What they're saying about Harper's budget:

"Today's federal budget leaves hundreds of thousands of vulnerable Canadians hanging on a very short rope and won't provide the immediate stimulus our economy needs."
— Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives

"It's pretty clear from their decisions on employment insurance, infrastructure spending, and tax cuts, that the Harper Conservatives are just not up to the job."
— Wayne Samuelson, Ontario Federation of Labour

"The lack of investments dedicated to public transit will make it a challenge for transit to meet the growing needs of Canadian communities."
— Michael Roschlau, Canadian Urban Transit Association

"The federal government missed an important opportunity to help students and their families."
— Katherine Giroux-Bougard, Canadian Federation of Students

"This budget was a serious disappointment and I think Canada is missing an opportunity that virtually every other industrialized country is picking up on."
— Aaron Freeman, Environmental Defence

"We're quite concerned. The fact that the most vulnerable haven't been protected with appropriate changes to the E.I. program is very problematic for all cities. Secondly, there's real challenges in the infrastructure funding."
— David Miller, Mayor of Toronto

Remember how much money Obama raised through $5 - $10 donations from the Americans during the US election? Through all of that money he was able to buy a large amount of air time to reach out to supporters and spread the truth across TV. Well now it's time to do our part in Canada, the coalition needs our support financially. The Conservatives are a power house when it comes to money, with their riches they've been able to spread lies through the media and by other means, but it's time we strike back. Please take the time to donate $5, $10, $15 or even $50-$100 to the NDP, Liberals, or both. What ever you can, please donate. Donations are tax deductible so you will get much of it back.

If you choose to become a member of one of the parties, you'll get a cool membership card to put in your wallet! I myself have a Liberal Party of Canada membership card and it makes me feel proud to see it every time I open my wallet! :)
