1. Maybe someone in Blackie the Pirates media could ask why Canada sends millions of dollars to Iran in foreign aid. Or to China.

2. The EU demands access to Britain’s fishing grounds. Hello? Does any of those Eurotwits remember the mid-1970s Cod War?

   1. Giving everyone in the world access to Canada’s fishing grounds sure worked out well.

3. What do we have in Canada, 50% of the adult population working directly for government? 75%?

   Was reading that the Democrats “justice” members got some resolution passed to remove the evil profit motive from medicine…

   Has Rona Ambrose ever brought a private member’s bill to remove the evil profit motive from the civil service? Didn’t think so.

   1. If I replace “the EU” with “Ottawa”, is that not what the residents in Alberta are experiencing?A largely unelected, bloated, government that does not represent Alberta
      What does Britain/Alberta get from belonging to EU/Ottawa?

      1. Advice to “don’t drop the soap in the shower”?

      2. A boot on your neck is all I have seen from Ottawa, Montreal, and Toronto.

      3. “… is that not what the residents in Alberta are experiencing? A largely unelected, bloated, government that does not represent Alberta”

         Hey, Albertans voted to put the NDP in power for one term. That’s what generally happens.

   2. “50% of the adult population working directly for government? 75%?”

      Two out of ten working Canadians are employed by some level of government. And at any one time another one of the eight remaining is working on a government contract/project. So on top of providing for themselves and their families, seven people working in the private sector support an additional three workers/families.

      Now you don’t have to be much of an economist to figure out that this ratio isn’t sustainable….and then, if you factor in those on unemployment, welfare, disability …..

      1. It is time for all of us, and to tell everyone else to stop buying products from company’s that the laurentien elite own.

         I will never buy maple leaf products.

         Also, I will never set foot in a Superstore ( stupidstore ), Loblaws, or shoppers Drug Mart, owned by the crooked, price fixing Weston’s.

         What other outfits that we should boycott controlled by the laurentien elite?

         Kate perhaps this is a topic that needs to be started?

      2. If you’re wanting to avoid Maple Leaf Foods (a complete boycott might be difficult), here is the CFIA list of federally inspected establishments. Those listed in boldface as Maple Leaf also include a listing of other names/brands that they sell under. The ones not listed as Maple Leaf are what you’re left to choose from.
