You
supported this government Peter.
It is a disingenuous statement that deserves some consideration. What is support? Have I financially
supported the Progressive Conservative Party? NO – never! Have I campaigned on behalf of the
Progressive Conservative Party? NO – never! Have I written blog posts supporting
policies that I like – you bet yea! Have I written posts and letters to
the editor, done media interviews, and made comments on public affairs
programs criticizing this government – indeed!
The blanket
statement that I have supported this government is wrong. What I have not done is view the Liberals or the New Democrats through rose coloured glasses. I remain
an equal opportunity pundit who calls each issue as I see it, with frig all
consideration for towing some entrenched party line.
Issues of which I've been most critical since starting this blog have
been the government's handling of communications, its lack of accountability and
transparency, and its zealous if not downright foolish approach to destroying the spirit
of freedom of information legislation.
I have written dozens
of posts attacking the post-2003 administration for its approach to reporters,
individuals, municipal councilors and others.
If I am to be held
up as an example of a supporter, then the PC’s are in deep trouble.
