Having lost any claim to the government-accountability vote, PMS and company have apparently also blown any chance of winning the approval of big business, coming under fire from the Canadian and Ontario Chambers of Commerce in the same day over different issues. Which, if it reflects anything resembling the views of the Chambers' members, seems likely to signal an end to the prospect of a Con majority.
After all, one has to figure that the Cons' hopes of improving their current standing rested largely on their using the trappings of power to win solid backing from the business establishment. But with that effort apparently failing and the party's Lib-assisted Quebec support drying up, it's hard to see who's left to even make up for the votes the Cons have already alienated, let alone add to the Cons' 2006 total.
