Hey Gord ... Good to see you in type mode again...

Most likely I haven't been in the right echo...

 -=> Quoting Gord Hannah to Rob Mccart <=-
 GH> Replying to a message from Rob McCart 1:2320/105 to Bob Ackley,

 GH> About Canadian Troops Come Home, On Thu Oct 04 2007
 
 RM> Not that we're much different..  We did have a (non-elected) woman
 RM> Prime Minister here very briefly but I try not to blame that
 RM> disaster directly on her or her gender..

  I was trying to remember Kim Campbell ... Thanks Gord.

  When I remember her, I felt like she was just a puppet...sorry she
just did not come across to me like the "Iron Lady"  Mrs. Thatcher.

 GH> First off this is coming from a social democrat (NDP) me.

  Well Gord, with our Provincial heating up, I have a problem.  I know
both the Green Party very well, better then the Liberal who I know does
lots in this area ... but then I vote NDP for my union past, as well
my best friend's dad was Donald MacDonald one of the men from the CCF
days that helped form the NDP with Mr. Lewis.    I just hope when I
do vote they can see themselves clear of the Party orders to vote
with the party and vote to represent us, as well when the party
platform sees itself clearly to represent the needs of the voter
and not those who donate and support for kickbacks later.

 GH> The biggest screw ups in Canadian Politics in the last 35 years or so
 GH> was the defeat of the Joe Clark government, Joe was a good PM and an
 GH> excellent MP (was mine for years), highly respected and at the same
 GH> token highly feared, if you were a civil servant you had best serve the
 GH> people and not be restrictive. 

But Joe thought he'd not get his minority defeated over the price
freeze and he did, to secure in history ...the shortest term.

 GH> Kim Campbell was a scapegoat plain and simple, I think she could have
 GH> made a hell of a difference in Canada, but the worst PM of all Brian
 GH> Mulroney made damned good and sure that would not happen, by decimating
 GH> the Conservatives. 

I really don't think Kim Campbell had a chance either...so we'll never
know.  Now she is out and away from the mess.

I don't want to think about Mr. Mulroney.  He wanted to make me a 
second class citizen.   He is right up there with Diefenbaker as
the two worse.

 GH> Today Stephen Harper is a very dangerous man to have in Ottawa, all
 GH> his ideas are just that ideas and based upon theories that have not
 GH> been proven to be good.

You have to love that smile Gord.   It reminds me of sicko Freddy.

 GH> Hope this helps.  Keep us posted.
 GH>
 GH> We are a fine board trying to make it better.

Well it looks like we are headed for a Federal Election.  Some
insiders here are gearing up for something, and it isn't a 
party to celebrate the Leafs not winning a single hockey game
todate....hahahahaha Leafs.

see you Gord...
