The Premier likes to point out the success of his last such letter during the 2004 election.
Here's what actually happened:
The PM didn't respond to the letter. He stayed at the negotiating table and worked out the deal the Premier eventually signed.
Stephen Harper flatly rejected the premier's ideas on every level. If you doubt me, I'll post Harper's reply.
Jack Layton is the only guy who endorsed the Premier's position to the "t".
It'll be interesting to see what happens this time out.
