They'll do the public fan fare and hope that no one reads the fine print. Even then they think after a short while the public won't be interested and the MSM will certainly help in that. Tyrants aren't aren't interested in doing the right thing, only in aquiring power. Harper feels he does not have to explain anything to Canadians. He's just following his authoritarian agenda as he gives the finger to Canadians. Harper doesn't govern, he pursues power. Everything he does I see in that context. We have a real live dictator on our hands!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07842215982128591742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-27735363936395760332014-11-29T09:04:07.936-05:002014-11-29T09:04:07.936-05:00hi thwap...you're right, they've got money...hi thwap...you're right, they've got money for everything, including $600 million of porky ads, and what I'm sure is a hugely ineffective but massively expensive campaign in Iraq, but they have kept mentally ill people waiting for help for years, They are beasts and that is all...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-45981533718863962972014-11-29T09:01:19.961-05:002014-11-29T09:01:19.961-05:00hi mogs...he is trying to buy votes, but the vets ...hi mogs...he is trying to buy votes, but the vets were already wary of the Cons, and after this they won't trust ANYTHING they say...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-29236292071335451202014-11-29T08:59:26.742-05:002014-11-29T08:59:26.742-05:00hi David...It's the deception that shocks me. ...hi David...It's the deception that shocks me.

I've never seen anything like it, everything thing they do seems to be engineered for deception. And is carried out in a moral vacuum. So they shouldn't be surprised if people accuse them of acting like criminals...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-60895286213970531412014-11-29T08:51:50.350-05:002014-11-29T08:51:50.350-05:00hi anon...as I said in my post I simply cannot und...hi anon...as I said in my post I simply cannot understand why the Cons would act this way, it doesn't make any political sense. And it simly isn't decent, or the way people should be treated in Canada. But as i always have to tell myself, don't get angry just get even. And do what you can to defeat the Cons and drive them out of office.

Now if you divide the $4,000,000.00 by 52 weeks you get ~$76923.08 weekly and if you divide this weekly figure by seven days of the week you get ~$10,989.01 per week day. Is that enough for our vets?

"<br /><br />but then it turned out later the amount was to be spread over 50 years, same as this time!<br />Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09811694143714068436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-58744018925162892922014-11-28T18:18:14.178-05:002014-11-28T18:18:14.178-05:00Harper intends to drag this out for as long as he ...Harper intends to drag this out for as long as he can. That way, many more of our Veterans will have passed away.<br /><br />All dictators have very similar characteristics. Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini were all paranoid control freaks. They all lied, deceived, were corrupt, thieved, used dirty politics, dirty tactics, were sociopaths and all of them cheated to win. Harper's personality, fits the same profile.<br /><br />I often wonder, what do Harper and his cabal tell their kids? When I talk politics with my, little six year old Granddaughter. There is no guile nor greed, just what is right and what is wrong. Mind you. My Granddaughter is already doing grade three so, she certainly has the edge on Harper.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
