How predictable
The Paul Martin Liberals are so predictable - the day before the dreaded Gomery Report is to be released, they announce exciting things to draw attention away. Well, actually, they announce huge spending projects that tie up billions more of the Government's purse. This time, it's speculation about a relief plan for the softwood lumber industry. No details, mind you, but the Cabinet is definitely thinking about it, and they thought they'd let us know right at this moment, to keep us informed - they don't know how much it'll be yet, but it's coming. Really. It's really coming. And the other thing was that they'll be spending $3-billion on improving conditions on First Nations reserves in Canada. Not now, mind you, they'll actually spend the money probably later in the month. But they're really thinking about planning on spending that money. They really are.How predictable - when will it stop? I've certainly stopped being captivated by these sleight of hand tricks - I wonder how many other Canadians have as well.
