Hello,
so lets start off with something that warms my anger to boiling point. Yes, our fair government and its spending spree continues.
fresh off the G8 and G20 summits with leaders from around the world and a global promise to reduce debts, the minority federal government again has ANNOUNCED ANOTHER SPENDING SPREE!!!! oh my fellow Canadians, this one is like no other...and will cost the tax payers of this already burdened country even more....try 9 BILLION dollars more. Yes!!! whoohaaaa more taxes!
The federal government announced that it has awarded a contract to American Corporation Lockheed Martin to ship F-35 fighters to Canada. the first to arrive in 2016.
not only is the cost outrageous, (here it comes now...hang on...) but the federal government, in its ever growing infinite stupidity, has not allowed the contract to be BID on, but rather just awarded it to Lockheed Martin. this is OUTRAGEOUS!!!! why are we paying for fighters at a ridiculous cost and WHY DID THE GOVERNMENT NOT ALLOW OTHER BIDDERS????
can we not build planes in CANADA? does the ARROW not count as an example of our ability? (you know...the plane designed, built and tested here that the Americans stole by forceably bankrupting ARROW.) does our economy not need jobs...good paying jobs? does this not meet the criteria of the "make work program" that the government has been spouting out on TV commercials?
and the big question....HOW DOES A MINORITY GOVERNMENT SPEND THAT KIND OF MONEY WITH OUT ANY OPPOSITION, ON A ITEM THAT PRETTY MUCH FLIES IN THE FACE OF ITS OWN "PEACEKEEPING IMAGE"?
i am ashamed to call us peacekeepers! i am ashamed of this government for setting up rules and breaking them at the drop of a hat! i am ashamed that no one is really defending what i am saying! if the government continues in this money spending fashion, what will be left??
how much of 9 billion could aid a failing healthcare system or any other starved social program?
i think that the greasing of palms is clearly evident here and a little butt kissing too....
your analogue tv will be obsolete soon!! why? because the greedy media conglomerate is not making enough money and there are not enough brainless programs on the airwaves for consumers to watch!!!
comming soon, digital will be in place whether you like it or not. your analogue tv will be obsolete if you use rabbit ears or antenna soon. why? because media monopolies want to add more programing and by using digital they can add almost twice as many useless programs for you to watch. the cost is of course, TO YOU. if you don't purchase one of the new fangled IDIOT BOXES you are to become burdened with buying a box at the cost of $75 to convert your old tv.
JUST MAKES ME WANT TO RUN RIGHT OUT AND BUY A 47'' RIGHT THIS MINUTE....NOT.
ARGENTINA has passed landmark legislation to give equal rights to their gay/lesbian population. Argentina is the first South American Nation to give these rights freely to the gay population. the celebration was marred by protesters who were out on behalf of the catholic church. in the same breath, the head of the catholic church in Argentina said that this decision would be the "death of family values!"
KNOW WHAT I SAY......when you are faced with choosing between your child and your faith, then you have the right to voice your opinion!!! if it doesn't directly affect you and your family.....SHUT UP. YOUR OPINION IS JUST THAT....AN OPINION.
walk a mile in a parent's shoes if their child comes home and says they are gay!
well that's it for me.....

It's Been A While....but Something Always Crops Up!!
Hi Everyone,
well its been a while, but something always crops up in the news to raise the hair on the back of my neck. and god bless the media for being so diligent about reporting stuff that pisses me off.
today's latest thing is the "Eco Fee." have you heard of it??? most Canadian's haven't....mostly because the government didn't feel the need to inform us. why didn't they??? that i will get to later.
first the Eco Fee. it seems that the federal government wants us to be "aware" what we do not sort for garbage. there are a list of products that now fall under this Eco Fee.
the government decided that the Canadian public should sort potential harmful containers and deposit them at a soon to be issued 'orange station' in their area. what is an orange station? well it is a spot at your local landfill that accepted your paint cans and oil containers or any other container or product deemed unsafe for the regular landfill. why do we need to change how this is structured? because of the alarming amount of containers and products that are appearing without people being careful.
so in layman's terms here's how its suppose to work: 1. the government said the stores or manufacturers would have to pay an Eco Fee for any product that was deemed harmful or unsafe. 2. the price would range from 13c for some products to $6.66 for a fire extinguisher weighing more than 5.5lbs. 3. the Eco Fee would roll into action as of July 1, 2010. 3. ALL moneys would go to the set up and run of these orange stations to monitor and accept possible harmful or unsafe containers and products. 4. NO MONEY would see the pockets of the government. 5. money will be collected by Stewartship Ontario. (what that is, i don't know) 6. this new program was introduced to make the public aware of what can go and what cannot go to the local landfill.
THAT IS THE GOVERNMENT'S VERSION.
NOW FOR REALITY..... 1. there was little to NO information made public about this ECO FEE to Canadians. WHY?.... because the government thought that it could slip it by us. 2. MOST Canadians already use their local 'hazardous waste programs' at their local landfills. WHY do we need a new one? WHY?....MONEY. 3.the contents that they wish us to sort are the same as the ones we have always sorted. WHY? revenue for a few 1000 jobs. 3. the Stewartship Ontario is what? WHY?....cause its easier to create a non profit company to filter money through. the private business sector does it all the time....only if they get caught its called LAUNDERING. 4. companies and distributors don't want to pay the Eco Fee. WHY?....it eats into their profits. 5. the Eco Fee has been passed on to the consumer sector. WHY? because the little guy gets it in the neck every time and apparently...we are not yet burdened enough with federal and provincial taxation.
SO WHAT EXACTLY IS THE GOVERNMENT DOING ABOUT THIS FEE THAT HAS BEEN SLYLY HANDED DOWN TO US?????? N O T H I N G!!!!
the minister of environment one John Gerretson thinks that its ok that we swallow the fees because it will make us aware of what is being put into the landfills.
KNOW WHAT I SAY......SHOVE YOUR ECO FEES....AND SHAME ON YOU MR. GERRETSEN FOR THINKING THAT WE WOULD SWALLOW ANOTHER LOT OF BULLSHIT!!!!!!
why are you not righting this wrong and make sure that the companies and distributors are absorbing these fees? why are you not making them label containers stating that this is an Eco Fee product? why are you JUST NOT MAKING THEM FIND FRIENDLIER CHEMICALS OR BETTER CONTAINERIZATION SO SHIT LIKE THIS DOESN'T GET TO OUR LANDFILLS? why are we always the ones that pay for the business sectors bullshit?
NOW...here is a short list of things deemed ECO FEEABLE in the governments eyes:
AEROSOL CONTAINERS
cooking spray
spray paint
air fresheners
whip cream
sun block
rust inhibitors
VEHICLES
anti freeze
engine coolant
engine chemicals
oil or synthetics for cars
windshield washer fluids
auto filters
BATTERIES
rechargeable and non rechargeable
CORROSIVES
heavy duty cleaners
pool chemicals
rust removers
furniture stripper
bleach
toilet cleaners
IRRITANTS
laundry detergents
floor mop refills
stain removers
disinfectants
hand soap
hand sanitizers
FIRE EXTINGUISHERS
small medium and large
PESTICIDES
lawn fertilizers for domestic use
FLAMABLES
driveway sealers
caulking
grout
lighters
camping fuel
fuel enhancers
FLUORESCENT BULBS
all CFL bulbs
FILTERS
furnace filters
coolant filters
THIS IS JUST SOME OF THE LIST...THE GOVERNMENT PLANS ON ADDING MORE.
is your life free from all of these products? do you use in some shape or form any of them?
KNOW WHAT I SAY....sure we need them...but only because the media and corporations dictate that we do to survive. so we can either stop using them and the Eco Fee goes away.....or we can refuse to pay a fee for something that we did not create. I SAY STOP THIS 'PASS THE BUCK' SHIT....N O W.
the government needs some balls here!!! it is not on us to be responsible for what corporations make or manufacture. it is time for CORPORATIONS AND DISTRIBUTORS TO BE AWARE OF WHAT THEY MAKE, HOW THEY MAKE IT AND THE AFFECTS IT WILL HAVE ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE AND BREATHE ON PLANET EARTH. AND WHEN THEY STOP CHURNING OUT THIS GARBABE, THEN I WILL BE GLADLY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT EVER I CREATE OR DO.

So What Happened In Toronto Anyway On The Weekend?
Good Evening All,
so can anyone tell me.....WHAT HAPPENED IN TORONTO ON THE WEEKEND ANYWAY? there has been a lot of smoke and mirrors about protesters that has filled the news for 3 days. when you stop and think about it....it was a puff of smoke compared to other protests in other countries. sure a few windows got smashed, but store owners were warned close up and board up.
the media spent its time and effort bringing us every detail about "the BLACK BLOCK".
sure they are assh*les and they caused a lot of damage.
its what the media DIDN'T TELL YOU that you should be worried about, not a bunch of adolescents tossing rocks.
well i found out what happened at the G20 summit but not from Canadian news coverage. i got what went on from the BBC. sad isn't it that a Canadian has to get information about an event in their own country from an outside news agency.
SO HERE IT IS.......
1. the leaders want to send more money to 3rd world countries for mother and child health care. COST ( unknown....no dollar amount was released)
2. they want to see deficit cuts from all attending nations by half before or around 2013. COST ( well after Canadians swallow this Summit Money Pit they will have to swallow more.)
how ironic that we will send money to countries for the health of women and children and at the same time programs such as health care, schooling and others will be cut here for our mothers and children.
WELL THAT'S IT.....THAT'S ALL THEY ACCOMPLISHED FOR 1 BILLION DOLLARS!!!!
MONEY WELL SPENT????
oh ya and a few other comments made to the press for good PR.
- they condemned the North Korean sinking of a South Korean ship.
(that would be the 2 Koreas problem, not ours)
- and they expressed concern over the "Gaza Situation."
(you know, that place where Palestinians are being held like criminals and treated worse than your neighbourhood mongrel.)
at the last G20 summit the then leaders said that they would push 22 BILLION into agriculture in countries that needed help. (ah??? where's the money or the wheat or the vegetables or any other agri-thing you promised. it never happened. either 22 BILLION just disappeared into thin air, or THEY NEVER SENT IT!!!!
so what is left over in Toronto after all this.....I WILL TELL YA!!
- A FEW REALLY PISSED OFF STORE OWNERS who weren't smart enough to board the place up.
- FENCING THAT THE INSTALLERS will charge the city or the federal government a fortune to be dismantled.
- TORONTO GARBAGE WORKERS who have to clean up after the masses.
- AND A LOT OF BRAGGING AND BACK PATTING about what a wonderful job the police did.
- 3 SONIC CANNONS that cost us $60,000 that didn't really see the light of day.
- A FAKE LAKE that has to be dismantled. (AHHHHH don't forget to put back the muskoka chairs when you're done.)
1 BILLION DOLLARS WELL SPENT CANADA....
P.S. just so ya know, Harper to this date has the highest deficit of any Prime Minister....but we need to cut that.
KNOW WHAT I SAY MR. HARPER......YOU SPENT IT....YOU GIVE IT BACK. MY POCKETS ARE NOT THAT DEEP.....maybe you could sell the fake lake to Australia...apparently they need the water.
* oh ya no quote today.... just an after thought. the news article about the G8 and G20 summit were wayyyyyy down the list of news articles, IN FACT, it was 9th. WELL BELOW the most important thing of the day...WOMAN ACCUSES USA SOCCER PLAYER OF LOVE CHILD! (isn't that what the world needed to know?)

Black Block Cowards......
Good Morning,
I DO BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROTEST. that being said, i DO NOT believe that random violence and destruction of public property is a PROTEST.
as any law abiding Canadian can, your right to protest anything from pink flowers along a main street to the G20 summit is yours. the ugliness that broke out today in downtown Toronto was not protest by VANDALISM. the most disturbing part is that these COWARDS known as the BLACK BLOCK, clad in all black garb, dressed as the rest of the protesters and later broke away, removing plain clothes and wearing black. not only was it their disguise that disturbed us, but the violent destruction of property. NO banners were carried, NO chants were heard and NO sign of the reason for their march. the destruction of the downtown area will cost ontario/canada big bucks....add that to the 1.1 billion this 3 day fiasco started. after the wave of violence and many attempts to break police lines, the BLACK BLOCK then melted back into the crowd and removed black clothing, returning to street clothes as the rest of the peaceful demonstrators.
what was the purpose of the violence today??? some say to show the big corporations that the little guy is fighting back, some say is was to show the leaders that not everything they say and do in the next 2 days is ok with the people.
KNOW WHAT I SAY.....TAKE YOUR SORRY ASS ANTICS ELSEWHERE !!!! legitimate protesters were injured because of your violent nonsense and their right to protest was curbed by your stupid senseless antics.
I DON'T CONDONE VIOLENCE IN ANY SHAPE OR FORM.....read my blog history and i am sure you will see that.
SO A WORD FOR ALL YOU BLACK BLOCK HOODLUMS......go the hell home!!!!!
(and take the queen with you)
the other thing in the news today, or shall i say not in the news today, was that the Australian representative, one PM Rudd did not come to the G8 or the G20. wanna know why......? well it seems his own party decided that Mr. Rudd had done enough damage to his party and country and they voted him out. i do believe that this has been in the works for a while, but only sprung by the covent just before the summits so that it appeared suddenly to the people of Australia. the new acting PM is a woman... YOU READ IT RIGHT...A WOMAN. from past news articles, she seems to not be totally on the level and has her own agenda. its sad really, WHERE DID DEMOCRACY GO??? how can a country get a new leader just because his own party says so?? why are the people not deciding? we will find out in a month or so when Aussies go back to the voting booths and vote in a federal election again. i have a feeling that this was a last ditch effort by Rudd's party to maintain some form of leadership and repair damage done. the opposition is crawling back out of disrespect and making positive waves in the polls. i think their fear is losing the election in a few months. unfortunately, i don't think the image of this woman will bolster any positive poll support for the party and they will indeed lose the next election. YOU HEARD IT HEAR FIRST......NEWS FLASH : SHORT LIVED WOMAN PRIME MINISTER LOSES ELECTION IN AUSTRALIA....
i am jumping back to the protesters now.....
so with all the craziness going on downtown, what were the issues of the protesters?
unfortunately we will never know that because the media, trying to gain ratings, decided that images of burning police vehicles and black clad goons was more important than the issues of the march.
when will the MEDIA learn that we are not just a bunch of stupid Alberta cows standing around in the field?!!!! we are conscious, we breathe, we think and we can comprehend what it is that these handful of people are all about during this 3 day government spending spree.
KNOW WHAT I SAY.....STOP TREATING THE CANADIAN PUBLIC LIKE MINDLESS IDIOTS AND GET TO THE REAL ISSUES. it is time that the Canadian media stop acting like the American media and get back to real journalism, NOT this whitewash shit they call news.
done for now!

Another Dead Soldier and Talk of Separation....
good morning,
on his 4th and final tour of Afganistan, Sgt. James Macneil from Nova Scotia is going home for good.
Less than 24 hours before his death, Macneil and his girlfriend got engaged long-distance and began making plans for a wedding and a new home.
Macneil is the 148th Canadian Forces member to die as part of the Afghan mission since it began in 2002. Two civilians -- diplomat Glyn Berry and journalist Michelle Lang -- have also been killed.
WHEN IS ENOUGH ENOUGH? Mr. Harper, you had better come clean on your decision to bring these boys home soon and not extent the Canadian troops beyond the time limits you set. This is no longer a war, but babysitting and death due to babysitting is not the Canadian way.
looks like the Quebecers have made a quiet stir again about leaving Canada. some 400 protesters took to the streets on Sunday to celebrate the death of the Meech Lake accord that took place 20 years ago.
it was a far cry from the 1990 street mob of 160,000 that flooded the streets and interupted an Expos game in Montreal.
it seems the "quiet revolution" has replaced the storming of the bastille!? in any event, the Bloc Leader, Gilles Duceppe, is about to tour Canada with his separatist views and hit on other provinces like Newfoundland, BC and Alberta to rethink their position in the Great White North and begin to think about independence.
KNOW WHAT I SAY.....bye bye all you losers that think it would be nice not to be under the Canadian Flag...i would be glad to see you go.
HERE'S THE DEAL: 1. you pay your portion of the debt.
(the largest contributors to the federal debt are BC, Alberta, Quebec and Ontario.) BIG SURPRISE THERE. the cost....millions.
2. hand back all CANADIAN currency. which means you would have to sink millions up front to create your own currency, the cost....millions.
3. stop all CANADA PENSION for those eligible within those provinces. (remember, the yuppies will soon be at the door of Canada Pension eligibility) the cost....there goes millions more.
4. infastructure of education, healthcare, new tax laws, government restructuring, legal systems, law enforcement....and the list goes on. the cost... MILLIONS AND MILLIONS MORE.
WHO WILL PAY FOR ALL THESE NEW FOUND FREEDOMS???? the little flag waving losers that thought being away from momma Canada would be cool! i compare these ideals to that of a teenager who thinks his parents know nothing and rebels....and after thinking that they are wiser than the parents, leaves to see what its like on their own. good luck....BUT REMEMBER....Momma Canada is not going to be there to pick you up or do your laundry after you go!!!
instead of provinces like Quebec asking "what have you done for me lately?" maybe we all should be asking "how can we make this country STRONGER?"
KNOW WHAT I SAY....YOU WANNA LEAVE, THEN GO!...BUT PAY UP FIRST!!!!
QUOTE OF THE DAY....
Canada is one of the planet's most comfortable, and caring, societies. The United Nations Human Development Index cited the country as the most desirable place in the world to live. This year a World Bank study named Canada the globe's second wealthiest society after Australia.

1.9 Million for a FAKE LAKE......?????
Well, its umm? morning,
but it ain't too good for Joe Canada this morning. i just finished reading an article about the Federal and Provincial government footing the bill for a FAKE LAKE. YA YOU READ IT RIGHT?!!! its true. the convention centre is getting a FAKE LAKE just like in the Muskokas with docks, canoes, deck chairs and other Muskokaie things sprinkled around. THE PRICE TAG TO THE TAXPAYERS (sit down for this one) its only going to cost 1.9 million to build. (i did tell ya to sit down, now get off the floor and read the rest)
This FAKE LAKE being built is not for LEADERS OF COUNTRIES, its not for DIPLOMATS, its not even for their WIVES OR AIDES.....its for REPORTERS!!!! YIP....foreign reporters. not all reporters will have access to the G8 or G20 so our PRIME MINISTER, and his "magic dollar hat" has found 1.9 million to build a lake and promote the country and province. are we then to assume that a 3.5 kilometre fence that's 9 meters high to surround the G20 SUMMIT is there to promote the beauty of the province as well? NOT TO MENTION sound cannons to disperse unruly protesters who have every right to speak their minds. WOW! there's something to put on an Ontario Tourism postcard!!!!
KNOW WHAT I SAY......LET THEM WATCH THE TV COMMERCIALS LIKE I HAVE TO. they are on the idiot-box all the time about tourism in CANADA and ONTARIO...OR drive to a resort and sit in their deck chairs.
oh and Mr. Harper....here's a news flash. NOT ALL PEOPLE IN THE MUSKOKAS USE MUSKOKA CHAIRS ON THEIR DECKS....we buy patio furniture from walmart or fold up canvas chairs.
......BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE............ there will also be a replica of the Toronto Stock Exchange built as well....why? who the hell knows???? its not a tourist attraction by any means!!!
Jack Layton wants to know why we are building a FAKE LAKE when there will be one half a mile away from the place these people will be. And to boot, he is wondering why we are building it when CANADA probably has the most lakes in the world????
CANADA is constantly reminded that it has one of the worst deficits in its history. We are just climbing back from a damaging recession and the SUMMITS are suppose to seriously discuss coming to grips with the international debt crisis?!!!!
Does Mr. Harper feel that CANADA has been excluded from this part of the discussion? Is the Conservative Government hiding money trees in our vast expanse of forest? if he is hiding the money trees, he is burning it faster than our forest fires can?!!!
2 billion dollars...can you say more doctors please, can you say CANADA PENSION. you know, that thing that won't exist for me once the yuppies hit retirement ahead of me?
let me ask you one important question.....if you are footing the bill for a 1.9 million dollar FAKE LAKE, that will only be there for 2 to 4 days and only there for some 200 reporters...can we use it? it will be the only way to get your money's worth!!!!
before the planes with national leaders leave on the sunday, Harper will have spent close to 2 billion with a'b' dollars to show off.
THATS ONE GD EXPENSIVE LAWN CHAIR MY FELLOW CANADIANS!
QUOTE OF THE DAY.....
“If it wasn’t so serious, it would be hysterically funny. The federal government refuses to compensate the businesses in my ward for damages, yet they'll build a $2 million fake lake — across from a real lake. As far as I’m concerned, they can jump in that lake.”

but it ain't too good for Joe Canada this morning. i just finished reading an article about the Federal and Provincial government footing the bill for a FAKE LAKE.

April Fools Canada......Cadium & Oil
Morning All,
well the wool has been pulled over the eyes of the CANADIAN people again. after the April 1 bullshit speech to the nation about bringing the troops home and telling the US that ''we decide our policy in Afganistan'', our wonderful PR...oops! PM has all but decided to leave some boys behind after the deadline to train the Afganistan police. Mr. Harper lied. can't get any more honest then that now can i. bringing home the CANADIANS means all the CANADIANS, not most of the CANADIANS. canadian people really need to rethink what this guy is doing to our country. he has spent more money than any other minority government has.
my question is this.....I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW MANY MEMBERS OF PARLIMENT HAVE CHILDREN IN AFGANISTAN. then i will tell you how long the troops will remain there.
why doesn't the government ask the parents of these troops if they want them to stay? why doesn't the government put it to the CANADIAN people? why is the government entertaining this question at all. HAVE SOME GOVERNMENTAL BALLS HARPER and stick to what you said April 1.
McDonalds is recalling 12 million shrek glasses because the paint is cadmium. this paint with cadmium is a carcinogen that can cause softening of bones and kidney problems. they charged $2 a glass and are asking people to return them. BUT....and here it comes.....there is no mention in the article about reimbursement of your $2 or where the glasses where manufactured??? i am sure we can all guess where they were made....and as for your $2, well i am sure McDs will be happy to provide you with a happy meal in lue of the money!!??? (can't eat into the profit margin now can we) i am sure that McDs will be releasing more on this soon. oh and so you know, IT WAS WAAAAAAAAAY DOWN THE LIST OF NEWS ARTICLES ON THE PAGE. go figure, chemicals, children, not healthy....don't want to promote that as a headline now can we!!!
the oil in the gulf is beginning to show its affects on wildlife. i can't imagine what these animals must be going through. the weight alone of the oil would be devastating to them let alone the toxicity. it is a death blow to hundreds of species and many more that man has not discovered yet. the long term effects will be a huge blow to the ecosystem. people will say...so what, it doesn't affect human life its just a loss of oil and the cost of the cleanup.
KNOW WHAT I SAY....you are a naive asshole if you think that shallow.
THIS IS A BROWN PELICAN....it is on the endangered species list. the area it was found in is its breeding ground. ENDANGERED? try more like...EXTINCT soon.
this could be your child! this could be your beach! this could be your shoreline! this could be your health! MUST WE WAIT for a spill or disaster to happen in our own backyard before we get off our chair and email or write your MP or Prime Minister? OFF SHORE DRILLING is not safe and it continue to be a russian roulette game for the world.
