Tom - Hope you don't mind that I started a new thread on this subject -
because it's EXPLOSIVE.
If Harper and his Cons have done this to Canada's reputation - nevermind
to prisoners of war, his days are over. He and his government cannot
recover from something like this.

NDP support.
But agree, we shouldn't be there. But all three corrupt parties support

Liberal-socialism is a great idea so long as the credit is good and
other people pay for it. When the credit runs out and those that pay
for it leave, they can all share having nothing but debt and discontentment.
