Good post. Shrugging off this budget - as they did the last one, and the throne speech, and 7 or more votes - appears to have been the camel that broke the straw for a lot of Liberals. A quick scan of Prog Blogs today shows it. Who knows, maybe voters will use the four by-elections in Liberal-held seats next month to send a message of no confidence in the Liberal Party. Usually by-elections are a referenda on the government -- but these can be referenda on the Harper government's coalition partner. Course, there's always following the lead of Francoise Boivin into the NDP -- the one party that is standing up to Harper. Ha! Good post.
