Our liberal MP wades into the fray, rolls up his sleeves and doesn’t judge. He is comfortable with disinfranchised poor people (who usually don’t vote).

My big C friends eyes glaze over when poverty law issues come up (with one exception).

I cannot tar and feather all conservatives with the same brush. After Garth Turner’s expulsion though, it is getting harder and harder to appreciate the converative party. They live in the dark ages, the era when there was a middle class and poverty was a blip on Canada’s radar.

Why is he lying when this professing evangical PM promised an open government? Because he is a control freak and powerful. And absolute power corrupts.

I stick to my guns on this one. Garth Turner, who isn’t a evangelical has been honest and open in his blog. Maybe the PM doesn’t like criticism of his policies or anyone in his ‘circle’ discussing his policies openly. The last time I checked this country was a democracy, not a dictatorship. What are the Conservatives trying to hide?

So far they have axed programs that benefit our first nations people. They caved in on the softwood lumber deal, knowing full well what the future held for that beleagered industry. They ignored the Kyoto accord, preferring to go with Harper’s weaker agenda. The poor are once again being pushed aside by the Conservative party.

Nope, you can’t tell me the PM didn’t know. The party just didn’t want the public to know the truth behind the power.

Harper wants to ‘distance’ himself from his evangelical roots. Is McVety part of that?
