SKB you seem a tad delusional. Harper took us thru a meltdown in the world economy. While our neighbor to the south was adding 10 trillion of debt we were adding 1/6 of that based on population.
For most of those years without that huge stimulus we had better growth. meanwhile Ontario was doing everything it could to ruin the outcome. If you look around the world and the rest of the G7 during that time they added dramatically more debt than we did also with less growth. Meanwhile the USA increased their money supply by close to 600%. Then we have your buddy Jr promising 10 10 4 and last year balanced. We now learn with slow growth he will over shoot that forecast by 500% and close to 125 billion after 4. Yeah that harper decade was really lost. Keep dreaming and drowning in Jr debt.
