Mmm... and yet he got re-elected. Why Canada?  WHY?

[BandCalled9]

the conservatives are very spooky

[InexplicableHat]

Mercifully, Harper didn't get a chance to deregulate our banks before the financial crisis (like his caucus had been discussing soon before it happened). Then Canada would really have been fucked.

Not that we aren't as it is, now that he has a majority...

It's not bull, it is true, that was then and of course they are stricter now...duuhhh.

k... this is complete and utter bullshit, ive worked on the production line on about 350 kg of meat an hour, and canadian food inspection is there everyday and ya they can't catch all of it it but they have gotten more strict over the years but whatever, I don't know where this is coming from
