Why? Because we don't have enough nut jobs in Canada.


In fact, you've got too many Left-wing nutjobs. You need some parties with more commonsense who will make your society a much better place for the deserving rather than the undeserving. Canada needs its own Ukip.

Based on tax evasion.





You're wrong on the reason for the 'original' Tea Party rebellion, unless you're a loyalist.




The original was in response to Corporate favouritism which as the main Corporate usurper featured the East India Tea Company which paid heavy royalties to the monarchy.


Tea was a huge biz back then and to insure that the East India company continue to pay royalties all Tea Traders except the EIC had to pay taxes.


It was basically a way for Britain to put the little guys out of business and keep the EIC sailing along.


And if the OP wants a Canadian Tea Party he should look to the Harper Cons and compare what they are doing ........




In the aftermath of the SARS crisis of 2003, the government created the Public Health Agency of Canada, and the position of Chief Public Health Officer to strengthen this country's medical defences.

After they were shown to be almost catastrophically inadequate.

But now Stephen Harper and his Cons are slashing the Public Health Agency's budget, and neutering the country's top doctor.

And to make matters even worse, they're not even listening to them. They're all but
burying their reports.

He rules by fear. He tries to muzzle his opponents. He is terrorizing the civil service, and politicizing the police.

So when the Privacy Commissioner warns that Stephen Harper is trying to control the only thing he can't control, the internet.

Canadians should be alarmed.

So it has been revealed that Veterans Affairs had $1.1 billion dollars in unused funding over seven years. Now Veterans Affairs minister Julian Fantino is claiming that the Harper Con's "balanced" budgets where not achieved at the expense of our veterans.


Fantino said claims that the unused funds were a strategy to balance the budget are false.

"The funding is allocated and if it's not spent it's recycled back into continuing programs and services for veterans. It's not lost money," said Fantino.

He called it a technical budget process that does not hamper services and programs for veterans.

"If I can put it bluntly, this is a technical kind of to and fro in the budgeting process of government," he said.Oh, sure, that makes sense.




Here he is minister-splaining the government budget to us ignorant plebs

As if we need another tea party in canada, we'd have more than the states do. Let there be no doubt that the hairspray bubble head and his fellow reformists are exactly the same as the us teas.
