Harper government\u2019s legal setbacks suggest strategy of confrontation<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 { \/ Harper government steers for a deliberate collision with the courts<\/span>\u00a0 \u2014 The issue here is \u2018Does Stephen Harper and his hand picked team of attack dogs and yes men believe they have a right to force their agenda on Canada via an end run around the Canadian Constitution and the Rights and Privileges of Canadian Citizens?\u2019 (( <\u2014 My words, after listening to a few of my favourite Canadians complaining about their Prime Minister. )) A judge struck down a section of a \u2018tough on crime\u2019 bill that may have been an attempt to shift the cost of services to victims from government coffers to those convicted of crimes. If the courts were 100% above board and everybody convicted of a crime was actually guilty, I would not have a problem here. Way too many convictions have been overturned by DNA evidence and findings that \u2018Expert Witnesses\u2019 were a whole lot less than 100% honest or a whole lot less than 100% correct in the conclusions they had jumped to. One Canadian doctor\u2019s erroneous diagnosis of abuse or neglect in cases of sudden infant deaths had their court system re-investigating hundreds of cases a couple years ago. And Canadians are a lot more honest and \u2018nice\u2019 than most other citizens of this world. }<\/p>\n

Oscar Pistorius lied repeatedly, prosecutor says in closing argument<\/span>\u00a0 \/\u00a0 Oscar Pistorius \u2018one of the worst witnesses ever encountered\u2019<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 { Would it be unethical for a news gathering individual to admit that I don\u2019t trust prosecutors? }<\/p>\n

Are sanctions on Russia beginning to bite?<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 { As reported yesterday, we have reason to believe that we\u2019re only getting half of this story. When a Libertarian reports that he believes that Vladimir Putin has the ethical high ground and is defending his country against a campaign of lies and deceitful propaganda- I\u2019m beginning to wonder what the bleep is going on here. I\u2019m not going to commit to either side being right, myself- I\u2019ll just report what I can. }<\/p>\n

Yes, prayers help.)) }<\/p>\n

Roma Pusuma family living in Totonto sanctuary caught in legal bind\u00a0\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>{ A family of Roma (we used to call them \u2018Gypsies\u2019) have been living in a church and claiming sanctuary there for the past 32 months, seeking asylum after they were ordered deported. In what smells to me like a trick by legal authorities, they have been subpoenaed to testify in court at the trial of their former lawyer, who has been accused of misconduct. They are afraid to leave the church. (( Why doesn\u2019t somebody argue to have them appear in court via video? or is this a case of \u2018we\u2019re the law, we make the rules, we don\u2019t like you, tough luck-\u2018? )) }<\/p>\n

Italian law allows dissenting share holders the right to cash out- Which would mean the corporation might have to shell out more than 500 million Euros- which would scuttle the merger. }<\/p>\n

Walgreen stock hammered after it drops tax inversion plan<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 { Walgreen is in trouble with investors for not<\/span> sleezing their Headquarters out of the U.S.A. in favor of a country that would allow it to keep more of its profits and\/or get away with not paying U.S. taxes on as much as they can get away with. What do you suppose would happen if households all declared themselves to be corporations and moved their financial headquarters to tax shelters overseas? }<\/p>\n

First Nations Transparency Act holdouts given 120 days to post financial data\u00a0 <\/span><\/span>{ \u2018The federal government says First Nations bands have until the end of November to comply with new transparency rules that came into effect last week or risk losing government funding.\u2019 The government wants Chiefs and tribal councils to let everyone know where their money comes from, where it goes and how much of it comes to them and who gets how much of that. {{ Again, if you believe Walter Burien of \u00a0 CAFR1.com<\/a> \u00a0 Almost no federal, state, or municipal government in the U.S. or any of its allies have told the truth about its finances since the end of World War II. Taxes are less than one third of most government\u2019s income and that\u2019s all they the income they admit to. Governments could stop collecting taxes right now and deliver more and better services, but they will not voluntarily do that. }} Canadian Government officials keep hammering on the Tribal Chief out west who received an $800,000.00 bonus for his part in a land sale. I remember hearing about former Prime Ministers and other government officials caught with their hands in cookie jars more to the tune of Millions of dollars. Turn the bloody microscope on the accusers. }<\/p>\n
