I had a comment thrown at me in regards to salary caps being one step higher than a job at Mcdonalds. Let&#39;s talk about this.&lt;br /&gt;Yes, there are some very important jobs within our civil service sector. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But where has the value for these jobs come from?&lt;br /&gt;Is the job of a mother raising her child not just as important? Can you put a value on that?&lt;br /&gt;Is a job at Mcdonalds that bad? I&#39;m sure the person working there is serving the people who make 100K plus a year. By the way for anyone working in the private sector working for minimum wage is not enough.  How many federal employees work for 10 dollars or less per hour? The private sector is not funded by tax payers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can you justify publicly paid jobs which earn more than 100k per year?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tax payers who collectively pay for these jobs on average earn less than half of that salary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let&#39;s be real. This is only one man&#39;s thoughts. And I may be so far left or right with my thoughts, but we need to rethink and revisit all aspects of spending and government reform.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have we become so trained by our current method of government that we are not willing or capabale of independant thought..??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I live by the theory, that if it makes moral sense and good fair business sense its most likley a good idea..  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LETS BE ACCOUNTABLE!! That&#39;s my point.</description><link>http://generationspartyofcanada.blogspot.com/2008/12/to-continue-on-with-my-thoughts.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Frustrated Canadian)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108208580352154698.post-7125715202692734849</guid><pubDate>Thu, 04 Dec 2008 02:07:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2008-12-04T00:30:14.917-05:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Bloc Quebecois</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Bob Ray</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Canadian political parties</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Canadian politics</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">coalition</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Generations Party of Canada blog</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Gilles Duceppe</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Jack Layton</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Liberals</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">NDP</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">PC</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Stephane Dion</category><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">Steven Harper</category><title>Lets test our democracy! CANADA needs a real political party</title><description>So I am sitting here,reading the news papers and watching the news while i am still pissed about a 300 million dollar expense to us the tax payers for an election &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-error&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_0&quot;&gt;that&lt;/span&gt; did nothing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am frustrated that Canada has parties that are not true NATIONAL parties such as The Bloc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dream, is to create a TRUE national party. The &quot;Generations Party of Canada&quot; which would have &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_1&quot;&gt;representation&lt;/span&gt; in EVERY province in CANADA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My thoughts in brief are as follows. I will expand as &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-error&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_2&quot;&gt;interest&lt;/span&gt; in this concept explodes into reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;! - Lets run this country like a business....&lt;br /&gt;! - Bureaucrats do not need to fly first class .......&lt;br /&gt;! - Make decisions which make sense for ALL Canadians.....&lt;br /&gt;! - STOP corporate bail outs and hand outs.......&lt;br /&gt;! - Propose salary caps to top &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-error&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_3&quot;&gt;CEO&#39;s&lt;/span&gt; of companies and employment of Canadian workers in exchange for tax breaks&lt;br /&gt;! - Reform the spending of all levels of government..... Impose criminal charges to anyone in the public sector who abuses power and &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_4&quot;&gt;expenses&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;! - STOP the needless borrowing of money from the Bank Of Canada and World Banks. (treat the government funds as a regular person .... if you don&#39;t have it you cant spend it)....&lt;br /&gt;! - Every elected member of this party will not be paid in excess of $75,000 per year ...&lt;br /&gt;! - &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_5&quot;&gt;Impose&lt;/span&gt; a salary cap to all government &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_6&quot;&gt;employees&lt;/span&gt;....&lt;br /&gt;! - INVEST in new fuel technology and vehicles..... Become less dependant on world markets...&lt;br /&gt;! - Take care of our own in Canada first.... I&#39;m not saying ignore world problems but if we are borrowing money to feed starving people lets borrow to take care of our own....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our foreign policy should be reviewed and re-evaluated ... I remember how I felt on the day the towers fell. After all, the tragedy happened in North America. The countries and people involved should be held accountable. The wars and fighting has to stop one way or another...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look, I know anyone reading this is most likely saying what a nut! But the above mentioned dream is only one man&#39;s thoughts . I know I&#39;d have to put a lot of work into pulling this off, but I think everyone in Canada (except those getting rich off of tax payers backs) will agree with me when i say lets start over... TIME FOR CHANGE! Generations Party of Canada can do this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will continue to move forward with this dream.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am looking for creative Canadians who are &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_7&quot;&gt;capable&lt;/span&gt; of &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_8&quot;&gt;independent&lt;/span&gt; thought to come forward and create a new Canadian political party&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Generations Party Of Canada.... bringing fair open accountability to all Canadians and every generation in this great land....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have not taken steps to create this party as of yet, but with enough interest from Canadians it can happen. We can do this. ITS TIME ...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am open to all discussion from all individuals except hard line party members from other parties. Sorry you had your chance to speak your time is OVER.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a hard working single father of three, who wants to create a better place for the young to be proud of for years to come...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ask your self is your job secure ?&lt;br /&gt;Can I make a change?&lt;br /&gt;Am I sick of others spending my money?&lt;br /&gt;How can a Canadian political party run in a federal election with out provincial &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-corrected&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_9&quot;&gt;representation&lt;/span&gt;?&lt;br /&gt;Would I be proud to explain the state of this nation to the brave soldiers who fought and died for this country in World Wars past?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHY? WHY? WHY?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have the right to vote and create a real national party..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is &lt;span class=&quot;blsp-spelling-error&quot; id=&quot;SPELLING_ERROR_10&quot;&gt;a lot&lt;/span&gt; of work to do .... I am Willing are you??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Coming soon... I will have a YouTube video posted speaking about my above mentioned ideas. Will post more info in the next few days.</description><link>http://generationspartyofcanada.blogspot.com/2008/12/lets-test-our-democracy-canada-needs.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Frustrated Canadian)</author><thr:total>1</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
