  The closure of the Experimental Lakes program makes no sense from an environmental or a fiscal perspective. This important program is being cut for purely ideological reasons and is yet another part of Harper’s ongoing war on environmental monitoring. http://glennthibeault.ndp.ca/post/conservative-cuts-to-environmental-research-disastrous-for-northern-ontario

  The Conservatives came to Ottawa promising change. This wasn't the change that most people were expecting. We in the NDP, unlike the Government, think Canadians should be allowed to examine legislative changes in the Budget, which could have huge negative reprocussions from coast to coast to coast.
  Speak out against Harper’s budget
