Harper should cut MP pensions first

 

 
 
 

What a unique idea: start cutting back on pensions of those most likely unable to afford any cuts, or delay their pension for two years.

I suggest the Prime Minister Stephen Harper can start by cutting back the pension benefits of our MPs. Then maybe the rest of us will follow his example.
