Back in the day I used to growl at the Liberals when bullying and government interference came to light. Now it might be my 'oldtimers' kicking in, but as much as I was peeved I don't ever remember Chretien or Trudeau reaching the levels that Harper now employs. And though I was blissfully ignorant of it at the time, Mulroney also stifled descent; again nowhere near the levels of the Harper government.<br /><br />Short of making opponents 'dissappear', I can't how much worse it can get after this. We are certainly a banana republic once that occurs. So with careers and reputations being 'disappeared', and official state media being launched with Kory-TeeVee, Canada has become some other shade of yellow at the present time.<br /><br />Day-e-oooo!?Tof KWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756310841374198056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-39687406988440692142010-08-18T19:22:48.019-04:002010-08-18T19:22:48.019-04:00Sorry, people, I just couldn't help myself.Sorry, people, I just couldn't help myself.jkghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11896248753234065744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-20030985457754973052010-08-18T19:21:22.350-04:002010-08-18T19:21:22.350-04:00Maybe we finally are becoming a banana republic wi...<i>Maybe we finally are becoming a banana republic with snowploughs afterall? </i><br /><br />I must say, KW, that image in my head has me chuckling (even if it is a depressing thought).

I can assure you she dumps pixelated diarrhea all over the web regardless of my posted thoughts on these blog-forums.<br /><br />Also, I don't think Steve tolerates CS's posts. He has the same mentality as I do that crazy people shouldn't be allowed on the internet; let alone being given the opportunity to post messages.Tof KWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756310841374198056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-51877612486917070952010-08-18T10:48:19.260-04:002010-08-18T10:48:19.260-04:00T that's just encouraging CanadianSense to tal...T that's just encouraging CanadianSense to talk about something completely unrelated.<br /><br />Get ready for the pointless CS questions!Gene Rayburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12438068218145410142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20358187.post-55606219877178158282010-08-18T10:43:08.385-04:002010-08-18T10:43:08.385-04:00KW
