Heh, thanks for your patience. Most Ontarions have enough of me by the second post :)
My beef is more with the established parties of Canada, particularly the Liberals, but the PC was little better. After all Mulroney had no business stirring the hornet’s net of separatism. Separatism was dead, but Mulroney needed to stick his fingers in it. Then Charest went way left of centre.
The Liberals somehow just don’t get it. They seem to believe they can bribe or spank the provinces into submission. For instance, Martin made a lot of crow of including the West. But his party seems to think like typical liberals (like Kerry and his gang). It’s enough to talk about how wonderful things will be. But its as if they cannot help themselves but to continue to screw us. Their action does not support the rhetoric. At least I find it insulting that Nova Scotia has managed offshore for eons, but us hicks in BC cannot be trusted to do the same. I emailed a talk show here in Victoria when David Anderson was on accusing the Liberals of not doing a damn thing about softwood. His response was to retrain foresters. Great. So let’s just abandon BC’s number one industry and train airplane pilots or something.
What we want is less of them. We, at least Western conservatives, don’t want bribes, don’t want federally run daycare. We just want the Liberals to stop wasting our money. And to let us have the economic freedoms enjoyed by Ontario. For instance, Wheat Boards control the wheat trade in the prairies, but Ontario farmers are free to sell into the US free market.
