Less than 24 hours after the Conservatives lost their first attempt to topple the government the Tories are trying again. A new motion being debated Thursday states that the House of Commons has lost confidence in the Liberal government and "offers Canadians the option to axe the tax, build the homes, fix the budget and stop the crime." That's the list of slogans the Tories have been using for months.
