First the Martin machine had the wheels come off in saskatchewan, then Dion on air Inuit, now the liberal express. Might as well call an early election guys just get over with, he’s just another foreigner here to exploit us.
Do we know that the driver was a white male? Was it bilingualism? I doubt they will say.
So in a place like alberta where women are almost twice as likely to take time off work it’s easy to understand why Human rights comissions fine companies for hiring too many males. How else can the feminists spread their tripe.
No where in this country do men lose as many days as women, no where.
When I wrote about this issue a few weeks ago an Ontario Liberal MP admitted to me that many in his party did not like the bill but were afraid of being painted as anti-French if they voted against it, as the Tories can now clearly see, that is what is happening to anyone opposed to this bill. What the bill is also allowing the Bloc to do is show that once again they are needed to protect Quebec and the French language.
The left have been telling us for decades that a workforce needs to reflect the makeup of the country. Well this uninclusive bill will hardly do that. It will make sure that prestigous appointments only go to a select few toffy nosed frenchies.
Many of whom can’t do that well with English anyway, but they are the elite and by divine right every Canadian has the right to be ruled by Quebecois.
Official bilingualism may have succeeded in getting more federal services provided in both French and English, but it has not moved the needle more than a few notches in making individual Canadians personally bilingual. Thirty-five percent of Canadians may speak two languages, but more than half of these speak French or English and another non-official language, such as Mandarin or Punjabi.
Just 17% of Canadians claim to be bilingual French-English,
Bill C-232, introduced by New Brunswick NDP MP Yvon Godin, would require all future Supreme Court nominees to be able to hear cases in French or English without the aid of official translators. All three opposition parties voted in favour of this distortion of reason, democracy and unity; only the Tories opposed it
MONTREAL — Quebec MP Maxime Bernier laid into his home province Friday night,
“Let’s be frank: many people in the rest of the country perceive Quebeckers as a bunch of spoiled children who are never satisfied and always ask for more,” according to the text of a speech the Beauce, Que., backbencher was to give to members of two riding associations.
“This perception has some basis in reality.”
“Since the 1970s, we’ve talked a lot about political independence, about the constitution, we’ve held referendums. And meanwhile, we’ve built a system of economic dependence that’s become more and more elaborate. Quebec has one of the biggest and most interventionist governments in North America,” he said.
“While we were debating independence, we accumulated an enormous debt and we became dependent on borrowed money to fund an unsustainable level of public services . . . the political choices that were made in Quebec in the past four decades have led us in a dead end. If we do not change direction soon, we’re going to hit a brick wall.”
“Mr. Duceppe also complained, as he has been doing for 20 years, that Quebec did not get enough money from the federal government.
“So in short, Mr. Duceppe, who is fighting for Quebec independence, laments the fact that Quebec is not enough economically dependent on the rest of Canada. He wants Quebec to get more money, he wants us to be even more dependent!”
The text went on to say that Quebec will get this year $8.5 billion in equalization payments — more than half of the $14 billion in the program.
“As a Quebecer, I am not really proud of the fact that we are a poor province that gets equalization money. And if we are poorer, it’s not the rest of Canada’s fault,” Bernier said. “It should be obvious enough that unbridled state interventionism does not lead to prosperity. If that were the case, Quebec would be the richest place in North America instead of being one of the poorest.”
(Quebec) Of tens of thousands of people, 30.000 according to certain sources, up to 50.000 according to others, answered the invitation launched by the organizer Sylvain Bouchard of FM 93 and encircled the National Assembly Sunday in order to protest in a peaceful way against the budget deposited by the Minister for Finance Raymond Bachand.
“I think that it is a clear symbol of the acute écoeurite of the population towards the wasting with the government. If that does not change, the next blow of glare will be even larger! ”, declared Of Anjou, evoking the possibility of organizing one day of general strike in all Quebec. Babel fish
Would the world notice if they went on a general strike? Would it lower my taxes?
Ok it’s a translation so the grammar is funny but like an immigrant in university as long as you can make something out of it they deserve a B if not better. Well I do know the University of Winnipeg uses a double bell curve. Don’t they all?
LOL, look at that last line again. So they, well us taxpayers, are investing in high to mid income families, who often will earn more than those paying taxes to support them, and for all the boilerplate rhetoric the program loses 60% of the money! Frikkin amazing. Course all the people who want to analyze this well the people who want the program are like a fat person wanting a couple more meals at McDonalds. They just want it and who cares if ordering 3 burgers is bad for them.
Yet the day care Nazi’s want me to pay for this abomination to subsidize the well off,….
Though it all there is this underlying question, where, oh where, is love.
So, the Bloc Quebecois — under the leadership of Gilles Duceppe — really are a partner in the coalition if you can believe what CTV is reporting.
Funny that, since we have heard ad nauseum that the Bloc separatists are NOT a member of the coalition, just that they would support the Liberals and NDP, for 18 months.
Okay, who is telling the truth? They either are members of the coalition or they aren’t.
Since ALL Canadians — not just those who voted for the opposition losing parties —  have a right to know what the Bloc’s role is, let’s hear about it now BEFORE the budget is tabled.
Therefore, since the Bloc Quebecois is needed to make it possible for the coalition of Liberals and NDP to exist, they are a signatory and a member of the coalition — non?
It was a solid rally, lots of folks making plenty of noise, apparently a few folks from the “other side” showed up to cause some trouble but I missed it. If I had to guess I’d say there was a few thousand of us there, possibly more I don’t have the slightest clue how to estimate a crowd’s size.  Below is Stephen Taylor speaking.
The first speaker was Stephen Fletcher who spoke quite well, as did Stephen Taylor and Pierre Poilievre who had probably the best speech…He got so into it he started a sentence with “Mr. Speaker…..well I’m sure Peter Milliken is here somewhere”. The most pasionate speech was given by a pastor who was at one point arrested in Egypt and tortured extensively for running some churces over there (wish I could remember his name) and He just got his Canadian citizenship a few years ago…fantastic speaker with a tonne of conviction.
It’s nice to see this behavior from easterners again not one professionally made sign by the professional grievance industry who do pay people to show up at these things for the left.
