Almost always. I believe most everything coming out of the government any longer is nothing but propaganda and spin. Of course, I also believe that there's a grain of truth in what they say (from which all propaganda originates...makes it easier for the sheep to believe, you know). That's why it's important to go to original sources as much as possible, i.e., actual bills, and other websites, i.e., the Canadian government, when appropriate (which seems to be necessary more and more often of late), to see what they are saying about the same documents referred to by this government.

That’s hilarious, but absolutely true! In a previous life here, I found the quickest way to kill a good debate was to source...THE source. I actually stopped doing it for a while because it usually brought the conversation to a complete stop (lololol). The other poster just left...not kidding. Oh, the stories :) You know me when it comes to sourcing, if it didn’t come from the horses mouth, one must assume it’s coming from the other end (lol)

I agree, but unfortunately we have this little thing called politics that keeps getting in the way of fixing the broke stuff :)
Interesting you say that.
I speak with many people in the course of my daily activities, and the overall distrust of those running this government is remarkable.
