Let's Leave our kids to defend themselves against coyotes, its more important to change O Canada to be gender neutral

O Canada, our home and native land.

True paitrot love in all your coyotes command.

With glowing hearts we see them roam

The true north wild and free.

We stand on guard o canada to protect our young from Coyote

As you may have guessed, the opposition party does not like the word sons in

our anthem but has no problem letting coyotes run wild in our school yards and

attack pets in our backyards.

If you would like to let the government know that our kids safety is important join the protest here:

Bribes for education jobs?

Save the environment and pay the school boards $10 each for the privilege to apply for a position in their board.

The School Board is currently using Apply To Education to recruit for Non-Teaching candidates and post jobs.

If you are interested in applying as a for the
Board, please ensure you apply to the posting on
http://www.applytoeducation.com. Applicants are encouraged to sign up for the "Job Alert" feature on applytoeducation.com to be emailed when we post jobs. The
Board is no longer accepting hard copies of resumes.

Is this the new face of government job postings? Pay us your tax dollars to support our schools, and large screen tvs that you steal from budgets then if you want to work for us pay us $10 for the privilege to apply for a position.

Not that this is per school board per applicant per year. Now how many government departments are there. $10 per department per person applying would add up to millions of dollars in government revenue. That is a lot of green for the government.

If you would like to see the real numbers I suggest this election you ask your MP to tell you the truth of where this money is going.

The sad thing is that someone out of work has a choice of applying for a position with the school board or eating. Something to ponder as we head towards an October election.

I would love to hear government or school board members defend charging people to apply for jobs.

So Who Wants A Fall Election?

Regardless of whether you want it or not you are getting it. It is a waste of money to
have so many elections but the government, no matter who is in will waste money any
chance they get.

Anyways, enough of the rant we are stuck with an election so let's make the best of it.
As the campaign heats up, keep an eye on this blog as we will be tallying up all the mud slinging
and any dirt we can drag up on both sides. It is only fair that both sides get dirted not just the leading party.

As well as the mud, we will be logging the real issues and what each party is saying or not saying they will do about them. You will be hearing a lot about the economy and the environment. You will hear of corruption at various Government agencies, about how the garbage crisis was handled. Possibly even the meat scare, but what about the real issues.

Stay tuned for information on what the parties think in the real issues like:

1) Education costs
2) Real transit spending
3) Assisting industries that are here and hiring to succeed and grow.
4) How about properly labeling goods as Canadian. Eg. Cellered in Ontario wine does not mean the grapes are Canadian.

Please take a look at some of the articles on these other blogs that bring some of the issues to light:

• For Transit take a look at:

  2. Ed Drass's Column in the Metro


• For Issues with Canadian Labeling and supporting canadian products take a look at: http://supportcanadiangoods.blogspot.com/

  If you have issues you would like to see addressed by the parties email them to Susan Fischer at susan@clinchportal.com or post the comments here and we will be sure they get sent off to the proper leaders.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Should Toronto Privatize Garbage Pickup?

With the ongoing garbage strike and striking workers doing lots to piss off citizens, like kicking a soccer ball at some guys car and punching it breaking his mirror. The union denies that the incident happened but the guy did get a phone call appologizing for the incident (This was in the July 16, 2009 Metro Paper).

Also the limiting on number of bags and slowing down people from dropping off garbage. Many citizens are paying companies to pick up their trash for them to avoid the hassle.

The city really needs to think about it. The union is treating its customers poorly and even on days they are not on strike, they arrive for garbage pickup when they want to, sometimes late in the evening. Are they getting overtime for this?

I find it very interesting how private health care which is a life critical service but are afraid to privatize garbage collection because we are afraid of the unions. Its crazy.

Here is an article about the same issue:

An Olive Branch from Mars brings peace to Earth

It looks like Susan Fischer is up to her predictions again. She had a vision of life on mars being
found by the end of the year.

Read her dream here:

Bell sneaks a Virgin

Well sort of. I am not sure many people realized that BCE owned a good state in Virgin Mobile, well now its taking the entire Virgin Mobile for itself. The issue here is that Virgin was supposed to break down the corporation, provide fairness and a balance to mobile in Canada. It is kind of bananas.

Oh well, the beginning of the end for them I guess as easy going and fun become big corporate slowness. So much for fun mobile but wait there is light at the end of the tunnel there is koodo but wait, are they not owned by Telus?

I look forward to your comments on our Canadian Mobile Version of OPEC.

On another note, it seems some Albertans have been kissing pigs and now there are cases out there. Susan Fischer predicts that the B1N1 flu scam outbreak which she is calling the (banana flu) will surface in full force by the end of the year so beware. The Nebraska BBB is already warning people of its dangers.

Stormageddon - Susan Fischer's releases Chloros Guild

Its a fun time of year, Christmas and all. There are three news items I would like to present as your daily dose.

Stormageddon in Toronto is a collection of storm fronts that will meet on December 19, 2008 and over the course of 72 hours produce 40 cm of snow in Toronto. The last time this happened Mel Lastman called in the military with flamethrowers. It was an eerie feeling at the Go Station this morning as I got a parking spot in the second row when normally the lot was half full by then. As the train passed the gardiner express way, it was clear too. Its amazing how it was not that long ago that 40 cm was not that much snow but I guess its all relative. Yesterday in Las Vegas they got 9 cm of snow and shut down the airports.

Speaking of storms, Susan Fischer has released a blog that is surely to be taken by storm or at least she will cause a lot of people to storm with anger or fury or passion. Her new blog is about ways to get back to basics. About small things we can do, some that we used to do, that could divert further damage to our environment. It all started with a dream she had. But why should I spoil all the fun. Visit her as she and other members of PRET guest on her blog at:
http://chlorosguild.blogspot.com/

Speaking of Armageddon, Hillary Duff released a song featuring the sample from Personal Jesus.
The song goes on the say that we should reach out and touch her. If this is not a sign of the end times I don't know what is. Check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JStfziF4duQ&eurl=http://www.side-line.com/news_comments.php?id=38177_0_2_0_C&feature=player_embedded
