A last-minute recovery in Liberal support may have deprived Mr Har Air Max 90,er of 20-30 extra seats. That has made the task of governing harder. But he has scope to strike deals, issue by issue. He will focus on five main policy pledges. These include cutting the sales (ie, value- added) tax, initially by one point to 6% and later to 5%, and giving all parents of under-fives C$1,200 ($1,025) a year nike kobe vi,for childcare. Both these giveaways are popular. Mr Harper insists he will stick to the Liberals' policy of balanced budgets and low inflation. Such is the strength of the economy that he can probably meet both sets of promises.
Two other proposals are fairly uncontroversial: tougher sentences for gun crimes; and a kobe 6, w to clean up government after a small-scale corruption scandal. His proposal to allow patients to seek private treatment if the public Medicare system is too slow will face greater opposition.
Mr Harper learnt from the 2004 election when Mr Martin
scared voters off by painting him as an extremist. This time the Conservatives adopted a moderate face. At least while he is in a minority, Mr Harper is unlikely to place much emphasis on moral issues. He has promised a free Cheap reebok shoes,on whether to repeal gay marriage legislation, but is unlikely to touch the abortion law. In foreign policy, he will offer warmer relations with Mr Bush, but has otherwise been vague.
His hope will be that after 18 months, he can go to the country again to secure a majority. That is what another Conservative leader from the west, John Diefenbaker, managed in 1958. If he succeeds, Canadian politics may then move more sharply to the right.
Two things will help Mr Harper. After two elections in less than two years, Canadiakobe 6 grinch, are unlikely to welcome another soon. So the opposition parties will be reluctant to bring the government down.
Second, the Liberals will be preoccupied with their own problems. Despite their successful economic management, they were punished by voters because they were seen as having grown too comfortable with the perquisites of okobe 6 grinch,e. Mr Martin, an effective finance minister, was a disappointing prime minister.
