The Insanity Continues

News item #: The ADQ wants Harper to enshrine the nationhood of Quebec into the constitution. Leaving aside the fact that Quebec did not, and has not, signed the Constitution; why should Canada do this? What is Dumont's agenda here? If Harper does this to get some votes in Quebec, will the rest of the provinces go along with it?

News item #2: The National Chief of the AFN wants to open talks with Harper on reconciliation of aboriginal status with the rest of Canada What does that mean? Does Fontaine want aboriginals to become full fledged taxpaying Canadians with no less that the privileges and responsibilities of Canadian; but no more?

News item #3: While storm sewers, connected to sanitary sewers, continue to overflow in Ottawa, dumping raw sewage into the Ottawa River; while roads are crumbling and the city finances are in a shamble; the National Capital Commission (NCC), the federal commission which owns half of the city, wants to build a "grand entrance", for millions of dollars, to welcome people driving in from Quebec.

It's all insane!

True enough. So kind of you to notice. I was in the west restocking my barrels with anti-Redneck ammo. Will be posting soon.
