By next March a central database installed alongside the Police National Computer in Hendon, north London, will store the details of 35 million number-plate "reads" per day. These will include time, date and precise location, with camera sites monitored by global positioning satellites.
Already there are plans to extend the database by increasing the storage period to five years and by linking thousands of additional cameras so that details of up to 100 million number plates can be fed each day into the central databank.
Senior police officers have described the surveillance network as possibly the biggest advance in the technology of crime detection and prevention since the introduction of DNA fingerprinting.
But others concerned about civil liberties will be worried that the
movements of millions of law-abiding people will soon be routinely
recorded and kept on a central computer database for years.

I told the lady.. it simple we are god dam fools. We have been letting two political parties steal us blind for years, and we know it too.
She asked me how I voted , I said I write " Reform our system " None of the above on my ballot. I been doing this now for the past 4 elections. My vote is recorded as a spoiled ballot.. but at least in is counted.

is Mankind a Mistake?<br />

Boston lady's insult and then trashed your own country ... you
didn't even suggest to her that People Who Live In Glass Houses
Should Not Throw Stones? Then you come back home and think
you're some kind of hero? Puh-leese!
The only hope we have is when those who have supported these political parties have died off, then maybe the youth will get involved and save what is left, if their will be anything.
I ask what is the purpose of a political party and since we already have consensus governments in Canada , why cann't we have the same in our provinces and in our nation?
Where is it written that it says only a political party must be the "government" , where is it written we cannot bring about change? BUT WHAT ARE POLITICAL PARTIES GOOD FOR AND WHAT ARE THEIR PURPOSE BCMARY ?
BCMARY I do not need an American to tell me that Canada is all screwed up, we have elected criminal to govern this country for far to long, do you refuse to see this because you are one of those who benefit from the party system!!!
LOOK WITHIN BCMARY.
Myself and several black men I served with over seas were shocked when we returned to Canada , only to learn that my fellow war buddies who just happened to be black, were not aloud to drink with the very white Canadian men they fought along side.
After fighting to secure democracy in Europe, I now sit here some 60 years after that war, living under a party system that pales that of a communist country. My government HAS BEEN stolen away as others have been saying on this site, by low life.
Mary tell me this what have YOU done CANADA today besides pay taxes , which some political party will take for their friends, while our health care and all other public program are starved for cash.
Sorry Mary, but this Second World War Vet can no longer support such a dirty system and I as other will draw a big X through my ballot. But you on the other hand will continue to prop up this corrupt political system.
OH Canada who is standing on guard for thee? It surely is not and has not been the very system that is letting you fall apart.

What is positive about a leader that runs his business offshore , under another nations flag? I served this county and I fought in the name of Canada and if I was good enough to do that then why isn't Canada good enough for our Prime ministers family to run their buisiness out of ?

There must be more grassroots politics and and less elitist politics. This is what it was (or that's what I believe it used to be) before WW II. The reasons elitist politicians have always succeeded can likely be blamed on
(1) the electorate itself, for not becoming educated about the real election issues;
(2) the media, for being more popularist and biased toward the major parties;
(3) the plurality electoral system (winner takes all).
This is of course not the first time these issues are being raised. They are being raised before every election! Do I read things correctly that the objecting voices are becoming louder?
The recommendations of the Royal Commission on Electoral Reform and Party Financing (a serious effort) were all rejected by Mulroney in 1992. A good read through these recommendations would show that there are various ways to improve the system. If the system does not allow elitist politics, e.g. with MMP (the Mixed Member Electoral System), some of the atrocities mentioned above would be eliminated, I believe.
Political parties, governments and countries are all Contrivances’ meant to focus your/our minds on trivialities while the grand scheme is put in place. From the late1600’s until now power has been entrenched not in any particular country per se, but rather within groups of the super-wealthy <br />

<br />
The “modern” world of our so-called Western Civilization began at the end of the 17th century with the blossoming of the British Empire. The underpinnings of that empire actually began several hundred years earlier with the establishment of the City of London, which is now an 800-year old corporation that controls finance and philosophy for an entity called the Crown. This entity is the creator and controller of “central banks.”<br />
<br />
The Crown has never been the King or Queen of England since the establishment of this corporate body. The Crown is the directorate of the corporation. An outline of this cabal is presented at tomvalentine.com. <br />
<br />
Western colonization of the Americas, India and Africa is widely taught in school history courses, so it need not be repeated here. One key aspect of the colonial period is generally omitted or skimmed over from the more basic history courses. This is the fact that all the Crown colonies were established on a corporate model with financial ties to the City of London—not the nation of England or Britain. The Dutch used a similar corporate model with their colonies, but France, Spain and Portugal colonized in the name of their monarchs and the church. <br />
<br />
The directorate of the Crown, whoever they were, had no loyalty to any nation—they were, and are, devoted entirely to their philosophy which seeks absolute power over an Earthly realm. For more than 250 years, the denizens of the Crown brought untold wealth back from the colonies to the British Isles—for themselves—note: the population of the United Kingdom (British, English, Scottish, Irish, Welsh peoples) received very little wealth even though they provided the tax base and cannon fodder. <br />
<br />
The people were invaluable assets of the Crown, but they knew not what they served—and still don’t. No people are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely think they are free (Goethe).<br />

"Individuals have international duties which transcend the national obligations of obedience . . . Therefore [individual citizens] have the duty to violate domestic laws to prevent crimes against peace and humanity from occurring" <br />
Nuremberg War Crime Tribunal, 1950<br />
<br />
The Trilateral Commission was established in 1973. Its founder and primary financial angel was international financier, David Rockefeller, longtime chairman of the Rockefeller family-controlled Chase Manhattan Bank and undisputed overlord of his family's global corporate empire. <br />
Rockefeller's idea for establishing the commission emerged after he had read a book entitled Between Two Ages written by an Establishment scholar, Prof. Zbigniew Brzezinski of Columbia University. <br />
In his book Brzezinski proposed a vast alliance between North America, Western Europe and Japan. According to Brzezinski, changes in the modern world required it. <br />
"Resist as it might," Brzezinski wrote elsewhere, "the American system is compelled gradually to accommodate itself to this emerging international context, with the U.S. government called upon to negotiate, to guarantee, and, to some extent, to protect the various arrangements that have been contrived even by private business." <br />
In other words, it was necessary for the international upper class to band together to protect its interests, and to ensure, in the developed nations, that political leaders were brought to power who would ensure that the global financial interests (of the Rockefellers and the other ruling elites) would be protected over those of the hoi polloi.<br />
<br />
RULING CLASSES UNITE <br />
"The Commission's purpose is to engineer an enduring partnership among the ruling classes of North America, Western Europe and Japan -- hence the term 'Trilateral' -- in order to safeguard the interests of Western capitalism in an explosive world. The private commission is attempting to mold public policy and construct a framework for international stability in the coming decades.<br />

I agree with you entirely with respect to the Martin family running it's business from outside Canada. I'm sure there are many businesses that are avoiding paying their fair share of taxes. The Martin family is, no doubt, operating entirely within the law, and it seems in business moral/social concerns are way down the list. One positive thing I can do is to vote for a party that might change the law, realising of course that my party probably won't get elected. It sometimes seems that the so called leaders of the country (including the provincial premiers) are doing their best to tear the country apart.
You know, I always make a point of going down to the War Memorial on Nov 11th, and always those few lines from "In Flanders Fields" come to mind:
"...To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Are we breaking the faith?. Perhaps a positive thing to do would be for me to send a reminder to all the party leaders before the election and ask them to ponder these lines.
