You are an accountant for a dicey firm that is trying to pump up it's share price, aren't you? What was the federal debt at the end of the last fiscal year. What is our debt going to be at the end of this fiscal year. And that isn't even counting the legacy costs. We aren't as bad as Europe, or even the US, but it still ain't Nirvana.

I was a co-author of a paper presented at a Canadian Society of Unconventional Gas conference which was also published in the Society of Petroleum Engineers Journal. We showed without a doubt that if the US changed all it's coal fired electrical plants to natural gas, they would more than exceed the EU desired 2020 reduction in CO2 emissions. Not to mention the other poisons that coal fired plants spew. Think about it when you bad-mouth the oilsands.

You got to tell me who your drug supplier is. There is some strong shit he is selling.

They did the crime. There are consequences. And there are significant costs given the extraordinary inefficiency of governments.

The reasons in the OP leading to lack of employment are covered by other government entitlements. We don't need to add EI to it.

An American political forum I visit, and by the way, it is way more partisan than here, has discussed the occupy movement to great length. And both the Dems and Reps agree that the Occupy movement shot itself in the foot by not being on message and appearing to just be demanding more free stuff, forgiveness of their student loans, free housing and on and on. As I say, even the very lefty liberals on that forum dissed them.

I'm a little too busy to google it right now, but many. If you include suicides, very meny.

I'm amazed no one has posted about the new Alberta premier. My guess, as a two year ex-Albertan is that this is a gift to the Wildrose Alliance.

The BC system is very expensive. And they pay a huge payment to the provincial general revenue account every year. Sucks to be me.

I have three exposures to unions. In the first, they beat the shit out of my dad. In the second, they threatened me with death. In the third, they made me waste about $5000.00 of my employer's money on total bullshit, to support a fellow union. So piss off.

So the PIIGS mean nothing to you. Especially Greece?

Which one is the cause and which one is the effect but I predict the Libs will gain and the NDP will lose. If an election were sooner the pity effect might have played a part but not on this time scale.

Mrs. RNG was an oncological dietician for 13 years. She says that often prostate cancer metastasizes to bone, as you say. But given the very rapid weight loss it is probably lung, another thing that prostate moves to, or maybe liver. And like many here, I disagreed with his politics, but respected the man. I hope Mrs. RNG is wrong.

Thank you for having the courage to say this piece of truth. I know the PC crowd doesn't want to hear it, but these people come from cultures where corruption is a fact of life, and can't understand why we aren't that way. We need to squelch that in every instance. Time to up the penalties strongly. Cybercoma, you are wrong.

Interesting. Both a logic fail and a stupid semantic argument.

I have asked forever, and no one has ever given a decent answer. What does the gun registry do to help anyone?

Mrs. RNG, the fundie, so supports the Jews because apparently the invisible man in the sky promised them something. What can you do?

You guys just don't get it. If Canada stopped exporting it's oil and gas, the country would collapse. Totally. What a joke. Go all you protectionists. (sp)

A truly despicable acquaintance of mine used to go to Thailand each year on vacation just to buy under-aged consorts. It sickened me. At least they were opposite sex. Still don't make me feel good.

Great post.

I already got one nastygram from a mod. But still, can I suggest you indulge in sex and travel?

Can you define "own source revenue"?

Typical. Try google or Wiki.

I'm a FairTax fan. And you?

If this isn't the place where is. Should I start a new thread? And yes, I am not a flat tax fan, other than it would be better than what we have now. I still think FairTax is the way to go.
