Most of the people who bothered to attend were unionists, members of political parties and the usual bunch protesting for\against the seal hunt, the environment, gay rights, Israel, proportional representation, abortion, 911 'truthers', animal rights, etc, etc...<br /><br /> I especially loved it when the camera at the Parliament Hill gathering pulled back, showing just how few people were really there. Why is it that every single time the left decides to hold mass protests they always have to wildly exaggerate the numbers? Do you honestly think anyone is fooled? The police estimates are the only ones that matter, sorry.<br /><br /> If I really wanted to rub your noses in it, I would collect some numbers from past protests going back three or four years (or even Gay Pride parades) for comparison. But right now, that would just be cruel...;)<br /><br /> Don't worry, the Conservatives are quite undamaged by all this. You'll have confirmation of this fact soon enough.Fred from BChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12914558903316825761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-52138670140865853982010-01-27T02:01:23.282-05:002010-01-27T02:01:23.282-05:00KNB,

If the opposition does media friendly stunts, than they will report that too.<br /><br />It isn't too hard for people to get the liberal friendly media to give a positive report. <br /><br />A better question is... do the political parties that claim to be outraged about the prorogation have the stomach to really do something about it. If they don't, I hope the public sees through the faux outrage and sees the whole thing for what it is, just some cowardly politician's playing games with people's emotions. <br /><br />The throne speech is on its way so<br />I guess we will see soon enough. In the meantime, think of good ways to get the media attention, and enjoy the Olympics.Tommhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06072854015300215347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-74129162009033778442010-01-25T11:49:21.098-05:002010-01-25T11:49:21.098-05:00Anon, The house is closed until March 3 and NO, I ...Anon, The house is closed until March 3 and NO, I don't believe the opposition parties will be consulted in any way. Harpercon is a one man show and he doesn't know the meaning of the word consultant nor has he ever listened to any professional economist ever since he's been the PM.<br /><br />Have a great week all. Lets hope that the protesters continue especially today with the meeting .I agree with KNB, we must continue the protests until Harper does start listening to all Canadians so I guess the protests will be an outgoing thing.mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07878825121729826425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-25646355987309703452010-01-25T09:55:26.915-05:002010-01-25T09:55:26.915-05:00I wonder what John Moore of the CFRB 1010 has to s...I wonder what John Moore of the CFRB 1010 has to say now.

Since then I've seen nothing more about it on T.V. but have in online & print media. This is not the end. People are angry & I think it will be easier for people to unite as they hear more & more on a lot more coming, & past, Harper issues that affect us all.penlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07830912393649649485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-75081615539683119772010-01-25T03:34:03.198-05:002010-01-25T03:34:03.198-05:00Geez Anon - it's not Ignatieff's or any ot...Geez Anon - it's not Ignatieff's or any other opposition party's responsibility to create a budget. It's Harper's, who in turn should be giving it to the opposition parties to study and THEN they makes suggestions.<br /><br />Gosh, Harper has to do some work. But no - he won't give the opposition parties time.

Regardless of the Liberals serious misgivings of Con directions, Canadians were pretty clear they don't want another election...yet. So I guess were just gonna stew all together for a bit now....<br />Oh I forgot... the Cons won't be stewing they are on extended vacation with much more fun fish to fry!Woman at Mile 0http://womanatmile0.amfresh.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-15828504963603002152010-01-24T23:52:47.720-05:002010-01-24T23:52:47.720-05:00Anon..good gawd, you think all of this is about th...Anon..good gawd, you think all of this is about the budget?<br /><br />I think I understand more clearly the inanity that votes for Harper.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04291881352139075405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30594727.post-32409188040020412912010-01-24T23:49:36.250-05:002010-01-24T23:49:36.250-05:00I look forward to the parliamentary committee work...I look forward to the parliamentary committee working on the budget consultations...
