VANCOUVER -- Conservative Leader Stephen Harper doesn't have very much nice to say about Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty.
In what was supposed to be an off-the-record chat with reporters on his campaign plane Tuesday night, Harper said he was surprised to see McGuinty campaigning with Prime Minister Paul Martin. As he finished the conversation, which was reported by some media on Thursday, Harper said he wouldn't want the Ontario premier backing him up.
As well, Harper noted that two Atlantic premiers, New Brunswick's Bernard Lord and P.E.I.'s Pat Binns, don't like the Liberals in Ottawa.
He says he was even surprised at how strong Binns came out in attacking the federal government recently over equalization.

To coin a phrase "You dance with them that brung you".
