Singing Elvis "Suspicious Minds"

I'm so suspicious of the McGuinty Liberals, I'm looking for the time bombs in the proposed Animal Health Act that was introduced in October. I"m always mistrustful of anything that refers to "as prescribed in the regulations" but the regulations aren't presented with the legislation.

Read it here, and let me know if you see any ticking time bombs in what is probably another vague and shoddy piece of Fib legislation. I see one already....

The Minister may establish and oversee the operation of a provincial traceability system for animals and specified things related to animals, and may authorize the collection, maintenance and use of information with respect to the system.

This could include dogs and authorize the release or publication of the personal information (name, address) of people who own dogs that have been falsely demonized by the McSquinty Fibs.

I'm not paranoid. They are out to get us.

Give the federal Liberals a reality check

A Liberal MP has introduced a Bill to amend the Old Age Security program to permit immigrants to apply for OAS after only three years in Canada, without working one day or contributing one cent in income taxes. It is Bill C-428 and can be read here.

To my eye, the OAS is insufficiently funded and cannot support the wave of applications that would follow if this Bill is passed.

Financial support of an immigrant, especially an immigrant senior, must be the sole responsibility of the sponsoring family.

Write your federal MP and the head of the political party responsible for this Bill, Michael Ignatieff, and tell them to vote No on Bill C-428 regardless of political allegiance. This Bill is unfair to working Canadian taxpayers and fiscally irresponsible.

What McGuinty's Fiberals and other pro-BSL'ers have caused

Warning: Graphic.

Let Wag The Dog inform you.

This is what happens when ruthless, callous, ambitious politicians make their play for power on the rights of dog owners and the backs of dead dogs.

Don't buy Nike

Nike is supplying product to Michael Vick. Nike Canada confirmed this in an e-mail to me. Michael Vick, who fought dogs, tortured dogs, and brutally killed dogs by drowning, repeatedly smashing them on the ground, electrocuting them.

If this is the type of "person" Nike wants to associate with, condoning vicious animal cruelty and dogfighting for the sake of bux, I will never spend another dollar on its products.

Chicobandido has an excellent letter penned to Nike...read it here.

H/T to Chicobandido for this....I don't have speakers so I don't know what the audio is, but the visual really got me. It's from the Jimmy Kimmel Show.

If you want to contact Nike Corporate to express your disgust with its decision to supply Vick with product, I suggest writing to Philip H. Knight, its Chair of the Board of Directors; Mark G. Parker, President and CEO; and Charlie Denison, President Nike Brand.

Send your letters to Nike World Headquarters, One Bowerman Drive, Beaverton, OR 97005-6453 USA.

For Europe, send your letters to Nike EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa) Headquarters, Colosseum 1, 1213 NL Hilversum, The Netherlands.

Nike might be a good target for a "say on pay" movement by its shareholders. I say that if Nike supports an athlete who brutally used and murdered dogs, the directors and executives should make substantial personal financial contributions to Bad Rap, Best Friends and Recycled Love that helped save the canine victims of Michael Vick. NOT to Peta or Humane $ociety of the United $tates, who wanted to kill the dogs.

Read the Sports Illustrated article about these dogs, and tell me who the vicious creatures are in this story.
