Me, Myself, and Mine

With considerable fanfare the Liberal Party of Canada announced it's new "Carbon Tax" on June 20, 2008. It will serve as the core of Mr. Dion's platform for the next Federal election in 2009.

You'll be hit with a flood of Liberal propaganda about it over the coming weeks and months leading up to the coming election.

What's a carbon tax all about? Is it good for Canada's economy? Will it help us meet our ambitious green house gases reduction targets? Will it stimulate productivity in Canada? Is it really revenue neutral as the Liberals say?

Most importantly, how will affect you? And is it good for your family?

You'll discover the answer to some questions you may have, and explore some new ones you maybe haven't thought of, in the article Half Shift by the Editor of Maclean's Magazine, Andrew Coyne.

You need to know what it's all about to make an informed decision. For it carries a $40 billion price tag!

How do you feel about the threat of 'Global Warming'? How about abortion and population control? And what about the so-called threat to the traditional family? The lunacy of the 'left'? Or the 'right'?

No matter what your views might be on one or all of these important subjects, be prepared to exercise your emotions as you read the column by Mr. Don Feder called "Global Warming - Left's Latest Excuse for the War on the Family".

Once you've done so, come back and leave a comment. Express yourself! It's free ...and freeing!!

Now It's Your Turn!: Please share how you feel and what you think about the issues and/or what Mr. Feder says. For example: "Is Global Warming a real and present danger to our children's future survival?" or "Has it all happened before and it's just scare mongering by those with personal agendas?" or "Is the traditional family even something worth defending?"
