Good article, treats everyone equally. Politicans usually have their interest at heart and if our interests coincide with theirs all the better. There are many of us but we con't count very much in the scheme of things. This article talks about the Libs. and Cons., that leaves the NDP but aren't the a socialist party. I am surprised but really know almost nothing about the NDP.

Are there any solutions to this problem? Just voting on election day is not enough!

Honestly beav, I don't believe you read the articles. I think you read just enough to assume that you had the jist and made an erroneous assumption from there.

I find the article to be bi-partisan and quite indepth. It takes shots at the right and the left equaly. Exposing and laying claim to several things you, yourself have claimed and stated several times.

The bi-partisan (ad populum) approach is often used to mask the true intentions of the new world order and thier origins, big money, now there's nanny for you, a suit of common sense for the revolution
like Premier Harris's snake oil show of the past. Nothing revolutionary about screwing the poor and the weak is there?

Yeah that pisses me off the criminal has more rights than you. You basically can't defend your self in your own home anymore. Unless you kill him and there's no witnesses.
The charter of rights tried to read it once long ago it was all greek to me. Why is laws and rights written in such a way that the mere layman can't read them?
Its funny about the gun registry how it cost so much, and yet they can keep track of every pig on the pork industry at a cost of .30 cent a pig , need to recheck that . but

The law of killing someone while under the influence ia 14 yrs firm, yet to my knowledge not one bozo ever paid that price. Even committed that very same crime again. What the Hell!
Politicians should be accountable and more severly because of "abuse of power"
Judges too if they were elected would work harder to keep they're jobs.
Bear thats alot to read half way through tho. back later with the rest. :read2:

If the Charter was supposed to be OUR charter, then why didn't we get a vote? Everyone knows that elected reps do the bidding of their party first in Canada. Given that important watershed legislation like this, that will govern the smallest aspects of our daily lives, should go to a general vote, why didn't it happen? This country doesn't belong to its politicians. It belongs to us. I'll still be asking for a vote 'til I expire. Canada is small change as a democracy. We deserve better.

Bear i think I'll do my part and join
It seems to flow with my own frustrations of this country. Screw the sovereignty of Quebec , they'll
never really get it if Canada isn't sovereign.

Who am I?


I am a professional Canadian artist of more than 42 years. My ancestry is Irish and Anishinabe Ojibway. I believe in the Constitution Act of 1867 and I love my country.
I am not a member of any political party in Canada, provincial or federal, nor am I associated with any political movement. I have voted Liberal, Conservative, Progressive Conservative and Social Credit at one time or another during my life. Throughout my career I have never applied for nor accepted welfare, unemployment insurance, or government grants of any kind, preferring instead to raise my family through the sale of my work.
What you read in these pages are my opinions. I am accustomed to speaking my mind on issues and enjoy a good debate. This website is my attempt to do that with a wide audience of concerned Canadians. If you disagree with me then challenge me on the facts. That is what the blog is for. I do not expect us to agree on everything. The world is largely black and white to me and I know it isn't to everyone.
TakingCanadaBack.ca is funded solely by me. If you would like to support me in this effort, which is considerable, please consider purchasing a signed and numbered limited edition canvas reproduction or print, or making a small donation. If not then that's okay too. Not everyone likes my style of painting nor can afford to donate. Your opinion is worth more to me anywa

Bear I visited the site and I agree with half of the mans platform, as I agree with half of yours.
Right in the middle of his introduction he punches me and millions of others in the face when he points out his perfection and the weaknessess of those not able to do as he has done. No man or women who does not right at the beginning swear to uphold and protect the weak and the old the sick and the disadvantaged of our society will ever get my respect. You cannot build a worthy nation on rugged individualism and condemnation of the weak. He says the world is largely black and white to him, that is not a good recomendation, nor will it suffice to bring about change.

Maybe if we dug Trudeau up and hanged him you could get some rest. There's nothing sillier than a women attacking the people who made it possible for her to read and work.If the right had prevailed this would not have been the case.:wave:
lmao
Is there something hallucinogenic in that bark you eat? Long before Turdeau did his bit about screwing up the country, my mother and an aunt got their educations in nursing (you had to have at least grade 12 for that which meant that they had to be able to read, too).

The NDP are just as fickle as the Liberals but are a front for union organisations. Both the Cons and the Glibs bribe them for help.

Don't bother discussing the articles on the merits of events and facts; go after the messenger (author). Pretty tough to see articles dance, but messengers ......... :D

I'll take it. :) Fix it so normal people can live in it without interference from oligarchical, bombastic, pompous, demagogues (from any of these silly parties.):D Skip the benefits, I'll accept half the salary and do all that on one condition - that no-one interferes with my project and I get help when I ask for it. :)

I believe in looking out for the weak and supporting a social safety net, but to what extent? To the extent that the weak need not better themselves? Try? Apply? Assist?

The "want" of the weak should out weight the need of the strong?

I'm not talking about big blind corp's here. The strong, the unwashed masses that huddle into mass transit at the break of dawn and scurry off to work to provide for them and theirs, while the weak sit and grow lathargic and weaker by the minute. If you are able to work and be productive. Then do so. The only people that should require the safety net, are those that can not assist themselves. But to have teenage mothers bilk the system for a life time and do nothing but produce more welfare cases, is beyond all reason.
I have no argument about the articles merits or facts, just the direction.Which is what? Take back Canada and give it to who?
ME!!!

YOU!!!

US!!!

The ones that work day in and day out, the ones that want to live, produce and thrive within a productive society, not be a leach upon it!!!
