Look Risus we are not talking about diner and expensive wine, we are talking about rightful contributions to each party, contribution that have nothing to do with over spending, but rather it has to do with a f idiot control freak that will not last.....

Take off your blinders: People can contribute whatever they want to a party of their choice. In case you were not aware, the federal government gives funds to each party. That is what the government wants to cut. Wake up!!

Good Day to you Socrates! By "rightfull contributions" you mention above, are you reffering to
the $1.95 each party has been receiving recently from the tax coffer? If so, how is this rightfull?
Nothing is stopping anyone from giving up to $1000.00 to any political party that they choose.
How long has this "right" existed, and what happened before that "right" was thought up?

Riverse the scenario, if the Liberals were in power and did that to the Cons what would you say then? and even if the Feds are appropriating doe to help the other parties sustain them self’s why is that a waist? Harper’s motive for that is simple,
Starve them so they can’t fight. Man I don’t have any blinders on......You must do…………

PO & Co...been meaning to ask, what's this acronym for?

Tonington...I don't know who started this but...Steven Harpers name was changed to
"Harpo" (a play on the Three Stooges) which for whatever reason was shortened to "PO."
The "& Co." I suppose could be anything from the Conservative Cabinet, to all Conservative
Politicians, to all Conservatives, to anyone who happens to not think in the same way as
whomever has resorted to name calling.

Hi Ron great evening to you, 4 parties are about to vote down this stupidity, and not only that we may be back on the polls over that. So instead of working together in the house the Cons start war, and are behaving as if they are indispensable..................That mentality will get them nothing but trouble in the house, the type of trouble that will bring the house again on dysfunction mode, the very reason why Harper called an election, because of disfunctionallety, and now the hypocrite starts war and will blame disfunctionalety on the opposition……

I don't have a problem going back tothe polls in order to help get rid of the scum bags.... Who claim to be snow white....

Why does it sound so much like a cheater to make sure the odds get stacked in the cheater's favour? How much respect can one have for a guy who makes a law for a fixed election date so NO party can take advantage of good standings ... then manipulate things because he knew (though he lied to everyone and said they weren't because we're special) the bottom was about to fall out of the economey. Election? The bas*ard should be guzzled....

Oh well...If that's the case, then so be it. If we're all at the Polls again in two months, Then I hope we
have the biggest voter turn-out in Canadian history, and about 20,000,000 voters all vote for the same
unknown independent, leaving the current parties (ALL of them) to lick their wounds for the next four years.

Weird couple of days, but I'm doing well. I was assuming that whomever started that nasty combo
of letters had that reaction in mind. Are you say'n that was unintentional, but just worked out that way?
