Where is the Liberal or NDP outrage at being called untrustworthy by Harper?
Am I the only person who feels this way about the so-called "redacted" documents the Conservative government has insisted on foisting upon parliament?
I have waited in vain for some spokesperson....political or journalist....to point out the eight hundred pound elephant in the corner! And that is the fact that by only allowing the Liberals, NDP, and other MPs to see censored documents, the Harper government is implying that only Conservatives can be trusted with sensitive material. This is outrageous! All members of parliament, from all parties were elected by the people of Canada and have equal rights to all available information. It is very apparent that the real reason is obviously that Harper and his minions are hiding things!
Wake up Ignatieff and Layton!

2. I realize that....I'm talking about the fact that it has gone on this
long without anyone pointing out what I have said about Harper implying only Conservatives are trustworthy!

3. They did so.
They took it as far as they could, and Harper still refused. So now the Speaker rules on it.

4. I'm sorry....I have listened to all the kerfuffle and have NEVER
heard anyone say that the Harperites are insulting the other parliamenatarians by insinuating they can not be trusted to see uncensored papers. The Liberals and NDP have demanded unretracted documents, but that is as far as they have gone. And also the journalists have not made this point either.

6. Nobody said in Parliament that they (Liberals and NDPers) were
as trustworthy as Conservatives. THAT IS MY POINT!.

9. It's really puzzling to me....just now in Question period...Ignetieff
was again begging Harper to allow his party to see the documents. Why doesn't he just speak up and say..."Is the Prime Minister suggesting that Liberals and other members of parliament are capable of treason and not to be trusted? Only Conservatives are trustworthy?"
I really believe this would be so effective as far as the Canadian public is concerned.

10. I think
there are several members of Parliament that are not trustworthy with national secrets . We should have a sub committee system like the Americans . How the hell can we trust people that belong to parties like the PQ that are based on the destroying the country .

11. Do you seriously believe the PQ wants harm to come to
Canadian troops (including many Quebecers) in Afghanistan?

12. Absolutely
I believe there are members of the PQ that would allow harm to come to Canadians to further their agenda and if you don't you are very naive . PQ = FLQ

13. You
Should learn a little bit of Canadian history and politics.

No one is offering, or even suggesting, that the PQ would be involved with this.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and talks like a duck. Then it is a duck.

15. I Would
Suggest that you stop personal criticism.

The PQ is a provincial party!

The Bloc is the name the ROC gives to the Bloc Quebecois.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and squawks like a duck. Then it is a duck!

19. What's with you?
I did a search of your postings, and you seem to be a right winger on just about every post.

What brings you here?
