Seems a good example of a typical news hound that glosses over important issues and just has to get on with the next issue. I suppose the reason that newspapers and the main television networks are losing viewers is because of the plethora of examples such as this. There's no credibility when so called journalists, like the weather forecasters, tell us that the sun will rise tomorrow and will then also set as well. Day in, day out. Past doesn't matter. Let's move on.<br /><br />CANADA CANNOT MOVE ON until there is a complete unveiling and rectifying of the Harper/Flaherty Income Trust Tax that fleeced savers that WERE consumers, investors that WERE integral to the continuation and development of Canadian businesses and every taxpayer that counted on their taxes being utilized for some greater good - like our social programmes such as healthcare and CPP . <br />The Income Trust 'CONTINUING BETRAYAL' by every political party, while they ACT so worked up about how to fix and dice the pension problem, without fixing the Income Trust ****up, shows just how incompetent and totally unworthy of support any of them are. <br /><br />Politicians don't fix anything - they break what they shouldn't and fix what was not broken in the first place. The media is brain dead for the most part.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
