I think it just proves that this board is full of propaganda mouthpieces...

Your conservative black and white thinking is showing. Bunch of cavemen I tell ya.

It makes sense to charge less for in demand degrees that we actually need to attract and support more people into that profession. I wouldn't subsidize most hobby degrees (history, art, music, philosophy, women's studies) Not that they aren't important to some degree, they are of little economic value and we don't get a return on those degrees. Anything that is an investment in Canada? Yeah. That makes sense to subsidize.

Conservatives don't believe in grass roots anything. Just having a glorious leader at the top.

Note: do you have a video link proving anything you said? All I read was text. It should be up by now, it's been a day.

And yet, he holds everyone else to a standard he can't meet himself...

Breaking News: Conservative Think Tank run and funded by wealthy elite for the wealthy elite says that taxes on the wealthy are no good. :lol: :lol: Odd... I seem to remember people saying that the top tax rate was getting close to 50% and that the taxes wouldn't amount to much anyways so we shouldn't bother. Now... they pay too much? Are conservatives so dumb that they'll fall for this doublespeak? Sadly, yes. I bet these numbers include business taxes... shockingly, poor people don't have money to run businesses. You can clearly work out the personal income tax rates. Hey, excuse me while I toss out garbage predictions in favour of the wealthy because I'm funded by the wealthy "The government hoped the new tax — an extra 2% on incomes over $500,000, which translates into a 3.1% increase when an additional surtax is applied — would raise $470 million. Laurin estimates the number will be closer to $450 million initially, falling to zero by 2019 as wealthy taxpayers adjust, and a net loss of $200 million by 2027." I also like how the author just discredits everyone who doesn't agree by saying that people don't understand economics. Nice added touch to an obvious propaganda piece of no value.

I saw conbots on the national post website labelling the OECD as a socialist leftist organization. Add that to all of this bad blood they are creating!

I think people mistake Feltch for a serious poster who will rationally think about what you pointed out. He's a brick wall user with a megaphone. Will never budge, just shouts idiocies without actually reading or thinking. Just trying to berate you into submission without actually conveying any sense of rational thought.

Another hilarious comment. Fletch holds other posters to standards that could never be met by Fletch themself. Typical.

Pure comedy. You meant that as hypocritical satire I hope. Or else that's just sad. Thanks for the entertainment.

I don't. But more because of corporate lobbyists/wealthy elite who fund bogus news articles and studies to suggestively slander anything that isn't pro-corporation and anti anything beneficial to regular people. People vote with those lies in mind. I just want a government that actually governs for the people... regardless of ideology.

I seeded my lawn with clover this year for something different. Read up online about it. Since my grass was brown but the clover was more drought resistant, maintaining it's green colour. The sun beats down on my front lawn all day and I don't feel good about draining aquifers just to keep it green because that's just retarded. That and I don't really care for the "Final Solution" lawn of nothing but grass. Backyard is fine because a swale runs though it and it is more shaded keeping it greener longer. My favourite lawn that I've seen was just a bunch of low growth evergreens taking up the entire front yard. It actually looked nice, wilderness like but not overgrown. If It wasn't for my kids needing room to run around I'd probably do something different like a xeriscape.

I'm glad someone got it. Thanks BH!

Again, why do you hate your own leader?

Why do you hate your own saviour?

He's for sustainable development of the sands. Stop lying con bots.

Anyone can see the difference between supporting pipelines and not supporting the foreign oil and gas industry's ability to operate without any environmental regulation/consequences. Maybe become less of a comedic act and more of a rational poster to be taken seriously.

We need fewer regulations. Johnston shouldn't have been able to report the leak without being ostracised for being so divisive. Shunned and cast out of Alberta. Who cares about water? We let's just genetically modify ourselves to drink oil!

And they are the ones at the ministry who develop these initiatives. Board administrators might as well be politicians as they compete for "new strategies" to get pushed up the ladder.

The problem is that trades programs costs a good deal of money to run. That's why they disappeared from their any high quality level in the 90's.

100% with you. We need a proper trades program to fast track students through skilled-trades if that is where they want to go.

No-Zero Policy I disagree with it. Every teacher I know disagrees with it. The Government loves it because "Graduation Rates" can be used to indicate success. The Administration of schools love it because it gives them opportunities to come up with idiotic policies that "help" students achieve (AKA give them a free grade by dumbing down the system). We live in a world of consequences. Zero is a consequence of not doing any work. Not getting a job is the consequence of not filling in an application. We need to be teaching students how to live in a world of consequences.

Only if he has a fraud conviction.
