Only Thing That Will Fly Out Of Canada Faster Than the $30 Billion
And Counting To Buy Them, Are the F-35's Themselves"]
"Your naiveté is very evident
when you wax poetically about Canadian values such as health care and
education. . . . "
My Reply to Osiris:
Well, Osiris,
I pride myself in not being naïve
enough to trust anything Stephen Harper, Peter McKay have to say
about anything
and from what is coming out in the
media, what Canada's military has to say about the F-35's, which is
shocking and one is left wondering why
I also pride myself in not being naive about catastrophic impact the Harper policies will have on my children and my children's children, not just environmentally for which they will be left to make good and big time, but also the dismantles of our social programs including health Care.
I am also not naïve about how Harper policies on oil and gas, the F-35's, and just about everything else have the common thread of money flowing out of Canada, or into the Oil have provinces, causing a weakening of Canadian Federalism and a draining of the average Canadian's finances.
I am also not naïve about there being only one reason for building up a military in the fashion Harper is doing.
And judging from your comments suggesting that Canadians are hawks, I might infer that you will be at the front line, if I were so naive.
I am also not naïve about where
Harper's power base is and that as long as he has this support, and
the opposition is un-united, he will do pretty much whatever he wants
and Canada be dam[redacted]ed.
I am further not naïve about
perceiving the only thing Canadians can do is to stand up, be counted
and let it their opinion be known about Harper and his Con's.
And, I am not naïve about you being the Egyptian god of death.
And I and not naïve enough not to
wonder at your sincerity and motives, when apparently you don't even
have the conviction of your opinions that you would give your real
name.
How's that for not being naïve.
