  1. oh my! Harper Conservatives spent $420 thousand on niqab ban legal pursuits... how many nannies would that pay for?

      Justin is spending ten billion on bringing over refugees. I think the niqab fight, which 70% of Canadians agreed with, was reasonable.

  3. from the Huffington Post: The price tag on the Liberal program has been pegged at as much as $1.2 billion over the next six years, according to a document obtained last week by The Canadian Press. The Liberal platform only booked $250 million for the program. "Premiers and mayors are justifiably wondering how the federal government is going to pay for it,'' said NDP Leader Tom Mulcair.

      You can easily double this estimate once the provinces costs are figured in.

  5. So much for being different, http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/500k-federal-ad-campaign-to-tout-refugee-plan-as-a-national-project-document-reveals though $500,000 isn't a lot, maybe the liberals are getting a discount after all it's important to tell us what we are supposed to be, "demonstrate Canada’s compassionate values and re-affirm our global leading role in refugee resettlement." Canada is back, or at least the liberals telling us what Canada is, is.

      Don't worry, the government will design an advertising campaign to show you how you should feel.

  6. This PC nonsense will penetrate the real world and we will have to spend the next 40 years working in an environment that requires 'safe spaces' and any comment can be turned offensive. Work will become a solitude environment where it is easier to avoid talking to everyone to prevent upsetting the few.

      Anyone going to a university, particularly one like Yale, who is pretending to be a woeful member of the downtrodden crying about how unsafe they feel should be expelled for being too stupid and whiny.

  7. Aboriginal men are killed at over twice the rate of aboriginal women, yet society only cares about murdered aboriginal women. Where are the inquires for murdered and missing aboriginal men? Sexist double standard.

      Aboriginal men murder most aboriginal men, too

  10. What’s a fair salary for a fourth-grade teacher? Think of someone with about 10 years’ experience who works standard teacher’s hours, and has lots of paid preparation time, good benefits, job security and summers off. Does $94,707 sound about right? That’s what elementary teachers at the top of the scale make at the Toronto District School Board. - Globe

      Lots of people home school their children and do fine without a masters degree and teachers college. Any high school grad with the right mindset can be a teacher. Drop the salary by 30%.

  11. Corruption is a strong word, which we don’t often use in Canada when it comes to politics. It infers a blatant disregard for honesty, ethics or principle. But it’s the word that springs to mind when you contemplate the insidious relationship between Ontario’s Liberal government and the teachers unions they do so much to cultivate and please.

      The place has needed work for decades but a series of PMs has been afraid of public criticism if they renovate it as is needed. I say spend the money.

  13. Greedy Ontario teachers made secret deal with Liberals for raise. Money taken from fund for special needs children to help them graduate is going to increasing teachers salaries instead

    1. Scotty

      Scotty

      So here's how it works in Ontario. The Liberals offer up kickbacks to the public service unions, along with ever increasing salaries, and at election time, the unions pay for pro-Liberal advertising and make sure they send lots of volunteer workers to help the Liberals campaign. This ought to result in mass arrests, but somehow it's all legal.

      The number of students in Ontario schools goes down every year. The budget for those schools goes up every year. Teachers now approaching $100k salaries, and all the left can do is talk about Hudak.

  18. http://www.reddeeradvocate.com/opinion/Harper_deserves_praise_322762791.html One of the most baffling developments in the current Canadian political arena is the amount of pure hatred and anger directed at Prime Minister Stephen Harper. The reasons behind the contempt are well beyond the realm of rational thought and are firmly based in an irrational assessment of this man and his leadership.

  19. You know how Harper tries to pass off his massive cuts to environmental protection as simply reducing red tape? Well as it turns out that is a lie. Very few building projects around and over water now require environmental assessment. Water quality is in decline and fish habitats are suffering. Is anyone actually surprised? http://www.vancouversun.com/technology/story.html?id=11332148
