Editorial: Liberal-NDP deal good for = Canada


The first thing Canadians should consider in = assessing=20 the $4.6 billion agreement reached by Prime Minister = Paul=20 Martin and New Democratic Party leader Jack Layton in = an=20 attempt to stave off a snap election is not the = political=20 issues at play, but rather the makeup of the package = of new=20 initiatives at the heart of this controversial deal.=20

Conservative leader Stephen Harper has labelled = the=20 agreement as "a deal with the devil" and says he wants = to "put=20 this government out of its misery at the earliest = possible=20 opportunity," which could be within weeks.

We disagree strongly with Harper. In the = Star's=20 view, every element of this package is good for = Canada, good=20 for Ontario and good for Toronto.=20

That's because the deal will help poor people = find=20 decent housing and students cope with higher tuition, = give=20 more money to cities to fund public transit, spur = energy=20 efficiency and increase foreign aid.

Certainly, it is hard for anyone to argue = against a=20 $1.6 billion commitment to build affordable housing = when so=20 many people, including the shamefully large number of=20 neglected Canadians who live on our streets, don't = have the=20 money to get them a decent place to live.

By the same token, it is difficult to argue = that the=20 federal government should not try to help heavily = indebted=20 college and university students. The $1.5 billion that = Layton=20 and Martin agreed to spend on a modest tuition break = is worthy=20 of study, although as former Ontario premier Bob Rae = said in a=20 recent report on Ontario post-secondary education, it = is=20 reasonable to ask students to pay a share of rising = education=20 costs.

We are also encouraged by the move to boost the = share=20 of the federal gas tax that goes to help cities from 5 = cents=20 per litre to 6 cents to fund public transit. Beyond = that=20 proposal to help curb pollution and greenhouse gases, = the deal=20 contains an additional measure to spur energy = efficiency=20 through an incentive to help low-income Canadians = retrofit=20 their homes.

Martin and Layton have also agreed to = strengthen=20 Canada's commitment to the developing world with a = $500=20 million increase in foreign aid.=20

There also is a concession from Martin to put = $100=20 million into a fund to protect the pensions of workers = whose=20 companies have folded.

The best thing about these worthwhile = initiatives is=20 that each of them would improve the quality of life = for=20 Canadians who can use the help.

The second best thing is that it seems no one = has to=20 give anything up. Layton had proposed Martin finance = the $4.6=20 billion deal by rescinding corporate tax cuts worth an = equivalent amount in the February budget. Martin said=20 yesterday that would not be necessary. He said he = would=20 reintroduce the corporate tax cuts in a separate piece = of=20 legislation on the condition that Harper agrees to = support the=20 move.=20

That offer has certainly raised eyebrows on Bay = Street.=20 Martin would have to show Canadians how it could be = done=20 without sending the country back into deficit. If he = can do=20 that, it is hard to see how or why anyone would want = to defeat=20 a plan that would make the country better off.=20

On a political level, however, some Canadians = will=20 accept Harper's argument that the deal with the NDP is = a sign=20 of just how desperate the Liberals are to cling to = power.=20 Martin's critics will portray the proposed new = spending as a=20 bid to buy Canadians off with their own tax dollars, = and make=20 every effort to paint it in the same light as the = sponsorship=20 scandal.

But all that is to deny a fact of life in = Canadian=20 politics that many Canadians say they like. Whatever = its=20 stripe, every minority government since Confederation = has had=20 to make deals with opposition parties to stay in = power. Of all=20 people, Harper should know this. Think about the $4.6 = billion=20 in corporate tax cuts in the budget. Corporate tax = cuts were=20 not part of the Liberal platform in the last election. = Yet=20 they were put in the budget seemingly to win Harper's = support.=20 Harper believes more tax cuts are needed to keep = Canadian=20 businesses competitive with U.S. firms.

Harper was an immediate fan of the Liberal = budget and=20 said he would support its passage =97 until he decided = his=20 party's interests were better served by trying to = defeat the=20 government over the damaging testimony coming out of = the=20 Gomery inquiry into the sponsorship scandal.

Having lost his Conservative ally on the = budget, it was=20 only natural for the PM to seek out a new ally in = Layton to=20 get the budget through. In demanding a price, Layton = only did=20 what any good opposition politician would do in a = minority=20 situation.=20

Canadians have benefited from such deals = before. That's=20 why they seem to like minority government. We believe=20 Canadians will like this deal, too.
