When Will The Crowning Begin

It would be funny or pathetic if it were not true. During the last weeks, official letters came from the Prime Ministers Office declaring that from now on people referring to the Government of Canada will refrain from that official name and instead call it the Harper Government. This means all departments and agencies of our government will now begin using this title. For those who think this is a prank just phone your member of parliament and seek the truth. This label gives free advertising for the party in power. How ridiculous.

There has been a steady but calculated move on the part of this government to stiffle the press and stage all information that comes from the PMO. Never in Canadian history has there been such attacks on the fifth estate and the Canadian people. A systematic clearing and axing of nearly every agency which disagrees with the PM has caused many to feel frustrated and angry.

Our country is doing quite well in the economic sphere because we, like the oil rich countries, suddenly realize that oil is power.With the oil coming from the west there has been a move to ursurp the influence from the engine of economic wealth in central Canada and move it to Alberta.This government has broken faith with the world in so far as environment issues and the latest is the scandel about asbestos again.

When the Canadian Government cut or eleminated agencies to try to balance the budget it increased the lobbying agencys budget to protect the asbestos industry in Quebec. Against all odds in the world and the Canadian Cancer Societies objections, backed by world science experts, this PM insists that there is no danger in the use of asbestos..I feel that living in one of the most enlightened countries in the world I am embarrassed and angered over such ridiculous policies.

Clearly the normal citizen does not realize what is going on but our representatives surely do. They should be speaking up to protect our integry in the eyes of the world or are they simply going to play dead and wait for the crowning of King Harper.
