Michael McCafferty comments:

I congratulate Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party, and Jack Layton of the NDP and Gilles Duceppe of the Bloc Quebecois for having the political courage to bring down the Liberal government.

Canada will now go into a General Election campaign, and it is my hope that Canadians will feel like I do that "it's time for a change" -- after 12 years of the Liberals it is truly TIME FOR A CHANGE.
