Harper does not have to consult them, on the pollution of the Enbridge pipeline, nor the dirty oil tankers from China, on their lands, nor their waters. I think there will be, one hell of a blow-up over this one.<br /><br />BC Mary posted an excellent article, on the subject.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-41679399294953165772011-10-10T11:34:18.713-07:002011-10-10T11:34:18.713-07:00It is the gigantic corporations, that have all of ...It is the gigantic corporations, that have all of the money which, they are now just sitting on. Therefore they call all of the shots. Politicians are merely their mouthpieces.<br /><br />Greedy politicians accepted money from the big company's and were obliged that, their political party favor the big boys, they took the money from.<br /><br />BC has vast natural resources, which the people don't benefit from. Campbell thieved and sold our BCR. He thieved and sold our rivers, and now ruined the salmon runs. Dirty diseased fish farms are also killing our salmon off.<br /><br />BC citizens won't even get the jobs from our natural resources. <br /><br />Americans wins the BC contracts and bring their own people. China is giving their people, crash courses in English and Canadian mining. They will work our coal mines. <br /><br />The seven mines going into Northern BC, could be American owned or perhaps Chinese owned, they will no doubt bring their own miners.<br /><br />The smelter tear down in Kitimat, is an American contract, and brought their own workers.<br /><br />BC ship building contract, if won, will be an American company SeaSpan. They too could bring their own ship builders.<br /><br />The Enbridge pipeline have their own workers. The dirty oil tankers, give no BC people jobs. China owns a big chunk of the tar sands. Don't be too surprised, if and when Canadian workers retire or move on, those jobs will be filled by the Chinese.<br /><br />These natural resources are in our province, on our lands and oceans. Neither Christy nor Harper have lifted a finger, to protect Canadian jobs. Our jobs are being given to foreigners.<br /><br />BC province and the people, do not owe, Harper, Christy, Enbridge, Alberta nor China our province, to be invaded by them. The Campbell/Clark, the BC Liberals and Harper, have stolen enough from us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-21632718639931732012011-10-10T11:18:33.639-07:002011-10-10T11:18:33.639-07:00Grant,I think that ordinary working people in this...Grant,I think that ordinary working people in this Province are tapped out and running in the red every month because of the Organized Crime in this Province whom pass themselves off as Government (BC Liberals). As custodians of the future of the citizens of this Province they have proven to be both inept and corrupt.I believe that the reason that Chrusty didn't call an election is because the BC Liberals know they're toast and they wouldn't be able to finish the plan of pushing the ordinary people of BC into a fiscal abyss never to see daylight again.<br /><br />Further to my point of being tapped out the BC Liberals also know that every British Columbian needs out of necessity electricity as they use it in every aspect of daily life. They also know that Hydro is an endless milk cow as far as extorting money out of the citizens because people will cut back on everything else before they finally allow the lights to go out. Personaly, my family and I have done everything we can think of to reduce our use of Hydro but our Hydro bill has gone up at least 20% in the last year alone. We heat our house with a woodstove and are on the averaging plan, in twelve months our monthly bill went from an average of $160 to $210 without any change in our habits ( my last bill on the daily average comparison for Sept it went from 29 kwh to 79 kwh, there is no way my use of electricity increased 2 and a half times over the same period over last year so I proceeded to frantically check all around my house for the power cord that someone had plugged in and was using, to no avail). Our Family are your average middle income and if we are feeling the heat of high Hydro rates what are low income and seniors supposed to do? Now Chrusty wants everyone to subsidize Corpoprations for their Hydro, I say fuck 'em this is the final straw, it's time to take our Province back through any means possible.

All over the world the corporates are predicting doom and gloom why?<br />Here in B.C. we are told that we must capitalize on asian trade or lose when the clear mind realizes just the opposite that if we believe that crap and fund these shenanigans we lose. To me it looks like a lose,lose situation for the people with possible billions for the corporations. They certainly aren't pointing out any pros to the people side.<br />And what of our province, the decimation of our ecology and our very pride as working self productive people?<br />This is totally skewed and designed for their benefit not the people of British Columbia.<br />We must rid ourselves of these bloodsuckers asap. and reclaim our manufacturing,industry and diverse ecology for the good of the people. They will destroy all we have for a few pennies and leave our children in desperation.<br />It is too much for a sane mind to accept that an entire world can collapse in a few short years and we must resort to these desperate measures to survive this, someone is smoking too much hash!<br />DonDon F.noreply@blogger.com
