It applies there...It applies here...
Right to Work for less...
Check out that $5,000 a year cut in pay folks'll take by accepting this!!!
Check out that increase in death and injury on job increase that'll happen with this...
Yeah...It's all about the individual workers freedom in the workplace...
-
Wow!!
What a shocker...
Wine Tasting Tim wants to have Right to Work legislation in Ontario to keep things "competative"...
In otherwords,he wants business to write the labour laws in the province because "business knows best"...
I thought the Dominatrix of Labour in Ottawa would go after The Rand Formula,but obviously,she's working hand in hand with the Big Business/Union Busting "Merit" shop movement...
Neocon Wine Tasting Tim to the rescue where the rubber meets the road ,as it relates to labour legislation provincially...
What a gutless weasel Hudak is...
It's a sad day when these gutless,coporate bootlicking cowards have any sway with the public at all....

Sakatchewan's offence was full value for the effort...Total domination of a very poor Hamilton defence..
No D-Line pressure/Poor tackling/Poor coverage...Trading Field Goals for Touchdowns...
Other than Chevon Walker and Chris Williams effort on the offensive side of the ball,no one else showed up...
Hamilton deserved every ounce of that loss...
-
Interesting 1st half in the Sask/Ham game...
Hamilton D really can't get alot of pressure on Darian Durant but they have made adjustments elsewhere and have slowed down the Sask O...
Stupid penalties and non-challenges have been the Ti-Cat undoing so far.Burris and Chris Wiliams have been on fire,but,other than the run by Chevon Walker,the offence hasn't done a whole lot.
Kinda what I expected from both teams after 2 pre season games and only 1 month in camp...
-
What is up with the Rider helmets???
-
Isnt it a girl sport?
oh yeah....
Our resident "teacher" feels it's more about thugs and "grunting"...
Anyway,soccer is irrelevent and the fans of that stuff can bask in their knowledge that they follow something THEY think is superior...
Now on to REAL football!!!
-
Icke is a mad man, I swear.
Jones was talking about FEMA camps...Skolnick was talking about black helicopters...And Icke was talking about his alien lizard people theory...
It was totally crazy...Hillarious,though,because they took phone calls!!!!

That's a hell of a lazy dodge...the tax credit would have to be large indeed for any serious number of Canadians to be able to quit earning income.
You're also dodging the fact that it is an entitlement scheme.
In fact, you endorse it. Not only do you endorse the entitlements....you endorse a particularly elitist brand of it, since only the almost-wealthy-enough Canadians would benefit in the way you claim would be its entire point.
Which rather proves my point about Conservatives and "small Government."
A conservative who's really a closet elitist and for legislative sops to socio/economic elites???
MMmnnoooo....Impossible....
-
CFL season openers tonight...
Saskatchewan in at Ivor Wynne to face the Tiger-Cats (This is the final season of Ivor Wynne Stadium,by the way)
And a Grey Cup rematch between the Blew Bummers of Mosquitoville and the BC Lions...
-
I had the "pleasure" of listening to a three way conversation between Jones,the late Sherman Skolnick,and,David Icke...
Complete and total lunacy at its finest...

As I pointed out elsewhere, most conservatives support a certain big-ticket item called "healthcare."
The tough-on-crime" stance is explicitly a call for bigger government. The expressed wishes for greater surveillance powers (as well as their already-in-place expansions, which the Conservatives endorse) are unquestionably Big Government.
An expressed desire to commit to greater military expenditures?
that's big government, too. It doesn't matter if it's a good idea or not...it remains a "big government" ideal.
Harper embraces big government...he only doesn't embrace social spending (which, contrary to extremely lazy claims, are not in and of themselves "big government", or not in the scary way of the scatter-brained pseudo-libertariasn among us, most of whom wish for a return of the death penalty! (THE biggest of "Big government" initiatives in existence, bar none.)
To a sadly large extent, much of the "big government" scaremongering is only about frigging taxes!
Authoritarianism is the bigger deal. Adn while the conservatives have made a couple of good moves on this front (the HRCs, for example, and Section 13) I don't think anyone's accusing the Tories of lacking in authoritarian tendencies.
Kudos....
Well said...

Rather than insult your grammar, I will point out to you that your grasp of grammatical rules is what makes understanding your very post here possible.
So, obviously, you're dead wrong.
And: "math facts"?
Are you kidding me? Math is integral, crucial. We couldn't do away with it even if we wanted to.
Which we don't.
"math facts"...
(pausing to breath so I don't suffocate from extreme laughter)

Most of Ontario has far more in common with light Harper-esque Conservatism than it does with Quebec's desire for social spending and coddling. Look where support stands in Ontario for the NDP - Windsor, Niagara Falls, Hamilton, Northern Ontario and the dump areas of Toronto (ie places that need coddling).
Coddling???
You mean areas of Ontario that have been hit hardest by neoliberal economic theories...The theories that are championed by conservatives and the PC party in Ontario...
-
Right, you just want the controls that your beliefs deem necessary and what could be wrong with that, you being you after all.
Huh?
-
Its strange that you can say that when you folks continually support the desire of police to have everything they think is a good idea, just who is it that wants that police state now? But then if history is a guide it isn't always the political right, it isn't so much a dirty little secret as it is one were just supposed to ignore.
History tells us that the political right and the poltical left,on the authoritarian side,LOVE the idea of the "police state"...
See NAZI Germany,Fascist Italy,Fascist Spain,Fascist Portugal,Marxist USSR,Marxist China,MarxistNorth Korea,Marxist Cambodia as examples..

was that the NQP?
I think you've taken the Geritol at the wrong time,gramps

Of course. I'm imbibing. Plus, it sounds more feminine to imbibe beer than gulp beer.
I'm sure. I imbibe the hard stuff only occasionally and in small quantities. Now, four beers later I'm ready for bed. It's almost 11pm here in the nation's capital.
Wimp!!!
I've already finishd less than a 1/4 of a 750 and I'm still hanging in!!!
It also 11 PM in beautiful Beamsville,Ontario and I've been up since 4 AM...

I forgot, you're not married right?
I call it my own personal, don't ask her, don't tell her policy
I am married...And I never dress in womens clothing...While she's around!!!
-
Nah, no dress, but it has the same stealth characteristics as an F-35
So..A cross dresser waiting to come out....
Pride Day approaches,kiddo...Reach for the rainbow!!!
-
Orangina and Grey Goose.....Out of Minute Maid
Yeesh...A man that admits he's a fan of homemeade (pseudo) Screwdrivers...
Are you wearing a dress,sweetheart???
-
Thousands wouldn't believe you, but I do.
I'm drinking beer so I don't have to imbibe. Gulp! Gulp!
If one is consuming...One is,by definition,imbibing...
Bet my bourbon buzz is better than your beer buzz!!!!

I saw it in Coles the other day, I'll have to pick it up.......
I saw him years ago reference the diet in an interview..... Though I don’t follow it to the same extreme, red onions and crunchy (natural) peanut butter makes a tasty sandwich
Keep in kind,this is a New York Times Best Seller...
I picked it up in Coles about 3 weeks ago (in hardcover!!!) for less than 10 bucks!!
I wanted to read it when it came out,but,I wasn't going to pay the near $40 bucks for it...
Less than $10??...Done deal!!
Love The 'Stones...
-
Are you sure you didn't help Sullivan draft his private member's bill?
I didn't...And that's the truth!!
I have been imbibing in Jim Beam bourbon this evening,though!!
That's kind of scary...

Please report the posts in question and move on from this.
I realize that disasters are a sensitive topic but discussing it in this way isn't progressive; you're only antagonizing each other over this, which isn't discussion.
Done...
Hudak vs unions
in Provincial Politics in Canada
Posted · Edited by Jack Weber
I've suspended my personal policy of putting folks like you on ignore for the moment because this is far too important...
Seriously,what planet are you living on???
Do you understand the precedent setting nature that this proposed legislation by Hudak would have?
Their is no way on God's green earth that this will only apply to the public sector!
It will,necessarily,apply to the private sector as well!!
And it's designed to do so!!!
I have my problems with the public sector also,however,this is definately NOT what this is about...It is the provincial attack,started by the federal Tories( with regards to Bill C-377) to attack the Rand Formula and "compulsory" union membership.As I have illustrated many times,we work under the framework of Agency Shop" in this province and no one...NO ONE... is forced to join a union against his/her will...
It's about pitting one worker against the other and forcing individual union locals to represent free ride members to the financial detriment of that local...
And it,by definition,is designed to make people poorer under the guise of "personal freedom" and is being heavily lobbied by corporate entities who have an all too sympathetic ear in Ottawa,and clearly,in opposition at Queens Park...
