Hey, here's the great thing about this video. Its dead! Stephane quit. He resigned. Rightfully so as well. The guy is a complete abomination of a politician. Total embarassment. Thank god that turd is gone! Now you scum - bag Liberals have a part-timer in charge?! Sheesh, the Liberals just cant seem to get it right. Yeah Ignatieff is a part-timer, a part time Canadian...living half his life in the US...at least Mr. Harper is %100 and then some...wow, Liberals are lost more than ever.
That is true, Ignatief is in now instead I think. And your right, I keep wondering why the liberals keep getting so many votes from people even though they do and did nothing for this country.
And instead of focusing their attention on the environment when the books were balanced, the Liberals started up Adscam, and until today they still haven't paid back even 1/10 of the money.
If they paid ANY effort into fixing the environment, they should have at least taken a few steps, but Dion, as minister, did NOTHING. And in 2006, he HIMSELF said Kyoto won't be met. So he was the one who gave up, and broke our world to the world.
Pretty hard to give credit to someone who did nothing.
This is another Liberal lie: we signed Kyoto because we wanted to try it out. Once you signed it, you have to honour it, plain and simple. In fact, Chretien said that himself at the Liberal Leadership convention, but it was HIM who failed at the deal.
Moreover, if you tried, you would have at lesat have a plan, but there was nothing for YEARS. In fact, greening the economy had been around since 1994, and even as we left deficit (something created by Trudeau), we didn't get anything.
I don't know where you get that bogus comparison but hey. You are welcome to your opinions.
I believe the combination of the coalition equals more than that of who voted for the conservatives. The funny thing is that Harper tried to do the same thing, joining what he now calls the seperatists. He proposed a coalition with the Bloc in 2004, They turned it down. Now all he does is make attacks on them about the Liberals joing them.
I agree. If they disagree just leave it that. But most on here resort to insults and ridiculas comparisons. Rarely do you ever see presentable facts to support their point of view. I always understand that others will have a different opinion. Shows the lack of maturity here.
Now look at what this fucktard is doing! He could'nt get elected so he gets in bed with the bloc. What a commy bastard, DO you idiots now see how much of a communist he is. It is amazing that he trys to get power with out a election, OH ya he has his little commy governer general who will give it to him.
How is it communism? The conservatives held 37.65 percent on the votes.... the three coalition parties add up to 54.42. Which number is larger? These are voters wants. 54.42 did not want conservative government. Sure they didn't vote with a coalition in mind but Harper is ignoring and worsening the potential of a recession!!
Do you even fucking get a clue to how it works?!?!?! you can make more in the long run, you have a tax reduction but pay more for produce co2, you pay a little to produce less, you earn more...
Canada is lagging behind on Carbon taxing and now that Dion might be gone, Canada stays on the bottom with the U.S. and China on this issue. Not electing Dion was a step backwards.
Dion is a fool.What difference does it make. If you believe in evolution humans are just a product a natural selection. In essence just an advanced biological form of a supper computer. Therefore why would you be so concerned about what happens to a world that is basicialy a joke. If you believe in god however then you should have no fear,and merely act as a steward of this world.
Looking past the embarrassing broken English, the last thing Canadians need is another tax. Why not take away from some of the ridiculous social programs he's promised money to (80 billion in promises already) and invest some money in new technology.
Taxes are going to rise regardless of the party. An economic slowdown will result in far less revenue going to the government. Either the government will go into deficit, or raise taxes. Dion obviously won't implement his programs right away.
He's on the right track for addressing those social concerns in his platform. A vote for Dion means that if we'll be able to afford the programs, we'll commit to them. A Conservative vote means we'll ignore them.
Leadership takes knowledge and a sense of realism. This man possess such qualities. Rejecting Conservative propaganda and looking past an awkward accent, one sees a highly competent individual who's willing to admit there's a problem because he knows there are ways of fixing it.
You damn ignorant fool. Your ignorance of economic and political history will destroy us all. If you see virtue in the Canadian Liberal party, much less Stephan Dion, the future looks grim for you.
Are you fucking serious? I am very much aware. Jean Chretien's government delivered surplus after surplus. They only announced massive spending after years of paying down the deficit. Your presumptuous nature will doom you.
Dion has said that his involvement as "an activist for the separatist cause" ended during a five-hour, rum-and-Coke fuelled discussion with a federalist household while he was going door-to-door for the PQ, but he did not openly commit to federalism until much later. At the time of the 1980 referendum, his sentiments were neutral. In his own words, the 'no' victory left him "neither moved nor outraged. To tell the truth, I felt no particular feeling."
Because the party was there... I wanted to challenge my dad... the way to become an adult sometimes is to say the contrary to your father. Each evening, I would try out a new argument I had heard on the separatist network and my father was demolishing it... My father very quietly and very respectfully was refuting me, without insulting me.[6
Dion was involved with the sovereignty movement, first as a teenager attending a Jesuit college in Quebec City,[6], and later as a university student campaigning for Parti Québécois candidate Louise Beaudoin in the 1976 election.[7] Mr. Dion described his experience as follows:
Although i am a Conservationalist the Environmental issue has been a self serving ploy. If anyone can read through the hypocrisy it is a dangerous method. The materials and resources used for waste management for example is destroying more forests and wildlife. This a a propaganda Big Money maker for all levels of Government whether, Federal,Provincial/State,Regional and Local.
all the young people like you who pollute , throw crap on the ground, drive like idiots and then complain about gas prices, and have babies out of wedlock are the cuases of pollution
5 years ago Stephen Harper gave a speech plagiarized from the Australian leader and the liberals would like us to remember that. Funny, because 5 years ago the liberals were embroiled in adscam which cost the taxpayers millions of dollars and in which no liberal MP ever admitted complicity. I wonder which event people will remember going to the polls?
You should be banned from YouTube for the soul purpose of being a complete and utter fool. ALL parties lie and ALL don't keep promises. The Liberals know the real issues and what to do about them. I like the Carbon Tax idea. I'm a 15 year old girl and I think it's time people paid the price on pollution. I didn't fuck up the world, people like you did and you deserve to pay.
you calling me an idiot is a riot because you are the 15 year old idiot who was brought up by idiot parents who don't know what individual responsibility is. The liberals have had 13 years to right the wrongs and did they do ANYTHING to fix it?! No! YOU DON'T REMEMBER BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO YOUNG and you're the one calling me an idiot. Lol.. I bike 40 miles a day to get to work, I run a green house to heat my home, I have all florescent lights so before you say i fuck up the world, think about
First off... The average speed of a road bike tends to be 18-22 mph. This means that you allegedly spend about four hours of every work day biking to work and back. If you spend eight hours at work and eight hours sleeping, with an extra hour tacked on for a given mean (or two- gotta keep up your strength for that bike ride)... Then you have three hours to spend youtubing and maintaining a social life on weekdays.
Wrong, because there is a bike route all the way there which since I don't have to fight the traffic actually takes less time than driving. So in actuality, I spend 2 hours a day biking to and from work.
Secondly... "Green House"? So either your power company assures you that they get their power from green sources, which you use to heat your house, OR you can afford to run wind turbines, OR you are being literal and grow a special heat-generating plant that you actually keep in a greenhouse you run. I'm not sure I completely understand what you're saying here, but you're either gullible, rich enough to afford a better commute, or really selfish keeping this miracle plant to yourself.
A greenhouse. Not green house. Which grows food. I use the heat that the sun generates in the greenhouse to heat my house. It cost a total of 200 dollars so every idiot can do this. Its not brain surgery. And no, if everyone is content to pollute as much as they do, why should I help them?
Of course, I seriously doubt your first two claims have ANY substance to them. In addition, point of fact, I DO remember those 13 years, and for the first six of them, quite frankly, nobody was that concerned by climate change. Some still argue that our carbon emissions are not the culprit. In light of that, no, neither Jean Chretien nor Paul Martin were perfect, but they righted other wrongs of the time. Neither could be considered the "worst" Prime Ministers that we have had.
You can doubt all you want. Its your opinion even though its wrong. And back then you right, no one did care about climate change. But that was 15 years ago and the people who argue thta climate change is a myth are idiots.
But either way... Although Stephane Dion has been a part of the Liberal Party during those years, yes... Some point out that he was Environment Minister for two years (although that means nothing... The conservatives prove that two years change little in that department- Rona Ambrose? Seriously??)
I really and truly think that his government will not be the same as theirs- his caucus is a lot stronger than Harper's, IMO (don't get me wrong, I'm not into Harper-bashing).
Fine, vote for the lieberals but I guarantee I will be saying "I told you so" for all the gullible people who still think the liberals is the party for canada.
The more I read of your stuff, the more convinced I am that you didn't actually read or understand the points I was trying to make. I did not alledge that I was going to vote Liberal- I think that they did elect the wrong preson at the leadership conference- and I do not hate the Conservatives.
You also seem to be falling back on stock arguments, so I'm just going to drop the issue. "I blame your parents" for raising you without integrity.
Why should I watch the french debates for a party I would NEVER vote for? Im not being discriminatory, Im being objective. I dont vote for the liberals so how am I lying? I blame your parents for deluding you into thinking that you don't have any individual responsibility.
Truthfully, I didn't watch any of it because I don't need to. I knew who I was voting for before the debate started and nothing the other candidates say could've swayed me in any other direction.
I do not want someone who can't even grasp the English language, the founding state of this country, representing me or my community in anyway at all. Stephane, take a hike.
Yep. Exactly. Whenever he is asked a question about anything to do with his plan, all he does is slam Mr. Harper. Great answer you effing dolt Stephane, now how about something about your platform. Sheesh.
Dude, not so good?? Its sucks. Its terrible. A total atrocity and an embarassment. English is this countries founding colonial language. Our FIRST language. Our primary business language, and spoken by the majority of the population as their FIRST language. I don't want anymore frenchmen representing my English colony anymore.
Excuse, french is our fucking second language. It's not like he's speaking in a Russian accent. You're a hypocrite. Don't like french accents, move the hell out of Canada. We don't need idiots like you ruining our country.
Yup exactly. A frenchman calling Canada his country is like a frog that can fly. You may live here, but by no means is Canada a country of, and from, the french. You may call Canada your home because you born here or are a citizen, but lets be very crystal clear frenchie, Canada is primarily NATIVE land, none of which spoke french, ever, and secondly an English founded and created colony. The french were beat up into Quebec where they were "allowed" to stay, be thankful.
Meaning what? Dion is NOT canadian. NDP will NEVER win, and neither will the Green party. Obama will be the next president and he is not another Bush, unlike Palin and Mccain.
I think the Liberals are simply trying to'put a price' on pollution. We're all to blame for the shape the world is in right now. Now, as far as Stephane Dion goes, I may not like him nor any of the candidates, but I would vote for the person I simply disliked over the person I hate Stephen Harper.
Oh no! I didn't mean the way it sounded. I think Mr. Dion is a wonderful man. I just don't think he can get his point across. He needs to make people more aware of how stupid and screwed up Harper is, because I know of so many people saying that Harper's not going to fool them again and Dion needs to bring that up.
Dion hasn't kept any of his promises. Harper on the other hand has kept a few. If you want a government that actually does something, unlike the liberals, then vote conservative.
What have the liberals done for you, to make you vote for them?
I'm not afraid. Le Bloc Quebecois is an obstactle for him, then Vote Swapping. Canadians are doing everything in their power to stop Harper, and I'm confident.
Argue all you want...Stephanie won't win...face the reality. Majority or Minority, for Harper, it's still a win, and he's still PM....that's the reality.
How can you hate Steven Harper. He may be a stiff piece of cardboard, but he's doing good for Canada and if you can't see that and are going to vote liberal anyway, then you obviously don't give a rat's ass about this country.
Damn you're an idiot. Stephen Harper has done nothing for this country but make it worse, and his plans if he gets a majority will bring this country down. He wants to cut money to arts and he wants people to have a prescription for vitamins! Where does that make sense to you? Our hospitals are already crowded, and he wants to crowd our clinics too!
And when exactly has the Liberals made this country better? Raising taxes, job loss, deficient economy, and those are the good points that the liberals have done to Canada. Arts is only for the rich anyway.
And if you took better care of yourself you wouldn't need a hospital at all. He actually gave more money to healthcare where Dion has not. You probably live in Toronto anyway, where they ONLY vote liberal because its the best they know.
where does it say that the Liberals will raise taxes?
The Green Shift is revenue neutral. Taxing pollution instead of earnings and investment...and Mr Dion has explicitly said that he will not raise the GST (despite the idiotic move to cut it by the PM as a pure political move)...
I take pride in my on-going education thank you very much ;) ...uneducated would not be a way to describe me...A Liberal yes, uneducated-certainly not...
And regarding Liberals, let's hear what your provincial cousins have to say:
New Brunswick, led by a Liberal premier, is opposed to the tax since it'll kill 100 000 jobs. Your response was too bad so sad, and and the workers should have upgraded when they had the chance.
Ontario's Liberal finance minister today said: "One of the things that...would be a mistake right now is massive shifts in tax burden at a time when there's uncertainty."
Because if you have any idea of what the Liberal platform is, it is taxing people of how much pollution they cause. AKA raising taxes.
And when has the liberal party EVER kept a promise. Oh, that's right, NEVER. They don't even know what a promise is. And I guess you've never heard of individual responsibility.
The Liberals, NDP, Greens and Bloc ALL have a party plank that stating that they will ban all handguns and semi-automatic Rifles and Shotguns. If you were a recreational shooter or a (God-forbid) hunter, youd be advocating the confiscation of your property by voting for any of the left-wing parties!
For me i think the the stupiest of you guys are those who judge him about his french accent or appearence, this guy is an intellectual, he have good idea he look frank, when he say that he want the good for canada. but it is his fuckin party that i didnt like the ideology of center, and npd looks like kids having nothing in the chest, but i say that cuz i didn't really know good the deputies of NPD
conservative or liberal we must all agree this will be the toughest decision the voters will make for a long time also what about ndp lets give them a shot i know their right wing, but the librals arn't looking good and the conservatives seem very stupid
i am librel and although i believe in his ethics it is unwise to propose a sudden raise in taxes and a carbon tax. the voters are not happy,b ut dion is to stupid to do anything. I want a librel government but not a dion government.
Now that's an ironic statement, given that all the rebuttals you offered to my arguments have been nothing more than Liberal propaganda. You regurgitate everythign from the Dion platform, but offered no critical analysis of any sort. Pretty irresponsible, don't you think?
And you got the guts to challenge me to a policy and election promise debate, but you haven't been heard of since. Whatever happened to that determined attitude you had in policy analysis earlier?
What has happened is very tight academic schedule and my mother who just had reconstructive knee surgery...the reason I threw back campaign rhetoric is it is typically effective for people to get the point quickly and to rethink their views...i would still like to have a policy debate with you but unfortunately i simply dont have the time...I havent touched youtube unless someone says something way off base that i cant simply leave alone (ie "uneducated Liberal loving baboon")...
...however I hope to still have that debate before the election...it would likely be a weekend...I am more than willing but I have priorities (I am a Liberal who thinks its easy to make priorities ;)...)
And that attitude of throwing campaign rhetoric will hurt you. I'm not like most people who buy into stuff whatever party threw. I look at all facts and opinions from others before judging. My earlier comment on Ontario and New Brunswick are examples of this.
And regarding rethinking views, I think this applies to you more than to me, since you still haven't proven you're capable of using logic and transcending parties. Might I suggest more researching and less assuming about my personality?
It's too late to debate now, since the Liberals were thrashed, Dion's on his way out, and the new candidates are staying away from GS.
The fact that all you can do is throw campaign rhetoric means you have no logic or reason. And you gladly embracing and recruiting partisan creeps like Gillhollee without knowing them ("I don't really know him so I couldn't say anything") means you value partisanship over debate integrity.
Truly hypocritical that you would want a healthy debate with me.
Dion is already dead in Quebec, and his Green Shit Plan (I thought of that name first) is about to sink him across the board.
The Anglophobic Bloc will be forced to give a raison d'etre after Harper takes 10-15 seats away from them, giving the Cons. at least a 20 seat majority.
The Greens and Deeps will make small but insignificant gains in parts of the Maritimes, Toronto, and (of course)the Left Coast, at the expense of the Grits' left wing.
This ineffectual little boob has got to be kidding with this "Green Shift" horseshit! It's nothing more than an old fashion shell game designed to prey on guilt ridden maroons who buy into the total crock that is global warming
Harper today announced his tough on crime agenda to include environmental crimes as well, which includes environmental stewardship and conservation, increasing regulation and inspection of industries, hiring more environmental prosecutors, and increasing penalties for said crimes ($6 million fine for companies, $1 million for individuals).
And where was Dion when he could have done something like this as enviro minister? Now he thinks his Green Shift is all that? Pathetic!
Fuck yes. Go Liberals, their platform looks pritty solid. I think the only problem is his french accent but i can guarantee that Stephen Harper probually sounds just as bad to the french. I voted for the conservative party last election but iam definatly leaning to the liberals now. Iam gona see him give a speech at the University of British Columbia and if he can sell his parties mandate to me. He has got my vote.
The environment is the least of our worries! Get the facts...do the math...the emissions that the ordinary Canadian can do anything about is only 0.19% of the total worlds output! That's right...zero point one nine percent! The Green Shaft is exactly that!
Is there any Canadian out there that is just plain STUPID ENOUGH to actually vote for this Dion loser in the next election and also think that by giving the Lieberals more money will help fix the environment????
Apparently there is, because i have a strange feeling that the next government will be run by the Lieberals.......AGAIN!!...WHICH MEANS MORE TAXES, MORE SCANDALS, AND MORE LIES!!! and it also means less money in our own pockets to support ourselves and our families...
Liberals are starving people Liberals have carbon tax and cap and trade tax and will increase the GST. Liberals will make you lose your jobs Liberals will destroy your family Liberals want your money for their friends. Liberals will steal again. Liberals dont care about you Liberals have off shore bank accounts that are drying up Liberals need your money. Liberals will make a new sponsorship scandal called a carbon tax Liberals will try to fool you again because they know you are fools.
doomword, thats because a lot of people dont think goblal warming exists. and enough with the low taxes bullshit, i am a student and it doesnt work for my benefit, so im not voting conservative, period. its just another scheme for big bussiness to get richer. fuck that.
You will never get rich working for yourself either, and I beg to differ. I work for a major corporation, and I make 500 dollars an hour so before you go off spouting crap about corporations, I suggest you go work for one and find out the truth.
I agree! I can vote for a lying party that said they recognized a problem and did not do anything about it or a party that has shown real leadership in fighting pollution. If you're an environmentalist like me you'll vote for Stephen Harper! (Such an easy choice.)
lol and first of all the mission if afghanistan, we just went in as peacekeepers as first, it wasnt until harper that we actually started fighting over there, I mean i still suport the mission as it was on the request of the afghan government to fight to taliban and it is a NATO mission authorized by the UN .
lol cuz im sure the same people who fuck up in the past are the same as today. and i wonder what the hell is harper even doing regarding the enviroment, oh yeah according to him the artic isnt melting. lol tax on diesel my ass, how on earth is that gonna help anybody.
You're right...Dion's tax trick is a real game. Vote for the true environmentalist in this campaign, Stephen Harper. I care too much about the environment to do otherwise.
Vote for Harper because you're a Christian fundamentalist, Darwinian capitalist or homophobe, but don't lie and say it's because you care about the environment.
Or vote for Harper because you don't want the corruption boys back in or the wide eyed, wild socialists dancing around the maypole of the global warming myth.
What does the Green Shaft have to do with pollution? It doesn't even have greenhouse gas reduction targets, never mind any mention of reducing pollution.
if you haven't noticed dion wants to bring in anouther tax. once they are brought in they are not reverseable, and once implemented can and will be abused by polititians. say no to dion and his carbon tax PERIOD
im surprised at how cynical the conservative anti liberal bastards who written comments here are. get your heads out of your asses and open your mind.
I agree with you...it is disgusting that the lie-berals started this war and the Conservatives have to clean it up!! Even Chreiten said so in his book.
Time to get the lie-beral corruption boys as far for gov't as possible!
Who could disagree? Like you, I am still wondering...
if you havent noticed, harper has lied about when he would be bringing our troops home, delaying that date for several years. if you think they are trying to ''clean up'', youre wrong. if you are naive enough to believe that politicians like stephen harper and others are not crooks, you are missing the larger issues in this election.
Sorry but Harper never lied about bringing the troops home. The first time he promised to bring the troops home was this spring when he struck a compromise with Dion who originally demanded the mission end in 2009, then agreed with Harper on a 2011 withdrawal date.
For some reason the media went nuts when Harper repeated this commitment during the election, but its not new, and its not a lie. The change was big news in February, and since then 2011 has been the end date.
If you haven't noticed, Harper has a minority in the house; therefore, lie-berals supported these dates. If you are naive enough to believe the "corruption boys" (the lie-beral party) have cleaned up their act, you are wrong. Just check out Volpe's little dirt during the leadership contest and how virtually none of the other candidates said anything. My god, when will lie-berals think of Canada first, their party second?
He also mentioned eliminating poverty in Canada. The liberals already made that promise to eliminate poverty in 10 years. They were in power for 13 years and never did a thing.
Dion is just full of buzz words that sound nice to the ears. He's really full of hot air.
Talents and skills .. what a joke.
When the polluters pay, they will increase the price of their good and services to pass it down to the consumer plus GST. So any tax cuts will not be helpful on income tax.
Shifting taxes from one place to another is basically stealing more from people who make more than 45K a year and move it to another sector to create "greener things". During the shift of the taxes, we expect some elite Liberal friends to STEAL some of it in administrative charges.
The rest will go to probably create some more inefficient and useless government jobs in which the workers become unionized and don't do a thing to help the environment. The middle class is screwed with this guy.
This clown Dion doesn't know what he is talking about. The Canadian dollar did not go up if you compare it to the Euro and other currencies. It is the same. The US dollar is what dropped. Canadians are not productive enough for the dollar to go up.
This guy is suppose to be a leader? Looks like a white collar, beancounting wimp. Would you want this guy as the captain of any team you are on? I don't think so. Plus I have no clue what he is saying.
Fudge what numbers? His plan is not a study/report it is policythe only numbers that can be fudged is the revenue collected from the carbon tax-which would be traced from the numbers collected as total emissionsand there is no reason to manipulate those numbers&I did not say that Brad Wall fudged numbers.
Obviously I have a partisan-bias,I dont deny that.We all have a biasWhen anyone releases a report/study you must examine any agenda/bias they may have in order keep the process accountable.
It's not that liberals are ignorant....they just know so much that isn't so.

Looking past the embarrassing broken English, the last thing Canadians need is another tax. Why not take away from some of the ridiculous social programs he's promised money to (80 billion in promises already) and invest some money in new technology.
averagejoe435 3 years ago
Taxes are going to rise regardless of the party. An economic slowdown will result in far less revenue going to the government. Either the government will go into deficit, or raise taxes. Dion obviously won't implement his programs right away.
He's on the right track for addressing those social concerns in his platform. A vote for Dion means that if we'll be able to afford the programs, we'll commit to them. A Conservative vote means we'll ignore them.

Dion has said that his involvement as "an activist for the separatist cause" ended during a five-hour, rum-and-Coke fuelled discussion with a federalist household while he was going door-to-door for the PQ, but he did not openly commit to federalism until much later. At the time of the 1980 referendum, his sentiments were neutral. In his own words, the 'no' victory left him "neither moved nor outraged. To tell the truth, I felt no particular feeling."

you calling me an idiot is a riot because you are the 15 year old idiot who was brought up by idiot parents who don't know what individual responsibility is. The liberals have had 13 years to right the wrongs and did they do ANYTHING to fix it?! No! YOU DON'T REMEMBER BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO YOUNG and you're the one calling me an idiot. Lol.. I bike 40 miles a day to get to work, I run a green house to heat my home, I have all florescent lights so before you say i fuck up the world, think about
bloodrageX5 3 years ago
First off... The average speed of a road bike tends to be 18-22 mph. This means that you allegedly spend about four hours of every work day biking to work and back. If you spend eight hours at work and eight hours sleeping, with an extra hour tacked on for a given mean (or two- gotta keep up your strength for that bike ride)... Then you have three hours to spend youtubing and maintaining a social life on weekdays.
Destroid2x 3 years ago
Wrong, because there is a bike route all the way there which since I don't have to fight the traffic actually takes less time than driving. So in actuality, I spend 2 hours a day biking to and from work.

Secondly... "Green House"? So either your power company assures you that they get their power from green sources, which you use to heat your house, OR you can afford to run wind turbines, OR you are being literal and grow a special heat-generating plant that you actually keep in a greenhouse you run. I'm not sure I completely understand what you're saying here, but you're either gullible, rich enough to afford a better commute, or really selfish keeping this miracle plant to yourself.
Destroid2x 3 years ago
A greenhouse. Not green house. Which grows food. I use the heat that the sun generates in the greenhouse to heat my house. It cost a total of 200 dollars so every idiot can do this. Its not brain surgery. And no, if everyone is content to pollute as much as they do, why should I help them?
bloodrageX5 3 years ago
Of course, I seriously doubt your first two claims have ANY substance to them. In addition, point of fact, I DO remember those 13 years, and for the first six of them, quite frankly, nobody was that concerned by climate change. Some still argue that our carbon emissions are not the culprit. In light of that, no, neither Jean Chretien nor Paul Martin were perfect, but they righted other wrongs of the time. Neither could be considered the "worst" Prime Ministers that we have had.

But either way... Although Stephane Dion has been a part of the Liberal Party during those years, yes... Some point out that he was Environment Minister for two years (although that means nothing... The conservatives prove that two years change little in that department- Rona Ambrose? Seriously??)

Sorry but Harper never lied about bringing the troops home. The first time he promised to bring the troops home was this spring when he struck a compromise with Dion who originally demanded the mission end in 2009, then agreed with Harper on a 2011 withdrawal date.
For some reason the media went nuts when Harper repeated this commitment during the election, but its not new, and its not a lie. The change was big news in February, and since then 2011 has been the end date.

Dion is just full of buzz words that sound nice to the ears. He's really full of hot air.
Talents and skills .. what a joke.
When the polluters pay, they will increase the price of their good and services to pass it down to the consumer plus GST. So any tax cuts will not be helpful on income tax.

Shifting taxes from one place to another is basically stealing more from people who make more than 45K a year and move it to another sector to create "greener things". During the shift of the taxes, we expect some elite Liberal friends to STEAL some of it in administrative charges.
The rest will go to probably create some more inefficient and useless government jobs in which the workers become unionized and don't do a thing to help the environment. The middle class is screwed with this guy.

This clown Dion doesn't know what he is talking about. The Canadian dollar did not go up if you compare it to the Euro and other currencies. It is the same. The US dollar is what dropped. Canadians are not productive enough for the dollar to go up.

This guy is suppose to be a leader? Looks like a white collar, beancounting wimp. Would you want this guy as the captain of any team you are on? I don't think so. Plus I have no clue what he is saying.

Fudge what numbers? His plan is not a study/report it is policythe only numbers that can be fudged is the revenue collected from the carbon tax-which would be traced from the numbers collected as total emissionsand there is no reason to manipulate those numbers&I did not say that Brad Wall fudged numbers.
Obviously I have a partisan-bias,I dont deny that.We all have a biasWhen anyone releases a report/study you must examine any agenda/bias they may have in order keep the process accountable.
