Good 1, In between man..
Your Perspectrum of Canada is very colourful...
Elizabeth May is a very Trust Worthy Politician( That would be an oxymoron if it wasn't for the too few good politicians like Ms.May ).She has worked very hard to get where she is...Becoming the First Federally elected Green Party Leader..Quite an achievement.
Seems like Every-time I skim Cpac, Or virtually attend a committee meeting, she is in attendance taking notes and giving her piece/peace.
She is a very involved Lady, of Whom I have had the privilege of meeting during my days in the Green Party(while learning the gist of politics)..The Country needs more Politicians like her..
Her main issue, right now, is this China Deal Harper will probably sign off on...Lady May wants to ensure the deal is good for Canada/Canadians...An issue that could have a huge(negative)impact on Canada's social/economic future for generations to come..Canada/Canadians need to know what this deal will mean for Canada..Elizabeth; speaking on behalf of concerned Canadians, has raised legitimate concerns..
One of my own concerns about this China deal is with wages and labour...I am not a great supporter of oil and the mindless, wasteful, reckless reaping of non-renewable resources, that all too often, comes along with such industries. However,... Oil companies do tend to pay well...
My concern with this china deal, is that once Canada(Harper Gov.) begins to open the door to China (and other/Powerful/"communistic"/"Republican"/"Capitalistic" countries) Oil Labourers wages will begin to fall, along with 1st world living standards, in an attempt to compete with China's industrial business sense(low wage slavery), and Migrant workers will be called in at lower wages( which in turn are higher wages to Chinese workers)....ultimately leading the way to a lower standard of living and collapse of competeing markets.While Gas and Oil prices Canadians Pay will likely continue to rise..
Just 1 concern I have ..
Harper needs to reassure Canadians that this deal is good for Canada and Canadians...Ms.May will make sure these and other Canadian Concerns are confronted..
China and other Countries may have a lot to offer Canada ...But Canadians need to know what those benefits are..
You got me rantin' Dark Beaver ...Way to go ....Just take it as retaliation for your tasteless Hitler Comment.

Why would Capitalistic Marketeers want to invest in a country; like China(Sorry China; No Offense Eh), if it will be at their own countries peril ?
China has a very great big pile of manufacturing capacity the west cannot compete without weapons because that's all we make now
any way. China has lots of gold. Gold is good. Big good. China also has a lot of business history and it can operate empires pretty good and there's lots of skilled Chinese. It's a big country. Those capitalists you mention made China what it is today for the express purpose of sucking the guts out of the west leaving the inhabitants to weak to give chase to the stolen future. I'll remember not to try a Hitler joke on you from here on out. I understand some people don't think Hitler was funny. He 's dead you know so he can't get us It is safe to laugh. Of course you're not anything like Hitler, he was a lot shorter than you.
