Wow! You must work for Harper. That's right out of his "little red book" .......

So, just because Canadians are a volunteer force, the ones who suffer from PTSD can "go suck"? That's sick.

Tell ya what.....let's just let the future decide who's "right".

   

You're dodging the basic fact.
If they didn't want to go, they wouldn't volunteer and they wouldn't be there.

And that's not out of Harper's play book, that's out of Chretien and Marten's because they started, supported and believed in the mission far longer that Harper has.. or did you forget that fact?

   

So that gives us licence to treat them like dirt when they get home.........? That gives us licence to make money off this war, and throw the vets who need help in the gutter?

Mulroney/Chretien/Martin/Harper may as well be clones...........

   

Jack Layton will save us from war and misery!

   

What proof do you have that our troops are being treated like dirt?

   

The Red Book was a Liberal publication. Full of nasty little surprises, like hidden taxes.

   

I find it funny that people compare us to the soviets. One key difference: most Afghans want us there(wish I could say the same for Canadians).

   

Funny you say that most Iraqi's want the Yanks there too.

   

To quote you from a previous post:

   

Like I said, just like Harper.............

   

We got new taxes? Man where are you getting this from?

   

He makes it up. Just like his claims of troops are being treated like dirt.
The only people who are treating the troops like dirt are those on the left.

   

A tax by any other name......is still a tax. I would suggest you actually do some reading.......if you are "crafty enough".

   

Only PTSD victims............
....while the right fills their pockets, walking on the skulls of the dead

   

Umm...I'm asking what the flying fuck you're talking about. We got a GST cut, and the Toronto Star (a leftist rag) went on about huge tax cuts for the wealthy and such...here

http://www.thestar.com/comment/article/272037

"With surpluses this year and next projected to average an astounding $16.5 billion, Flaherty has committed almost $5 billion to tax cuts this year and almost $60 billion in cuts over the next five years. Of this, $34.2 billion will come from cutting the goods and services tax from 6 per cent to 5 per cent. An extra $11 billion will come from personal income tax cuts, and $14.4 billion from corporate tax cuts. Also, $10 billion of this year's surplus will be used to pay down the federal debt."

Is there a tax hike that I'm missing? I'm not trying to be rude, but I want to know a real news article. I only found one from 2 years ago, which says that taxes weren't cut as much as advertised.

"The federal government's recent budget chopped personal taxes by about half as much as was advertised and actually lowered take-home pay for many Canadians, a new report by a leading economist says. The report, to be released Tuesday, says the budget will mean personal tax cuts worth about $9.5-billion over the next two years, when compared with current rates. By contrast, the government said in its first budget earlier this month that it had cut personal taxes by $19."

Now I don't really know about the take home pay, since honestly its a two year old article
