This is hilarious and sadly too true ...
Also check out ... http://harperdictatorship.ca/ So here's the story so far: In the last parliament Harper was a bully, pushing around opposition parties and forcing them to support his agenda. The Harper Government introduced a new culture of secrecy and centralized control. No more press conferences, and Cabinet Ministers are muzzled Harper broke his own election law by calling the last election. Attempted to bankrupt the opposition parties by introducing a motion to eliminate voter subsidies to political parties. Debate on Party Financing Wants to ban public servants from striking Attempts to dehumanize Quebec sovereigntists. Debate on including the Bloc Quebecois in the coalition Demonizes the opposition. Debate on the Ethics/Constitutionality of Coalition-Forming In this light, perhaps proroguing Parliament should be viewed as a dictatorship in function, since the PMO would remain in power and in control of the Government while the opposition is shut out and Parliament closed. Debate on the Ethics/Constitutionality of Proroguation This may be the end of the Harper reign. The Conservatives want power and as long as Harper could deliver, they supported him, even if it meant biting their tongue about some of the more outrageous moves. But he blew it - he misjudged the opposition and the troops will turn on him just like they did to Kim Campbell when she blew it with the “face” ads. Hatred is not a family value, but it characterizes a lot of Conservative politics. Last edited by ArghMonkey on Fri Dec 05, 2008 2:55 pm, edited 1 time in total. |
