  1. yep. I'd vote for that set of baggage in a heart beat, and so would 31% of Canadians as of today. We're gettng closer!
  2. Nice try Norman (not really), having confusion over what the Muslim God is does not constitute a slam, it constitutes uncertainty.
  3. I never said all conservatives are untrustworthy nor did I say that all liberals are trustworthy. Claiming that I did is referred to as creating a straw man argument. There is no shortage of trustworthy individuals in both camps. As far as Quebec goes, Stephen Harper is in fourth place, lower than any conservative candidate ever has been in Quebec. Quebec won't separate and they'll continue to elect Liberals, even in 2006. But the shutout of CPC in Quebec guarantees they can't govern. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Your information may be a little dated since Quebec now hates Liberals. Ever hear of the Gomery Inquiry?
  4. And a right handsome set of baggage it is. Btw, Martin did his thing during a prolonged growth cycle in the nineties and still had to gut the military and our health care system to do it.
  5. Actually I'm not sure if they believe in the same God or not. They call their God Allah. Maybe it's the same God, I haven't studied the Muslim religion. What's your point? By the way, I never said that Muslims believe in a seperate God, since I don't know. Reread my post, I was only saying that Jews and Christians have the same God so of course they wouldn't persecute each other, since you seemed surprised that it wasn't French Christians but Muslims persecuting them.
  6. Well, you'll have to add to the Martin side his cutting of transfer payments in the mid nineties and doing nothing about the long health care line ups that even our Supreme Court said was unconstitutional. The Liberal Romanov Report also previously said our health care system needed change. The Liberals did nothing for about a decade, and now they start making all kinds of promises during a campaign. Harper, on the other hand, doesn't have all that baggage.
  7. What, so you're okay with conservative voters moving to Canada?
  8. Martin looks bad in this issue. He actually uses private health care while trying to defend his 'solution' for public health care. Well, all the more votes for the CPC!
  9. Note to Normy: That's because Christians and Jews believe in the same God and most of the same religious ideals. But you should be concerned about more religious conservatives moving to Canada, they might affect your chances of the Liberals getting back into power.
  10. He did reduce their value and caused much unneeded stress to many seniors who depend on these investments to pay the bills. Again should I inclued more actual examples of Liberal MPs that lied or will you relent to the fact they are not trustworthy. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Willy, I'm afraid that Norman only considers conservatives untrustworthy. Liberals can so badly blow it that they may have singlehandedly caused Quebec to separate but Conservatives are scary. I'm sure you see the lack of any logic there.
  11. Harper is trying to fix the Health problem created by the Liberals in the nineties when they cut transfer payments to the provinces. Martin supporters are surprised that no one believes him about his health care plans since he caused it in the first place. Add to that Martin's personal doctor works in a private clinic and you have more Liberal hypocrisy.
  12. Yes, I believe there are more Jewish voters. Certainly since we are getting an influx of Jewish people from France and other European locales where they are experiencing more and more anti semitism.
  13. Well Norm, I'm glad we can agree on something! Harper does make sense doesn't he? I notice you completely ignore the part of my post that stated the reason Canada is in this mess in the first place. That's okay, most Canadians remember.
  14. That's because they've proven themselves to be untrustworthy my friend.
  15. Yes, I've said elsewhere that Martin's health is a concern. He's over 70 and this extra long grueling campaign in the winter may just prove too much for him. The latest poll numbers out today in the National Post say the Liberals have slipped to 34% and conservatives 31%. If his health fails, they will lose for sure.
  16. Harper's new health care policy makes a lot of sense to the average Canadian. Limit wait times and avoid a two tier system. On the other hand, the Liberals started this whole mess by cutting transfer payments to the provinces in the mid 90s when Martin was finance minister. And since there is an election coming, Martin's going to fix the medical system. Fat chance. They've even done nothing after the Romanov Report came out several years ago about our health care system, and this is a report they commissoned!
  17. If you go back and read my earlier message, you'll see that the "religious freedoms" concerns in regard to C-250 are far from bogus. -k <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Kimmy, I'm afraid that when it's put in black and white for some people they just side step and keep going. An excellent post, though.
  18. I don't know, there's 54 days left in the campaign and it's going to be during the worst of winter. Martin may just overdue it and have a health emergency. This might just play into the CPC hands.
  19. Well, they are going to fix the problem, and then a greater portion of the Canadian people will be happy with it. That's democracy I suppose.
  20. The amendments weren't enough for the radical left wing judges Martin has been appointing. They will find loop holes unless the protections are more than they are.
  21. If I was gay and the word marriag got taken away from me after less than a year, I would't mind, as long as the rights were still there. You're hung up on a simple word Norman.
  22. I believe the reasons were it didn't offer enough protection for religious types to speak their conscience on the gay issue without being arrested for hate crimes. Of course the Liberals can be accused of catoring to another minority groups for the sole purpose of trying to influence votes come an election. This is all the more true since only 6 or 7 nations in the whole world had any kind of legal gay unions at the time.
  23. In refering to liberals attacking, I was referring to Canadians in general. Martin has been attacking the plan and your usual assortment of liberals. By the way, speaking of fish, Martin is really looking unhealthy lately, how old is he I wonder. There comes a point when one has to slow down and I think this campaign is too much for him.
  24. The bottom line is use of the word marriage. If so many are concerned about that, what's wrong with a compromise word like union. Gays still get all the rights, just by a different word.
  25. Gays are a very small minority group, yet they receive more attention than natives do in Canada. They should be given the attention that their numbers warrant. That's fair, isn't it?
