Harper and the Fraser Institue

Mr. Harper tells us to look to the record. Let’s do that!

Mr. Harper is a long standing member of the Fraser Institute. An Institute is an organization which promotes. In this case an extreme right wing agenda that would have us take Government out of everything except legislation! He is in good company with members from Bechtel, ATCO and a number of retired conservative premiers and leaders. Remember; a club for the good old boys! Not a special university!

They want privatized health care, toll roads, toll bridges; privatize municipal water and sewer. Their perfect world is the picture of people in Africa lined up at a private water line; a pail in one hand and a credit card in the other. Many can’t afford the water and go begging drinks. This is the Fraser Institute’s perfect world; this is Mr. Harper’s beliefs!

When industry owns absolutely every thing, you are totally free.
See http://www.freetheworld.com/

Mr. Harper has said “Why should I care about who delivers the health care program?” and “Canada is a third world socialist country.”

What Mr. Harper is not telling you about his intentions is much more important than what he has said! If there is a Conservative government in Ottawa where is the checks and balances for Alberta gone? The results will be direct Government from board room!

If you vote Conservative this election you are giving away the farm and, there is no recovery from that!

You lose all credibility when making such silly stements. Too bad you can't harnass the energy of your shrill hysteria to power a few light bulbs.

My Opinion on this Thread

Calberty, while I may not believe that the Hon. Stephen Harper is quite as radical as the arguments of cyberclark has cited, I respect his opinion, and you would do well in terms of a civil debate on Canadian Content to do the same; I am by no means a moderator, certainly — this is simply the opinion of an enthusiastic user of the Forum.

:arrow: In Response to the Topic Post

I would agree that the Hon. Stephen Harper is quite right-wing, even in comparison to his Conservative colleagues in the House of Commons; on some matters of social policy, he could be construed as "radical," but I would submit that such is not true to the extend that you may have argued.

With respect, I would submit, cyberclark, that in recent years the Leader of the Opposition has shifted slightly more toward the centre — don't get me wrong, I would by no means consider Mr. Harper to be a centrist, but he seems less right-wing than he at one point did.

:!: Edit Corrected a typo.

No, this is a hysterical claim:

"Their perfect world is the picture of people in Africa lined up at a private water line; a pail in one hand and a credit card in the other"

That's like saying the NDP supports the state removing children from their parents and sending off to the People's Socialist school'.

Layton supports removing children from their parents. What an evil man by association.

All parts of the argument are silly and one false premise can't be used to 'prove anything'.

No wonder the NDP supporters lack credibility.

cyberclark,
um, everybody on city water supplies pays for water ...so I think you are a little off on that one. I pay for my water service, and I am quite well hydrated.

Why? He already has a job. It'll be implementing the Fraser Institute philosophy.

Hopefully.

Actually i have a far better use for him.

Canada suffered a big setback in its avionics industry when Deif killed the Arrow. Canada should get its own indpendent space program going. We will follow the same basic steps as the US: our first living creature put in space can be the chimp named Harper.
