THE COMEBACK:

DO YOU WANT TO TRY AND MATCH WITS WITH ME?

OKAY, I’LL TURN OFF MY BRAIN AND WE’LL START EVEN!

THE MESSAGE:

We are all primarily responsible for ourselves. When it comes to others we are responsible for the truth, our words, our actions and some degree of empathy. Thankfully we are allowed this freedom in Canada. Ideally we have been raised to make free choices and to be held accountable for these choices. 

It seems painfully obvious that when it comes to casting our ballots in any election we do one of the following: 

1. Not bother to vote due to indifference 
2. Not bother to vote due to being incapacitated. 
3. Not bother to vote because we don’t like the candidates. 
4. Vote because we are influenced by the opinions of others, the propaganda of the party line or hollow promises. 
5. Vote unintelligently because we haven’t read enough, listened carefully enough, experienced enough or haven’t been affected enough. 

THE BLURB:

Many Canadians have given their lives to protect our freedom! We owe them and our own children respect by caring about what this Country is doing.   We need to educate ourselves on the important issues of Health, Safety, Education, Employment, Canadian Values, Respect for Law and Justice and Freedom for all Canadians. Don’t be a gullible or brainwashed follower. 

You may ask “what about the Environment?” I believe in reforestation, air quality, conservation of resources and concern for wildlife, fresh water and food supplies. Environmental extremists have the ear of our decision makers. Our planet is not in peril; however, many of its human inhabitants find themselves in a perilous state. 

If people are forced to breathe polluted air resulting in health issues, then let’s stop polluting by improving technology and taking the time to make it safe and efficient instead of rushing into unproven programs that threaten to eliminate jobs and incomes and raise the costs of production with bogus Government Environmental Programs.  

Let’s do away with:

· Bigger governments and more civil servants

· New gadgets for cell phones.

· Idiotic commercials and advertising 

· Subsidies to private industry 

· Speed traps and highway patrols. 

Let’s use our police resources to catch gangs, thieves, murderers, child molesters and abductors, rapists, scammers and fraudsters. 

We need development with proven overall benefits in: 

· Energy consumption and efficiency 

· Rapid transit 

· Community facilities 

· Cost reduction of health care 

· Fighting poverty 

· Community college apprentice programs 

THE QUESTION:

Should prisoners be allowed to vote?

THE LEMON:

To the dork who came up with the idea of  turning Toronto's King Street into a mess of stupidity!
