There must be some concrete ideas also for long time workers who lost their jobs not just the short termers. <br />I checked the Liberal site and there is nothing there.Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15662074532108569880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-50669952690533625742009-08-07T13:47:26.272-04:002009-08-07T13:47:26.272-04:00The Conservatives always do this.

Harper's Conservatives are completely out of control, they're successfully lying to the public, and the Liberals are actually trying to work with these people.<br /><br />Say what you like about the NDP -- and I know you do -- but at least the NDP and the Liberals <i>could</i> work together.ADHRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00854569640217600183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-50532428892267380162009-08-07T13:41:15.580-04:002009-08-07T13:41:15.580-04:00Jeff, you can see this is a loser, can't you? ...Jeff, you can see this is a loser, can't you? I mean, you guys whined about how those lyin' conservatives misrepresented the green shift, too. If your proposal on EI requires five minutes to describe who does and who doesn't qualify can you see how the CPC ads will crush Iggy just like they did Dion? People, and by people I mean the majority of Canadians who work for a living and aren't currently unemployed, will crap all over a turd of a policy that basically gives people an EI vacation after 9 weeks of work. If this is your election issue be prepared for a majority, just not a Liberal one.The Rathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00762317244980526077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-50613648253483696442009-08-07T11:17:37.173-04:002009-08-07T11:17:37.173-04:00iggy is talking tough again...but come fall... do ...iggy is talking tough again...but come fall... do you think he will fold his position on EI completely to avoid an election that winning conditions aren't in place for? or will he just accept a national standard of more hours than any place uses now say 1200 instead of 360 to gain insurance benefits. And claim a victory cus it was a national standard that he was demanding??Barcshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00797062032956713967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-51512839419867299522009-08-07T01:48:30.479-04:002009-08-07T01:48:30.479-04:00P.S.

Tell me media, are you in the habit of protecting anonymous sources that flat-out lie to you and use you as pawns? Because I know that'd piss me off.</i><br /><br />In journalistic circles there is something referred to as 'going to the dark side'. Basically it involves becoming a paid lackey for political interests. The hack journalist gets first pickings over juicy gossip and insider information, as well as some $$$ sometimes...and in return the hack becomes a shill for political interests.<br /><br />Ain't freedom of the press grand.Gordie Canukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11889201338151732092noreply@blogger.com
