame for an act of fiscal responsibility? Reassessing the contracts in light of ability to pay is a good thing not a bad one.

Simply put the "Support the Troops" Government took a mere 6 years to realize their error. Mismanagement. Let the troops down.

More to follow.

Perhaps if one is an anti-Conservative type, negativity is built in?

naw, even conservative commentators like John Ivison & Tom Flanagan ripped into the government on how poorly they handled this procurement on today's power & politics.
