Bravo to Michael Ignatieff.
He doesn't fully endorse the new budget, but he is putting the interests of Canadians ahead of his party and quests for power.
Canadians need another election "like a hole in the head." (His words; not mine.)
And as a true opposition leader he is making sure the ruling party keeps its promises by requesting the Conservatives provide three progress reports throughout the year to ensure the budget is on track.
Unlike some opposition leaders who will remain nameless.
"Today, we learn that we can't place our trust in Mr. Ignatieff in terms of defeating Mr. Harper," Layton said.
Again, he isn't concerned with what's in the best interest of Canadians. He's only thinking about himself and his own fruitless quest for power.

Sorry but Layton is concerned about Canada and our plummeting economy. Fair enough if you think tax cuts work and that infrastructure money that will be left in fed coffers because municipalities have no money to match fed funds will work but lots of economists (including nobel laureates) don't think it will.
Layton has been clear since the fall. The Tory govt is not trustworthy and have no vision for Canada in these increasingly perilous economic times.
Iggy is playing politics by saying he doesn't support or trust Harper while voting to prop him up.
