Look, the only way the federal government can cause a slow down is by either drastically slashing the budget or significantly raising taxes or by placing severe restrictions or a combination of all three. The Conservatives didn't do that. They DID place fiscal a fiscal straitjacket on the government through the GST cuts, which may make it harder to deal with the current situation, but that is not the same thing as causing the slowdown in the first place.
