I'm not an "armchair" athelete...I played football and baseball for alot of years... In what alternate universe do show up to play football with only a ball?

I wonder if the soccer nubes will have the decency on Canada Day to put away the flags they fly on their cars and put up Canadian flags???

Sadly,your last sentence is what has been going on for a long time.For far too long we have given away tax dollars with no strings attached to business entities that had no intention of using thos breaks for the original intended purpose.These entities have either sat on the cash or invested that money they received here in low standard of living jurisdictions where they could maximize profit... Frankly,this is tantamount to theft of the public purse....

So we should give away tax money to business entities who seem to be intent on employing fewer people for less money for shorter periods of time... And then throw off these funds to thier shareholders???? How 'bout some concrete conditions tied to jobs for those tax cuts/breaks?

Partisan conservative (in this case) submission to authority type... Can't stand the heat put on "The Establishment" by the likes of Assange,so,he wants to him taken down by a "sealed indictment" in an almost totally predictable "sex scandal"...

I'm a unionized employee... I've been held hostage by management more than a few times... In fact,our contract is up on Sunday night and we are only going to see the first offer on Saturday afternoon because the company refused to negotiate early... You see,that moblike hostage holding goes both ways...

Good grief... All that verbosity to tell us that business knows best and it's all about the "personal freedom"... The Canadian Federation of Independent Business and The Fraser Institute thanks you for your undying support...

Of course it is... But remember,these are the "freedom loving" Reformers in control!... What could possibly go wrong with Daddy Vic protecting us from all those child pornographers?? By the way,the fact that this was another Trojan Horse put into the "Budget Bill" proves just how sneaky these Machiavellian folks really are... "Standing Up for Canada!!!"..."Here For Canada!!!"...

It's always interesting that when someone,or a group,threatens "the establishment" the sex story smear campaign is sure to follow... Sealed indictment...

OK... Pinko!!!

This placque sits about 3 blocks from the house I grew up in... https://www.cdli.ca/monuments/on/forty.htm

The Islamofascists can't distinguish the difference...

Are you trying to say that the non union "meritocracy" and the individual workers "freedom" arguement is....I dunno.... Farcical?...Free Marketeering Bizarro World??

The free marketeers want (ed) integrated global markets and now they've got them...At least the downside... Ah....The freedom...

Where I live,there are huge reminders of The War of 1812,mainly because it fought all over the Niagara Region... The Battle of Stoney Creek The Battle of the Forty Mile Creek The Battle of Lundy's Lane The Battle of Queenston Heights Fort George Fort Niagara (across the river) Sunken American boats just off Port Dalhousie (The Scourge and...???)

Didn't you know that in Fletchworld EVERYTHING the Tories do is transparent and accountable??? It says so on the brochure so it must be true... Oh..I forgot...It's also about the "freedom"...

No!!! Particularily,in this case,when it's Islamofascism dressed up ina cloak of civility backed up by backwards Islamofascists... Then again,what was the uprising about last year if it wasn't to end military (and Ba'Athist) rule?

Ummm....That's not 3 paragraphs...

If that's the case,then those rural voters are as stupid as the rural voters who keep electing the likes of Tim Hudak in Niagara/West Glanbrook...

Do us all a favour and speak english...

Didn't you know that unions are the "cancer' that's killing the economy?? It's not the profiteering,money grubbing Capitalists who want even more unfettering of Capitalism...It's the unions of the world who are a (correct) check on the unfettered "free" market who are the problem...

What a shocker!! Next,he'll be wanting to move Ferrari production to China to avoid the three (3) different union locals in the Ferrari shop...

What I'm hearing here is that issues of globalization seem to be the problem ,as it relates to floating currency...And conservatives should focus on those things instead of using this as an opportunity to go off on an ideological bent about busting unions??

Riiiight..All unionized workers are "'tards"... I'm sure you've heared of "kaizan" work cells...We do this in the rail car industry... You do know that Warren Buffett invested over a billion dollars into BNSF about a year and a half ago,right? Are we all simply "'tards" in your free market nirvana??? And how 'bout those forced 60 hour work weeks at non union Toyota and Hinda in Ontario?? Wonder why there's been a few recalls of Toyoats products recently?
