Comment on The Harper Dictatorship is Over (if you want it) by Marion

Could the shut down of parliament mean, the NAU is here? There have been meetings, with, the three country’s, Canada, the USA and Mexico. The NAU, was to take place in, 2010, and all the events that have happened, fit. The Canadian Constitution, has been trashed. Democracy and Freedom, doesn’t exist. Our Civil Rights, are, no more. The government has ignored Canadians protests, such, as the HST. I, think the recession was engineered, and the HST, was, put out to distract citizens from what was really going on. It is much easier to sneak policies in, when there is chaos. NAFTA has the power to force Canada, to give, 60%, of our natural resources to the USA. Citizens of BC, are aware, their natural resources, have gone to the USA. The, Canadian National Railroad, went to the USA, along with the BC Railroad. Our, mills have gone to China. The NAFTA, also has,the power to, distribute wealth, where ever. There, will be, no borders between the three countries. The Amero, will be the currency, health care, education, and such, will be identical, in the three countries. Us, citizens are going through the same upheaval, as Canadian people are.

I just sent the entirety of your post to Iggy/Layton and my own MP. Thanks Michael for speaking what so many of us are thinking anyway. It’s not crazy, it’s necessary.

The ugly truth is that it is not only the avoidance of parliament to produce the documents,It is not only the avoidance of committee and perliamentary scrutiny. It is more than the fact that the consevatives are doing the budget and other government business with out any parliamenatry scrutiny. It is more than the attack on the senate, and the parliament(bodies which though maligned,have done a very good job of sustaining Canada itself). It is more than the contempt harper is showing toward the very institution of democracy. It is more than the arrogant disregard,and contempt for the people of Canada. It is more than the act of treason that started all of this (Cadman affair). It is more than the colosal fossil, It is more than torture, or renditions. It is more than a contempt of law. It is more than the fact that every one of his “fabled” beliefs are all broken. It is more than the election spending games. It is more than the attack on unions,and fair wages. It is more than watching over the end of Canadian manufacturing. It is more than isotopes. It is about more than patronage ( 5 new rush limbaugh’s coming to the senate). It is more than an end to an independant court. It is more than an attack of civil liberty. It is more than Canada’s position in the world is vanishing…
Unless you want King harper, This governmemt, is an attack on the very things that make Canada, Canada

Mr. Harper thinks Canadians don’t care? Look at how little respect he has for us!

I am thoroughly disgusted at the proroging of Parliament by “King” Stephan Harper. He seems to think he is an absolute monarch.

I am so angry at Harper’s unilateral decision to proroge parliament again. It feels like our leader is a dictator rather than a leader.
I want the concerns about captured “detainees” to be fully discussed. There should be no tolerance for torture anywhere in the world.

We are neither discouraged nor disengaged. We love this country and our democratic “first past the post” system. It’s fair and square - The Canadian Way. In fact, we love this country so much that we have to protect it from it’s enemies in the so-called green party. That’s why we quit the NDP after many years to join with the Conservative Party of Canada, to protect this country from those who would seen it torn asunder just to further their own, now disproved, eco-nut agenda. But it’s not too late for you! Give this eco-terrorist shit up, and join with us to make this country even better! A little Churching up wouldn’t do you any harm, either…
