It wasn't the lack of revenue it was the blatant over spending. They could have easily cut a lot of "pork" from the budget.

If you hadn't noticed I was blaming the conservatives for the membership voting privilege.

You know ist bad when the NDP call it a welfare budget.

This d=started the year before Ralph retired.

their attitude not the bosses.

So that doesn't stop the attitude.

Most conservatives are too busy working unlike the squeeky activists of the left.

No the problem is that most conservative are to busy working to bother to get out the vote.

Had they put a 60 day requirement on holding membership to vote it, would eliminate this crap.

One member one vote is still far superior to th delegate system.

Goes to show the problems of leting people buy memberships and voting in leadership races the day of the vote. Too many dippers and liberals have gotten in the party.

Must be a slow news day, the Hill times ran a very similar artical on march 16th yet no ads have materialized........

Are you a conspiracy nut?

So what, cisis and Customs are doing their jobs who are you to say they are not doing it properly?

so what

and yet you don't really know, its making assumptions on unfounded facts.

you are no professional or expert in how our customs departments work. You do not have all the info on this guy, you don't know what has led the civil servants looking after this case to deny him a passport. You can only speculate.

So you are an expert in Canada customs and revenue?

Really do you know the man personally? There has to be a reason why a civil servant would refuse to send him a new passport.

When did this become about immigration? Am i missing posts?

What does reparations and apologies do to stop that? Tis better to be educated about it then offer some feel good "words" throw money at it and try to forget it, thinking you've done something good and rightous.

Why not let history be history?

When will North Africa re-pay europe for the slaves the barbary pirates took from their homes and enslavd in north africa?

"Defined Contribution Pension Plan A savings plan in which both employer and employees make pre-defined contributions that are generally based on a percentage of employee salary. Contributions are tax deductible and accumulate on a tax-deferred basis. Amount accumulated is used to determine annuity amount payable upon retirement. Features In most cases, members provide their own investment instructions for the amounts contributed on their behalf. Funds accumulated cannot be withdrawn before retirement and must be used to purchase an annuity. These plans are generally better suited to employers who want to help their employees build an income for retirement.

I won't speculate on what Harper would or wouldn't do because no one knows. I wouldn't care myself, if all on the political left had one too, if they did this wouldn't be an issue would it?
