Are you and yours better off today than when Harper rode into town?

The answer is going to be no, for persons with union or private pensions, retirement savings, businesses depending on credit and equity markets, dependence on the Canada Pension Plan, requiring a mortgage, needing insurance, buying a home, seeking shelter, requiring government investment in social programs... living...

Timing says some of us won't notice the impact of the great Canadian market crash of 2008 until weeks and months have passed, but we'll all notice in time.

Harper has slashed government revenues while revenues were climbing. Now they are going to fall... dramatically so. Ask another question: what will Harper slash next, and will it impact you and yours?
