That was terrible for Canadian webmasters. Around 2000 I would cash a USD check from a sponsor for $10,000 and get about $15,000! It was fun.

I've read this whole thread, and I can't believe no one else has made the connection yet, so I'm gonna do it:

Wanna know what happens? Watch the Star Wars saga. Palpatine took control of the Senate based on a vote of No Confidence in the previous Chancellor, Vellorum.

Not long after, Palpatine took TOTAL control of the Senate due to the increasing separatist threat...unleashed the newly created Grand Army of the Republic. This is your clue to watch out for a massive surge in Mounty activity in the near future, folks.

Then, in an unprecedented move, Palpatine not only failed to relinquish Supreme Command of said Army, but disbanded the Senate, becoming the Emperor, and unleashing all hell. He was eventually murdered by his second in command, whose son then killed him, sold the story to George Lucas, who then turned it into a movie franchise based on true events...

The only reason you don't see this in our own history books it because it happened...

LONG AGO...
...IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY.

I just couldn't help myself.xxx

The 1982 act would indicate otherwise, which is all I'm really trying to get through to the guy.

Quote:

The Governor General is the representative of the Canadian monarch, and may exercise most powers vested in the Crown. The Queen does retain all executive power and her Royal Prerogative, but she has never personally intervened in Canadian politics; most of her duties being exercised by the Governor General, though she does alone hold the power to appoint a governor general, and, as required by the Canadian constitution, to add seats to the Senate, but does so only on the advice of the Canadian Prime Minister. Although the person who is monarch of Canada is also monarch of the United Kingdom, Canada being a sovereign nation, the British government cannot advise the Queen or her Governor General on Canadian matters, or otherwise interfere in Canadian affairs.

The Constitution Act of 1982 severed ties with the UK, NOT the Queen...

in a multi party system like canada it is possible to be the leading party and not hold a majority of the seats.

When such a vote occurs it is deemed that leading party is going against the mandate of the majority of the population. Violating the trust of the people and therefore not considered valid any more.

As a result one of three things happen the opposition parties form a coalition (formalized agreement), the third party agrees to support the official opposition (like liberal /ndp alliance in ontario) or a new election is called.

The first two usually end up being painted as the end of the world in the begining, but usually end up being the best thing because the politicalized point of view gets tempered by the alternative views of the secondary party. Resulting in policy which is best for everyone.

so you think harper should have the right to blindly force legislation down our throats when a majority of people voted against him.

the $1.95/vote party funding was designed to prevent big business from buying up the government like it does in the states. It guarrentees that other opinions (like the green party) get heard instead of washed away in the lunitic fringe (ralph nader) like it is in other countries.

The conservatives were trying to censor their opponents in the next election by turning our countries political system into a copy of the american.

If i wanted to live in america i would move to america, if that is the kind of shit harper is pulling then he deserves to kicked out on his ass.

Just to clarify my post since I didn't say anything in it. This is a move of the Queen the way I see it. I don't pay a whole lot of attention to Canada's politics but I do know enough about the objective. This is a NAU move. They want a NAU to dissolve both the US and Canadian constitutions. If they can get NAU approval then they can disarm the US, squash free speech and dissent of al countries involved.. There are too many signs pointing towards a huge change in our world the first part of next year. This has nothing to do with the people of Canada. Harper is on board for whatever it is the plans are.

MetaMan · 12-05-2008, 02:44 PM

I blame the faggot fucking French losers across this country that tear this nation apart.
