the price for truth???

New Democrat MP Olivia Chow, her party’s transport critic, accused the government – which has been hit by controversies involving other port authorities – of stacking the Oshawa board with Conservative insiders. Mr. Valcour is the past president of the Conservative riding association in Finance Minister Jim Flaherty’s Oshawa-Whitby riding, while Chris Kluczewski, part of the port’s board of directors, was also a member of the riding association.

you smell tory-shit? its starting to REEK. Ethanol sourced from corn UNETHICAL: indulges the wealthy, punishes the poor. Municipality opposed? citizens upset? here's some tory-speak: FUCK YOU!

“full on both sides ... Now it's … bare."

pirates' spent over $500,000, and hung their ECONOMIC STIMULUS SIGN for all to see, a family donated $250,000 and other fundraising amounted to about $3.5M. The place looks great, really spruced up the Hood. but GUESS WHAT? THERE'S NO FUCKING FOOD TO DISTRIBUTE!!! this is in my neighbourhood amidst MANY HUNGRY CHILDREN. shameful.

"It's uncontroversial that working for the RCMP can make you sick, so why would I want to return my patients to the toxic environment that made them sick in the first place?"

amongst the RCMP you're not allowed to express a critical OPINION. Its A TORY CRIME because since the pirates took power, they've done little to clean up the mess THAT HAS BEEN KNOWN TO MOJ FOR MANY YEARS. COMPLICIT. Their psychologist is being castigated because he labelled the workplace toxic; is being blackballed because of his critical opinion. the RCMP needs to be dismantled.

Mr. Qiu said he provided $152,500 in the summer of 2008 to one of the provincially chosen, private intermediary firms that was to invest his cash in a P.E.I. business. He said he expected he would receive shares in a P.E.I. firm and be allowed to immigrate to Canada. Instead, Mr. Qiu said he received a federal rejection letter in January 2010 that said his documentation wasn’t acceptable.

its called the kenney kiss-off

The study conducted by the B.C. Centre for Excellence in HIV/AIDS found that despite decades of efforts to combat drugs, heroin, crack, cocaine, crystal meth and marijuana can be obtained within minutes, particularly by young drug users.

how is it that one can BUY ANY DRUG WITHIN 10 MINUTES but it takes over a year to find a family physician, weeks to get medical tests scheduled? why is it when you get to the hospital for the test you see patients lined up in the hallways? the reason: COSTS OF PROHIBITION. If cannabis were legalized, BILLION$ could be funnelled into health care.

man when i go to the pharmacy i gotta wait at least 15-20 minutes to get my scripts filled.

As well, Elections Canada found that Penashue had obtained a loan for $25,000 from the Innu Development Limited Partnership - a firm managed at the time by Penashue's brother-in-law - after some cheques written by his own campaign had bounced.

nothing irregular about this and the many other oddities of the last federal election. the pirates are immune to any sanction. perhaps the scorn will be felt at the next election?

"However, trends have been less favourable among those of lower socioeconomic status (SES), leading to a widening gap in mortality between rich and poor," says the study. Titled "Universal drug coverage and socioeconomic disparities in diabetes outcomes,” it was released Monday in the publication Diabetes Care.

we need to LEGISLATE LOWER SALARIES FOR MPS, MLAS and divert those dollars to ensure INDIGENT ELDERLY don't have to CHOOSE BETWEEN MEDS AND EATS. Fucking MPs earn so much dough for so little productivity. They can afford $20,000 and more in annual pension contributions (our money) when HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF GRANNIES HAVE TO SURVIVE ON FAR LESS. Food security and access to medications.

“Most of the problem with these harassment investigations is the fact that they were handled by what is now, your management team,” Kennedy wrote.

Yup, the bitching begins. Those about to lose their management jobs will be spitting venom. FIRE THOSE WHO EXPOSE THEIR COCKS TO SUBORDINATES AND INVITE THEM FOR SEX ON THE JOB: a lateral job transfer is inappropriate discipline. If this happened in CIVILIAN WORKPLACE: perpetrator would be fired, convicted, pilloried in the press, imprisoned for the maximum time, labelled a predator, forced to submit DNA and perhaps forced into accepting the title dangerous violent offender. But if you're a MOUNTIE??? TOP DOWN. fire the managers too. sweep clean the slate and start over. REALLY CANT MANAGE POLICING (RCMP)

"I'm quite shocked frankly that this government didn't do its homework," the NDP's foreign affairs critic Paul Dewar said

captain blah said 'due diligence' had been done: baird is using the magic 8 ball oracle again. so why the sudden reversal? squander a few more millions carelessly, it is the pirate legacy.
