Yeah...I remember holding my nose and voting for Mulroney.....whodathunk the sane would miss him. Now we have 2 billion lost in gun registry, a billion or so evaporated in HRC ministry, ex CBC hag pissing money away faster than a drunken sailor (I pray the CBC unions don't demand the same retirement package for all their employees) lost and unaccounted for billions in the Indian ministries, 4 or 5 billion more being steered to french language programs, legalizing drugs to keep organized crime from switching their vote, a completely fucked medical system, revenue canada parasites training the Cubans to collect taxes (yup, you paid for it) ......there is no end to it......

Seems to me there was an advertising company that was cozy with Mulroney that got a ton of government cash as well. As bad as the Liberals right now - I don't think so but same sort of Odor. I wonder if it really matters who gets into power. I'm aquatinted with some conservatives, who were also independent businessmen, who were trying to sign me up during a previous provincial election. It was explained to me that the way the system worked was you worked for your candidate and if he got in you would get exclusive business from the government. This guy was a carpet distributor and sure enough I know for a fact he got a big contract from a provincial crown corporation not long after the election. Is that just Canadian politics?
