Flaherty's budget:
"The free-market Conservatives promise to make it illegal to charge Canadians more for products that are cheaper in the U.S. by giving the Competition Bureau the mandate and powers to go after clear price gouging. It’s not clear what would qualify as price gouging, but details are expected in the next few months."
"...The budget also pledges to give the CRTC and Industry Canada the power to fine companies that break the CRTC’s new Wireless Code of Conduct and other competition rules. The government has targeted big cellphone service providers recently, running an ad campaign questioning their prices and quality of service."
Does this sound like a party committed to the 'free-market?'
Aside from being one of the biggest spending governments in history, sounds to me they're like any statist party.
Competition Bureau my ass. Sounds like something right out of Communist Russia.
That's right. Give more powers to the damn, fricken CRTC.
Now I have three parties I can't trust or have policies I don't connect to.
