The last I heard they were peddling arms all over the Middle East and to some of that region's most repressive regimes. You know, the more I think about I think we're going to have to put them all in prison... ;)Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-3974182551110896782014-02-06T02:54:42.774-05:002014-02-06T02:54:42.774-05:00hi warring parties...look as I said I understand h...hi warring parties...look as I said I understand how everybody is angry and the good news is your both right. Both the young and the older generation are to blame for the situation we find ourselves in. But I don't want the generations to fight themselves because we need to unite both of them to fight the Cons. And as I saw with my own eyes during the Quebec student protests, when they do unite NOBODY can stop us...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-42314837083334267312014-02-06T02:49:10.419-05:002014-02-06T02:49:10.419-05:00hi CK...it certainly seems that way, and now not j...hi CK...it certainly seems that way, and now not just because of desire but also because of necessity. The Globe and the Star have also had layoffs, people who are desperate do desperate things, and I wouldn't be surprised if Big Oil is circling over them all like vultures. I'm afraid that after reading that Postmedia presentation I can't help feeling that the editorial integrity of their operation is fatally compromised. What we are going to have to do is support any progressive MSM outlet we cad find, and of course become more of the media ourselves...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-83113775515170814252014-02-06T02:43:27.050-05:002014-02-06T02:43:27.050-05:00hi anon...I don't blame you for feeling that w...hi anon...I don't blame you for feeling that way. The situation is bleak the Cons have never been so ghastly. It is a nightmare. But I think you and my friend Thwap are underestimating the strength of this still young country, and the built up anger of so many of its citizens. It will be a hard struggle to dislodge those scumbags from power, and after that we will have to pressure a progressive government or coalition to start fighting back at the globalization conspiracy which won't be easy either. But we can't give up, our country and future generations are depending on us. And starting sometime in 2015 we can start the rebuilding process...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-79592290537556015932014-02-05T22:40:34.583-05:002014-02-05T22:40:34.583-05:00The only drooling idiots I'm referring to are ...The only drooling idiots I'm referring to are you and your fascist friends who elected harpie in the first place, you old fucking fuck! And I'm 63 years old and I resent mealy mouthed, weak minded old fucks like you and all of your goddammed rightwing, sniveling, groveling semi-senile pals who believe in fucking idiots like don cherry, conrad black and sun news. Try and remember that on election day and do the right thing this time grandpa! With friends like you, Canada doesn't need any enemies.

The m.s.m. in this country is almost as big a joke as it is in the u.s. It is already controlled by corporate money. The CBC is already dead. You can see it in the kind of "programming" changes they've already made. Now the changes in the new "law" that hit Elections Canada almost insures a larger con majority after the next election. Maybe harpie can make the koch brothers senators too. He has appointed every other fucking crook he knows.<br />The Canada you speak of, Simon, is in its death rattles right now. I think, like Thwap, that the time for redemption has already passed us by. We let the cons take us past the critical mass point some years ago. The cons have stacked the courts with right wing fanatics that will do their bidding so that, even if we did get off our lazy asses and mount a challenge to some of the sick shit harpie calls "laws", we would be summarily handed our asses in the courts anyway. papa bush and reagan and thatcher taught harpie a lot about how to build his "perfect government" and while he may be a psychopath, he isn't a stupid one and he was/is paying attention. Don't be too surprised if, like Gingersnap said the other day, there is no next election.<br />R.I.P Canada. Hello NWO and NAFTA and NAU and TPP.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
