Ummmm, and why haven't any native protestors been arrested yet? Or have I missed something?

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Joanne!

Yes, not a single native protestor has yet to be arrested.

The double standard is getting so obvious even our left wing friends don't seem to be able to defend the OPP's actions.

On another topic: PricewaterhouseCooper released a study paper on income trusts early this week. Seems that there is not unanimous agreement about the terrible effects of trusts. It's available on the PwC website.

Thanks, Soccermom! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well!

Swift, I fear that many people in Ontario are despairing. Between this and McGuinty's raise seconded by John Tory, I think the turnout at the next provincial election will be dismal.

I am extremely disillusioned myself.

BTW, thanks for the "Trust" update. Not much of that left in Canada either.

The duplicity in this country sickens me. "Progressives" are the worst of the bunch. They are burdened with Euro-guilt and Arrogance, a combination that is dangerous and is angering more and more reasonable, logical, and good people.

When pressed for an explanation for why the double standard, the usual response among "progressives" will have something to do with "the natives suffered before" ... or, "this is all about righting ancient injustices".

If you are shaking your head at how irrational this sounds ... you should.

Everybody should read Culture Warrior... it'll give you a boost, it'll realign your perspective, and it'll give you a vocabulary to frame this whole debate in.

This is a culture war, and if we sit around and mope, the "progressives" will win. So don't get down folks, fight back.

Culture Warrior? Is this a book I should be requesting from my local library, Debris Trail? Thanks for the pep talk, BTW.

I know, if we give up they win. The left will drown us all. It's just that sometimes I think they're all on the left.

Yes Joanne, it's a book and will likely be your library... if not, have them order it. At this point it's the #1 Best Seller for Political books in the USA.

D.T. - Thanks. I'll going to check it out. Now that I'm finished America Alone, I'm looking for a new title.
