I agree! Lots of interesting push and pull forces at play here. Number of seats makes this a nailbiter. I think an election at this time would yield pretty much the same results as last time...a Liberal minority. That said, I would welcome an election. Throw the rascals out I say. I would like...

anyone have measurements of Nikki of Orillia?

ahhh... ...thanks Winston. so...one needs the recipient's transit number & bank account number? guess I need to call her but hate to be a pest. I would like to help Annessa, maybe I'm just a sucker for a pretty face...but after all the debating and guys spouting 'rent law' to each other, we...

Winston, tried to PM you but full up. How does one email money? thanks,

If I must pay tax, I prefer 'visible' taxes like GST rather than the old 'buried' FST or manufacturer's tax.

welcome to Canada, land of wealth and privilege, if you choose the right parents. if we Canadians had any balls, we'd storm the gates of Ottawa...I can think of several worthy causes...Arar, Kazemi, Sponsorgate, BSE...and on and on and on... nothing gets the government's attention like a...

me too please.

...at sponsorship hearing. How do you feel about publication bans?

wow, someone (no pun intended) else who actually thinks about Canadian politics! thanks for coming...better than Winston and I duking it out alone. No, I was not out there protesting, difficult to get away from the farm...even the cows are mad! No blood in the streets, this is Canada. You guys win.

'sober second thought' ... yes, I've heard that justification since I was a child. In reality, a senate seat is a political plum...nice work if you can get it, and you can get it if you try.

neither senate nor gg would dare run counter to the elected HofC. If they did, there would be blood in the streets of Ottawa...or at least there should be blood in the streets, if Canadians had half a clue.

4) the small number of replies to this thread indicates that Canadians are as dozy as Senators such a sad state of affairs...

Winston, I'm not surprised at all. I was pointing out the uneven media coverage. Jack and the NDP are ignored by the media. Just to be clear on a few points... 1) I do not support any political party 2) I believe the senate should be abolished. The concept of an appointed body which can...

caught the CTV dinner hour news tonite, new senate appointments, talk of six Liberal appointees including Eggleton and D'Allaire (sp?), talk of two 'Progressive' Conservative appointees...but not a single word about the New Democrat appointee, not a word...now why do you think that is??? btw...

I agree...I have the same dream. cheers,

such a waste of money. Canada has a huge geographical area, population less than California, we are not a world power so forget it. btw, any of you hawks miss the rent payment this month or had to drop by the food bank to feed your kids? I thought not. Please remember that 1 in 5 Canadian...

her poor judgement is amply demonstrated by her party affiliation. :)

Winston, clearly you do not work in agriculture. :) Pay down the debt. Period. Zero for the military. It's a joke, let's put it out of it's misery. Canada is a banana republic. Last thought...given the poverty in this country (1 in 5 families living below the poverty line) it is obscene...

I will applaud the next terrorist attack on US soil. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

DQ, Canada has this problem as well. I'm unclear on the connection you are making between rich/poor, left/right...if indeed you intended such a connection. Please expand...
