The Harper Record
This book
is one in a series of CCPA publications that have examined the
records of Canadian federal governments during the duration
of their tenure. As with earlier CCPA reports on the activities
of previous governments while in office, this book gives a detailed
account of the laws, policies, regulations, and initiatives
of the Conservative minority government under Prime Minister
Stephen Harper during its 32-month term from January 2006 to
September 2008.
Edited by Canadian Labour Congress
Researcher Teresa Healy, Ph.D., with contributions
from 47 policy analysts and economists, The Harper Record
documents in exhaustive detail the Conservative government’s
performance over the last two-and-a-half years.
“Contrary
to the general perception that this has been a moderate government,
this book reveals that it, in fact, has taken significant steps
to transform Canada in a very short time. Harper's very conservative
vision has been advanced across a broad range of policies. It
is a deeply troubling prelude of things to come,” says
Healy.
