Someone said there are no atheists in foxholes, and just as surely, there
are no libertarians in economic crises. Case in point, the government of
Canada brought down what the party ideologues consider a "far left wing"
(tm applied for) budget, in other words a budget of measures the slightly
more centrist party, the Liberals, insisted were a condition for Harper to
cling desperately to shreds of power.

Why the man wants to run the country at this time completely eludes me.
