And another thing about that Jack Layton


Recommended Posts

Back to the original topic.

The party of a million tax increases is reversing field. In the campaign, Mr. Layton will reveal a pledge to slash the GST on all products that are considered family essentials.

It must be nice to make promises you will never have to keep. This way they can be completely unrealistic.

Imagine the money it would take to identify which products were meant by this, identify them at sale, then continue to okay or deny family status for GST purposes and then police retailers to make sure then don’t miss label. The missus of this would be huge.

This would cost more than the gun registry.

What economic school did Dr Jack go too? I just want to make sure I don't hire any alumni.

At the time when Mr Robinson made his motion, did the federal NDP support him? Also, what is the current NDP stance with the laws that pertain to the age of consent?

Does Mr Robinson speak for the NDP or himself?

I can't say for sure, but it's quite likely Robinson's motion was reflective of NDP policy, which calls for equal treatment uder the law for everyone (again, the age itself was not the issue, rather the activity itself).

(Maybe someone could start a seperate thread on the Age of Consent issue?)

Undergraduate degree in Business Administration, post graduate work in leadership and strategy.

I am a speaker on ethics and business measurement. That is about all I will say as it is nice to have a little anonymity when one has to work in the business world and I like to be candid on this forum.
