What? I can't be as shallow as other folk?

[EyeBrock]

Not with me mate.

[Wada]

Oh! What exactly makes you so special?

[EyeBrock]

Nothing. You can take this to pm if you wish. Others may be bored with it.

[Wada]

You answered correctly. I have no interest in PMing you and others can just read on by.

[EyeBrock]

Yea, you have nothing then eh? Predictable from your posts.

[Wada]

Nothing! Because I won't PM you? Predictable?

Might be cause you can't answer a direct question after you make a direct comment about EyeBrock.

That's chicken-shit. Throw in your $0.02 and run away with your tail between your legs when it's convenient.

When you step into the fire, expect it to get hot.

That'll be $70,000 a year, please. Oh, and I might not be in tomorrow. I'm off on a junket to Tahiti for trade talks.

That caricature of Ignatieff as an American eagle is amazing art work. Especially as it's a good comment as well. (It didn't copy with the quote function)

2.Agent Orange compensation package of $96 million –$20,000 to all veterans and civilians who lived within 5 kilometers of CFB Gagetown in N.B. between 1966 and 1967

3.Apology to Native people – by Government of Canada on June 11, 2008 for residential school abuses

7.Chinese immigrant provision of $20,000 to every individual and/or surviving spouses who paid the head tax plus $24 million towards an “historical recognition program”

17.Hep C compensation redressed – for latest court rulings that clear the way for national $1 billion package

19.Indian Residential School Settlement Agreement

I just like how many of them are either Liberal screw ups or simply past screw ups that the Liberals refused to address. Most of these apologies or redresses never even got addressed because the Libs feared it would look like they were taking the blame.
Is that the better they talk about because it's just not getting it done.

[Wada]

All good things, indeed. But, let's give the credit where it's really do, to those persons who fought a long, uphill battle to see them to fruition. The government just finally conceded, is all.

[ridenrain]

All good things indeed.. except the Hep-C which had Paul Martin's finger prints all over it. And those indian things because Chretien was in charge of that when Trudeau brought out that monsterous "white paper".. But aside from those..

Why didn't past majority governments resolve this instead of waiting? Why didn't they have the guts to resolve this when they were throwing around billions in surplus?
