no pressure from commercial forces? is paid advertising being banned from CBC TV now? I feel bady for their 'journalists', their daily scripts are written by the PMO daily now

who funds the CBC? Why... the people... for the people! Obviously.

any examples of commercial entities forcing the programming of particular content on CBC?

Oh and by the way scribblet, shame on you for blocking another poster then posting on their updates!

Meh, conservatives call not allowing comments or answering questions, 'controlling the message'. They feel a lack of information, transparency and accountability is a good thing. Knowingly providing false information on major election issues and outright cheating during the election itself is just good politics to them.

To whom are you referring, I haven't blocked anyone. I do have two people on ignore which could mean they can't reply to me here.

I don't reply to rude people who deliberately change names either.

Im sure it was riveting, and icky.

Drawing a conclusion without knowledge. Why am I not surprised?

How many Canadian troops wrre killed during "The decade of darkness"?

Where's the new promised new APCs? Where's the promised new support ships? Where's the promised new helicopters? Where's the promised new fighter jet contract? Where's the promised new icebreakers? Where's the promised money to grow the reserves?

My guess is that the government sees political value in trotting out statements of military idolitry but at the end of the day they recognize that Canadians would benefit more from that money if it was spent on other things.

Bombed Iraq too...just like Canada did.

Maybe you didn't hear, Chretien said "non" to Bush. Oh yeah, I better explain, Chretien speaks French, "non" en francais means "NO" in English.

Just heard a good one from Letterman: He said he heard Cheney has said "we need to illiminate ISIS." Letterman's response was "good idea... dick, why don't you take them hunting"

Then thank god for the crtc!

Waldo would cheer if certain journalists were sent to special camps for re -education.

Levant would certainly be a good candidate for some kind of education.

The producing provinces already have.

Taxing carbon is taxing manufacturing jobs and the middle class.

Why does that sound like a Harper talking point and nothing else. Check the facts at how well carbon tax actually works, in BC for instance.

Now you know that Flaherty is getting a sound spanking over that. Ah yet another election promise down the tube, but I don't think it was on the script for the finance minister to announce the scam the day after the budget.

The election promise of income splitting clearly wasn't thought out or researched. Not even the finance minister has looked into it.

Sounded good... But in practice might be really stupid. Of course, most Conservatives are still for it.

I guess they are now wishing they hadn't promised it back in 2011.

Because many of the same people are involved in both parties. I guess you're not in Ontario so you don't give a flip. All I did was compare instances of political controversy. I didn't imply they were the same party. I think you protest too much.

Waldo, you have indeed not been following Ontario politics if you didn't notice Wynne campaigning on your boy's behalf.

no - you're out of proportion; there was concern on how close ties with Wynne would be perceived... so the campaign chose to limit her direct involvement.

No, Turdeau will dick about for a couple years then decide what has already been decided: ranked ballots. That absolutely ensures that the Liberals will reign many generations.

Trudeau.

Waldo has a man crush on Harper and is missing his fix.

I guess then you are also saying BC must have a similar one on Trudeau.

Hey waldo, what do you think Harper's plans are for the summer? Maybe cottage or something?

Putin invading other nations make him more popular. When will he get around to invading Poland?

It's back to the bread lines for Russian shoppers!

Putin: looks like Napoleon, acts like Stalin

These days, everyone to the left of Attila the Hun is a RINO.

Cantor was out of touch from his district. Spent more money on steak dinners than his opponent did on his whole campaign.

Apparently Cantor wasn't right wing enough for the tea party. If you can imagine that!

....look where the Liberals are now...this was a Crosby gambit, much like in the recent British election leaving Scotland to the SNP, salting the earth for new Labour North of Hadrian's fence.....

As to rumblings of Rove, I haven't heard anything to that, but attack dog Crosby makes Rove look like a poodle...I don't know that Rove would bring anything to Westminster politics.

Harper is down 3 goals in the last half of the third. In desperation he throws in the third string goalie hoping it might spur on the rest of the team. In the actual political arena, what he doesn't realize, is just how far out of touch with reality he has become. Not hard to call the outcome of the game at this point.

hey poochy, your comment is stooopid as significant more monies are being allocated towards autism.

still no thread... c'mon Shady, you claimed you were tired and wanted to relax... but that you might create a thread on Tuesday... for a hamburger today!!! C'mon Whimpy, it's now Friday - git-er-done!

You should really stick to less serious subjects, your act plays better there. O and btw, deleting some comments, including the one i was obviously referring to, to make mine look bad, just shows what kind of low brow asshole you are.

DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO!

SHTOP LOOKING AT ME, SHWAN!

Sometimes I do...sometimes I don't. Depends how I feel.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

The chairman of Abacus Data is Bruce Anderson, who first worked directly for the Liberlals in 1979. His daughter is on the staff of Justin Trudeau right now. Oh Waldo.....

oh my! And the Forum poll... who/what jigged those results, hey overwhere? Get out of your funk - think sunny ways!

Gotta side with Waldo on this.

The world does need more of our values and passion's.

My biggest problem with the PM so far is how tight he is with Wynne.

Do those values include, for example, being too cowardly to call genocide, genocide, until shamed into doing so? Maybe those are just LPC values.

That's just bullsh!t politics that I am sure Waldo could defend to the death. I am talking about real Canadians. Not the waste of space that represent us in government.

Yeah I'm sure this "Deliverologist" would be impressed by JT's government if they keep getting him work.

MLW member overthere - are you looking for a bit of waldoAttention? I've not deleted any of your status updates... do you have something you'd like to say?

post deleted by OP

Face it waldo, she's a sleeze bag.

from snopes: Portions of Clinton's sworn statement bore some resemblance to the meme. Clinton did state that the victim sought "out older men" and "engage[d] in fantasizing," but did not combine the two statements to say the girl fantasized about rape. Clinton also argued that children of that age tended to "exaggerate or romanticize sexual experience," but, again, did not say that the girl fantasized about rape.

The girl did not fantasize about RAPE (snopes clarifies) but Clinton does call her a liar and accuses her of fancying older men (as per my comment earlier).

Apparently it says they prefer the LPC.

I'd prefer herpes to aids and cancer.

It's good to be decisive.

Quit trolling my status update AW! :-)

Oh, and the lives lost to Saddam's perversion of the oil for food program. Which ended up being oil for weapons and palaces. Yep, lets not forget.

Ask the common man in Iraq what he thought of Saddam. Ask him what he thought of Bush, you know, the guy they named their kids after.

just... some... of the usual suspects. Please, can I have some more!

There are too many baby Muhammeds being born to worry about climate change.

Weather = climate. Regional seasonal variations = global climate change. 1 year of global temperature variation = climate change. 2+2 = 5.

read the opening status update again... is there more there than your fixation with just the survey facet? Whether or not the "average Canadian" is informed to your liking or not, survey input will be reviewed and evaluated accordingly.

Maybe we should also have somebody from the Taliban and ISIS so we know what direction to prepare for.

"early 2017"."

further review + implementation: early 2027.
