Ian Lee: Ottawas Carleton University

Ottawas Carleton University: From installing long-promised defibrillators in hockey arenas to extending an olive branch to small lending institutions and hospitals that were hit with tax hikes, the Tories are playing catch up, said Ian Lee, a professor at the Sprott School of Business at Ottawas Carleton University, according to 660 News. When every vote counts, its a bad idea to target non-profits like credit unions and caisses populaires, which are prominent in Western Canada and Quebec and fiercely supported by their members, he said and The federal Conservatives appear to be tying up loose ends and doing some damage control from last years budget as they look ahead to deliver this years austerity-driven fiscal blueprint. At the same time, its little things that can also turn people away from them, he said. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
