Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa Vox Populi: Q.E.D.

There you go, fellow Canadians - this is what you get for electing Harper and his Harpies twice in a row:
Tories face $10B deficit, report suggests

Canada risks running a $10 billion deficit in the 2009-2010 fiscal year if the re-elected Conservative government fails to stitch a "looming fiscal hole" that is already raising the spectre of higher taxes and possible spending cuts, a report suggests.
I wont' say that maybe we should get out of Afghanistan in order to help ourselves in stemming the red tide of deficit spending - especially when considering what this FUBAR has been costing us so far.

No - instead, I will only ask this simple question to all of you my fellow Canadians: care to venture a guess as to how high the deficit will be in, say, two more years of them fiscally responsible and spending restrained (neo)Cons running our country?

We have only ourselves to blame ...
