Abandoning the UN declaration is the Liberals’ first broken promise to Canada’s aboriginals, but it’s a whopper. It will have to be followed by others.Dear Aboriginal Peoples... try not to take this to heart. I mean, Justin's broken all sorts of election promises to the rest of us as well.
The best-intentioned government [which no one is suggesting we have here] couldn’t possibly deliver on it all. So Trudeau will have to send more ministers to explain that, sorry, we may have made the promise but we can’t keep it.
Remember this nose-stretcher?
"The Liberals had promised the lost revenue from their “middle-class tax cut” would be offset by a new tax bracket for income of more than $200,000. Federal sources confirm the numbers do not balance, which will add to government deficits in coming years."And there was this...
"Gee, those Liberal promises are already disappearing. The new Veterans Affairs Minister, Kent Hehr says Canadians must have misheard if they think the Liberals are committed to re-opening the nine veterans offices they explicitly promised to re-open during the campaign."And, of course, there's "proportional representation."
