Nope... all I see is the same vauge description on what they propose..... I guess we're supposed to just "Trust" them to make a system that matches their promises..... after we vote them into power based on their vauge plan of course.

And of course, like in the past, they'll get into power, realize or claim they now know they can't match their promises, change the whole plan around, and once again, we're all screwed and we all have to put up with it for another 4 or so years.

Mr. Dion will be in Saskatoon Saskatchewan on this coming Sunday to attempt to re-sell
this "Green Shift" thing. I have a prior Family engagement so I won't be able to go, but I think
it would be interesting to witness this in person. Oh well, I'll have to settle for watching the
aftermath in the news like everyone else. Here's an audio link to an interview from June 27th/08
where Mr. Dion last tried to sell this "Green Shift" in Saskatchewan. It'll be a tough sell...

:-|............Whether for good or ill, Dion just lost the Libs the next election.

Le ****er, stupide, la.

Which is a bit silly because we don't know what the PC green plan will cost. Dion tipped his hand to early...........Hell, the PC plan might be twice as expensive.:angry3:

What a lousy toupeé

I personally don't like Dion because he's a dual citizen (not the issue) who has the gaul to claim his french citizenship is just an item of convenience.

If you take swearing an oath as an Item of convenience, how can we trust that he cares about his Canadian citizenship more than the french.

Is anyone able to find any reference anywhere with respect to just what
percentage of the money collected by this "Green Shift" (if it ever comes into
existence) will be utilized to administer this thing??? I've looked and just can't
find this answer.

I'm also trying to find a list as to who these "700 worst polluters" are that
are mentioned with respect to this "Green Shift" wealth distribution plan. Has
anyone been able to find the answer to either of these questions???

It's in the Red Book. Sorry couldn't resist.

Well...it's not in the RED BOOK (from the Office of the Inspector General), and it's not in the RED BOOK
(Vehicle Valuation Guide for insurance Agencies), so you must mean the RED BOOK (Canada, Canadians
Funeral Home & Mortician Directory).
