As a NON GM, CAW paycheque,...Thanks for sharing. <br /><br />As a NON GM, CAW paycheque, trust unit investor household, who will be fighting soon to hang onto a company pension - Thomas Mulcair can kiss our asses and lick the scum off our boots! <br /><br />By supporting CON policy and not doing their homework on the Income Trust issue, the NDP is responsible for just as much damage in this country as Harper's CONS. <br />Obviously this ass-ole doesn't get the Income Trust connection with labour policy. <br />Duh Mr. Mulcair- when foreigners, especially if the country of origin is third world and known for labour abuses, take over Canadian companies they try and bring their own country's labour policies to implement here. Now that Cdn Trusts have been threatened and so many of Brent's points about cheap assets for foreigners to take over were illustrated in 2009 - there is a threat to labour Canadian policies. <br />I don't have a specific trust example, but Mr. Mulcair can ask those dudes at Vale Inco what they think of foreign ownership. I am sure they are pissed with whoever is responsible for that 2006 decision. That decision also caused a TSE delisting ... so not good for regular Canadian investors either. <br /> <br />Same thing with the Income Trust connection to the environment. Maybe you need to send Mulcair your CAITI piece on the Income Trust / environment connection? And the recent piece on the TSX delistings / tax?<br /><br />That is if Mr. Mulcair is not too dumb to read and comprehend them. <br /><br />No idea what Mulcair's specialty in law is, but it is obviously not in the areas of Finance, the environment or labour. And it is clear the NDP doesn't give a crap about senior citizens or regular Canadian investors who want to keep their money in this country! <br /><br />This has just motivated me to officially contact the NDP and let them know we want our house off their mailing list. We should have done it years ago, accompanied with a nasty, but appropriate letter.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7141615629701321642.post-59514363245803165252010-01-15T15:44:59.568-05:002010-01-15T15:44:59.568-05:00That is absolutely shocking!
