marksman Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 I know what the use of the war measures act was in response to 2 kidnapings. YES REALLY 2. Never before was the War measures act used not in two world wars, not in the War in 1812, not at any other point in Canadian History. He stepped on the rights of all Canadians that day, and showed his tendancies to socialist totalitarian control. That is the history of the left in this country. Noone's going to take your posts seriously if you can't even do basic fact checking or a simple reality check. The war measures act wasn't used in 1812 because it didn't exist then. It was used in both ww1 and ww2. It was used in the October crisis not just because of 2 kidnappings but also for reasons that included the Quebec premier and mayor of montreal requesting it be used. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_Measures_Act http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/ind...s=A1ARTA0008439 Quote
Who's Doing What? Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 Is this how you deal with disruptive students? I'm not seeing that careful management of distractions and that liberal philosophy of embracing different motivatiosn and goals here, guy. I'm seeing an intollerance of disagreement which is pretty much what you implied were the markings of a conservative. Nah..... This is how he deals with guys like you. Personally I prefer a more cereberal approach. Quote Harper differed with his party on some key policy issues; in 1995, for example, he was one of only two Reform MPs to vote in favour of federal legislation requiring owners to register their guns. http://www.mapleleafweb.com/election/bio/harper.html "You've got to remember that west of Winnipeg the ridings the Liberals hold are dominated by people who are either recent Asian immigrants or recent migrants from eastern Canada: people who live in ghettoes and who are not integrated into western Canadian society." (Stephen Harper, Report Newsmagazine, January 22, 2001)
