The prime minister is warning the Public to expect a challenging year As a global economic slowdown looms and the Federal government prepares to introduce climate change regulations on Industry. The Canadian Economys fundamentals Are very Strong. Were very Well positioned Harper said in a year end interview with can West news service. That said we Are an open trading Economy in a world where there is increasing economic uncertainty in the United states Economy in particular but also some other parts of the Globe. We Are not immune to that. Canadians could also feel the bite of Federal regulations that require Industry to reduce their greenhouse Gas emissions the prime minister predicted. The reason no government has done this before Federal provincial or municipal is there is no Way to do this without imposing costs on our Economy in the Short term. Thatus Why All previous governments have talked a great game and shied away from it. Harpers efforts to downplay expectations stand in Stark contrast to his combative remarks less than three months ago when he challenged the opposition to support the governments throne speech or Force an election. Since then popular support for the conservatives has slipped As the government has been forced to stick handle the Mulroney Schreiber affair which centres on Cash payments made to former prime minister Brian Mulroney by arms dealer Karlheinz Schreiber. Nevertheless Harper did not appear worried by reports that Liberal Leader Stephane Dion is planning for a february election. As you know that was the same prediction this time last year and several times in Between he said referring to relentless election speculation on parliament Hill. I dont want to say i dismiss these out of hand but the government has a Job to do to govern. The prime minister also hinted the next budget May not be As loaded with goodies As some expect. The government doled out nearly $ 60 billion in tax Breaks this fall. We will not be throwing around billions and billions of dollars in surplus in this budget. We will be very prudent in paying Down some debt which is what we should do in a time of uncertainty. In a series of year end interviews with the National Media the prime minister sought to soften his image As an autocratic Leader who exerts Iron listed control Over his caucus and bullies his opponents. He also brushed off the suggestion that his introversion has alienated voters. I have no desire to be a celebrity or a Media Star. Ism not in people Magazine talking about my Hopes and fears As an individual he told global National. While i dont go on interviews and unburden my inner soul at the same time i think canadians know about me what most people know about me. I think they know that ism a family Man they know that ism a hockey fan. They know the kind of values i have whether they agree with them or disagree with them. Can West news service Ottawa prime minister Stephen Harper says its up to his appointed adviser to determine if a Public inquiry is needed to resolve the Mulroney Schreiber affair. An Ontario court has thrown out businessman Karlheinz Schr Eibers lawsuit against Brian Mulroney saying it has no jurisdiction Over the dispute. Schreiber filed the lawsuit against Mulroney in March to recoup $ 300,000, plus interest that he alleges he gave the former progressive conservative prime minister Over three meetings in hotel rooms in Montreal and new York in 1993 and 1994. In his statement of claim Schreiber said the Cash was to enlist Mulroney is help in establishing an arms factory in Quebec with a head office in Ottawa and a pasta business in Ontario. The lawsuit claimed Mulroney did not follow through on his business commitments. None of the allegations has been proven in court. Harper promised an inquiry last month into the decade old business relationship Between former Mulroney and Schreiber. But in a series of year end interviews Harper left the door open for his adviser David Johnston to reject the inquiry route. Johnstons written mandate states that he is to set terms of reference for a Public inquiry and its timing and report Back by Jan. 11 not to determine whether an inquiry is needed. The Canadian press inquiry up to adviser Harper says handout / the Canadian press harpers Christmas card shows him silhouetted against a window looking at pictures of himself with others.
