PM must 'cut the jargon' on recession talk: opposition

Article


"We'd like to know what the difference is in the prime minister's mind between a 'technical' recession and a regular recession, and in particular, whether that makes any difference to the hard-working families and middle-class Canadians who are trying to get by in the real economy," Layton said.


I can help you with that.

A "Technical Recession" is where you say "Don't worry. Yes, we are facing some difficult times ahead, but we're well positioned, we can get through it. We just have to do a little belt tightening and yes, they'll be a rough two or three years , but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. There really is no reason to panic."

A "Regular Recession" is where you say "THE SKY IS FALLING THE SKY IS FALLING EVERYONE START PANICKING RUN FOR YOUR LIVES LOCK YOUR DOORS BAR THE GATES THE SKY IS FALLING THE SKY IS FALLING !!!!"

Simple , really.

Sadly , the opposition parties are so intent on making the government look bad that they are happy to cause a panic in any way they can. They simply just don't care, as they demonstrated during the election and as they continue to do so now.
