Welcome back. To the sponsorship years.

You're a moron cotton, and I say that with no respect whatsoever. And I also say that as a card-carrying right wing redneck

[agstar77]

Let us judge by deeds and action not by parentage or appearance. Harper was judged and Trudeau will be too.

[Flatlander]

I thought the first I heard of the 25,000 refugees was we would get them by Christ mas. Did I not here that? Was I mistaken or was that some reporter being coy? Of coarse now the PC police only say year end thus buying not only an extra week but also now it's PC.

[riders2010]

Boarder no offence taken you re entitled to your opinion as am I.

However I can tell you there was no media present the many times I and many neighbours in our area tried to speak to the former ag minister
Over issues that our area had concerns about
Only to be ignored, ridiculed, practically laughed at and flat out lied to.

Is it a lie that conservatives themselves believe Harper lied about the Duffy scandal?

Is it a lie that many conservative mps now are coming forward to say they were muzzled?

Is it a lie what we re seeing on the tv screen that thousands are there applauding the change in attitude, of which is it not true that all the conservative leader want to be are saying they have to do as well?

And as far as the 25,000 immigrants I hope he does fail as I don't care if it's before Christmas or in ten years I don't think we should be allowing those people in at all. We should be creating a safe zone for them somewhere in the Middle East and as soon as the Isis issue is done they go back to their country. They have opportunity if hey want then to Create a canada like system there if they want to. But I bet they wouldn't.
At the very least If they are let in they have to agree to leave their beliefs at the door and embrace what our beliefs and way of life is. One slight deviation from that and your booted out.

[cottonpicken]

Your right i apologize he may be the best man ever for the job and i sort of respect their believes as much as any i was caught up in the moment and emotions if the dark side. Maybe it's the best cabinet ever time will tell.

As fAr as the im tougher then you I'm a card carring red neck well maybe but I doubt it. I'm as big and mean as they come and it's taken a lot to keep mr Hyde locked up. Put a little to much fear into the locals on my last one guy had it coming everyone wanted me to do it even the bouncers gave the green light caught a weak succer punch the only one he got still cant feel one side of my face god damn nerve damage took three to pull me off at the end. Next day I was trying to figure if that was sixtieth or seventieth street fight I had been in. Then i remeber hurting Lee on here and Charlie p once in A while he still hasn't forgiven me. So I've been trying quite a while not to hurt,mostly emotionally because I think your almost always in the wrong when you hurt someone in some way shape or fashion. Leading us to the current government.

Will they hurt us under th disguise of socialism or fascism?i wouldn't pretend to know

[Oliver88]

We're in trouble if there is now a minister dedicated to CLIMATE CHANGE.

The liberal media party of the CBC, Craig Olver, etc are sure having a love-in with their drama teacher.

[farmaholic]

Craig Oliver said something very unprofessional the night of the election and for the life of me I can't remember but you could see the look on his face when he was done that he thought he may have crossed the line. When they cut back to the panel there was an awkwardness and finally a little later one of the pundits commented on it.

Did someone say senile?

[farmaholic]

[boarderbloke]

New Ag minister is,,,,Lawrence MacAulay (P.E.I.) - Agriculture and Agri-Food.

ya, who? !!!

[boarderbloke]

farma, Craig Oliver has been unprofessional for MORE THAN the last 10 years!

[Braveheart]

Also unprofessional, Floyd Robertson, Peter Mansbridge, Lisa In Flames, everyone at Fox News, Rick Mercer, etc.

[Crestliner]

Farmaholic you are right on....I am shocked at how biased and unprofessional Craig Oliver and the whole CTV gang is, and couldn't believe they went so far on election night. CTV used to be an objective news channel but not anymore. I never thought I would say that I find CBC more fair and better viewing.
Say what you want about Harper, he wasn't flashy or Hollywood, or dramatic or news media savey, he was an economist and administrator of tax dollars plain and simple whether you agreed with him or not.
He didn't give the news media an inch and for that he was called non transparent.
Justin will give them lots to write and report about and we will see his face every day for the next 4 years....it will be a Canadian Camelot. Augh sigh to be so lucky to have another Trudeau in power. I was a teen the last time a Trudeau ran Canada and screwed the west and the countries finances. Just think my children's generation (the mellenials) elected the current Trudeau...they haven't seen 15-20% interest rates and 12% unemployment etc., and just think, the same debt that daddy ran up is still sitting on the books for Junior to look after...wow fun times ahead. Maybe the pot tax will pay back daddies debt and we will all be too stoned to know what's really going on.
Anyways nice to see all the dinasours roaming the halls of Canadian Parliment again. Mccallum and Dion and Goodale....OMG.

[mbdog]

Unprofessional does not describe that minute and a half political hate/media victory speech on national news...pretty hard to blow off with a senility excuse....dripping with arrogance....wow....

[Crestliner]

I remember trying to buy my first 1/4 of land in 1982 and my dad and I were agreeing that it would really be good if we got a 15% interest rate...I might be able to make it work. Thinking back....that's how sick and screwed up we were at the time...desperate for a 15% loan rate. My dad paid 2-3% for 30 yr money in 1958 for his first land...I thought I would never see that....bought my last 1/4 with 2.85% last year...it took Grant Devine 8% interest buy down program in the 80's to make up for the Trudeau screwed up monetary policy to make my first purchase fly. Hey 18-25 year old farmers are you listening.....history can repeat itself....watch out!

[agstar77]

If you treat the media with disdain and make them your enemy for ten years , you will get rants even if they are unproffesional. Harper started it. As I recall PET did the media no favours, but at least he talked to them.
