Catholic Church Spit on By Toronto Catholic School Board

How can the Toronto Catholic School Board approve a policy whereas they will no longer stop (union) homosexual teachers, married or single from being hired and teaching ‘Catholic’ school children ?

And what would you expect from front-line militant- union-goons, and countless $100 k- plus, liberal pontificators, very very few of both, whom actually attend Sunday Mass..... less still of those, who agree with the very basics of Catholic doctrine.

Where is the Toronto Archdiocese?

Where was the Toronto Archdiocese during the legal heresy of the Mark Hall affair which involved a ‘forced’ prom that had to welcome and entertain an ‘adult’ homosexual man-friend of a teen-age boy?

If the Diocese wants no say in the education of ‘Catholic’ children anymore it is (imperative) that the Church demand the word ‘Catholic’ be stricken from Ontario School Boards!.


In addition the Province Quebec has no ordered all children, in public schools, private or Catholic schools, and home-schooled children be taught homosexual activist championed propaganda, and the ideology of Darwinism.

Where is the protest and ‘Country’- wide support on the part of the Canadian Bishops to challenge this lunacy, constitutionally? When did free speech exclude forced ideologies imposed by the state no less? Forced ideologies are not free speech, nor do they equate with free citizens!!

I would further suggest that some direct intervention, by the Vatican including up to Bishop removal be strongly considered on this long-held Achilles Heel to the Universal Church.

Believe me, this is as nicely as I can put this intolerable situation and total, nation-blatant cowardice, on the part of the flat-lined, liberal-politicalized Canadian Catholic Church!!

If you don’t have the youth first and foremost, you have nothing, but the dead burying the dead!

And to those who are given more, more will be expected.

Real Family Friendly Tax Reform

Real Family Friendly Tax Reform

Family- friendly tax reform can only be real ‘conservative’ reform. Liberalism and socialism have no realistic solutions that are sustainable or realistic.

Furthermore, to date, liberals have shown no desire, will or a means for a tax situation totally out of hand whereas standard services expected for the people are being left at the curbside and/or paid by non official tax increases such as user fees.

The only definition of tax is how much money is taken by the government from the purses and wallets of citizens..period!

No one is immune to feeling the tax pinch, from the few who have more than they can possibly spend, and to those to care about, those greater masses staggering from the gaping tax wound,
Those especially hurt, the ‘Little Guy’, with family are supposedly close to every politicking party leader. How can any of the mainstream parties ever say that with a straight face, anymore?

One couldn’t list in a single page all the ways and means various levels of government literally scheme to take money from citizens, including downloading service costs to lower governments while brazenly setting the service perimeters.

It has only just been deferred that the city of Toronto will charge automobile taxes in addition to the exact same taxes (not replaced) traditionally charged by the provincial government.
This is akin to the provincial and federal government both taking income tax. Can regional and/or municipal income taxes be far behind?

If only the media could focus on the government we all want and need, instead of favouring and flaunting the most politically- correct and/or grandiose, therefore proportionately, impractical governments that we have bore perpetually, at least, in my lifetime.

Herein, lies just a ‘couple’ of real tax reform initiatives with real bite that will work if tried. The system sure is broke, in fact, haemorrhaging. For one instance, there is no such thing as property ownership when property taxes are equivalent to rental fees.

Firstly, it should be clearly resolved that governments should be designed and focussed to help ‘all’ citizenry, providing the most cost- efficient, quality basic services, with the utmost least rules and restrictions, necessary.

Any government that instates/and or controls socialist programs i.e. health and education, the greatest expenditures in military-less Canada, must also provide the funding, as opposed to making socialist programs law and than downloading costs to lower governments.

It may be a sure way to get a political arm (party) elected by the apparently plentiful myopic and amnesic socialist masses... to create programs and still have election promise money to start even new programs, but it is also the way to break the ‘same’ tax payer to ‘all’ governments.

Any blatant taxes referenced only as special health earmarks or pay- back- the- debt user ‘charges’ (who doesn’t use electricity) in the case of years of mismanaged government electricity provision, to be removed and taken from general tax rate and revenue.

Ending of Municipality or Regional Tax Collection

Less government(s) means less money every single time!
It is not to suggest the ending of municipal funding only the ending of tax rating and collection by municipalities.

As we have seen in this horrible socialist tax experiment in Ontario, federal and provincial governments worked towards clearing the deck of deficits and debts simply by downloading costs to lower tax-collectors and keeping their fingers and toes in the dike by many ‘one-time’ capital ‘gifts’ to keep municipal comer and goer politicians quiet, i.e. Toronto Transit, education and health and ambulance costs.

The province needs to collect all the taxes needed for rightful logical provincial services, and thereby going back to being a much more accountable and responsible province rather than a political parties simple pawn piece.

Municipalities would get money back based on whatever the most logical and fair formula is, with emergency contingents accounted for, for municipal politicians to spend on traditional municipal concerns. This as opposed to left wing save the world hand-wringing paralysing ideologies or conversely Taj Mahal projects, that can’t sustain themselves.

Economy Boosting Property-Tax-Reform

This tax reform would boost the economy under normal markets. I say ‘normal’ markets because nothing jives when average wages in no way support average house costs of 300k

Nor is it a ‘good’ or ‘booming’ economy for ‘families’ when houses costs 300k way ahead of a steady but slow house price increase over the long haul. Good for investors, good for real estate agents good for lawyers...yes! But to turn the domestic housing market into the stock-market is cruel and depressing to new and moderate income families.

Never the socialist, do I suggest government interference as the answer, except maybe in this case to reign in irresponsible financial institutions, that may be playing fast and loose with credit to those who in no way can afford it. The banks must be banking that the bank of Canada won’t raise rates (because of their own irresponsibility) thus bankrupting a heck of a lot of debtors and young families pretty much destroying the whole economy.

Under ‘normal’ affordable market conditions properties should not be taxed solely by the value of the property but for the good of the family or senior by the income of the present owner thru a means test.

All single dwelling properties in the province would be assessed exactly the same with a large city location-preference only variance or scale. In other words, every single dwelling property in Toronto would be assessed under the same formula, whereas every rural dwelling would be assessed the same.

The owner(s) of the property would pay full taxes (hopefully not at the ‘rental’ rates now set) if they made a level of mid- middle-income or above, taking into account number of children or seniors dependant and living in the same house, easily based on income tax information, provided.

Those below this income level would pay less taxes accordingly. Property ownership should not be prohibitive on the bases of taxes alone, certainly not, at the ridiculous rates now charged thanks to downloading and irresponsible government on all levels.

Governments can interfere with taxes all they want if they want to cut back on socialist services, the private industry will pick-up, including private health care insurance/services and vouchers for choice of public or private schools.

They can also save a pile of money along with families and only disappoint unions and socialists. aka private, or special interest groups effecting the due and proper freedom of others.

Live Earth (Worms) and Really, Really Inconven....

Live Earth Worms and Really Really Inconvenient Truths

More pre-hyperbole than homosexual ‘is what it is’ week in Toronto, Live Earth/ Dead Souls went on with the usual leftist ‘look at me, I made you blink’ attention grabbers.

The same travelling homosexual parade of bare-ass ‘responsible’ parents of North America, only claim they bring in ten billion dollars in freak- show tourism to a couple or three of Canadian cities, whose population tops a million each, yeah..right. I’ll eat my hat if the whole country of Canada, pop. 30 million/ or who cares, does 30 billion in tourism in a whole year!

They also claim ten percent of the population is homosexual, as well as sheep whose studies didn’t account for near- sightedness.

( side-bar- Do these homo-sheeps completely devoid of one of their few instincts, this one, to procreate set up their sexual liaisons as homosexuals, maybe dress in drag, chaps, sip wine and listen to Broadway tunes or seek out kinky stall sex through AIDs transmitting ‘Glory Holes’? (Thanks Christy Blatchford for way too much information and deadly perversion sympathy, on your rise to the top of Canadian leftist daring media)
I mean these homo-sheep’s ‘lifestyle’, their centre/focus, their worth... are all focussed and contained on obsessed and careless sex acts, right? As opposed to blimps in nature of less than one percent ..more the likely... and worthy of nothing at all. But hey, ask the sheep farmers if ten out of every hundred sheep are strictly homosexuals in their pasture. end of side bar)

Not to mention, that aside from being the greatest liars and proponents of self-studies, homosexual activist apologists make the greatest of parents ( I did a self- study and to my surprise, found I had hair, was good looking, rich and tall.

Of course, I didn’t have the aid of ‘some’ sociological or psychological bodies who also stray off into opinions of abstract, even political, mental- illness, causes, and then be quoted as a ‘science’, or scientific study).

The whole abstract mental illness profession, including psychoanalysing or naval gazing and regressed memory blah blah blah all went down the toilet when modern drugs and other ‘physical’ diagnostics and cures came into being.

Even ‘momma’s boys’ are usually sourced back to mentally- ill momma’s who cause momma’s boys, (just ask their former, short-term girl friends). These unnatural mamma’s are more likely to be elbowing for front rows at gymnastic class, ballet class, figure skating, or diving class, not exactly your open-ended soccer, or hockey moms.

If you want to avoid the lifestyle, avoid the typical breeding grounds for the lifestyle...duh!

Anyway, so only some of the usual leftist Earth-Worm stars are in attendance at ‘Live Earth’.
‘Earth Worms’, because they’re in their element.... in political manure... as opposed to real science, and real causes for concern... Gore, Madonna et al. No one had to watch (well except poor Marxist taught, union labelled state kids, in the immediate future.... again!) as it wasn’t hard to imagine.

This whole leftist group of over-grown proselytising narcissistic, nihilist, pantheistic hippies could never get the attention they seek for anything they could come up with of ‘real value’, (including Madonna’s, talent) so they have to invent crisis and pretend they’re super-heroes with the cures.

And the new brain-washed Marxists swallow it all because it ‘feels good’ as in they’re doing something....anything....good.

Pass, the beer, pot and condoms, we have good vibrations here...people!

Ring those bells and bring back Bill and Hillary. We feel their pain!


Of course the biggest inconvenient truths are that Christ was not a socialist, or a capitalist.

Neither, was He a purest pacifist, and certainly He did know of, and contend with ‘Evil’ all His most glorious life- example and teaching, to strive for, not pretend to emulate. Catholic and Christian Church evolvement, aside, if you played a tape recording of the Holy Gospels verbatim to a crowd of a million in physical attendance, who could walk away with a straight face and head full of screwy ideas, modern leftists attribute to ‘their’ Christ, as if Christ does not stand alone in sacrifice, love, servitude, not to mention, perfection and Truth, from anyone on earth, let alone the morons who know Him so well?

We will all be punished, in Divine Truth and Justice that logically has to exist, that good and God exist, and are triumphant over evil, but it won’t be a laughing or angry God, Son or Holy Ghost. It will be the weeping.... forlorn, loving, One.

‘Homosexual families’ are neither normal or healthy and never needed to exist until, apparently now. Nor, are they are on any par what-so-ever with the history of the black struggles, persecutions and victories.

Abortion is the killing of babies by any measure, aka murder in real justice and real moral worlds, not virtual politically- correct legal worlds

It is carried out almost one hundred percent for matters of convenience and/or profit of someone(s) and yes, it is sickening, always has been, and always will be, and is something rightfully to be totally ashamed, and remorseful of.

Nothing in the modern world, including distracting stupid causes, the environment, or the obsessions for both premature death or unrealistic eternal life has erased wrong, and behaviours to be ashamed and remorseful of.

O' Really, Obama!

O’ Really, Obama!

Referenced in the tawdry come-lately tabloid, Drudge Report, Obama is quoted as saying the ‘Faith’ has been hijacked by the religious right.

Obama also says, "lowering taxes doesn’t jibe in his Bible". Like raising taxes, on the most heavily taxed, the lower middle income family, does "jibe" in his Bible, likewise, Marxism, or political correctness? Where’s the Democrat and Canadian values found in anyone’s Bible?

He doesn’t have a Bible. He has the Democrat bibble as in drivel, written about the time as Roe Vs Wade, and circa the stacking of ‘liberal’ Marxist judges throughout the free world, who would have likewise been ‘socially’ suitable for the communist world.

Suitable, as in ‘Constitutionally interpreted’, unlimited government power and Marxist, and union powers, as long as a ‘liberal’ government is in power, and no freedoms of speech for Christians or Conservatives, but unlimited public powers of perversion for all things liberal and disgusting, and socially dividing and repressing.

Clinton kept his bibble in his front trouser pocket next to Dean’s missing Salami. Where’s Obama going to keep his? Maybe, in his back pocket close to where he really sees and respects the American people, going by his voting record, his many coverups and gaffs already.

Blacks of black ancestry in the U.S. who were long supported by Christ,

Whom, also bore their suffering and won their freedom and vindication by Martin Luther King Jr.’s use of the Christian faith, (not the perverted and hateful Black Panthers, Rap, Spike Lee or fanatical Islam) should be outraged by Democrat anti-Christ behaviours, legislation and proudly bias, judge selections. Fanatical Islam is more enslaving of women and actually murderous of (simply) non-believers than anyone in history.

Gospel music and Christian blacks supported and raised good black families. Rap, Democrats and perverted laws separated and destroyed black culture, black youths and families.

The ‘Christian Right’ barely represented by President Bush, though more than Reagan, as he did (in my opinion) appointed more blacks in one administration than the Democrats seriously even looked at, even when not in power.

John F. Kennedy, in historical truth, of the Irish black eye, and so called ‘man’ himself, took a heck of a lot of public pressure and private persuasion before he lifted a finger for the blacks, weighing the political consequences and gambling right only in retrospect.

Anyone, who thinks Martin Luther King would be happy with the way the black culture, and American society in general, or the new and improved Democrat Party turned out, that Obama is so pleased with, is dreaming.

Obama is an inexperienced legislator and though that would be a plus, but for his limited liberal, (therefore assured advancement) record, but as smooth talking and power hungry as the valueless Clintons.

Muppet Nightmare, Michael Moore At It Again

Muppet Nightmare, Michael Moore At It Again

While Michael Moore is shooting bull-turds in a barrel, and as usual getting away with it, thru Hollywood, and leftist media Oscar winning propaganda, here is yet another short-coming of Canadian, Marxist ‘free’ health- care. Free, that is in a Nation, of sixty percent general, seen and unseen..... taxes of the lower end, middle income wage earners.

Hey, didn’t Canadian taxpayers even pay for one of Moores so-called documentaries?
Canadian liberal control freaks (there are no other kinds, despite a variety of self-labels) won’t allow for free flowing entrepreneur style health care. That means, no non-unionized non government active hospitals, including no ‘real’ private religious hospitals.

(Side Bar) There are also no private Catholic School Systems even allowed in some provinces by name or by any means. In Ontario, our pro-abortion, pro-homosexual agenda, come Pope critic, ‘Catholic’ Premier, Dalton McGuinty (who sends his kids to private school and personally killed tax rebate legislation, that alloted for any less afluent parents the same ‘free choice’ to do so) promises he will never kill full funding for Catholic schools.

Why would he?

He has more control than the Bishops, parents, and even Marxist Catholic Unions who he courted extensively, to vote him in, over politically correct and propaganda drowned kids of Ontario. He controls all purses, regulations and micro-management from Queen’s Park. (End of Side Bar)

Ontario, while under ‘conservative’ leadership recently took over some Catholic General Hospitals (hard enough to come by, as they were) and turned them into Nursing Homes presumably through the power of licensing and heavy handed government control of economies
i.e. government ‘insurance’ as if governments ever invest in economies.

Even ½ and1/2 China now sees a virtue there, if not in human rights and freedoms!

But, here’s something to hit Canadians in the gut on the street level. Socialized health-care thanks to control freaks, who never have a face or name primarily runs on crisis-management.

That is they will order all the tests you want (that you will still have to wait in line for) only ‘after’ you have demonstrated obvious symptoms of an illness like, like heart disease, stroke or cancer, often after it is too, late.

Meanwhile, you can hear all the advertising of rolling diagnostic and scanning centres, and private clinics on the AM radio from New York and Buffalo, where one only has to pay from $150 to $1200 and get valuable on time, non doctor ordered testing whose costs quadruples (at least) when government takes over.

Try going to a Doctor in Ontario and asking for expensive ‘government’ tests....just because.

Just because, you want to know before it’s too late. By the way in our ‘free’ system, McGuinty is taking more and more money each year in ear marked ‘fees’ (not taxes, mind you) and chopping more and more medical coverage off the ‘free’ list.

B the b, men always have to pay for the prostrate cancer blood- test, whether it’s done often, or only once.

Of course, it is wrong to ever think anything ever was free, only ‘postponed’ till now, as we pay heavily for the last few generations of free education, free electricity, free pensions, and free health care, and previous free tax discounts of Marxist governments that never covered actual costs.

And we still don’t even have a military, nor, since Pierre Turdeau, to boot.

Excommunication, Grave Sin, and Abortion

Excommunication, Grave Sin, and Abortion

Among the ‘too common’ of words in the modern liberal p. c. vocabulary is the word, validation.

The Chair of St. Peter has validated the obvious truth, yet again in public fashion. He has stated he has no problem with Bishops Excommunicating Catholic politicians who vote for pro-abortion bills, laws, initiatives etc.

In fact, again he states the obvious when he exclaims that such politicians have already excommunicated themselves, when they avail themselves in such a way to the politically correct humanist ideology so starkly absurd in contrast to Christ.

Catholic politicians who publicly give abortion, abortionists, feminist organizations and Planned Parenthood (the number one underwriter of the modern abortion holocaust), are especially abhorrent because as public figures they are making a statement that the humanist world trumps Christ, and our religion when it comes to ‘okaying’ the killing of babies

More often than not, the common reason for such killing, is simply as an ‘option of choice’ and convenience...not to imply there is ever a ‘good’ reason for innocent and helpless baby... killing.

An act, admitted for what it is, even by scientists and feminists.. now on the ‘choice’ end of their greasy excuse rope with nothing, but blood on their hands.

When Catholic public figures such as politicians, (not to mention judges, pundits, and celebrities) commit such grave public acts of Catholic and moral treason of abortion support, they are logically, excommunicated.

Indeed, in Quebec there is reportedly a Catholic Priest who runs for office as a New Democrat, (Canada’s humanist Marxist party for the workers) who would naturally be/are politically authoritarian, pro-abortion... beyond the pale.

But, what happens when private Catholics vote for such politicians running on abortion platforms and especially (by extrapolation,) for political ‘parties’ running on such political platforms?

(.....indeed why do Catholic politicians ‘validate’ officially pro-abortion and anti- family political parties such as the Democratic Party in the U.S. and all liberal, fiscal- conservative, libertarian, and Green Parties in Canada, in short, ‘all’ political parties, save Social Conservative Parties... by taking up their colours (of black) and running for them, ‘validating’ to all Catholics and Christians, that it is okay to be pro-abortion, or to work for pro-abortion organizations?)

Well, objectively, by the same Catholic Canon Law and Doctrine the Holy Father refers to, these ‘private’ Catholics are committing a ‘Grave’ sin, themselves, though not excommunicable as such, in itself, serious enough... to condemn a soul none the less, if knowingly committed.
Of course, this indemnifies millions, but I don’t recall where numbers much matter as there is plenty of room in Hell and Heaven, and over-population fraudulent ideology, won’t keep a person any cooler.

Gutless Bishops and Priests ought to tell private Catholics about what constitutes abortion support, on the merits of ‘imperative’ right and wrong alone, let alone mentioning punishment (Hell), or they are leading their flocks elsewhere, than onto Heaven.

These grave sins are actually worse, than public ‘excommunication’ sins, because Catholics and Christians ought to be quite clear, themselves, on such grave acts that run so contrary to Christianity, God and the Holy Ghost. I believe many are quite clear on what they are doing but refuse to let it cloud their attainment of worldly, needs and perceived comforts and popularity.

To feel liberated by some humanist ‘opinion’ or ‘notion’ or ‘law’ for that matter, of ‘Separation of State and Church’, to be able to be, free to vote for whatever anti-Christian measures are piggy- backed forth, as long as one’s temporal issues are otherwise satisfied, is too illogical to be excused as part of selective moral and Christian thinking, or lessons... learned.

And too, when was it never explained all along, of any notion of having to put up with hardship (Christian sacrifice) or expected persecution as a Christian, from the ‘world’, and in modern humanist times, the infiltrated ‘House’ as it were... and under any Trojan Horse by name of diversity ( read, free us from these shackles of tradition and absolutes... and take us over) or modern notion of ‘Love of Christ’ for all, ( read, moral relativism can never be wrong and sin is .........’okay’........ these days, having been long- liberated in the 50's and 60's by our parents).

Of course, one must also think of which pro-abortion, anti-family ‘groups’, one belongs to officially, as in membership. This too, is a logical and objective extension of ‘things’ that can put one in ‘grave’ sin, at minimum, regardless of anyone’s ‘opinion’, ‘don’t think so’s’, ‘think so’s’ or druthers.

And why any of this would come as a surprise to anyone, especially, Catholic religious is really the most dumbfounding aspect, of the whole issue.
Can you see, in the pre- non-enlightened times of ‘legal’ abortion on demand, and times when babies were always considered a Blessing...... a person trying to explain modern times, and modern Catholicism and Christianity of today? The families of those times, would rightly assume the world was headed for moral anarchy and that lies galore about a recorded Christ and
Christianity, could not even be possible.

By the way, the Holy Father is in agreement with all of this and more, as he has stated and simply as a matter of love, logic and Truth.

But, back to these anti-Catholic and Christian groups that include, unions (that include ‘Catholic’ unions), membership of political parties, feminist groups, fan groups etc.,...How can such membership not be a grave sin?

Well they can’t...they are grave sins, and it can be no consolation to know that according to Revelations, ‘groups’ or ‘bunches’ of sinners will be the first taken out, ... first burnt, and sent to Hell. Memberships in the world have their privileges but, also some serious drawbacks in and out of a lifetime.

‘Closure’ has a whole other connotation in the after-life in accordance with Revelations.

And Marxist unions are exactly how Satan successfully entices people to his agenda and how he controls the workforces and their souls i.e. ‘we are going to get you that raise alright, but we are going to make some public statements, both political and immoral, and we are going to support groups, Christians would be ashamed of’.

Of course, what is most important, is that, we are going to do so ‘in your name’, and on ‘your behalf’ with your implied, and implicit or whole-hearted support. We will gain and keep credibility, relevance and power, by sheer numbers of membership and in the case of Catholic teachers, even better...... credibility, by ‘okayed’ Anti-Christ, ideology from the ‘inside’.

The humanist, government and judicially- backed, groups such as unions may have a worldly granted right, (not in any Constitution) to take money from ‘your’ earnings in the form of dues, but no one is forced to be an active ‘member’ of a ‘bargaining unit’, signing and carrying a card, utilizing the unions aid, contributing to the union in any manner including attending meetings or taking part in elections.

By the way, if anyone knows of a pro-life, pro-family labour union...I sincerely beg you to correct me here....... Here’s a hint to aid you in your search. Unions could never, and can’t exist without the minimum tools of extortion, criminal acts, and violence in their repertoire.

Good cannot be evil, and evil cannot be good. Catholics cannot be in good-standing and not in good-standing at the same time. The World or ‘Nation’ never trumps God for any reason.
The greatest Catholic political victory would be the one where not one Catholic votes for a pro-abortion party especially through a self-called pro-life candidate.

So, support the pro-abortion party with your self-proclaimed pro-life candidate, whose only with the pro-abortion party, for the environment, or socialist free goods and services plan du jour, (yeah right, like it wouldn’t be because it is the best chance of getting elected and retiring with a handsome pension and no pro-life measures advanced for another four years), or your no- bones but, at least honest pro-abortion candidate....but don’t say you weren’t warned, more likely and more important..... you never had to be warned...just didn’t want to admit it.

Ontarians Tax and Marxist Palov Masochists

Ontarians Tax, and Pavlov Masochists
Or, More Taxes Please, We're from Ontario

Leave it to Ontario to get everything back-a-wards.

Our flower (not allowed to pick) is the trillium. Our flag is...don’t know..care less. Our animal...dittos (hey, I’ve only lived here fifty years)

But our liberal Marxist rallying call in tribute to the ruling, chattering class is something to behold in the splendour of idiocy.

It goes, tax us plenty, micro-manage our behaviour, and penalize us like the Pavlov dogs we are, when we waver from the straight and narrow, political correctness or environmental cause du jour.

The only environmental issues even worth attention are air (breathing) quality, and water quality. On those two issues, smog has been a problem since the 50's and the world hasn’t ended yet. I haven’t come across too many cesspool lakes in Ontario that used to qualify as a lake and that are devoid of all life form.

Garbage can be burned cleanly and efficiently with stack scrubbers etc.
The only consensus ( aka opinion- not scientifically proven or predicted) is among leftist liberal scientists whose celebrity is only possible and fed by the leftist media and academic establishment.

It’s this chattering class of Marxist high paid working professionals who set the standard and keep up with the politically correct Jones on all fronts. Worse, they include the academic teachers now more heavily controlled by government than ever, who perpetuate environmental propaganda on to the generations, dated back to post war days when Marxists took over academia.

Instead, of paying for all their hair-brained schemes out of their own pockets they get people of lower incomes to pay for the bulk of ‘save the earth’ costs. As side casualties, North American business’s, jobs and economy suffer because China and countries south of California don’t play by the same rules, and who can blame them for following the money not the environment Nazis.

So in Ontario now, it doesn’t matter how large your family is, you had better not produce more than two garbage bags a week, to be collected every second week or you’ll have to pay above your municipal taxes to deal with it yourself.

Of course, in areas like townhouse complexes this means an odour, bug and rodent problem but the Ministry of Health has other agendas on the fire, that they were never mandated for, like ‘expelling’ kids from school for not taking the latest immune system ‘crap- shoot’ needle, invented by no flies on us, over- charging drug companies.

For space purposes, and fast-forwarding to the latest. The Liberal (gone mad) Ontario government now wants to purchase ‘Bullfrog’, (bull-something) power from a supplier that only uses wind and solar power to power Ont. with an estimated (so-know doubt low-balled) whopping 37 percent, Or 37 dollars on the hundred, Or all most times ½ of your present bill.

I can see where they just had an environmental policy leaker arrested by the RCMP yesterday.

How many people would like to buy into five or more year locked in plans knowing of the kind of electricity bills the government expects them to squeeze out. That is, in addition, to the pay-back the debt present additional charges they now pay for past political indiscretions that led to the expensive mess we now suffer.

It’s only lower income people who will be forced to pay more of what ever’s left of their take-home pay for electricity or more likely, have to turn off the fans and window air conditioners.

Now, the government is visiting your nearest grocery store, again, (in between convenience store and gas station stops - like that was ever their mandate or purpose and only voters perpetuate).

They want to ‘reward’ you for bringing your own plastic bags or penalize you for not doing so, and they promising to outlaw them altogether, (along with the light bulb), regardless, (as part of the two-year Stalinist master plan) in the near future.

And who gave guys like David Suzuki, darling environmental nut- guru, of Canada the power to set the rules for how we run our lives, to pick our pockets while he drives his bus across Canada
and to set the agenda and priorities of governments that are supposed to serve the people not control and micro-manage them.

What the Heck is wrong with this picture? And it sure ain’t me.
Professionals, and politicians, of one of two political parties mutually inclusive with government, not good government who want to be elected by the chattering class don’t care about the little guy, or the environment, just feel good or comforting control, and power.
