"Liberals wrong on the numbers
08 January 2006

"OTTAWA – Paul Martin is trying to change the channel from the scandal that is enveloping his party by attacking the Conservative fiscal plan.

Okay Harper - answer the question - let's go! I'm unlike most of your subscribers in that I am actually going to read more than the headline.

Last election, Paul Martin claimed: “I know the figures. I spent nine years as minister of finance.” (Liberal Party Press Release, June 14, 2004)
In the spring of 2004, Paul Martin predicted a surplus of $1.9 billion for fiscal 2003-04, and used that figure to claim that the Conservative 2004 election program was not affordable.
As everyone now knows, the real surplus turned out to be $9.1 billion, and Martin’s claims about the Conservative platform were wrong.
Martin is using the same words today as he attacks the 2006 Conservative platform: “I know these numbers,” he said. (Canadian Press, January 8, 2006)
Martin was wrong in 2004, and he is wrong now.
Paul Martin has been consistently wrong on "knowing the numbers." ":rofl:

This is not an answer

Because the PM underestimated or held back on numbers until the budget (when he has to open the books)... does this give Harper a pass on why his election platform is $42 Billion in debt from an $18 Billion surplus the Liberals are projecting with their platform, or else Harper & the Cons are going to be making cuts to social programs he has yet not named?

Just answer the question: Harper will you sink us in the bathtub or not?
