Is that a tazer in her incompetent hands and there's those glasses again just like her boss the Ottawa Rughead was told by his globalist corporate bosses to wear glasses to try to make his little beedie eyes look bigger like normal people. What a mob of treasonous pigs in Canada especially in BC, Ottawa and Alberta.<br /><br />The globalist sickos desperately want BC more than anywhere else in Canada for our resources and they want all of BC from the north border to the south border and east to west, including the land that we live on. That's why cluck's evil twin Dianne Watts, mayor of Surrey BC (and her hand-picked slate), more of Harper's little helpers has been told to do the King George Boulevard, Canada's western route from Mexico to Alaska, another of her projects (P3 again?) that she doesn't have any of our money to blow after putting Surrey into debt that can never be re-paid. It's interesting to check out Wikipedia (it's bought and paid for too) and compare Mayor Derek Corrigan of Burnaby BC's education (the best politician in Canada, likely the world) and that of Watts which is not even mentioned. Like we all know thanks to you Grant that the cluck is a university failed drop-out but Watts isn't even that. Watts unscripted is even stupider than the cluck, throwing down the mic at a meeting and walking out and yelling from the back row, all hunched down in a corner, to a speaker at her last election campaign 'debate' gong show..."Oh for god's sake" because she didn't like what he had to say which was in the interests of the people of Surrey and not corporatist pals of hers. She left immediately after the show was over completely surrounded by her 8 people slate of body guards plus. This dimwit doesn't even know (BS) that when she two-tapped her buddy AGT when he trash-talked Barinder Risode, calling her a whore, that two taps make a like. Sucking up to Watts to do business in Surrey is very profitable, especially land development and pipe work for hubby. She treated herself and her slate to iPads or whatever a few years back paid for by the taxpayers. <br /><br />We need to act and it must be fast....all of our lives are at stake here. What to do and where to start...<br /><br />I'd love to see Corrigan as premier of BC, we should be so lucky!<br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-72304313429858654922014-03-30T07:11:27.021-07:002014-03-30T07:11:27.021-07:00There is no lies being told here, by the year 2016...There is no lies being told here, by the year 2016 the lieberal bullshit will be so deep it will take a million hard working people to cover it.

During his six hours in Kiev, Harper lauded the government installed by last month’s fascist-spearheaded, US-German organized coup and conferred with its leaders, who include a half-dozen ministers from the fascist Svoboda Party.<br /><br />Harper’s claim that economic interests are not motivating the western powers—Canada among them—in the Ukraine crisis is a lie.<br /><br />...Corporations with Canadian interests aim to directly profit from the confrontation between Russia and the western powers, seeing it as a golden opportunity for Canada to displace Russian oil and natural gas exports to Europe and overcome opposition within the US to the building of the Keystone XL pipeline (which would transport Alberta tar sands bitumen to heavy oil refineries on the US Gulf Coast). <br /><br />Following last Monday’s meeting of the G-7 government leaders, Harper excitedly announced that they had decided to convene a meeting of their energy ministers to discuss how they could collaborate in the possible future imposition of sanctions targeting Russia’s energy sector. Such action would potentially open lucrative opportunities for Canadian energy companies.<br /><br /><br />http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2014/03/29/cana-m29.htmlJust for the Recordnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-30692669226790791292014-03-29T19:54:55.744-07:002014-03-29T19:54:55.744-07:00that`s very true Mr. Ghun...

Canadians be damned.<br /><br />The real plan is spelled out in the following: <br /><br />"After that, it will be necessary for the province to look offshore because employers, particularly in the LNG industry, need to be able to access specific skill sets quickly. This is where temporary foreign workers are likely to play a role, especially in the construction jobs," Byng said.<br /><br />Byng acknowledged that the controversial temporary workers program has got “a little bit of a black eye” recently.<br /><br />“There continue to be issues that percolate to the top, but the reality of it is, if we look at the projects that we’ve got going here in British Columbia, there will be a continued need and demand for access to temporary labour both from across Canada and from outside our borders,” he said. “And so you’ll most certainly see the province speaking from that perspective and working hard to ensure ... access to temporary foreign workers.”<br /><br />Immigration Minister Chris Alexander said changes to the federal program next year will bring skilled workers with job offers to Canada within six months. It will also allow British Columbia to exceed its federally-imposed quota of skilled workers that come in through the provincial nominee program," he added.<br /><br /><br />Yes, we're being bent over again.<br /><br />Damn, I've had more than enough of these bandits.Jon Ghunnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2435367521078186829.post-47873355201310356682014-03-29T15:21:39.237-07:002014-03-29T15:21:39.237-07:00And where do you suppose those 700,000 workers are...And where do you suppose those 700,000 workers are going to live?
