...a stimulus package we know will get out the door

There are a lot of Canadians who consider an election a waste of money.

Au contraire!

Money spent on elections doesn't just vanish into thin air, it goes into the economy.

Election delivery activities, including fees to election workers and poll officials, printing lists of electors, and renting offices of returning officers and polling sites:$108 million

Pre-election activity, including electoral material and supplies, the training of returning officers and other key staff. Maintaining the National Register of Electors since the 2000 general election, ad and outreach campaigns, support network and information technology support:$111.5 million

From the breakdown it sure looks like it'll help with job creation and create business for companies.

Instead of watching those deceitful conservatives re-announce spending "commitments" and not get money out the door, let's have an election, pump money into the economy and KICK those CONServatives out of here!
