Wh...And interesting point about the nuclear idea... Why has Harper done it all on the 'Q' 'T'?<BR/>No big policy announcement, no standing on the shores of the mucky tar sands to say how going nuke is the best way to solve our GHG issues?<BR/>Perhaps he is aware that this would be a controversial issue in his own house (as it would be if a Liberal gov't embraced it) and would rather 'Income Trust it', ie lie, deny and accuse, then flip-flop after an election.burlivespipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18048415779214466831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-32388885750432751702008-06-23T17:45:00.000-07:002008-06-23T17:45:00.000-07:00Old School is using 'Old Hat' CON talking points, ...Old School is using 'Old Hat' CON talking points, which always conveniently leave out their own party's own actions. There is no correlation between their talk, either.<BR/>Is this one reason why, instead of talking policy comparisons and showing why their way is the right way, Harper et al can only go on screech patrol, shouting 'Stinkin Lincoln'! -reference to a hilarious SCTV skit from way back...<BR/>Will this be discussed in the MsM?burlivespipehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18048415779214466831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-32316856713378832072008-06-23T14:18:00.000-07:002008-06-23T14:18:00.000-07:00Oldschool: Harper's documents have been in the pu...Oldschool: Harper's documents have been in the public domain since March. The quote Mr. Goodale uses is DIRECTLY FROM the Conservative documents. <BR/><BR/>"...since things just keep getting colder here in Canada". You sound like one of the "world is flat" crew. Hmmm?<BR/><BR/>Since the GM truck plants are closed, the government can actually work to boost the relationships with other foreign manufacturers (GM, after all, IS foreign) who manufacture small cars in Ontario and Quebec, as well as indigenous manufacturers in BC, Ontario, and Quebec.<BR/><BR/>"Brain wave" number one: If anyone is serious about being "green", you have to slow consumption. Period. No-one with even half a brain can argue that.<BR/><BR/>I'm with you on the nuclear plants. Don't tell Alberta oil-lovers that, though. And to use Harper's favorite words, "screw" drilling for oil offshore. We need to divest ourselves from oil use. There is hydro, wind, and nuclear opportunities abound. We need to follow the EU's lead - not the US's.WesternGrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658358114507615351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-37422141453534618732008-06-23T13:43:00.000-07:002008-06-23T13:43:00.000-07:00Does Harper know about this secret plan???

I doubt it.<BR/>Silly old Goodale just wants to remind his constituents that he is still alive.<BR/>There is only one hair-brained plan . . . . and Dion created it.<BR/><BR/>Drill now, in the arctic, off the coasts and build nuclear plants . . . lots of cheap energy for Canucks!!!Oldschoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13090598978543658398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-16072793220161574722008-06-23T12:22:00.000-07:002008-06-23T12:22:00.000-07:00We haven't seen Mr. Harper's plan yet . . . but is...We haven't seen Mr. Harper's plan yet . . . but is seems strange that he would share it with Goodale.<BR/>But when Dion taxes everything that moves, business, industry etc. . . . . whom do you think will pay the bill?<BR/>I'll tell you who . . . the Cdn Consumer . . . no miniscule income tax cut will make up for the inflation that will follow this hair-brained Dion plan. Especially since things just keep getting colder here in Canada. Maybe the govt should be buying us new Chevy SUV's . . . that will help out GM in Ontario and get things a little warmer here on the west coast.Oldschoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13090598978543658398noreply@blogger.com
