Outasite! Supreme Court bludgeons Con ideology with reality.

Insite

One of the few benefits of not having any political power is that you get to sit back and watch the majority power fall all over its own ideology and arrogance.

Less than 40% of Canada voted for these guys. That’s not a mandate for anything other than doing what the Canadian people want you to do. The Cons haven’t learned this yet. They have been waiting so long for this moment, they are unable to harness their giddy approach to governance.

They better learn fast for their sakes. Their holy high roller spending on jets, limo rides, gold-plated calling cards and fake lakes will soon wake Canadians from their slumber.

Even the courts are no longer playing along with the impetuous baby Cons. While thecrestfallen Cons recover from a blow to their ideological opposition to the proven Insite program in Vancouver, the rest of us benefit from courts that rely on facts and laws to make their decisions.

Libby Davies, the New Democrat MP whose riding includes the Downtown Eastside where Insite is located, was delighted with the court ruling.

“Since it opened in 2003 in my riding, fatal overdoses have dropped by a third. More people get treatment as Insite is there to connect people with the services they need. Today the people who use this service have had their voices heard,” Ms. Davies told the House.

“The Supreme Court agrees, health professionals agree, international health experts agree,” she said. “Will the Conservatives admit their failed approach and acknowledge that Insite protects public health and saves lives? Will they stop being the barrier to this very important service?”

Remember folks, this decision was unanimous.

Of course this will all change as judges leave and Harper appoints hard right ones in their place. But even that has a silver lining. The more Canadians see what these brigands are up to, the faster will be the Conservatives’ fall from grace.

    Since when were Harper’s Conservatives ever in a state of grace?

    Harper had a many times convicted American felon working for him. Felon Carson and his ex prostitute girlfriend were guests in Harper’s home. U.S. citizens have said, the robo calls to confuse Canadians of their voting location venues, came out of North Dakota. Hmmm. Harper was also in contempt of the House. There is serious doubt, Harper won the election, on the up and up. Well over half the Canadian people, did not want Harper as P.M.

    Harper is the worst P.M. in this nations recorded history. Harper ignores our Constitution. Our Civil Rights and Liberties have been taken away from us. He has eroded Canada’s democracy, to non-existence. Even other country’s have noticed and written about it.

    Harper has embarrassed Canada on many occasions. The worst, most, awful embarrassment of Harper’s is, he sent ex BC premier Gordon Campbell to England, as High Commissioner. Campbell has the most corrupt and foul political record, in Canadian history. Harper gave false statements to Europe, trying to con them, the dirty tar sands oil is clean energy. Campbell has even less morals and ethics than Harper. Campbell’s first priority is, to con Europe into accepting the dirty tar sands oil.

    What people have to learn, Harper could care less about the Canadians citizens. The insite’s costs him money. There are certain people Harper has no use for, unless he can use them. If Campbell was a drug addict, instead of an alcoholic, he would still use him. It just depends on what you are good for, as to a persons value.

    As far as I believe. Harper and Campbell aren’t worth the powder, to blow them to hell.
