The Prime Minister told us he was hard at work - in fact, he was working harder than ever with Parliament shut down. And what does he have to show for it?

A budget that contains no new taxes or cuts, according to Finance Minister Jim Flaherty - so essentially, he has a do-nothing budget (Budget Won't Include New Spending, Tax Measures - Feb. 23);

Photo-ops with orphans in Haiti, where his visit drew away personnel who could have been doing far more important tasks to help the Haitians. He couldn't have called or held a video-conference, while working away for us in his office instead?;

Photo-ops with hockey stars and Olympic medalists.

I guess watching the Olympics was terribly hard work.
