The ghost of Mike Harris rears its waste slashin' little head

Three senior members from former Ontario premier Mike Harris' cabinet are also standing for election. Tony Clement, Jim Flaherty and John Baird all handled major portfolios in the Harris government and will likely do the same in any Harper cabinet if elected.

For anyone that lived through the Harris years in Ontario, the above has to sound quit disturbing, especially Clement and Flaherty, who made that infamous quip about throwing the homeless in jail. Nice guy, huh?

Then there's Stockwell at the helm of Foreign Affairs. Enough said I think.
