CONGRATS on running!
I had your brochure come through my apartment door slot just now.
I checked out your website: CONGRATS on that too!
Mom with two children: that's GREAT!
I noticed you worked our Parliament Hill: I did too, from 1975 to 1984,
and I singlehandedly got the Union on Parliament Hill. Seven months later
and unemployed, PSAC (Public Service Alliance of Canada) called and
asked me to do my Union Steward Course for which they'd give me $50,
so I said OK. Interestingly, I was the only unemployed person doing the
course. :-D
Incidentally, I have also created my own political party to deal with political
issues that are NOT being addressed like "the sexual exploitation of women"
(the most taboo of all taboo subjects) in the parapublic/public sector most
notably in our hospitals, but also in the Armed/Police Forces and in fact,
in any Government department/agency/ministry where financial mismanage-
ment (fraud) is out of control, then there is the whole issue of the Government
-- like in every Commonwealth country -- being run by that secret all-male
society, -- those "bureaucratic gangsters" in my view -- the Freemasons,
then there is the whole issue of the Government's active policy of passive
genocide -- again in my view -- of our indigenous population. (Sure, we do
give them a little here and there, but NOT MUCH and often when it's nearly
TOO LATE.)
In my view, where we can be saving lots of money at the municipal level is
cutting into the Police Force: there's way too many cops and undercover
cops for the little bit of crime there is. The Cops and the Fireman have
a knack of doing "needless overtime". It's more money in their pockets
what do they care, right?
Interestingly, when talking about our judicial system, we have to bear in
mind all the judges including the Crown Attorneys were at one time ALL
Freemasons and most are even today: by the way I insisted that the NEW
Crown Attorney be a woman and thankfully my wish came true.
I feel strongly that our system is ONE CROOKED LITTLE SYSTEM. Just look at
our "prison population": how many of them are ex-government bureaucrats?
Very few. It's clear you can be a crook in the Government and NOT do jail
time. So GUESS WHERE MOST OF THE CROOKS ARE?
When I was in the Senate of Canada, those at the bottom, where I was,
got 3% wage increases while those higher up got double that, 6%. Why?
Add to that the fact that the money we give someone in financial need
constitutes a "criminal offence" according to Article 228 of our Canadian
Criminal Code: it's Criminal Negligence, Killing of the Mind. And it also
contravenes Articles 7 (Government promises to look after our security.)
and Article 12 (Government promises to keep us from cruel and unusual
punishment.) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Given that,
"YOU JUST KNOW" those who run Government are "CRIMINALS", right?
Then, you add to this BOILING WITCH'S BREW the fact that ONLY ONE
PROVINCE respects THE DUALITY of the Canadian Constitution and you
have a COMIC TRAGEDY where the Government clearly does NOT
respect the Rule of Law -- even when it comes to it own Constitution.
I intend to change all that though. (Ha! Ha!)
In any case, it's great to see that there are "brave women" such as
yourself who want to do their part for the Public Good: CONGRATS!
Best wishes to you, your husband, and your family,
