 Liberal track record: Waste, theft and intimidation.

Sheila Copps' Great Canadian Flag Giveaway cost some $46 million.

A contract for the purchase of unnecessary Challenger VIP aircraft cost $100 million, but no aircraft were ever acquired. At least another $100 million was wasted on inappropriate contracts, deals and pay-offs.

The infamous sponsorship scandal cost taxpayers some $250 million.

Ottawa inappropriately sent out $350 million in home heating subsidies to deceased persons and federal inmates during the heating crisis.

The penalty paid in order to cancel the Sea King helicopter replacement contract cost another $500 million, and the helicopters still continue to endanger the lives of Canadian troops.

The Human Resources department used $1 billion, but no one knows what for.

Costs associated with the failed attempts to set up an effective national gun registry have almost reached $2 billion and are still rising.

Sheila Fraser, as Auditor General, was unable to complete a financial audit of the Liberal government citing that obligations under the Finance Administration Act simply were not met.

She also found that the Liberal government was in non-compliance with the intent of the Employment Insurance Act, in that billions of taxpayer dollars were raked in and not used for their intended purpose.

Nearly 10 Billion [additional monies] to CSIS and Canada Customs to monitor a "terrorists threat" that is largely exaggerated, and only increases government powers to the extent that ever more of our precious liberties and freedoms are destroyed.

[CSIS was already entrusted with the role of monitoring real and present dangers; now they want everyone who is critical of their lust for power and control of your property and rights <Link.
 

Absolute power corrupts even when exercised for humane purposes. The benevolent despot who sees himself as a shepherd of the people still demands from others the submissiveness of sheep.  - Eric Hoffer
