PM Plans Own Media Centre

"... a secret project to build a new, government-controlled briefing room at the cost of $2 million"

This is yet another reason why we should refuse to pay "general" taxes.

now there's a report that the government-controlled media centre was abandoned "at an early stage"<br />

From your link <blockquote>A hand-drawn sketch of the facility also showed a space for "maybe permanently installed cameras with feeds to media." <br><br> That suggested that the news cameras may have been controlled by government employees instead of independent media journalists, reports the Star. <br><br> <strong>Many details of the project were blacked-out or withheld because of "international affairs and defence," "security," and cabinet confidentiality.</strong> </blockquote> All this from a guy you say you'll be voting for. I have to question the sincerity of people who defend the indefensible.

So what? The government hasn't gone ahead with it. & where did you read anything that said I was going to vote Conservative? Post a link to where I said I was, if you can. With so much information at your fingertips you seem to have a tendency to somehow NOT be informed about things.

"So what?" <br><br> You've got to be joking. <br><br> "The government hasn't gone ahead with it." <br><br> Not that we know of, but they seriously considered it which is almost just as bad as going ahead with it. These "thoughts" tell me a lot about the kind of people who are running loose inside the government with their hands at the controls. <br><br> "where did you read anything that said I was going to vote Conservative?" <br><br> I apologize. You did not explicitly say you were going to vote conservative. It seems I got you and psiclone mixed up since you've been like two peas in a pod recently. <br><br> "Post a link to where I said I was, if you can." <br><br> Although to my knowledge you did not explicitly say you'd vote for Harper, you've posted several opinions that appear to back up Harper. Here's a series of posts that serve as an example of what gave me the impression that you were going to vote "new" conservative ... <br><br> <a href="http://www.vivelecanada.ca/article.php/20071012101710725">Canadian PM Stacks Deck of new Afghan Mission Review Board</a> <br><br> It is possible that you are so much against the Liberals, that in an effort to make them look like fools you are inadvertently promoting Harper as a viable alternative - you tell me. <br><br> <a href="http://www.vivelecanada.ca/article.php/20071015095036898">Then there's this statement from you</a>: <br><br> "Believe me, Harper & the rest of his crew aren't my heroes but right now the Conservatives are the most "ViveleCanada.ca" party there is, and has been since soon after they were elected." <br><br> Such a claim is hard for me to swallow, considering that Harper is selling out Canada (just as the Liberals were doing) without skipping a beat.
