Re: FIPA gives businesses confidence MR Times Nov 15 2012

Like their American Counterpart Mitt Romney and company the Conservatives still don’t get it, it was deregulation that brought  the American house of cards down and as every other country in the world knows Deregulation of the environment is economic as well as environmental suicide and is against all known scientific as well as just good old common sense. 

I have been writing for at least a decade that Canada should not put all it’s eggs in one basket and reach out to the Pacific rim countries to reduce Canada’s reliance on America almost exclusively for trade, but times were good and who is it hurting was the wisdom of the day, now we are seeing the results of that shortsightedness as our main trading partner is sick and consequently we have put ourselves in a vulnerable position, but 

I certainly do not think we have to turn over the keys to our country as well as 
Canada’s sovereignty to secure mutually beneficial trade agreements with any country let alone a Communist dictatorship. Canada has what the rest of the world needs and we don’t have to give up anything to get fair trade for our resources, the oil isn’t going anywhere, in fact it can only become more valuable in the future. 

Randy Kamp makes it quite clear that the Conservative serve the corporations and the Canadian people are little more than an inconvenience, how much confidence does business want they already have been given the lowest corporate taxes in the G7 15 percent or less than half what American business taxes are and that isn’t enough, how about all Canadians pledge a vow of fealty to ask no more for our labour than is acceptable to our masters. 

Good god how much do these Neanderthals want, when is enough enough. I will tell you when enough is enough, when Canadians are working for the same wages as the Chinese or any other third world country, and Canada for all intents and purposes is a third word country, joining all those other unfortunate resource poor countries of the world, but Canadians will still be paying $350,192 for a home, what does that tell you, your children will never own a home.

Great world vision the 1 percent with everything and all the rest of the world living in poverty.

While Corporations pay less and less and contribute less Canadians get less and less and at the same time I am paying thousands of dollars more in taxes (HST) for one, new taxes and user fees, green taxes, electronics taxes, gas taxes, environmental taxes, etc etc and at the same time they are destroying the environment, ever since the Conservatives and the BC Liberals came to power. I now pay $1,392.00 a year for MSP I pay around $50.00 dollars a month for bridge tolls (taxes) and I get to wait 76 weeks on a hospital waiting list for an operation. The unemployment rate in BC is 7.5 and our BC government let’s 70,000 illegal foreign workers earning substandard wages do Canadian jobs.  

So just who is getting all this windfall money Canada is making by selling off all our precious renewable and nonrenewable natural resources, it is a telling fact that the middle class and seniors contrary to all the propaganda are much worse off since Conservatives got power, I have to wonder where is the upside for the Canadian people.
