Get the Stephen Harper mug.Mr. Stephen Harper is the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, Canada's main party of the right. Mr. Harper was first elected to Parliament in 1993 as a Reform Party candidate and served until 1997. He did not seek re-election in 1997 because he was apparently disgusted with the Canadian Parliament. Instead he became head of the National Citizen's Coalition which is a right leaning advocacy group.
Mr. Harper contributed greatly to the unification of the Canadian Alliance Party and the former Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.
Mr. Harper favours smaller government, tax relief, some types of privitization, respect for traditional institutions, like the military for example, a closer working relationship with the United States, respecting provincial rights (decentralization), and other typical right leaning views. Mr. Harper is a social conservative more than a libertarian.
Mr. Harper has a masters degree in economics from the University of Calgary. Mr. Harper has cited former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney as one of his mentors.

Get the Stephen Harper mug.Related Words
Stephen Harper is the name assigned to the current Prime Minister, although it is only used by people that respect him. Decent Canadian folk call him Harpo or other names with Nazi origins. He used to be part of the Reform Party (even though he was born in Toronto) and is currently the leader of their Canada-wide subsidiary, the Conservative Party. People flirted with this evil and dangerous party in the 2006 and 2008, and Harpo used this time to start picking apart his worst enemy, the Canadian social safety net. In 2011, he committed an electoral fraud even greater than that of George W. Bush in 2000. Now, Harpo is the unquestionable and fearless Supreme Ruler of Canada, with 167 true blue (and green) Reformacon MPs doing as he says.
In case you actually wanted an unbiased definition...
Stephen Harper is a Toronto native that somehow turned into an angry Westerner. In 1993, he was elected as a backbench Reform MP and created the slogan "the West wants in". He left the Hill in 1997 to become head of the National Citizens' Coalition. In 2002 he headed the Canadian Alliance and merged it with the failing Progressive Conservative Party into the modern Conservative Party. He won elections in 2006, 2008, and 2011, winning a majority government in the latter.

Using lies, schemes, cons (no pun intended), deceptions, evasion, libel, slander, and tall tales, Stephen Harper has fearlessly led Canada through our worst years since the Mulroney days. RIP democracy 1867-1984, 1993-2006.

Get the Stephen Harper mug.The prime minister of canada and apparently hated on UD because its full of liberal morons. NO you can't lose your job because day care isn't subsidised. NO he's not trying to make canada part of the usa. NO hes not Bushs bitch. NO hes not a neo-nazi facist ( if he is then dion and his cronies are commies). AND NO hes not stealing from you. One of the best things to happen to the Canada since the liberals cocked it up for so long, but because liberals think conservatives are all gun totin, booze chugin, racial slur spewin rednecks, they automaticly assume hes not a smart guy, but they assume hes a hillbilly moron.
