Even Finance Minister Flaherty wants to know why Canadians aren't benefiting from the stronger Canadian dollar.
While Chuck not once addressed why our pesiticides, fertilizers, and seed prices continue to go up roughly 5-10% per year, and fertilizer 50-75% last year. At the same time the Canadian dollar went from US 62 cents to 94 cents.
Also, CAIS is still in place??? I thought the Reform party was to get rid of this useless program?
CHUCK was completely in the dark, basically one of Harper's duck-taped puppets, just like Minister Uncle (Ritz) Cracker will be.
Chaff/Incog/Franny/Wedino: What say you on this? Your post are funny, i cant stop laughing... LOL.
