see, this is a non issue.
for a few reasons:
1. no one knows what the final report contains.
the attorney general already said do not make decisions or judgement based on the draft report.
so let's wait for the final report rather than getting excited

2. second, this is clearly propaganda by the oppostion.
it is no coincidence that the report was leaked 1 day before the debate.

3. third and post important, the G8 summit was not a big waste of money that the opposition is talking about.
yes there were some police atocities and innocent people were arrested, but that was the fault of the Toronto police, Toronto administration (under David Miller) and the provincial authorities led by McGuinty.
As far as the summit is concerned, it was a very important brand building exercise by Canada.
how can anyone say we wasted $1B?
for the first time, canada was in the fore-front of the world.
we hosted the leaders of the most important countries in the world today.
we got the opportunity to show off what a great country we have how strong our economy is etc.
stupid people ruin it by protests and whining about costs.

you wanna talk about wasteful expendite?
ok, let's talk about the e-Health scandal.
how much was that....umm...$1B
let's talk about the sponsorship scandal.
let's talk about the hush money paid to deputy health minister ($750K).
the excesses, corruption and waste of the liberal led federal and provincial governments are uncounted and untold.
and for once a conservative govt. spends $1B on showcasing Canada for the world and all we get are stupid misguided leftists protesting all over the city and people whining about the cost.

really? give me a serious break.

and to answer the question : yes Stephen Harper is doing a great job as Prime Minister and a great ambassador for the country and I will have no hesitation in voting for his party.

Harper is running for Federal Election not Provincial. You are giving examples of provincial scandals and when times come Dalton have to pay for them and not Michael Iggy or Jacky should be blamed for it. If you want to equate with provincial scandals then I have to take back to Mike Harris days who sold 407 for peanuts and we are paying for high costs of usage of infrastructure, he was who slashed services in ontario like crazy and downloaded it to municipalities and we are still paying for that AND mind it Faheltry, Baird and Clement are in cabinet of Harper and were also holding same porfolios in Mike Harris cabinet...habits and attitude hardly change. Donit tell me that Mike Harris was PC and Steve is Consv.

Opposition did not release the report, it was media that came up with the report. Why you conservatives always want to be in bubble? Face the fact that you are cheaters as other politicians and you are not so good with artifiical smiles.
