He will never become the defender and teacher of individual rights and liberty that he could have been.<BR/>... Ayn Rand could have written a great novel about Mr. Harper- a man who listened to those who advised compromising all his values, in an attempt to be liked by all... only to end up rejected by all.<BR/>... Now is the time to search for the rising of a true conservative leader.Iain G.

I cannot believe the PMSH and the CPC would permit this. <BR/><BR/><BR/>I am trying to take comfort in the fact that, as Ezra points out, this was initiated by the libs when they were in power, but I would have thought that our Justice minister would have at least put a lid on things. <BR/><BR/>If this is the true position of the CPC, then I no longer see any merit in supporting this party. I know the libs are worse, but it's worse when it comes from people you thought you could trust. <BR/><BR/>I will be sending a letter to the party and to Mr. Nicholson, and if the response is not satisfactory, I will be resigning from the party. <BR/><BR/>To me, this is the only significant current political issue. All else is a rehash of old partisan argument. But the free speech / HRC is the first new major societal/political matter to arise in my recent political memory, and to have the CPC either ignore it, or come on the wrong side of it, is devastating.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
