Edmonton East Conservative MP Peter Goldring may be in more trouble than he thinks he is and the Conservatives know he is. Which may be why Harper announced this today; Tories promise to spend on affordable housing Which is Goldrings file, did they do this to bail him out. Maybe.
But with no mention of Goldring, who has lobbied for exactly this policy, funding the private developers to build low cost housing, (he is a landlord) rather than having 'social housing' provided by the government (socialism), may be not. Maybe they see the collapse of the Goldring campaign after the Stamp affair.
It is a bit bizzare for Harper not to have his Housing expert in with him on this announcement, or even any reference to Goldring. Though Goldring published his own press release about it. And again it is rather humble and indeed sheepish even. With no reference to this being a policy he has promoted for years as the official opposition critic of Homelessness.
Which leads me to wonder if there isn't some credibility to this rumour; Edmonton Sun Killed Article on Goldring, Separatism
He has finally launched his own election web page which is vast improvement on the mess he calls his home page and was his election page until a week ago.
Funniest item on his election web page is this; Click here to read Peter's Unity Page
Peter is very active in raising the concerns of Quebecers in Ottawa.
To bad he doesn't care for Edmonton East concerns as much.
