CON MP David Anderson on the virtues of proroguing and other BS

Dear Ms. S. :

I thank you for your letter. I wish you a Happy New Year and the best for 2010.

Prime Minister Harper continues to show the exceptional leadership that he has so capably demonstrated in the past. In a few short years he has restored Canada's pride both domestically and internationally. No longer do we have to be embarrassed to call ourselves Canadians as was the case so often under the previous Liberal government.

From the beginning our government has been clear as to its goals and objectives. We have campaigned on very specific issues and then carried them out. Prorogation allows us to once again come before Parliament to lay out our direction for the country for the next year or so.

This will allow us to build on the tremendous accomplishments of the past year. Taxes are lower, the economy is stable and you are keeping more money in your own pocket because of the leadership and vision of Stephen Harper.

As for the Olympics, this is just one more event that will raise Canada's international profile. Although I would love to be there with so many other Canadians, I will not be attending. I will be working in my riding and in Ottawa and look forward to addressing the issues that are important to the people of Cypress Hills-Grasslands. Once again, thank you for taking the time to express your concerns.

Sincerely,

David Anderson,
MP Cypress Hills-Grasslands
