BAY STREET • Stockwell Day's victory in the Canadian Alliance leadership race has brought a new level of scrutiny to his policies and personal views. He has been tarred and feathered as intolerant and divisive by a desperate lynch mob of mudslinging radical left-wingers, including prominent Liberals and Preston Manning.

But Mr. Day has already struck back at his critics by outlining a bold plan to promote tolerance, equality and respect for money in this country. He also pledged to amend the Canadian Charter of Rights to implement his dollarcratic vision once he becomes prime minister.

"The Liberal government has shown an evil arrogance and disrespect towards citizens' wallets," said Mr. Day, "and my government would not only stop that policy but make it illegal in the future."

"It's a crime that Jean Chretien and Paul Martin have willfully and wantonly discriminated against the people who build this country-- the wealthy. Every day they brazenly and outrageously steal more out of every dollar earned by hard-working and self-sacrificing rich people than they take from the useless dollars of indigent protesters, homeless bums and lazy welfare moms," claimed Mr. Day.

Mr. Day said he believes in Tom Long's solution of "big powerful tax cuts for the big and powerful," but says he is worried that tax cuts, however huge, can be reversed at a later date by perverse politicians.

"I will protect future generations of billionaires by enshrining the inherent rights of money into the Canadian Charter of Rights to ensure that each and every dollar is treated fairly and equally by the government of the day," he promised.

"This constitutional amendment will outlaw discrimination against the money of successful people," Mr. Day explained, "and will stop the tax and spend hooligans from looting and pillaging the elite engines of our economy."
