    20 good reasons our children can be proud Canadians TODAY!

    No the CWB should not cost PM Harper the election:

    1)There have been good agreements and nation building globally.

    2)Softwood Lumber with US was settled.

    3)Trade agreements with many far east counties that build better links to global markets.

    4)Many would be surprised that after 10 years... Supply managed Agriculture is still functional and prospering to the extent it can today with the huge overhead quotas cost.

    5)We have integrated transport systems, that transfer Billions in trade each month... in a reasonable manner without unnecessarily restrictive border controls.

    6)Our Airlines are not bankrupt... making a reasonable profit at reasonable cost to the travelling public.

    7)Our telecommunications/internet/cell are costing much less for many times the services in real and adjusted dollars than 10 years ago.

    8)Our postal services have reasonable service and fast options for those willing to pay extra.

    9)Our vehicle standards have been maintained to high North American standards... less pollution than EU vehicles... low sulphur diesel, Ethanol blended Gasoline... all that result in better air quality and less fuel consumption.

    10)Lowest interest rates in over 50 years... allowing for capital investment in new and better Agriculture, Transportation, Forestry, Oil and Gas, Construction methods... an efficient low cost economy.

    11)Cheapest food costs for Canadians... relative to earned wages... IN HISTORY.

    12)Banking sector/credit card vendors required to roll back high charges and be transparent in contracts.

    13)Longest life expectancy of any time in history.

    14) More people eating more food, than ever before...

    15) less soil and water erosion now than 100 years ago... producing 50 times as much food.

    16) 1.5 percent of population produces many times more than 75 percent of our population did 100 years ago.

    17) folks complain there is too much water in western Canada to farm... where 10 years ago... we were a dust bowl!

    18) we have expanded and proved many more 'non-renewable fossil fuels' than 10 years ago.

    19) Fisheries are recovering, forests being replanted, new national parks being established.

    20) our armed forces are better equipped, trained, and ready to help when the call comes in/from the international community/UN.

    just about all of those are false or cannot be attributed to the current government and some cannot be attributed to any government. I ll be more specific when I have time.

      Riders,

      If CNCP had NOT put a $423,000 Writ on every piece of farm land I own; When I am not suppose to pay them one red cent:

      And folks like you told me to do this: I would not be on Day 48 of this Hunger Strike!

      It is clearly the Alberta Courts that are unjust... this is totally aside/outside our Canadian Justice system.

      10 Yrs ago v now: Canadian Justice rights and privileges have been enhanced for victims of violence and self defence of our homes.

        Zero percent interest rates are great?Why didn't we just do that all along?

        Oh ya it flushes the economy into the toilet making the other 19 reasons mute.

          Boy would you be singing from a different hymn book if you'd won the case. Where has anyone asked you to take on the RRs single handedly? Most only heard anything about this when you started crying and moaning about the writ. I suspect there needed to be an element of sealed lips during the process but it was YOUR CHOICE to procede. Take your medicine Jackson, be a big boy, you challenged them and lost. The writ isn't even the cost of a half section of land.

          Oh yeah, and to stay on topic. Harper's government's judgement day is this fall, until then everyone can speculate and campaign all they want. When the votes are cast and counted we'll know. But I am sure the ag issues are so low on the public radar they won't even be picked up. Besides, you have to wonder what the ratio of actual Producers to the leaches(those who rely on primary production and gained from recent ag policy changes)is. Remember, it may not be the Primary Producers who are supporting the status quo but the rest of the Industry who is. And by my assumption far out weighs us....

              Low interest rates...tell me about it. My earnings from invested money are less than the inflation rate. All the seniors that I know are being fleeced by a system that they can't control but newly married couples can buy a home at such low rates of interest that it is ridiculous.
              Harper and his policies are extremely harmful and he must go, there is no other way...period...full STOP.

              Tom...you are BRAINWASHED and pretty soon if you keep on your so-called hunger strike you'll be BRAIN-DAMAGED.

                Cheers!

                  BTW tom, you've passed the survival rule of 4.

                  4 minutes without oxygen
                  4 days without water
                  40 days without food....

                  you're dead.

                  Yet, you're not. i think.

                    Why this won't cost Harper the election, because there are more people that don't want another Trudeau

                      Ive heard it all now. Willy blaming a pm for low interest rates. And here I thought they followed the Fed etc.
                      And Damn those wage earning spending building young people. How do you get any peace?
                      And Blue chip dividend stocks with options for covered writing? Of course Heresy! How does the world work without a stock board/pool?
                      I'm sure your not the landlord getting 3-5% value / acre for rent. Every year income totalling what you paid for it in 71.
                      How hard it must be telling everyone to contribute their Fair share while you want Your fair Share. Means different things with a different emphasis doesnt it?
                      Congratulations you have passed the Old Socialist test. You can now go to town on purple gas!

                          What I wonder about is that zero rate policy must have pulled forward an awfull lot of demand from the future but how much?how come we didnt get bigger GDP prints with all the debt injected?after so many years with the pedal to metal how are we not going to start seeing negative growth?

                            tom to Harper

                            sunshine, lolly pops and rainbows everywhere is what i feel when your our leader.

                            No.1 good agreements and nation building
                            (WTF is that?)
                            are you talking about global agreements in building (world corporate control).

                            no.2 softwood
                            .i do not know enough of the specifics to comment.( i am sure there is a story there too)

                            no. 3 trade agreements with the east

                            . i would hope any govt. would work for trade agreements.

                            no.4 marketing boards

                            we all know the story on that one.
                            the only reason the marketing boards still exist is for electoral reasons.

                            and when the time is right, when ever the PCs are sure to lose the next election. the plug will be pulled and the industry will be handed over to the corporations. simple as that.

                            no.5 integrated transport systems

                            coming from you Tom that has to be some good Harper kool-aid your drinking.

                            no. 6 airlines

                            not worth a comment

                            no. 7 telecommunications cost less

                            you fail to mention , they are probably still the most expensive in the world.

                            no. 8 postal changes
                            i can't deliver wheat in a year ,but i can mail a letter.
                            gee whiz good job.

                            no 9. vehicle standards .

                            meaningless
                            and priceless coming from you esp.

                            are you the new ritz, spewing out
                            whatever the con. election machine tells you.
                            ( we can tell this issue was personal and near and dear to your heart)

                            no. 10 lowest interest rates.

                            that is like taking credit for the price of oil or wheat.
                            except
                            ( well they can take credit for horrible wheat and canola basis)

                            no. 11 cheapest food.
                            ya farmers are pretty good . what does it have to do with the Con.s

                            ( food is cheap Tom, maybe you and the Con. PR guy that made this crap up
                            could eat something and your delusions would go away)

                            No.12 credit and bank cards
                            yes they put a limit on the robbery.
                            (stole that from the ndp)
                            buy votes here , pay the banks somewhere else.

                            no.13 life expectancy

                            yes contrary to to what con.s believe there is this thing called scientific research and advancement .
                            it actually works and should not be muzzled

                            14 more people eating more food.

                            really , your scraping bottom now.

                            15. less soil and water erosion.
                            thank god for Harper on that one.
                            (pfra closure , i can tell it's a priority for him)

                            16-20 another 4 things that are so far off topic , have nothing to do with Harper. but these are great things.

                            and prove why Harper should be reelected .

                            god when can i vote

                              Yes, it's great to help new families with reasonable interest rates so they can live in comfortable homes, but to have almost zero interest rates and create super hyper inflation in housing and farmland is assinine. Did you see what happened in US in 2008? The world got a wake-up call and nobody heard. Interest rates and money supply are fiscal tools countries use to put a lid on runaway prices for real estate. IMO, this is a very dangerous game and it may come to bite us.
