SPP Throne Speech

I thought it an extremely well thought out and productive Throne Speech. Putting the nail in the coffin of that fiasco Kyoto Protocol, good riddance to bad garbage. Focusing on " broad base income and business tax breaks " can't wait until the budget as this is code for substantial income tax break (yeah team)and Harper is right we are taxed to highly. It hobbled the oppostion parties well actually party as the BQ and NDP are basically irrelelvant although with the Liberal party imploding maybe the NDP might gain some strength next election which would be brilliant especially if the Green get a seat or two which basically splits the left and that leaves Harper sitting in the middle again. Fan bloddy tantastic as well as signalling a more comprehensive and longer stint in Afgahnistan to get the job done there as only the Canadian Military seems to be capable of at this time which in turn gives us more and more credits with our International Allies also of which might come in usefull when the Yanks recognize the North West Passage as being Internal to Canada which I am betting will happen just before Bush is retired!

I think this is another person who didn't watch the throne speech.

"George Bush has declared the war on terrorism to be the cause of his generation. The cause of Canadian sovereignty will be ours." - John Godfrey, MP for Don Va

Then you would be wrong! I am an old political junkie and thrive off of CPAC to prove this I can describe the Usher and the Black Rod and if you do not know what I am talking about then you have little knowledge of the parliamentary system!

"I think this is another person who didn't watch the throne speech."

What's there to watch? You've seen one "Throne Speech", you've seen them all.

Here it is in a nutshell:

1) The Economy is doing well (although more people are in the poor house).

2) We need to get tough on crime (because we need to use our police force to suppress dissent to assist in demolishing any forms of democracy).

3) Our National Healthcare is the best in the world (although it's not the best and getting worse and we're doing everything in our power to dismantle it via privatization).

4) Canadians should be proud (even though their corporate elitest leader is Yankee Doodle Dandy Lite, whose has no sense of nationalism.

5) And finally, let's stay in Afghanistan because we're making progress (even though we have no moral, nor legal right to be there).

Yeah, nice speech.

"Will Duceppe, Layton or May have the courage to put their political careers on the line for Canada's future"

Well, no. I don't think Duceppe will be doing that any time soon.

Taking into scope everything (see: crazy) that is happening in Canada as well as around the globe I ask you, "Does anyone else get the feeling that they are starting to lose their minds"?

I know I do...

Yeah Chris, I sometimes wish I was one of those sheeple who does not know or does not care what is going on with our Democracy and elseware around the world. It would be a lot easer on our mental health to be ignorant!

Thomas Gray<br />
Ode on a Distant Prospect of Eton College<br />
<br />
".Yet ah! why should they know their fate? <br />
Since sorrow never comes too late, <br />
And happiness too swiftly flies. <br />
Thought would destroy their paradise. <br />
No more; where ignorance is bliss, <br />
'Tis folly to be wise."<br />

English poet Gray wrote the poem in 1742 and "unintentionally added a proverb to the language. It has been observed that Gray didn't mean it is better to be ignorant than wise at all times, the popular usage given to his words, for he makes an important qualification by using the word where. But a reading of the whole poem shows that he did mean it is better for man to be blissfully ignorant of his fate." From "Encyclopedia of Word and Phrase Origins" by Robert Hendrickson (Facts on File, New York, 1997). <br />
