I don't care if you paid a million dollars in taxes. I paid a hell of a lot of taxes last year too. I just don't toss them down like you and say look at me I payed $$$$$$ with an air of arrogance.

The run to the can reference has no bearing on how much your cleaner business or [whatever it is] payed in taxes. It has to do with individuals bitching about the cost of paying for a military. In other words, when Canadian Soldiers spend hour after hour sandbagging or fighting fires I don't hear much whining. But when they're 5000 miles away in a foreign land enforcing a no fly zone for the UN in 30 year old jets the whining is unreal. Perhaps if the whiners had to take a ride in an aging aircraft like a sea king they might have a better understanding of the risk involved.

I know you don't agree with Libya, good for you, that doesn't make the job any less risky.

Where did I complain about spending money on the military in general?

Northern Ontario,
Neither are you.

Why am I heading to the can, I paid 153,000 in tax last year.
A couple of years ago, to prove I wasn't bullshyting I posted the portion of my tax assesment that showed the tax paid and refund with my last name and half my S.I.N. blacked out....

I wouldn't expect as much from this fella Mark:lol:

In general includes equipment for Nato/UN operations.

If we are in a state of war and an earthquake levels a city the priority is to the state of war.

Sorry, that's just the way it is.

No it dosen't.

Considering my position on intervention.

When healthcare and education are improved and we are no longer borrowing money for future generations to pay for it I see no need to buy F-35's.

You however want to run around the world rescuing kittens from trees so I can understand why you would want them.

In that you could at least say you'd forgo a tax cut or take an increase to pay for them.

Like buying $25 breakfasts for M.P.s :lol:

50 billion - 25 = um.....deficit solved.

How bout we stop funding Political Parties?

Maybe we get the CBC of the Government Teet?
Stop funding crap like Little Mosque on the Prairie or Cash cab or Canada's Worst Driver.

Here's an idea why not take a hard look at our health care system and open up private practice for those who can afford it. Maybe add a surcharge to Emergency Room $10 or $20 bucks so that people with the sniffles don't clog up the ER.

Hmmmmmmm we could iksnay the gun registry.

There a many places we can get rid of waste and still maintain our National Defense.

When you get islamists like the Toronto 18 running around blowing up buildings all over Canada, I don't think Heatlth care is going to matter much . The reason we have things like Heatlth Care today is because of the sacrifices our military have made in the past.

The one thing about Liberals, is that whenever there are bad people doing bad things, the Libs like to look away and pretend it is not happening, or they will just ignore the problem in the hope that it will go away by itself !!

No you didn't, stop trying to make yourself feel important.

Sure.

Not sure I'd support that, the CBC offers many things the private network does not....but maybe a reduction in funding.

I've already advocated a switch to the French system.

Hmmmmmmm we could iksnay the gun registry.

Why? The money has been spent.

There a many places we can get rid of waste and still maintain our National Defense.

Yep, maintain, but not pay billions more.....not only that, how about we stop prancing all over the world at the exspense to tax payers and Canadian lives to solve other peoples problems.

If you want to increase our capabilities to respond to a Candian problem like the Quebec ice storm sign me up....otherwise...nope.

Do you know of a politician who isn't a liar?

I have no evidence any of the other leaders have lied. Do you?

Oh, and I suppose the word of a separatist is indisputable ! No skin in the game ,,,eh,,,like who is paying his way, Quebec's way??
Stick to the p post system, you'll be further ahead !!

YouTube - Harper - NDP - Bloc : 2004 Coalition?

In this case, the word of this separatist is indisputable. The PPost system is what has taught me to keep my mouth shut until I'm aware of the facts. That way, I don't look foolish. You should really try it sometime.

Poor bastard. I paid 253,000

I have no problem spending money on National Defense. Tell us how Afghanistan and Libya are defensive operations. I support our military - bring our people home before anybody else gets killed for nothing.

It looks like the p post system has failed this time, it probably fails many times, but if you choose to believe the results under any circumstances, well, what can I say !!

Well, on second thought, I don't think I really care what it does for you !!

The people over there don't believe it is for nothing. I'm guessing they know more about it than you.

You should care about what it can do for you. Well, on second thought, I don't think you really care how stupid you look. I guess a signed document from Harper is as good to you as the separatist's word.
