Stephen Harper and the Conservative party in Canada
01/29/2009
The elections in 2011 give the Conservatives under Harper a clear majority in parliament. Another change is the emergence of the New Democrats (NDP) as the main opposition party in parliament. The Conservatives won 40% of the vote, gaining seats in Ontario because of the split of the left-of-centre vote between the NDP and the Liberals. Harper plans to govern in the way the Conservatives did when they were a minority party, and plans no major changes.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
