More than a few could wind up arrested and put in jail. they might want to get out in front of this one because once this leg. is passed and they disagree with "warrior leader/hide in the closet" P.M. or any of his agents, they could be in jail. <br /><br />This leg. can be used in any number of ways. It could be used against people who commit crimes, not anything to do with "terror" as we have traditionally thought about it, but say a riot, such as we had in B.C. Those people under the new legislation could be charged with terrorism. Think about it. Your kid winds up in a riot and instead of being charged with stealing, breaking windows, burning cars, they are charged with terrorism. Don't think it can't happen? Just wait and see what stevie boy does with this legislation. Remember this is not, in my opinion, a man who plays with a full deck. This is a man who leads a party which a few years ago was referring to environmentalists as terrorists, so welcome to a protest against a pipeline and being charged with terrorism.e.a.f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-18700189601022275402015-02-02T12:02:22.008-05:002015-02-02T12:02:22.008-05:00In 2015 VOTE.

She comes from the libertarian branch of the Con conspiracy, via a right wing institute in Montreal. So maybe her libertarian instincts are overwhelming her Ayn Rand tendencies, and what she says is true. The opposition is going to have to be very forceful and very smart, or many Canadians might indeed stick with the devil they know, and that would just finish off this country...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-28912218646316174102015-02-02T07:06:02.300-05:002015-02-02T07:06:02.300-05:00hi Gentleman James...the decision would have been ...hi Gentleman James...the decision would have been made a a lower level than Lacroix, but he is the Con leader and his managers and some editors are only too anxious to please him...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-55834258556714325212015-02-02T07:04:31.869-05:002015-02-02T07:04:31.869-05:00hi anon...you make a good point, why didn't th...hi anon...you make a good point, why didn't the CBC and other media report the story. My guess is because they thought the story would be too much about them. When in fact it tells us some things we really need to know about the Con regime. However I wouldn't be too hard on the CBC, it still has some very good reporters, but its management has been terrified by the Cons so much they are practically paralyzed, like a small animal caught in the gaze of a cobra...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-936712460036957322015-02-02T06:59:35.915-05:002015-02-02T06:59:35.915-05:00hi Hugh....presumably they're talking about OU...hi Hugh....presumably they're talking about OUR values, for the Cons lost their moral compass a long time ago, and our Canadian values know no worst enemies...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-30120434393105031502015-02-02T06:58:09.584-05:002015-02-02T06:58:09.584-05:00hi anon...yes that's one of the biggest proble...hi anon...yes that's one of the biggest problems with the Con regime's new terror laws.

No word at all from the CBC or any of the other MSM. Recall that in the case of Dear Leader hiding in the closet, there was also no word about it from the CBC although the other papers were reporting it. Took the CBC a week and then it was to report Closet Leader's apology to his caucus. This should open the eyes of those who still think the CBC is still worth saving.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-82132507352188634632015-02-01T15:29:44.148-05:002015-02-01T15:29:44.148-05:00"Our values are under attack".

I would pull the dog out of the way and look into the cave. At cave's end was a trapped animal, hissing and spitting and displaying dangerous teeth. That always scared the crap out of me. It was the real thing. I would leash my dog and pull him away to allow the animal to escape.<br /><br />That's how I see Harper now - a trapped animal in a rock outcrop. And he has done so much damage to the landscape, the country, that I think Canadians should forget the leash and let the dog complete its instinctual job.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-87008105209456453992015-02-01T12:08:38.773-05:002015-02-01T12:08:38.773-05:00To defeat Harper "we are going to need bigge...To defeat Harper "we are going to need bigger flag" Liz May should start dressing in a flag suit, just to mock Dear Leader without risking what the Dippers and Libs would.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14162783936999869984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-78687872448555610592015-02-01T11:54:39.151-05:002015-02-01T11:54:39.151-05:00What Steve fails to realize is that he and his con...What Steve fails to realize is that he and his con clown show are the real terrorist threat to Canada and more and more Canadians are waking up to that FACT.
