Rob Ford, mayor of Toronto UPDATES
Sandy MacNab replied to WWWTT's topic in Local Politics in Canada
Indeed! Toronto's media are not professionals. They are bullies. Ford may get drunk now and then but his main sin (unforgiveable to the lefties) was to beat a politically correct soft-head. The so-called progressives are poor losers. Just look at the relentless personal attacks on PM Harper. -
Quebec Language Police Strike again
Sandy MacNab replied to Boges's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
Are you trying to tell the good folks that the OIL sands industries are receiving, in cash, $1.3 billion per year. If so, you have absolutely no idea what capital cost allowance is OR anything about income taxes in general. That accelerated CCA also gave a big shot in the arm to Ontario's economy too. So, as 'tis often said, "don't look a gift horse in the mouth". And, I read that propanda spewed out by the Green Party. If, that represents a good start to research, we'd still be hunters and gatherers. -

Could corruption have a little bit to do with that? -
High Salaries for police and firefighters

Sounds like a great idea! Good for Sudbury! Obviously they have people with imagination. -
Their champagne standard of living and politically correct "green" environment paid for by the sweat of others. Reminds me of the feudal system.

Of course not! Ontario and Quebec have had it their own way from well before Confederation. You keep reminding us how much you have "given" to the ROC (that is really a whine per se) but keep forgetting that Canada's economic system has always made sure the ROC bought most goods and services from Central Canada. Ergo, your prosperity, our poverty. Now that the West is wealthy, we "owe" you. Frankly, Western Canada owes Central Canada SFA! YOU still owe US a poltical system that provides each province a level playing field. Highly unlikely, aint it?

I understand Hudak is a dud on his own and thoughts of Harris don't even enter iinto the equation for most voters.

If you are so sure of that why don't you put a few dollars into some shares and make a "killing" too?

Have there been any highly-respected, in-depth studies on the effects of pot on the ability to drive? How do they measure the THC in one's system? Do they even know if there is a level at which one should appoint a designated driver? I'm an old guy who doesn't have a crusade for or against. But, if a pot user can be as dangerous as one using alcohol, I could be a fanatic "anti" very quickly.

Duffy? Mac Harb should have taken the spotlight!
Sandy MacNab replied to Keepitsimple's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Do you still claim to be non-partisan? Your rhetoric certainly indicates the opposite. -

Sandy MacNab replied to Keepitsimple's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Sorry, you're way out to lunch on this one. Look at the Chretien government and the number of prosecutions, convictions, and people who received jail sentences among those who supported or were part of that government. Then tell me who among the CPC and its supporters are currently headed in the same direction. I don't hate the Liberals. I just think they have been so smarmy they haven't earned my respect and certainly not my trust. Frankly, they need to completely remake themselves..and JT hasn't the ability to do it. -
NDP Dewar Fined for Robo Calls
Sandy MacNab replied to scribblet's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Do you mean "fix" as in the term "castrate"? If so, I'm sure that your prediction - in the unlucky event he becomes PM - will come true. -
It has been over a month and no answers have been forthcoming from Quebec's champions. Your quesion is an excellent one. Frankly, for the very reasons you give, Quebec should be a "have" province; rivalling if not at the top of the other haves.
