Hi Jay (Mr. Nordenstrom),
Thx 4 making that copy of my News Communiqué 4 me: that very nice
+ very gentlemanly of U.
As requested, I'm sending it 2 U the News Communiqués as an attachment.
What is exciting is the Egalité Party platform that advocates
1. a "guaranteed annual revenue" so people like students in financial
__need can at least pay their rent and buy food;
2. FREE post-secondary education;
3. forgiveness of student loans.
I believe that post-secondary students and those in financial need
are used as "scape-goats" by the those in the System who (mis)spend
like drunken sailors + bilk the System 4 their personal pleasure and
profit as testified by the annual provincial + federal Auditor's Report.
A letter of mine was published in the high-tech magazine, "InfoSystems
Executive", April 2001 edition, page 7, "The waiting game is over", in
which I suggest that the government only keep those 5% of their 1,600
programmes that figure already on the Net + get rid of the rest, the
dead wood.
Canadians have choice to make as to where Government dollars
should be directed or redirected.
Should the Government keep "crooked" public servants? Should
the Government allow outdated programmes to continue?
The SAVINGS generated from a "CLEAN GOVERNMENT" whose programmes
are FEW BUT EFFECTIVE could easily be redirected in2 FREE post-secondary
education + a guaranteed annual revenue program which would be a real
boon for the economy as people in financial need spend rather than save.
Why FREE post-secondary education? The jobs are NO LONGER there for
university graduates as in the past. In the '60's + early '70's "a" university
degree guaranteed "anyone" a GOOD PAYING job. Today, that is NOT so.
I have FIVE university degrees and almost FOUR others and it very difficult
4 me 2 get a job.
Should university students come out of university BURDENED with a HEAVY
DEBT and have 2 postpone getting married and perhaps have to declare
"personal bankruptcy" and RISK depression and nevous breakdown by a
System that is acting "criminally".
I should point out to U that the current social assistance programme whereby
an individual is ONLY entitled to a MAXIMUM of $520 a month to live on is
according to Article 228 of the Criminal Code "criminal negligence" described
as "the killing of the mind" or "contributory negligence" the equivalent to an
"intentional act of homicide" especially when one takes in2 account the fact
that the Government has a "fiduciary responsibility" to take care of its citizens.
The insufficient amount contravenes Article 7 of the Charter of Rights whereby
the Government is responsible for the "safety" of its citizens and Article 12
whereby the Government is obliged to protect its citizens from "cruel and
unusual punishment". In short, the Government is NOT respecting the Rule
of Law and is acting in a criminal capacity.
Is that serious?
What do U think?
Should post-secondary students be DRAINED by a criminally bound public
System?
The ONLY ONES that benefit from the current System are those who are
"WELL OFF ALREADY" and have ALREADY a job upon graduation thanks
to the connections of their families.
As for the others it is almost a game of roulette IF they'll be able to get a
good enough paying job to be able to EVENTUALLY pay off their student
debt.
THE GOOD NEWS is that it does NOT have 2b this way.
It's all a matter of SOCIAL PRIORITIES.
Should Society treat its BRIGHTEST as FOOLS and PENALIZE THEM
4 being more intelligent that the majority? Does that make sense?
As an aside, I suspect at Carleton U. there is "heavy electronic surveillance"
of the student population. At least that was the impression when I was there.
It is just something to be aware of and what is worst I don't think the students
are told: SNEAKY, if that is the case.
I hope get a chance 2 ready the Égalité Party platform: I believe it's a GOOD
READ.
Perhaps, Carleton U will have Canada's first Égalité Party student club. (Ha! Ha!)
Best wishes,
Ken
P.S.: I singlehandedly got the Union in on Parliament Hill after working
nine (9) years at the Senate of Canada.
P.P.S.: Where there is financial abuse by the Government there is in my
opinion the "sexual exploitation" of women from what I can see and I
believe the number group responsible for the abuse have been the
Freemasons since the inception of Canada and I suspect these are
the guys also running Carleton U in2 the ground. Interestingly, my wife
was a victime of sexually exploitation at the Rebab here in Ottawa. When
I told her to lay criminal charges her boss, the Royal Ottawa, had me
incarcerated 4 a 30 -day psychiatric evaluation. It's unfortunate that
she had to choose between keeping her job and keeping her marriage.
Needless to say, her boss had her make the right choice as she could
easily see to it in my opinion have half a dozen Rehab employees placed
behind bars for sexual exploitation. By the way, there was a strip tease
joint nearby, the Den, within a 15 minute walk from there. Guess who
went to the Den at noon? Ottawa Hospital and Rehab employees. The
Den has since moved a bit further away. <grin> Did U no that the most
decorated Viet Nam veteran ran a brothel and never saw action in the
field and he was a reporter during the Desert Storm War back in 1991.
Let's have "CLEAN" Government + a HEALTHY society where everyone
is safe and does NOT have to fear DESTITUTION.
P.P.P.S.: U and I both have Scandinavian names: congrats!
