RE: What is Canadian Cult

Nothing naive or delusional about it, Mediana. The fact is that the Conservatives, instead of using this to broach the larger issue of temporary work visas leading to the abuse of a lot of workers, chose to try to turn it into a scandal based on sex.

If the Conservatives truly cared about these women, or the temporay farm workers, or any other group of workers who get abused because they are here on temporary visas, they would have approached it as such. They Harperites really don't give a rats ass what happens to these women though, and they sure as hell don't want to risk losing other temporary workers that Conservative supporters profit from, so they attack Sgro.

The Conservatives have offered no support to the Ontario woman who is trying unionise strippers, have done nothing on the larger issue of temporary workers and their rights, and have not pushed for immigration brokers to be more tightly controlled. In short all the Conservatives have done is say, "You let women into the country and they show their boobies."

Get a grip, Mediana. Get a grip on Harper's skinny little throat and shake him until he addresses the real issues instead of trying to score cheap political points in his doomed bid to become a real boy one day.

Your backpeddling attempts at saving face are always good for a laugh, Blair.

Strippergate isn't a partisan scandal. Its a Canadian scandal which has angered and upset Canadians all over the political spectrum.

You're just too naive and delusional to notice.

Canadian Culture means Freedom and right to be who you are without repercussions. It's also the right to equal rights and have the system protect them even if they aren't "popular".

No back-peddling at all Mediana. It's what I've been saying from the beginning. It's actually what I've been saying about the temporary farm workers for years.

You should take the whole Conservative Caucus out and get them laid, Mediana. Maybe they'd stop obsessing about sex then and get some real work done.

Don't tell me, let me guess... and you just happen to know some government approved Romanian prostitutes who can help out -- if the price is right.

Steven harper would make a great political leader for the 50's. His problem is he looks to the past to find the solutions for the future. Unfortuneately, thats all yesterdays news. Conservatives are like the army, they are also ready to fight the last war, but never the next one. Sex and politics....lets see...they all should charge the same rate, but you get a discount for frequent flyers.

Reverend Blair, Mediana,

Thanks for your introduction, i got it now. My question is that what do you think of the difference between Canadian life and American life, since they are geographical close to each other? In other words, i mean what do you think the day-to-day life of its people? Blair and Mediana , are you native Canadians? What do you think of Americans lives? i am very curious to it, sorry for the ignorance, but thanks a lot for your information. ..

regards,
wintersnow

Hi! WinterSnow

One time I travelled by car to Las Vegas.
When travelling through the South, I was surprised to see so many cars up on blocks in peoples front yards.

It seemed unusual to see so many cars needing repairs.

I asked about it. I was told that when people can't make their car payment, they put the car up on blocks during the day so that the bailiff can't repossess the car.
If a car is undergoing mechanical repairs, it can not be seized.

That is one way we Canadians are different than Americans.

Calm

Nope...I figured you likely knew some though, being so interested in all things having to do with sex.

Whatever you do, don't limit yourself to what other people here write.

Read, read and read some more. I already posted an informative and totally non-partisan link.

RE: What is Canadian Cult

There is no scandal 007...or nothing important enough to be sucking up massive amounts of time in the House of Commons.

There is a policy problem, but nobody likes to talk about it because it shows that Canadians can be brutal towards poor people from other cultures. Nobody wants to change the whole poicy though because there are profits to be made by being towards people from other countries.

Canada has a generous immigration policy... except when it comes to Canadians.

If a person with a work visa brings his family of foreign nationals to Canada, they all get full health coverage during their stay.

If a Canadian wants to do the same, they get squat from the government and have to pay out of pocket.

When it comes to immigration issues, Canadians are second-class citizens in their own country.

I await you back-peddling tripe...

Thank you Mediana, for proving to Canadians that the Conservative Party is still the hive of bigots it always was.

Thanks sparky, rest assured I will give your input all the consideration it so richly deserves...
