Because the Alternatives Cost Another $300,000,000 or Blood!
http://www.abandonedstuff.com/2008/12/02/because-the-alterna...Conservatives moaning about being legally and peacefully ousted from power after they failed to govern in a bipartisan manner, need to consider the alternatives before they call the actions of the Bloc, NDP, and Liberals “undemocratic”. 1) Another election. $300,000,000 to possibly change nothing. After the October 14 vote, how would you like to vote again on January 14th? This country isn’t a blog awards. It isn’t an online poll. It’s Canada, and our general election determined that more Canadian voters support Duceppe, Layton, and Dion than they do Harper. 2) Take over Pearson airport until you get your way, and cripple local airlines. 3) Storm the Hill. Or just leave it and hope the problems go away. 4) Vote with Harper, even if he guts minority parties and Canadian values, fails to stimulate the economy and save our environment, and let Conservatives continue to call the Liberals “weak” for abstaining from an early election. This is what happens when a bully pushes around too many people at once. The bullied finally realize that they are more powerful than the bullier, and push back! Hard! The coalition has a rally Thursday. The Conservatives chose Saturday. Let’s see who shows up in bigger numbers. I’m not putting my money on the people whose fringe members call protesters “dirty hippies”. And speaking of rallies, if you tag your Twitter tweets with #canadarally, Stephen Taylor’s RallyforCanada.ca page displays them, so you can send messages directly to the Conservative-brainwashed. The SFL sent this message out for support of the coalition: There will be a Rally on Thursday, December 4th at 7:00 pm in the Education Auditorium to show support for the Coalition government that will get us through this economic crisis. Please attend! For more information on the event, please respond to this email or contact Dave Winter at the Canadian Labour Congress at 536-7703. For more information on the Coalition check out the following website: Rally for a coalition government Where: Parliament Hill
