Ignatieff to issue Liberal ‘report card’ on economic plan

By The Canadian Press

OTTAWA – Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff will issue his own probation report on the Harper government’s economic recovery plan later this month.

The self-appointed probation officer won’t judge the government’s performance solely on the basis of its own progress report, issued Tuesday.

Rather, Ignatieff said Wednesday he’ll present a Liberal “report card” later this month, which will go through unemployment and employment insurance statistics “with a finetooth comb.”

I’m so sure it will be laden with big “progress!” happy-faces and “way to go!” smiles.  Bad marks:  “Doesn’t get along well with others!”  “Tends to act like the elected Prime Minister of Canada!”  And of course “Wears sweaters!” and “Too optimistic!”
