The difference between a Liberal and a Conservative

Taken from Alberta Hansard, Monday afternoon, February 27:

Mr. Taylor (Liberal): "...It seems that advanced education has gone from
the penthouse to the doghouse on this government's priority list in the past
year. Not one piece of legislation is scheduled from Advanced Education yet this
session."

Minister Hancock (Conservative): "Legislation is not the only way to create
a priority. In fact, if you don't need more laws, you ought not to make more
laws."


And there you have proof of why the Liberals will never form the government in Alberta, they simply do not get it.

Indeed, the favourite tools of the Klein govt. involve as little public debate and scrutiny by the opposition possible. Who needs democratic debate when we can decide and implement policy and regulation in private cacaus away from the dreary and inconvenient convention of having our rightous ideals questioned by the infidels accross the floor, or, heaven forfend, the public of Alberta.
