Apparently It has to happen because nothing is enshrined unless it’s in legislation, and how else can they get the public to trust them on anything they say or do anymore.
I guess that is the end of that problem, or is it.
It is a legislated law Federally and Provincially that elections are to happen every 4 years and Mr. Harper broke that law not once but twice and now it seems the BC Fiberals will do the same in September, it is also the legislated law in BC that it is illegal to run a budget deficit but miraculously 5 out of the last 10 budgets have been large budget deficits, it is also legislated law that it is a crime for politicians or anyone else to steal from Crown corporations but that didn’t stop individuals from instigating one of the biggest crimes in BC history with BC Rail, in spite of 18 million dollars in legal fees the culprits from that travesty still have not been brought to justice.
I am sure we can all come up with other instances of the Fiberals breaking all kind of laws.
So if and when the Fiberals do manage to get in power again and they run another couple of deficit budgets which at this point seems inevitable, it would literally blow my mind if they did keep this pie in the sky legislated promise, after all circumstances change all the time as they tell us time and time again when they once again do not keep their word or promises.
It also goes without saying that if another party wins the election it is unlikely they would honour those commitments if it meant running a deficit budget.
As the Fiberals see it, it is not a lie if they believed it to be true at the time they made the promise or enacted the legislation.
Which of the two laws do you think they will honour if they have a choice, balanced budget or tax cut, you be the judge.
