We need real political reform in Canada to stifle the corruption inherent in our arcane system of 'top down' rule by the political elete. The over-the-top corruption of Mulrooney and the gangsterism of Cretien should not be tolerated. A form of proportional representative democracy, with the government adhering to the election promises as much more than gingoism must be more than a dream.
Martin wanted to stretch out the election call into April (to his advantage). They can still pass important legislation and be on the hustings when Gomery hits. That report will have far greater impact during a campaign than it would otherwize.
Unfortunately, with Quebec almost exclusively BQ, the West strangely fascist (I don't remember what Mulrooney's goonies call themselves now), it is the '905' corridor north of Toronto where the minority? government will be elected. Those are the same morons who voted that nasty Mike Harris in twice.
Apec assault on free speech was Creten showing that he was not the protector of Canadian rights. PMs should be sworn to uphold Canadian law. He should have been turfed over it.
The Liberals have let the RCMP run amok in the intel field, an area in which they are incredibly inept. Everybody appears to be screened from responsibility by 'national security'. What a farce. On open, tolerant society may be hurt by terrorism, but never diminished by it.
No one has yet explained why Martin's steamship company was granted $160,000,000 while he was finance minister. Why the company was allowed to register their ships to 'flags of convenience' and thus avoid compliance with Canada's environmental protection laws on ship breakdown. I don't see Martin standing up to the Americans at all. Just making a few off-the-cuff comments for sound bytes and then on with the pandering.
As for Harper. The toady is waiting his marching orders from Harris, Manning and Mulrooney. All they want to do is to destroy Canada's social fabric by privatizing medicine, bash the poor to give their income to the rich, protect the interests of the corporate elete and spend huge money on military acquisitions (foreign made) so they can run off and crush the next country the U.S. must invade.
