Harper's First One on One Interview

the IRPP has an interview with Prime Minister Stephen Harper nad it's his first one since his election apparently.

Note the response that Harper intends to govern until 2009. That may change when the Afghan mission goes to a confidence motion. The mandate set by the Conservatives to govern though to 2009 could only work if the opposition let them govern, otherwise if the coservatives actually held fast to their mandate the oppostion could effectively enforce a lame-duck Prime-ministership.
