So the Gov'ts on a break....

What else is new? These people who are supposed to run our country seem to take more time off than on! While there is a little relief that the opposition parties are not being allowed to band together and take over, I'm still frustrated. I admit, when it comes to politics, I do not follow, however, I was extremely irritated to hear the news that the NDP and Liberal parties, along with the Bloc were banding together to overthrow a party that was voted into power. Like it or not, the conservatives won the election and they should be given the chance to govern. It almost comes across like the other parties are trying to get their own way, they didn't like the outcome so they'll force the outcome that they want. Seriously, who really wants Dion in power? Not me! The guy is so out to lunch and the two, sorry three parties that are joining together, really have not much in common. There was a time when I liked Jack Layton, I liked the idea of the money on the kitchen tables of our country and not on the boardroom tables, but how is this going to happen when Dion is such a supporter of the carbon tax? ARen't we taxed enough? And where does all the millions that they collect from us in income tax, gas tax and the hundred or so other taxes, go? Shouldn't we, the public be demanding that the books be opened for us to see? shouldn't we get to decide if government officials deserve a raise or not? Canadians are too content and complacent. In other countries when the gov't does something they don't like, they are protesting in the streets, demanding change. Over here, not much happens. Let's hope and pray that in the new year, the government that was voted into power with actually have the chance to do it's job!
