By giving what is in effect unconditional support to the Conservative government's new budget, Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff has squandered an opportunity.
He has missed a chance to force Stephen Harper's government to markedly improve Tuesday's budget to plug gaping holes in its approach to recession and eliminate small, but loathsome ideological leftovers slipped into its back pages.
The Liberal leader's requirement that, as the price of his support, the government provide three updates over the next 11 months is meaningless.
