Show detail Hide detail

This episode of Primetime Politics begins with host Peter Van Dusen outlining the highlights of the federal election campaign so far. NDP Leader Jack Layton announced that the NDP would not bring in any new taxes, or new tax cuts, but would instead focus on priorities like long term care for seniors, affordable education and skills training, and improvements to the public health care system. Conservative Party Leader Stephen Harper unveiled the Conservatives' day care policy, which would give families with children $1200 per year, per child under 6 years old, to spend as the parents see fit. The Liberal Party, on the other hand, would move $5 billion to the provinces to fund regulated daycare centres. Liberal Leader Paul Martin says this difference in the handling of child care funding highlights the clash of values between the parties in this election, and the choices Canadians must make for the direction of Canada's future. Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe apologized for saying he hoped the Liberals would disappear from Quebec in this election, explaining that he did not mean for his words to hurt anyone. Next, SES Canada Research Inc. President Nik Nanos joins Van Dusen to analyze the CPAC-SES nightly tracking polls, which indicate support for the political parties and their leaders across Canada. Van Dusen is next joined by Susan Smith, the Liberal Party strategist, Bill Pristanski, the Conservative Party strategist, and Brad Lavigne, the NDP strategist, to discuss topics including what the poll results mean in the context of the campaign, the differences in the Liberals' and the Conservatives' child care plans, and health care. Finally, Lee Farnworth, the Liberal candidate for Ottawa West-Nepean (Ont.), Jason Kenney, the Conservative candidate for Calgary Southeast (Alta.), and Mark Leahy, the NDP candidate for Ottawa-Orleans (Ont.), take phone calls from viewers who are responding to the question “Are the policies of the parties giving you clear choices?”<58mn 30s>
