Rae vows to defeat Harper and his 'right-wing' agenda

STRATFORD -- Former Ontario premier Bob Rae told about 40 area Liberals here yesterday he "can't stand" Prime Minister Stephen Harper and is determined to knock off his Conservative government with its "right-wing Republican agenda."

Rae, one of 11 candidates vying for the federal Liberal leadership, said he knows "how to defeat Tories. I've done it twice."

He was referring to his role helping topple Joe Clark's Conservatives as an NDP MP in 1979 and later, as Ontario NDP leader, teaming up with the Liberals to knock off the Progressive Conservative regime of Frank Miller in 1985.

He described Harper as "narrow and authoritarian and paranoid of the media."
