Harper has achieved more from a weaker position than any conservative leader of recent times. Under desperately precarious political circumstances -- and in the face of the worst global economic crisis since the 1930s -- Harper achieved remarkable things. Almost 1 million more Canadians are working today than before the financial crisis -- the best employment record in the Group of 7. Incomes have recovered and surpassed pre-recession peaks. Canadas national debt burden is lower than that of any other major economy -- and less than half that of the United States. Corporate tax rates are lower in Canada than in the United States, and on the present trajectory the same may soon be true of personal income taxes as well. cnn/2013/10/28/opinion/frum-conservatives-harper/index.html
