World Economic Woes: Canadian PM blames US financial woes on 'irresponsible' policies

Canada's Prime Minister Stephen Harper on Thursday blamed the current US financial crisis and its worldwide fallout on "irresponsible" policies. "The economic and financial mess in the US is disastrous and the policies have been irresponsible," Harper said during a televised political debate ahead of an October 14 vote. "In the US right now, let's be clear, they are bailing out the banking system because of misregulation. We are not doing that in Canada," he said, dismissing accusations his Conservative government has not done enough to bolster Canada's slowing economy.
