Harpers hidden agenda comes to mind. Never was one. From day one Harper said he would remake Canada in his image.
Does that image include the twisted mouth that makes it easier to talk out of both sides.
My question is the same. His agenda was indeed hidden from the large bulk of the population. Only those who are aware of Harper's past knew of it.
Did you know of his determination to change access to Healthcare and to eventually get the federal government out of it? Only with the deal imposed on the Provinces recently was there even a hint of it since he made it Reform Party policy.
Did you know that he planned to drastically reduce the federal government's commitment to science: all science, not just climate change.
And, there is much more. If not hidden, the parts were in locked closets.

And i challenge you with this mountie.Used to dig this as a kid.

Do you ever thinkj before you post? 6% - and less from 2017 on is not necessarily adequate. It covers the cost of what inflation, Perhaps not the inflation in the elements of medical care. Actually certainly not. It also should factor in the population growth and demographic changes. It does not.Right.
you said:
The deal provides for 6% INCREASES in Federal funding for the provinces in every year until 2017, at which time the yearly increase will decline as a percentage, but will still be more than the annual inflation rate.
Do you talk BS on EVERY subject?????

Inflation is not some all encompassing figure. The national rate of inflation is a composite of a great number of commodities and services. Some may be deflating; some may be almost constant. It is not representative of any one sector.
It will almost certainly bring a decline in Healthcare since the Provinces are in no position to raise revenues to compensate.
That is how Harper intends to achieve his libertarian/anarchic dream.
Your post is, of course, baloney, from beginning to end.
You spoke of "his determination to change access to Healthcare and to eventually get the federal government out of it?"
6% increases is hardly "changing access" and guaranteed funding is hardly "get(ting) the Federal gov't out of it".
Of course, English might mean something completely different in whatever parallel dimension you exist in............
And, oh constitutional expert, health care is a provincial area of responsibility. I thought you might know that.
I explained it to you. It seemed easy enough but I forgot the density of the head I was addressing. Can't be bothered trying to make it easier.
And, Healthcare is a joint responsibility. Or have you not heard of the Canada Health Act?
Harper first wrote of his intention 1n 1989, making it official Reform Party Policy then. Possibly you have been asleep since then.
Show me WHERE. You forget, idiot boy, I have an education, experience, and I was a Reform Party member.
You are an idiot, and it is a complete waste of time talking to you. It is something like trying to teach a salamander calculus, except that I don't wish to insult salamanders..
I only answer your garbage for fear some unfortunate innocent might actually be fooled into believing you.
The Healthcare Act, oh he of little brain, is simply an act of Parliament, and dores not assign permanent responsibility, as it can be easily changed by Parliament alone.
But you are a constitutional scholar.....right.
You are a ****ing bonehead.
Quite.I wonder if the person who wrote the article wears clothes that were made in Canada. Or if they drive a car made by a Canadian company. Same with those opposition MPs. I have a feeling they all use many things that were not made in Canada or made by a Canadian company. This is one of the dumbest things to complain about.
Don't tell me you did not see this movie.and this is derogatory how?

Um, speaking of poor math skills; 6% covers a bit more than just inflation.Do you ever thinkj before you post? 6% - and less from 2017 on is not necessarily adequate.
