Dear editor,
Because the truth is more powerful than deception, I would like to help John Duncan with some questions he could use in his next “information” mailouts:
1. Linda Keen, president of the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission, wisely shut down the aging Chalk River facilities for repairs, before significant leaks occurred. Who had her fired for this?
Harper, May, Ignatieff, Layton, Duceppe.
2. Who prolonged military support for the corrupt Afghanistan government — at a total cost of $18 billion — and achieved nothing?
Harper, May, Ignatieff, Layton, Duceppe.
3. In a time of extreme cutbacks, who ordered 65 F-35 fighters at a cost of $15 billion (per Conservative estimates), but more likely $30 billion?
Harper, May, Ignatieff, Layton, Duceppe.
4. Who subsidizes the oil industry with tax exemptions of $1.4 billion per year, or $14 billion over a 10-year period? (Socialism for the rich?).
Harper, May, Ignatieff, Layton, Duceppe.
5. Who put Canada to shame at recent climate conferences — nominated as the “most obstructive” and thus winning the Colossal Fossil award?
Harper, May, Ignatieff, Layton, Duceppe.
I’m sure readers can think of other questions.
Doug Carrick,
Hornby Island
