I kinda think the coalition thing may not have as much effect as last time.

Because Harper has been harrassing the Bloc for months to form coalition. the reason he wanted the bloc was to a play on getting into Quebec by using the bloc, but they weren't that stupid. Harper would be lieing just as much when he said he didn't want a coalition.

The entire minority since day one needed some coalition or another to function and pass bills so I think Canadians want to see individuals we elect be able to work together at least get something done.

They better start explaining why they won't tell the true cost of the fighter jets, and start to protray that our elected mps are not just bench warmers.

Not a great situation but there certainly are opportunities to fill the void. Do you know what kind of radioactive material is leaking. I was wondering what its half life is.

[per]

I only skimmed along because work is ready for me. Lets hope it is Radioactive Iodine 131 with a half life of 8 days. It could be Cesium 137 with a half life of 30 years and it best not be uranium, 146 4 billion years, 143 7 billion years and most likely 234 245,000 years.

I would hazard a guess it is the most transportable Iodine 131.

Half life is the amount of time it takes to loose half of its energy. So in 8 days Iodine 131 is half as strong and in another 8 days it is at 1/4 etc. Yes I know you are aware of that fs,I just thought someone might like to know.

Good scrutiny, Sask. Iggy will lie. Sneakier though. He said no FORMAL deal. He's already made an INFORMAL deal with the Bloc, I'll bet. Pars

[riders2010]

Yeah just like the HARPER gov has no back room deal to fund all those Quebec arenas after if they get elected. We'll need to save the emotional denial made last week and play it back but it would be too late, when the truth comes out about that bull too.

[HFL]

Yes, Iggy is lieing

Minority government would work if consevatives give Harper the boot. Harper is not a minority government type of leader.

It is my understanding that reactor 3 was fueled with MOX with contains plutonium plus uranium. Plutonium has a half life of 24000 years. Reactor 3 is the one that is suspected of being breached, either in the containment vessel or the pipes and valves connected to the vessel. The plutonium will get diluted in the ocean but still it is a very serious situation which I believe will impact not on Japans consumption of fish but world consumption.

According to the EPA:

http://www.epa.gov/rpdweb00/radionuclides/plutonium.html

"External exposure to plutonium poses very little health risk, since plutonium isotopes emit alpha radiation, and almost no beta or gamma radiation. In contrast, internal exposure to plutonium is an extremely serious health hazard. It generally stays in the body for decades, exposing organs and tissues to radiation, and increasing the risk of cancer. Plutonium is also a toxic metal, and may cause damage to the kidneys."

Minority governments could work if the losers would actually try and do what is best for their constituents and their country instead of just trying to dig dirt and get back to power.

Name us one, just one thing that the Liberals have suggested to the sitting government that has truly helped this country in the last 5 years?

If I elect someone to sit in Ottawa I expect them to do what is best for me, my province and the country. If they are in opposition I still expect the same.

Harper talked publicly about how long the Liberal's war committment in Middle East would extend. He consulted Parliament. He spells things out.

He talked about the arenas. In public.You know about the discussions and you are talking about them! Iggy would reveal his deals AFTER the election.

harper said he would not form a coalition with the Bloc. He didn't.

Iggy did. Iggy signed on the bottom line a short time after he lost the election. He'll do it again. He wants the office, not the service.

Harper is a a decent guy. I don't agree with everything he does, but basically he won't sell Canada down the river to Libya.

Iggy would sell Canada to Bangladeish or Yemen if they could round up some votes for him. That's how I view him.

If you were to do a personal farm deal with Iggy or with Harper, there is no doubt in my mind who I would want to sign on the bottom line with. Ask yourself who you would want for a partner. Pars

Harper needs a majority to show what he will do FOR this country instead of always negotiating with a bunch of hacks.
