Think Hard,Do You Really Want Jack Layton as PM?

Chris Selley from the National Post gives insight into who Jack Layton really is.  
 Mr. Layton cut his political teeth on the streets of Montreal at the height of the separatist movement in 1970. He was a member of the Front d’Action Politique (FRAP), a left-wing, grassroots municipal party opposed to autocratic mayor Jean Drapeau. FRAP went so far as to endorse the FLQ manifesto, though it did object to the FLQ’s tactics. You know, the whole terrorism thing.
Mr. Layton, too, was appalled by the violence. But he attributes his NDP awakening to Pierre Trudeau’s decision to send in the tanks — something he was “inclined to go along with” until Tommy Douglas protested on behalf of Quebecers’ civil liberties. “I said to myself, that’s a very unpopular position this NDP leader is taking,” Mr. Layton wrote in his 2004 book, Speaking Out. “Still, as I listened to his powerful arguments and his brilliant capacity to deliver them, I realized that this unpopular stance was right.”
But it’s not just that Mr. Layton has always understood Quebec, and had mingled with its nationalists and radicals. As recently as 2003, as Michel Vastel reported in L’Actualité, Mr. Layton was deliberately gladhanding amongst Bloc- and Parti Québécois-friendly organizations, and developing the hybrid nationalist/federalist rhetoric that Canadians now hear on the campaign trail.
A party obsessed with minority rights now supports extending Bill 101 language laws to cover workers in Quebec under federal jurisdiction. A staunchly centralist party now supports devolving powers to Quebec. Mr. Layton’s support for the Clarity Act has never been warmer than tepid; of late, he’s been declaring nothing stronger than a general preference for a “No” vote in a referendum.
and this:
Centrist, he was not. In 1983, he endorsed a socialist manifesto put forward by the New Democrats’ left caucus, which called for “public ownership of the decisive sectors of the economy”; “massive public works programs and a shorter work week for the same take-home pay”; “free, universal access to all levels of education from day care to university”; and “immediate withdrawal from NATO … and NORAD.”
As a councillor, he criticized police raids on gay bathhouses. As chair of the Board of Health, he took up the AIDS cause. He opposed the city’s Olympic bid, spending taxpayer money on what would eventually become SkyDome, and commercial developments in the downtown railway lands that, he said, would benefit fat cat developers. (“People are tired of glitzy condos, fancy domes and more limousines,” he said in 1988.) He was against Sunday shopping, because 1980s society provided more than a week’s worth of crass commercialism in six days.
Mr. Layton was not above some pointless left-wing symbolism. He wanted to make Toronto “gun-free.” He insisted the city adopt a nuclear non-proliferation stance, and was chairman of the city’s Peace Committee. In 1989, he supported a move to have Toronto adopt Volgograd as a twin city — and responded to critics at a City Council meeting by comparing Soviet human rights abuses to those perpetrated by Canada against aboriginals. Some in attendance suggested he move to Russia.
How can anyone want this man running this country? I certainly do not! This man is DANGEROUS!  A radical quasi-separatist it seems who wants to spend us into oblivion and destroy Canada in the process. 

JACK LAYTON MUST NOT BE ALLOWED ANYWHERE NEAR THE REINS OF POWER!!!!   DON"T LET THAT SMILE FOOL YOU!!!

Think long and hard.  The only way to do that since the Liberals are sinking ship is to VOTE FOR A CONSERVATIVE MAJORITY ON MAY 2!!!!!!

Why Blue Liberals Should Vote Conservative

I believe common sense Blue Liberals should vote for a Conservative majority. . Here's why   In recent weeks it seems like the Orange Crush is crushing the Big Red Tent leaving it almost impotent.  The Orange Crush NDP overtaking the Libs could actually end up governing.  That should alarm Blue Liberals. Even if Libs end up being part of a coalition. It will be Jack Layton and the NDP at the mercy of the Bloc who will be calling the shots.  The NDP platform if implemented would devastate the economy and open the door to a real national unity crisis that create such instability we might not ever recover.  I believe these Liberals love their country and do not want to see it destroyed.  A Conservative majority would continue with our economic recovery and offer stability.

Secondly a Conservative majority would give the Liberal party four years to rebuild to be a real contender again. It would actually be healthy for Liberals.  They could develop new ideas put them into policy, find a strong credible leader, and create a solid fund raising mechanism.

I'm appealing to those fair minded Blue Liberals  to put the country first and at least this time and vote for a stable Conservative majority. You are good and sensible people.   Please think hard and long before casting that ballot.  The fate country is in your hands.  Stephen Harper is not the bogeyman. He's not going turn Canada into a Theocracy. He's not going reverse a woman freedom to choose or reverse gay marriage.  He's done a pretty good job in sheltering us from the great recession and only has the good of the country at heart. Jack Layton will turn us back big time! Lastly remember this is not Canadian Idol!

The Real Reason Why Jack Layton Wants To Open the Constitution

Oh,it seems like Jack has a hidden agenda. Jack has been saying he would open up the constitution to allow Quebec to be a part of it.  Low and behold it seems that the reason he wants to open up the constitution is so that he can implement his job killing, economy kneecapping cap and trade program because with out opening the constitution up, cap and trade is apparently unconstitutional.   It would also break up the country at the same time.
A carbon quota regime would operate much the same way as does our national dairy quota regime, except Canada’s dairy quota limits only our combined milk, butterfat and cheese production, imports and sales. Under the single umbrella of the national carbon quota regime, a national commission will limit and politicize Canadians’ rights to produce, import, consume or export fossil-fuel derived energy, building products (cement, aluminum, iron and steel, wallboard and other pulp and paper-based products, etc.), fertilizers, industrial chemicals, grains and beef.
The existence of such a commission will eviscerate the powers assigned to the provinces in our current Constitution, forever.
For this reason, the federal government imposition of cap and trade regulation without the full support and prior approval of all of the covered provinces is most likely unconstitutional. The Liberals and NDP promise to impose such a quota system over provincial markets if, with or without Bloc support, they hold sway over the House of Commons. This would inevitably throw Canada into a protracted, costly and economically damaging constitutional crisis from which, I am afraid, the nation might never recover. Of course, this is also why it would make perfect sense for the Bloc to support any proposed federal cap and trade regulation.
                                 **************************************
The commitment to a federal carbon quota regime in both the Liberal and NDP election platforms presents almost unprecedented danger to Canadian unity. And, yes, the Bloc and their friends in the PQ must love it.
There you have it.  We would be in such a mess to likes that we have never seen before and probably never recover from.
This cannot be allowed to happen.Everything we buy  will go up dramatically in price.  The country will be in turmoil.
From my heart I plead with my fellow Canadians, please, please, think hard and long before you cast that ballot.   This country is about to be destroyed if Jack Layton is allowed anywhere near the reins of power. 
Please, there is not much time left.  Inform your friends,neighbors, relatives, co-workers.  Spread word!
Unless we vote for a Conservative majority, we will quickly see Canada go down the tubes.

What Could Happen If Jack Becomes PM

Jack Layton could very well become PM next week.  For Canada it would be  a travesty. Jack would transfer the wealth. He would shut down the oil sands, raise the corporate tax rate up to 19%, impose a job killing carbon tax. Basically he would rape western Canada and give the proceeds to Quebec and special interest groups.  It would cause economic chaos.  Look what has happened  in the US with President Obama.  That would happen here too. 

In fact the whole country would suffer in more ways than one. We  would go further into debt and deficit that would bankrupt the country. Any province who has had an NDP government knows what it's like.  It's been a disaster.  With Jack Layton at the helm it would be a disaster all over the country.

In order to stay in power Jack would give Quebec the moon  and force all federal public employees to speak French that includes the Supreme Court Justices.  Well qualified individuals namely from the west would most likely be excluded. 

Many westerners will not want see their province  be raped by likes of the socialists and go down the tubes to spread the wealth especially to Quebec. They've gotten enough already.

If Canadians don't WAKE UP, I believe you will see western separatism rise up like you've never seen before . Unlike Quebec that uses it just as a  threat for blackmail, western Canada namely Alberta would actually act. There will a national unity crisis. Even the PQ in Quebec said just a couple of weeks ago first they want to see a weak government in Ottawa, then they would win the provincial election, then referendum.

As  a western Canadian from Alberta, I cannot sit idly by and allow this to happen. We don't have to end up with that kind of a situation. there is still  time left so get out there and get that Conservative majority to prevent a catastrophe.

Unity crisis, economic disaster, our military being gutted etc.  Is that what you  want?

 PM Harper and his government have done a good job the last five years.  We are the envy of the world why spoil that?  Even the Globe and Mail usually Harper Conservative hating paper is admitting that Stephen Harper is the man for the job and has endorsed the Conservatives.

CANADA WAKE UP!!!!!  Because come the morning of May 3 you may wake up to something you might not like.

A Little Reminder

Well it looks like we're into the last stretch of what seems like a very long election campaign. One week to go before we go to polls.  I'll be glad when it's over.  I thought I would remind you of a couple of things to chew on.

In the last five years of a minority Conservative government with PM Stephen Harper at the helm, they've gotten quite a few accomplishments under their belt even with all the obstacles. Sandy from Cruxofthematter has done such an awesome job putting these together.  Just think about all that could be done with a majority.

Don't forget too  that if the Conservatives fall shy of a majority next week there will most likely be a coalition of the Liberals,NDP,and the Bloc with either Jack Layton or Michael Ignatieff at the helm.  Policies that they would bring in would do Canada in. 
 
Weigh everything carefully. Don't take anything for granted.    To fellow Conservatives, make sure you all go out and do what you can to help your local candidate. There is still much work to do, it's not over yet.  Above all go out and exercise your right to vote.
