Liberal grip ‘precarious,’ Tory’s MacKay says

Read what Deputy Conservative Leader Peter MacKay had to say today regarding the failure of his party to topple the Liberal Party’s government yesterday:

Deputy Conservative Leader Peter MacKay said Friday it’s unlikely the Opposition will try again to topple the government right away, but a razor-thin confidence vote victory this week suggests the Liberals’ grip on Parliament is “very, very precarious.”

“We’ll likely get through this session and we’ll be back in the fall,” Mr. MacKay said in an early morning interview with CTV News.

Well, Paul Martin out-politicked Stephen Harper and the Conservatives.

The Conservatives will probably dump Harper and hope that the Gomery Inquiry findings in the Fall stir up a moribund Canadian electorate.
