It's A Marshmallow World: Canadian Politics

The widely supported media driven Facebook protest failed to engage regular Canadians, the same pro-coalition protestors showed up from the ranks of the

• NDP
• Liberal
• anti-war
• Unions 

came out for the coalition in 2008. This time the crowds were even smaller than 2008? Why?

It's called "slacktivism," and it runs rampant on social media. And for good reason. Who wants to be the wet blanket, too cynical to get behind a cause? 

“The ‘gotcha' stuff is out of control,” says the Liberal. “They bring in all these nerdy keener kids from campus and it's some kind of game to them. They're turning politics into pro wrestling.” The media concentrates on the top, Ignatieff, and on the Hill, but disenchanted Liberals say there is a story to be told far from the now-silenced sound bites of the Centre Block.

It is a Vision thing and a Plan something the opposition Parties are not interested in presenting for debate in Parliament.

We will see further evidence of the canaries in the coal mine talk about the death of the Liberal Party in Canada. How many people that went to the constitutency offices of the MP's found it strange demanding they return to work by leaving their office to attend QP and committees in Ottawa?

Nothing gets done outside of Ottawa?

I Say Plan: You Say Polo

 

December 2008

Michael Ignatieff refuses to offer specific ideas to help Canadians with "Global Recession" Budget in December 2008. See video below.

He was a busy writing a book, refused to join Bob Rae in selling the coalition on a national tour. He chose to spend his holidays writing about his family instead of working on an alternative plan that was credible to the January budget in 2009.

Our CPC led government meet in December 2008: another holiday break to negotiate with the Premiers to agree to EAP an ACTIVIST Federal Budget. Full participation with Province, Cities and Federal Government one-third cost sharing.

December 2009


It has been over a year since becoming the leader of the official opposition. Iffy boards a plane and leaves Canada behind for a vacation in France. One year later NO PLAN, no alternative the CPC Budget introduced January 2009. The Liberals support the CPC Agenda until the Fall with one photo op protest vote. They pass another supply Bill on December 10, 2009 with the NDP demostrating their confidence in the CPC led government.




January 2010

Family vacation in France is interrupted! Returns to Canada for a university photo-op tour on eleven campuses.

Federal Government has Open Consultation for Budget 2010.

What is the Liberal reaction to Public consultation on participating on crafting budget again?

"It's not my problem. It's Stephen Harper's problem," Ignatieff said. "What I want to see is the government's plan to dig us out. My job is to determine whether that plan is credible. Once I've determined whether that plan is credible, we'll have to put forward an alternative plan that is more credible."

There was a time when the Liberal Party stood for three things: a strong central government, an activist state that tried to redistribute income and opportunity, and an internationalist foreign policy.-Jeffery Simpson
