he talks about more too, stuff like; unanswered questions from MPs directed to the PM, the income splitting "tax break", abolishing benefits to veterans, non existent canada action plan which we're still seeing ads for, bills being passed in bulk packages.
i know this is just one person's view, but his show is on CBC and he's not siding with the government. this alone is enough for me to pause and listen. and i've heard enough to want harper the fuck out |
Not saying this clip in particular is a hoax/fake/lie/... but just because the CBC is government owned does not mean it is not biased. From what i've noticed since I moved back here, CBC is against Harper, look at the analysis they do as the debates go on, the content (that I have viewed) is against Harper/Conservatives.
One thing I am concerned about the conservatives is the "FIPA canada-china agreement", what I understand is that this deal was made behind closed doors, and apparently it gives China power to sue Canada for any law they pass that may affect China's economy. I might be wrong, but this is what i get from that, if let's say our government decides to lower taxes (or any other kind of advantage) for factories, well they can't because that could affect China's economy. Which to me seems to make it very hard to create jobs in a situation like this. Also seems we have a similar deal with US (and Mexico I believe) but we can cancel the agreement withing a month or so, where as with China (FIPA) we have 28+ more years before we get out of it (32 year agreement). I am not certain of a positive side of such agreement unless it applies also to China
Do not quote me as this is information i have recently gathered, and continue to do so. Those who know more than me please correct me and inform us all
In the end I believe it's all about doing your own research and making your own mind, by taking every information you find with a grain of salt
