ERROR in "One Conservative Voice": A most imprudent slogan
Niagara Falls, Ontario - Friday, January 16, 2004 - by: Joe Hueglin
	"One Conservative Voice", Stephen Harper's slogan, and that of his party when he becomes its leader, is deceptive, fallacious and imprudent.
	Deceptive in seeking to mislead the million and a half Canadians who voted Conservative rather than Alliance or Liberal in Election 2000 that he is at one with them.
	Fallacious in that some former Progressive Conservatives within his party are starting a Red Tory Caucus in opposition to the views held by its majority, while others who have not accepted merger have filed to re-register their party
	Imprudent for the claim made of being the voice of all conservatives will be constantly attacked.
	A claim that can be justified only through defining conservatives as those believing implicitly in the policies of lowering taxes, reducing the role of governments and shifting decision making power from Ottawa to the provinces.
