Changes

In 2007 Harper promised Canadian farmers over $1 billion Canadian dollars in farm subsidies but at the same time is pushing to remove the [[Wheat Board of Canada]], a government group that controls the prices of wheat and barley, a move which farmers believe would cost the Canadian farming industry billions of dollars in lost revenues. The [[United States]] also wants the Wheat Board of Canada removed from power because it claims price fixing is unfair to free-trade. Wheat exports to the United States account for only 10% of Canada's wheat production.

Although Mr. Harper is a member of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, a conservative evangelical Christian group, he has not reintroduced captial punishment, sent Canadian troops to Iraq or banned gay marriage.  He has however introduced reforms limiting Canadian gun control laws and may be able to implement a more conservative set of policies if his party wins re-election with a majority of the seats in the Canadian parliament.

Although Mr. Harper is a member of the Christian and Missionary Alliance, a conservative evangelical Christian group, yet amazingly he has not reintroduced the great practice of captial punishment, sent Canadian troops to Iraq/Iran or banned gay marriage, or other Jesus approved ideas.  He has however introduced reforms limiting Canadian gun control laws and may be able to implement a more conservative set of policies if his party wins re-election with a majority of the seats in the Canadian parliament.
