Amazing when my brand new Samsung Core Smartphone with all the app updates to date, crashes on WordPress and I lose all my previous draft text.

So we go again….

…”Mendes suggests that if media outlets or the information commissioner were to bring action, the government could always argue that freedom of expression includes its freedom to express absolutely nothing.”…

This is NOT AN ARGUMENT THAT A DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT CAN TAKE. IT HOLDS NO GROUND AND WATER IN THE LIGHT OF DAY.

A DEMOCRATIC GOVERNMENT IS UPHELD BY THE CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS & FREEDOMS TO SERVE THE CANADIAN PUBLIC. IT IS AN ELECTED GOVERNMENT FOR THE PEOPLE AND BY THE PEOPLE.

IT HAS HAD 100 YEARS EXTRA TO PONDER THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION AND CALL FOR INDEPENDENCE UPON WHICH THE CHARTER WAS DRAFTED AND PUT TO INK AND PAPER. AND IF THAT WASN’T ENOUGH, IT WAS SIGNED INTO A CONSTITUION IN 1982… HOW MANY YEARS IS THAT ?

REPRESENTATION BY TAXATION WAS THE CALL FOR OPENNESS OF GOVERNMENTS IN FAIR EXCHANGE OF OPINIONS, VIEWS AND CHALLENGES IN THE WAY THE PUBLIC WAS SERVED FOR THE INTERESTS OF ALL.

TO STAND BY IDLE AND BITCH THAT THE GOVERNMENT ISN’T OPEN WILL DO NO ONE ANY GOOD. LEAST OF ALL THOSE WHO ARE VESTED IN MAKING SURE THAT SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST SERVES THE ALPHA VERSION OF A CAVEMAN WITH AN ATTITUDE AS KING OF THE HILL.

IN MY OPINION, SINCE 911… THE CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT HAS USED SECURITY SECRECY AS IT’S AGENDA TO NOT SERVE CANADIANS AND THEIR INTERESTS.

YES… IN MATTERS OF NATIONAL SECURITY, TIME SHOULD PASS BEFORE DISCLOSURE. ALL OTHER MATTERS ARE IN THE PUBLIC DOMAIN OF ALL CANADIANS.

CHANGE AND CHALLENGE OR REMAIN PRISONERS OF CONSCIENCE ACCEPTING YOUR FATES AND DESTINIES.

NO ONE WINS IN THE LONG TERM IF EVERYTHING HENCEFORTH REMAINS BEHIND THE SCENES FOR A FEW EYES ONLY.

YOU MIGHT AS WELL GO BACK AND TURN THE HANDS OF TIME TO A DICTATORSHIP AND NATION OF POWER IN THE HANDS OF 1 MADMAN WHO DECIDES WHAT’S BEST FOR EVERYONE.

HENCE AN 8 YEAR TERM LIMIT OF PRESIDENCY IN THE UNITED STATES. THE FOUNDING FATHERS KNEW BETTER :~)
