Stephane Dion wants to force Canadians to burn more money but I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt on this one because of this:
“We need a fiscal regime that will discourage pollution rather than reward it. Perhaps the time has come for Canadians to pay less tax on good things like […]

Something does not add up. I have to cheer on the NDP again in Ontario for this one:
The New Democratic Party has released documents it obtained through a Freedom of Information request to Pupatello’s economic development and trade ministry.
The documents suggest GM has so far been given about half of the $500 million that […]

Shame on Ignatieff for using the horrifying plight of the poor people for talking points. I certainly have a lot of sympathy for the victims of the natural disasters in China and Burma but I object to sending money to their governments. It makes no sense to me. Foreigners just sent tons […]

Against the backdrop of the buffoonery of Stephane Dion’s carbon tax proposal, shines a dim light from the direction of Jack Layton as he demands — on behalf of “millions of Canadians” of course — a gasoline ombudsman to field complaints.
Now, I am not going to pretend that the gasoline industry is a […]

Protecting the public? I am not so gullible. There really is no need nor is there a demand for this nonsense. Naturally — pardon the pun, the pharmaceutical companies benefit from this control of the market. You can not patent a naturally occurring product. Sorry but I am having a […]

I am stinking mad. This is a horrifying waste and I have to chalk one up for the NDP too. Here is what their justice critic Peter Kormos said:
“It’s objectionable and deplorable that this government would not want to know why an innocent person could be convicted in the first place, would not […]

This is music to my ears!
The Bloc Québécois is poised to table potentially controversial legislation giving Quebec the power to opt out of the national Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission and set up its own telecommunications regulator.
Hopefully the Bloc succeeds and leads the way to the eventual dissolution of the entire Commission.

What is this? a subsidy by any other name?
Canadian pork producers are being bailed out with $50 Million going to farmers for culling their swine. The goal is to deliberately reduce the supply to the market in an attempt to raise prices.
The program will pay farmers $225 per breeding swine killed […]

Can we destroy any incentives that may lead to this corruption from happening again? or any other corruption that is happening right now? I wonder.
Sometimes we can be suckers for punishment to the point where we are blind to the bigger picture of corruption in public office or the civil service. I do not care […]

…leaves us all wasting time, effort and money!
Finally something from the NDP that makes sense but unfortunately, the Conservatives object. Damn. Pat Martin brought this up last year too.
Getting rid of the penny will save minting costs. Furthermore, retailers will stop counting and rolling the wasted metal. The only people who […]
