What's your opinion on Stephen Harper?

Question

I have been seeing the stephen harper ads recently on the ole tube. I see people that probably have never even met stephen harper saying that he's a stand up guy and things like that. I personally am not proud to be a Canadian with Stephen in the command. I feel like behind his smile is a baby bush just waiting to sell out to the Americans in a heartbeat. I have nothing against the Americans, but I would like out prime minister that is tough enough to stand up to them and have our best interests first.

I am interested in other people's opinions though. Please be polite to eachother!

Answer 1

Without being partisan about it, I'd have to agree.  Harper is a weak leader who submits to the will of our foreign neighbours over the will of Canadians.  Little public consultation, little accountability.  If I actually thought his decisions were in our best interests, I wouldn't mind so much.

This is the case for others in his administration as well, such as the recent example of MP Jim Prentice.
