Conservatives lukewarm to BCE deal

Election first, takeover later
Theresa Tedesco Chief Business Correspondent, National Post


A certain unease must be settling over the business community as the Harper Conservatives are showing more and more that they aren't really that Business-friendly.

Under Chretien/Martin, Liberals would just say the usual patrotic stuff, then they would just let companies do whatever.

But the Conservatives are more vulnerable to attack on issues like this, and the old Reform base still has significant influence in the party.

So, Liberals are in fact far more big business friendly than the Conservatives. Something to keep in mind when corporate donations comes around next election.
