Conservatives are at Best Only Capable of Mismanagement.

I am puzzled as to what our Federal Government is doing. Perhaps I shouldn't be, after all this particular government hasn't shown a lot of promise when it comes to putting the people first. Their game plan seems to be all about self-preservation and posturing in front of the media.
In the Toronto Star, today, ('Virtually nothing coming' from Tory stimulus fund) there was an article that detailed how little of the money allocated for infrastructure stimulus has actually been released by the feds. The numbers are pitiful.

To be fair, I will also include a link that illustrates the Conservative Government's position, (Flaherty looks for way to end stimulus). So it seems that Harper and Flaherty are ready to unilaterally declare an end to the recession and leave the unemployed in this country to their own devices. This position seems to be echoed by cabinet when, "Human Resources Minister Diane Finley said EI changes were far from a done deal and would depend on the state of the economy." in today's Ottawa Sun.

It appears that it is long past time to consider the competence of our current government. I am ready for an election on these issues. It would be an expensive to be sure, but the Conservatives clearly have no plan and leaving things as they are is potentially more damaging than not.
