Corporate Welfare

There is a reason the Conservatives chose not to help with the stadium in Quebec. They stated the reason publicly. It would have singled out only one team. The Conservatives would have loved to give corporate welfare to billionaire sports team owners. It is a fundamental belief and commitment of the conservatives to help the super wealthy by redistributing tax dollars to them. If only the Conservatives could have figured out a way to help all of the super wealthy at one time...Oh! Wait! They did that. It is called tax cuts for the wealthy. In this case the Conservatives did the correct thing for the wrong reason.


On the other hand it is inappropriate for the Liberals to promise to pay for the Quebec stadium. It is clearly a vote getting move aimed at sports fans. It would be a Liberal sell out to big business for votes from sports fans.


The Green Party thinks differently than the traditional, conventional parties.
