1. Find something the business sector in Canada wants
2. Oppose it
3. Oppose it with extra vigour if it involves some form of cooperation or partnership with the US
4. Return to step 1

NO no no, it goes like this. If it makes money, tax it. If it makes a SHIT load of money, regulate and tax it. If it quits making money, subsidize it.

3 seems to be the key part.

Any details as to what this is about here?

As I've said before, the biggest problem with groups like the Council of Canadians, and to a certain extent commentators like Linda McQuaig and David Orchard is that their rhetoric and/or some of their solutions just take things too damn far, for all that they otherwise make some very good points.

On CKA's sister site Vive Le Canada (an underrated gem of a Canadian-related site, and one that could use more content to offset the far-left stuff that cuckoo-clock residents like Robin Mathews post there...hint hint), Individualist himself has mentioned his concerns about things like continental integration. This is exactly what the Council is so concerned about...but how many friends do they make when they call people who advocate closer ties to the U.S. "quislings" or "sellouts", and compare the oilsands to Mordor? How does that last bit go over with the thousands of Albertans and other Canadians who rely on oil and gas development for their livelihoods?

The really sad thing is that more and more, I see people on the right raising many of the same concerns as the Council of Canadians about things like foreign ownership in the economy and rising levels of poverty, like Diane Francis, Jonathan Kay and the late Peter Lougheed. Unfortunately, as it is with so many things in Canada these days, demonizing those who dare to disagree with you is the most popular tactic.
