Haven't done this for a while so here goes.

the election is close, well near at hand, looks like Harper will form another government. can only hope that it is a minority one. Though no one except Elizabeth May seems to be trying. But speaking of Ms May, how does one who speaks for the Green party, talk of managing our pulp and paper industries and make them more profitable. Shouldn't she be hugging trees, not harvesting them?

Why doesn't anyone ask the question of Harper, who insists that the American economic crisis is different from the Canadian, why we continue to tie our wagon to that particular pony? If as he insists, the US is heading for a deep recession, how do we insulate ourselves when they remain our single largest trade partner? What's the plan?

Speaking of the US, they just today passed the bailout bill. Now if you were a borrower who had lost your house due to the ridiculous lending rules that prevailed, and the idiots who lent you the money with no hope of recouping their money get paid off, wouldn't you be pissed that all you got was the satisfaction that you weren't the only one who got taken? Would you be mad enough to sue the government to get your house back? mortgage free? since your indebtedness was relieved? Do I smell a class action law suit that will absolutely drive the final nail into the US ?
this could amount to trillions and trillions, when one adds the punitive damages on. All government and lenders knew that they were lending to unqualified borrowers.....

I'll get back sooner, Harper smarten up, and Stephane and Jack......do something, quick.
