With the Throne Speech passed and the Liberals scared of the election the Conservatives can now get all the legislation Canadians are positive about approved whether the Liberals want it or not. If Dion wants the government to fall on a bill then the Tories will be wise enough to push through these popular laws first and foremost, and fast if they don't want to allow the Liberals the time to regroup.
When it's time for the Liberals to call it quits it will definitely be on a bill which appeals to Conservative principles, on which the Tories are confident of winning over people's minds. Overall the Liberals' credibility is rock bottom, as is their integrity. I feel sorry for Stephane Dion because he might have bought his party some time, but he is not likely to receive thank-you cards anytime soon. Nor is he likely to become Prime Minister as he so adamantly admitted wanting to during his flip-flop speech on the motion. Nor is he likely to be remembered in history books or be cited as a great politician.
Stephen Harper, on the other hand, will probably be quoted as one of the greatest political strategists of the decade. Proud to support him!

I agree that Stephen Harper will be remembered as a great strategist. First of all, with he has been doing with federalism, the Bloc Québécois (BQ) looks more and more like a party without a cause. Secondly, the throne speech was some kind of bluff. In fact, if the Liberals went into election, they wouldn't progress in public opinion. As for the BQ, I think that more and more people see that it's not of great use, because in the end, it's just co-operating with the government.
