According to a government source, Canadian Prime Minister Harper thinks there are long-term risks from the various financial rescue plans that countries around the world are adopting, but realises in some cases countries have no choice but to take some of those actions to prevent something worse from happening. Right on both counts. Here in the UK I’m just waiting for the powers that be to wack up the taxes i pay. At least they’ll hold off till we see some sign of recovery taking hold, but it ain’t going to be pretty when it comes.
