Imagine Pegy Nash as PM

[lukin]

The fact that she could become the PM of Canada is a scary proposition. The NDP seems full of wing-nuts. Look at the NDP supporters on this forum, which tells the tale in black and white. These socialists have no idea how to run a prosperous country.

The Toronto MP describes Harper's Canada as a country of growing inequality, record personal debt, hopelessness among youth and a federal government that continually tells people to expect less.

"I don't think that's normal," Nash told The Canadian Press in a wide-ranging interview Thursday.

"I think that's wrong."

She's right.

[lukin]

She's right.

That's what the kooks say.

[PhilosopherKing]

She's right.

I agree, but I don't see how she can blame it on Harper. And I have no idea why she thinks a 'financial transaction' tax would deter speculators.

Could she be any scarier than Harper has been thus far? not bloody likely

[lukin]

Prosperous for whom?

For working Canadians who don't expect big nanny government to control their lives; that's who.

What's scary about Harper? Please answer after you hang your tin foil hat on the nail.

What's scary about Harper? Please answer after you hang your tin foil hat on the nail.

Where to start, union busting a private company? Closing the Wheat Board when a majority of farmers voted to keep it? Wasting tax payers money on waging court battles against Insite Safe Injection facility when all evidence suggested it did more good than bad? The dumb on crime bill which even the U.S has spoken out against and the fact that pedophiles get a lesser sentence than people dealing Marijuana? All the prisons he plans on building when our crime rate is the lowest in decades? Supporting ISRAEL when we have no interests in Israel?

His support for and new position for Tony Clement? His selling Canadians out to the Americans in the new security perimetre? Pro rouging Parliament twice to avoid being embarrassed? Being in contempt of Parliament? Buying Jets with one engine and claiming they are for the Arctic when we all know 1 engine jets make little sense up there?

I could go on but you get the jist of it

It would most certainly help with the speculators who drive the price of oil, food etc up for no valid reason other than their own greed...

You are so misinformed it's embarrassing. Layoff the Heather Mallick nectar. For one thing, many farmers are against the CWB, yet they have no chance of marketing the fruits of their own labour because of the socialist CWB. The farmers who are against the CWB still want the CWB around for those who still wish to use it. However, the socialists, like you, don't want people to have choice.

Pedophiles deserve to be in jail for a LONG time, despite what you wish for.

You say many farmers are against the CWB which is true BUT a majority of Farmers voted to keep the CWB so while you are right you are also wrong. Majority is a majority.

Pedophiles deserve to be in Prison and to have their genitals lopped off BUT I can't see why Harper is going hard after Marijuanna dealers or users .... I'd have to question your brain if you think mandatory sentences of 6 months for being caught with 6 pot plants and mandatory 2 years for selling near schools is justified...that does not make a socialist, I find it HILARIOUS that you consider me a socialist

but hey I guess I can call you a fascist then eh?

you are so full of shit man

I can't believe how truly clueless you are. Have you heard of any kids being sold marijuana by these innocent dealers that you mention, and smoking dope laced with meth? Dealers need to be locked up too. It amazes me how an idiot like you can feely pity for pot dealers. They cause problems. Grab a clue buddy.

Yup. That's what everyone here is advocating. Selling meth-laced weed to children.

What is with everyone and their strawman arguments lately?

- he stifles debate (re: Gun Registry bill, Wheat Board bill)

- he has said some pretty outlandish things in the past (re: Alberta firewall)

- he does not adhere to professional opinion (re: Stats Canada, Nuclear Commission, the GST)

- he is overly partisan (re: typical Conservative rhetoric)

...want me to keep going?

*yawn* But he does have a majority. Too bad for you socialists.

Gotta call a spade a spade.

[lukin]

Harper should force all Western farmers to market their CANOLA through the wheat board. Then we would be witness to some hilarious irony.

Socialist? I am probably more conservative than the majority of the Conservative caucus. Check yourself before you start attacking my character.

Now if you have a real rebuttal to my list of reasons to fear Harper I would like to hear it, otherwise just sit down.

No federal conservative party has balanced the budget since the 1800s. So be careful when throwing around the ability to make the country prosperous along partisan lines.

1. They've been debating the LGR for years. Now the majority is doing away with the useless, costly LGR.

2. If you are a Conservative, how can you be in favour of a monoply which FORCES all farmers to systematically obey.

3. Said outlandish things??? Who hasn't? How many years are you going to go back?

4. If statscan Nuclear Commission and the GST were important, he wouldn't have received a majority.

5. Bob Rae, Nicole Turmel, Pat Martin,Libby Davis, Mark Holland and the list goes on, aren't partisan?? How dumb of a comment is that.

6. You're a Conservative.....I don't think so.
