Mr. Ignatieff, I know that your strategy is to release your platform idea just prior to an election and not before. Your logic is that the Cons will spin your ideas like they did the Green Shift.
However, by not releasing your plan you have left the stage in the hands of the Cons who can ascribe anything they want to you as your hidden agenda and all the denying in the world will not help you.
There is not a single thinking person in this country who believes that Canada can eliminate the budget deficits that will build up in 2008-2011 without a new source of revenue or cutting programs. To waffle or deny that given is just downright dumb. Canadians want to be treated like adults... even some of the Cons... so do it. Have a dialogue with them but make it an honest dialogue. Then when Harper attacks -- and he will attack -- he will look like the liar that he is.
