Thread Name: BS: What's the matter with Canada?
Subject: RE: BS: What's the matter with Canada?
Green shift plan is way too complicated for average people to understand - like me for instance, and although everyone seems to know that we need to address climate change and new clean energy sources- most people just want cheaper gas prices for their cars now and are simply not ready to seriously tackle that issue in this election. We are in for a Conservative dictatorship and hard times for many social issues including funding for the arts, health care, climate change - many programs to be cut in favour of tax cuts to business and oil companies over the next few years. The same political opportunist cronies that ruined the Ontario economy under Mike Harris will be in charge of Canada's economy and social programs. We will be turning back the clock instead of moving forward - too bad. The Liberals unfortunately deserve to be shot down again because of their past corruption when in power and ineptitude in voting for important issues in parliament and also electing the wrong guy as leader of the party to win over Canadians in this election. I've seen this all before with the conservative Brian Mulroney government - and in a few years if and when Harper really messes things up and Canadians get totally fed up with government ineptitude, we'll throw them out of power once again. The beat goes on.
