Harper continues to Abuse Government of Canada Websites: Tory Platform aka "Budget 2011" gets a free ride at taxpayer expense

First go see the official Government of Canada Finance website. See how prominently the Tory election platform is displayed? No surprise really. After all what would you expect of serial abusers like Harpo & Co who believe, in their heart of hearts, that the public purse is there to be raped for partisan purposes. See here also.

Fact is "No Confidence" Harpo and his band of contemptuous usurpers will leave this free advertising up for as long as they can get away with it. In my calls to members of the Public Service at the Finance Department today it was acknowledged that "somebody had brought this up this morning" - but as of yet they have had no clear directive to take the shameless partisan items down. They are awaiting guidance. Needless to say, Flaherty's minions at Finance will wait until the last possible moment to abide by the law before making a change.

Following my conversation with a poor and clearly besieged conscientious public servant (whose tone, if not words, conveyed awareness that this abuse is not proper), I then phoned CBC "Power & Politics" to convey my concern. A nice gent named Greg took my message and promised to forward it on... well let's see what Evan Solomon and Co. do with it today. Or like so many other blatant examples of the "Harper Government" abuses of Government of Canada websites will it fall through the cracks of the election cycle spin?

Bottom line, Harpo & Co. know this is wrong. The "Budget 2011" was never debated, it was never passed and it is NOT Canadian Government policy... why? Because his government was found in CONTEMPT for this very sort of behaviour. Enough is enough, no more taxpayer dollars for their partisan agenda.

"The Bruinooge Report": A Hamster's Delight

Oh freaking happy day!

Here in South Winnipeg my copy of Tory MP Rod Bruinooge's "Parliamentary Report" has arrived in the mail.

Whew! And here I was worried I would have nothing to line our Tory's cage with this week.

You see, "Tory" (our pea-brained shit-eating hamster) likes having the "Bruinooge Report" placed under its shavings.

A pleasant departure from the regular facile offerings of the Winnipeg Free Press, it gives our rodent something different to dig up and read during its downtime. The fact that our beloved four legged rodent then proceeds to gleefully crap all over the content of the "Bruinooge Report" is, I am sure, merely a coincidence. But I have to say, "Tory" does seem happier when he has Bruinooge's partisan pablum to keep him company.

If nothing else, at least Rod's 17" x 11" eight paged dark blue-hued offering is good for something: it improves the quality of life of our caged animals.
