You really don't understand politics do you?
All political parties will implement a tax if people are stupid enough to ask for it. As soon as it looks like a winner they will devise a tax. The party faithful will vote for them anyway and they will pick up the gullible fool vote for free.
The only tax a conservative would agree too is one to help subsidize industry companies :lol:
Taxes will save this world
Our environment is so much better sinse our city charges a tax on using pesticides on your lawn.
No one stopped poisoning their lawns but the revenu from the tax hasen't helped fix the thousands of litres of crap we keep dumping in the water!!!!
Everything IS related to money. And if politicians and bureaucraps are involved it equals taxes. People that work hard to not much feel like sharing with those that are too lazy to work.
No, that's just something that naive conbots believe.
Don't be angry.
Enjoy the posterity.
Then Vaillancourt capped his day with his unprecedented takedown of the ruthless gang in Harper’s PMO, words delivered from the bench and destined to live in posterity to be studied by historians and political scientists.
The real intrigue of the case was the inner workings of the Harper PMO and it is yesterday’s news, a government sent packing six months ago, now a historical relic.
There you have it. Poor Mike. The problem that wouldn’t go away for Harper’s operatives.
It collides with the image of the cocky, verbose, self-preening Duffy, but as Vaillancourt asked: “Why is the PMO engaged in all of this activity when they believed that Senator Duffy’s living expense claims might very well have been appropriate?’’
Somewhere Thursday night, Pamela Wallin slept soundly. And Wright, eight months removed from his bible-quoting, altruistic explanation for his role in this case, should be tossing and turning.
Duffy is clear, but condemnation of Harper PMO is there for posterity: Tim Harper | Toronto Star

If this is your holy grail that proves everything you thought about Harper was true, Then you are as neive as everyone thinks and says you are :lol:
If this was the mans biggest mistake, Then the guy was fairly clean compared to all the other pm's. :lol:
Mulroney taking million in bribes for weapon sells. Now that's the kind of smoking gun you need to find kido :lol:
This mean spirited stuff about Harper is a joke :lol:
14million in sponcership scandal. That's some real smoking gun.
Upon doing a bit of thinking on this matter today and wondering how he could legitimately get away with all that crap, it struck me that lawyers and judges etc. are just another layer of bureaucraps with a lot of similar rules and red tape that Duffy is bound by and it's likely they have to be careful not to f**k things up for themselves, so to condemn Duffy would be tantamount to treading on dangerous ground.
Put another way..........."there's honour among thieves"!

LOL In 2 or 3 years time (maybe even sooner) people will have forgotten who the judge was, what he said and some may even have forgotten Mike Duffy.
Canadians have made it clear that it's not about the $$$, it's about policy and trust.
The public had doubts about Harper during his entire tenure - from the moment he entered office until he was ejected.
He had a policies directed primarily toward the economy and the country soundly rejected that one dimensional frame of governance.
He actually didn't lose that much of his previous election votes floss. Layton was dead and didn't split the left vote like he did in every election Harper won. :lol:
Sometimes it's so apparent how stupid you are in your post it's fun just reading and realizing how dumb you really are :lol:
Like I keep mentioning, It's appreciated. We value your stupidity. Keep it coming :lol:
Poor MentalFloss, not the sharpest tool in the shed :lol:

Here's some Rona Ambrose in tight leather to make you feel better.
:lol: thanks Floss, Your the gift that just keeps giving :lol:
In other news. Harper has been found less corrupt then a Carpenter working for cash while on EI. :lol:
if the level of corruption we are talking about was, he used a secondary address he already owned to be legible to be senator from PEI. my God!!! And then they tried to hide it !!!! :lol:
A real smoking gun MentalFloss :lol:
Based on this information we may be able to prove that the Harper government was the least corrupt government to ever hold office in Canada.
They were mean spirited, and controlled everything. Looks like it worked to keep things from getting corrupted I'd say :lol:
It's called running a tight ship
When you run **** loossy goosy, that's when millions and even billions go missing.

Yes, thank you for posting the stuff I already posted.
Can you tell us again, how very little corruption we had under Harper. :lol:
Duffy's clean.
Which means somebody has to be dirty.
Somebody orchestrated this political show trial.
Somebody decided to go for a full-bore prosecution with no fewer than 31-charges.
Somebody has been lying ever since the day that Duffy's unfortunately email was leaked to CTV.
There's no plausible denial left for Stephen Harper. Not this time. Not after Duffy was acquitted of all 31-charges. Not after what Justice Vaillancourt had to say about this "mind-boggling and shocking" scheme. The judge didn't just pronounce Duffy "not guilty," he found him not remotely blameworthy. Duffy wasn't acquitted, he was exonerated. There's a legal dynamic at play in that.
Nigel Wright is no longer everybody's Boy Scout. No, now he's another Tory Dirtbag. Ray Novak?
The Senate Tory leadership who participated in this scheme, including LeBreton, Tkachuk and Stewart-Olsen?
About the only one of the principals who comes out unscathed is Ben Perrin, the whistleblower. Whether he acted out of principle or merely saw the writing on the wall we may never know. Perhaps it doesn't much matter.
Former PMO lawyer says Tories have 'lost the moral authority to govern' - The Globe and Mail
What a fitting way for Stephen Harper to leave federal politics - in utter disgrace.
What we got today was a glimpse at his actual findings. For example:
“The political, covert, relentless, unfolding of events is mindboggling and shocking. The precision and planning of the exercise would make any military commander proud.”
The judge concluded the PMO designed a scenario to have Duffy repay, even if it meant Wright handed over a cheque. It “was not for the benefit of Senate Duffy, but rather, it was for the benefit of the government and the PMO.
“This was damage control at its finest.”
Benjamin Perrin, ex-PMO lawyer, believed Harper OK'd details of plan to repay Duffy's expenses - Politics - CBC News
I'm shocked !!!! It's shocking !!!! This likely puts Harper as the least corrupted government in Canadian history.
We're is the 14 million in sponcership scandals? Or the hundreds of thousands taken in weapon deal bribes?
This is it? Harper tried to have Duffy's 90 000$ senate expenses payed with Conservative party money? Boy this is really underwhelming.
