RNG

Come on! Trudeau, and even worse Chretien maintained such a total control over their MP's to make Harper look laise faire.

Both the Libs and the Reds are sure trying to buy votes. But from the newspapers and this here interwebz thingy, I haven't seen squat about how they figure to pay for it.

He is pretty enough. That seems to be what kept his dad in power as far as I can tell.

As I have said in other threads, Canada, even with it's evil oilsands produces, in total, 2% of the world's carbon dioxide. Even if we banned all cars, all power plants, all industry and killed all the farm alimals that breath, it would still be like a fart in a hurricane. We should destroy our economy for a useless symbolic effort?

That's an honest and open reply, for which I thank you. We may disagree on many things, but we will agree that we are gentlemen and disagree as such.

It had to be done? In that way? You sir, are really totally wrong. I wish this was in another board I regularly visit and I could then really tell you what I think of your post.

Mrs. RNG worked in a cancer clinic for 13 years. From the time she started till she retired, there were no eurika moments but there were billions of 10%'ers. That is it it now 10% better than it was a year ago and now it is 10% better than then and again and again and not saying cancer still isn't really scary, but it is way, way better than it was. And I think the same about green energy. So I have overall hope for the world, but little hope for a FUNDAMENTAL BRACKTHROUGH. Cold fusion ain't going to happen any time soon. Hydrogen fuel cells probably won't happen, but even if they do, where do we get the hydrogen? That's something the treehuggers keep avoiding. Things will get better. We will fight and moan and carry on but electric cars will become more common and finially, I hope, common sense will prevail and we will build nuke plants but not on fault lines. Life goes on.

The fact that you wouldn't give a plug nickle to any of these gentlemen prettywell nails it.

If you thought that country A was an ally, then you were flat-assed wrong. You f*cked up. Deal with it. Get better. Don't be whining about it, just get your sh*t straight and do better next time. Income trust, the way they did it was wrong.

But that's only because you falsly believe that you are some sort of superior critter. Wrong.

Compared to other forums I visit, this one seems to require really polite language. So let me say your efforts here do not inspire me at all. Saying it more plainly would risk my continued presence. Thank you.

If you are trying to say that there is a difference between me an GE, fine, but define your terms better.

I hate sematic fights, but yes, there are partnerships and sole propiortipeships but the majority of "businesses" are corporations.

I am not a Harper fan but am a small c conservative. But I just watched an Iggy TV commercial. Talk about coming across like a used car salesman! I really figured that Harper was sunk, but that commercial makes me thing Conservative majority.

To change our carbon output from 700+ MT to 100+ MT would totally destroy our economy. Plus, our carbon output, despite the "evil lizard" reputation the Libs and NDP'ers try to hang on us, isn't quite at 2% of the world's output. Get China and India on side first, then we can talk. Not to mention the US. Obama has mandated "new technology vehicles", well except for his and his guards, of course. But the US overall is terrible. Why in hell should we destroy our economy looking at those FACTS!

Sweet Frog I believe.

Bump.

Then they should have admitted that they were too stupid to understand the consequences of their actions in the first place instead of the lame excuses they made. And yes, it should have been at least grandfathered.

I am 100% owner and only director and have been the only employee of a business which is incorporated under the laws and regulations of the province of Alberta. I pay federal and provincial CORPORATE income tax. How am I not a corporation?

First, I don't see how fixed election dates and the concept of non-confidence can co-exist. Secondly, and I am staunchly small c conservative, he absolutely screwed my financially when he did his unit trust flip-flop. That was evil, like the NEP. (Well, maybe not that bad. Actually not anywhere near as bad but still a little bad.) But my choices are hoping against hope that a semi-intelligent independant runs in my riding, not voting, or holding my nose and voting for the Conservatives. All the alternatives are really bad IMHO.

Thank you. Nice to know that at least one person on this forum actually knows something.

I read the link in detail. Yup, wingnuts. But so was Reform when it first started, and toned down significantly over time. (I know, I know, still too extreme for some.) I agree with the ideals, but these guys are unrealistic. Change takes time if you want to minimize damage. The US libertarians have been around far longer and thus have been able to, I don't know how to phrase it, mellow?

The only answer is Fair Tax or equivalent.
