The only good thing about triggering an election this summer is that it would, as Kelly McParland put it, "put the stimulus program on hold indefinitely."
Uhhh no it just means the stimulus would be touted as being Liberal next time.
"The recession worsened under Conservative bungling, no matter how much of your money they threw at the problem they couldn't fix it…but within months the Liberal party got Canada back on track." or something like that.

“A fascinating read” --- Seamus O'Regan, Canada AM
“I really enjoyed Loyal to the Core. It’s a great book”, - Charles Adler, radio host.
"Loyal to the Core should be required reading for anyone considering or starting a career at a conservative think tank or in electoral politics in general …Consider Loyal to the Core a cautionary tale that’s also a funny, easy read – with a few highly “stealable” ideas for media campaigns thrown in for good measure.”- Kathy Shaidle, author Tyranny of Nice
“Every Canadian remotely interested in politics and the state of the country should have a read of Loyal to the Core. – blogger Wendy Sullivan

No kidding. If the economy is improving, why does it matter if the stimulus money is being spent slowly?
Perhaps it should be spent even more slowly. Or not at all.
