To hear Christy Clark speak of the virtues of Jim Flaherty and how he was such a great Canadian for getting our country's budget balanced made me sick to my stomach. Don't get me wrong I am sad to hear of his death, in a humanitarian way. He had family and friends who have suffered a great loss. But to suggest what he did was something spectacular by gutting and cutting our country's services to the point we see systematic failures within every aspect of our communities and then proclaim we have a balanced budget, is truly ridiculous.
