"Oh, and I must scold Ms Taber for this throwaway paragraph in the Globe story I linked to:

The Liberals lost badly in the last election, partly as a result of Mr. Dion’s complicated Green Shift plan that would put a tax on carbon. It was not communicated well; Canadians did not understand it.

The Green Shift was NOT complicated: carbon taxes up, other taxes down. What's so hard to understand? Indeed, it was a model of clarity and precision when compared to the muddled schemes that the Conservatives and the NDP were selling."

Too bad the "journalists" around here (and elsewhere) don't have the stones to say that enough about any of your "colleagues" when they make the same baseless assertions, over and over again.

That's because it's in your interests to make the rest of us feel that were too stupid to understand simple things.
