Harper - Capitalist Despot - Attacking Canada's Democracy

The question of robo-calls and other various oddities during our last federal election has left many Canadians feeling disenfranchised.

This followed the Conservative in-out scandal from the 2006 election campaign.

Obviously there is a real problem and efforts by the Prime Minister or his Caucus to downplay these events further emphasize the need for concern.

Stephen Harper and his ilk have been playing the Gods of Morality since they entered the federal political scene - they have pushed the value of "family" - as they see it - they have spoken about individual freedoms - as they see them and basically condemned all governments before them.

We were going to get an elected Senate - remember? Harper continues to stuff the Senate with under-qualified partisan buffoons and has removed the public funding of elections - in an effort to maintain power by any means.

Stephen Harper believes that you too will see the "right" way if he and his cronies, MacKay, Baird, and Toews keep spewing it. With that "right" way also comes the arrogance of a class system where they as leaders are above the people who elect them.

The Harper reformers are arrogant, cheating, and lying, despots who believe they owe nobody an explanation. They are opposed to transparency and accountability - all under the guise of knowing what is best for you and me.

These overstuffed suited Byzantinians are not into democracy and they do not believe in our electoral system. The question is - how much trouble are we in?

I contend that if these elections irregularities were noticed in countries where democracy is in its infancy - our independent observers would cry foul. If there are in fact over 30,000 incidents where voters felt their free vote was tampered with in any way - we have an election which should not be valid.

Determining how many "rogues" there were does not make me feel any less angry and I demand that Canada stop this major erosion of our democracy.

I have listened to various media outlets attempting to downplay these irregularities - in part - because they play partisan and in part because the reporters along with millions of Canadians do not want to accept that this erosion is actually real.

We - as Canadians - had better wake-up quickly or we may lose the real values we hold dear and find ourselves surrounded by right-wing economists who are treating our resources and people as part of a collective corporate pot - possessing absolutely zero ethics and social conscience. Canada is a country not a company and it does not belong to entities registered on the various stock exchanges.

That is the real message of young people who stand as anonymous and with the Occupy movement. The wearing of masks simply highlights that we no longer have a face - we are no longer human beings - we are just a cog in a resource extracting wheel that knows no borders and recognizes no human rights.

This Prime Minister was politically raised to do just what he is doing - and for Canadians that spells danger. We must all fight to have our democracy restored and to remove from office these robos that want to vote the people out.

Even posts like this one - coming from an identifiable IP address - are something the Conservatives want control of.

The way I see it is that we now have become a victim of the world banking , corporate and government collaboration ,,,, If it where isolated to just canada it would be bad enough but it is indeed a world situation ,,,,, As canadians we have a great place to live and need to defend against this take over and that means Harper has to be removed as PM of canada but not just that we need to look at all politicians as to there integrity and agendas as people and there parties ,,, To me this means a complete review of history back to the stock-market crash of 1930 and determine if it was indeed a crash of economy or a banking fraud ,,,, If we determined it to be a banking fraud then we could declared a poison fruit act in that no banking agreements in its wake of 1930 where valid ,,, I can't profit from a fraud or anything after that fraud for it is poison fruit so with that Canada and all other nations can pursue compensation and give notes of nonpayment to the debt as it is part of the poison fruit
