Forgot to mention ... and it is related to the topic ... that our tory PM chose to mention at Davos
today, that his government, which is cutting jobs in the civil service and refusing opposition calls to increase taxes on wealthy individuals and corporations, is planning to raise the qualifying age for old age security pensions from 65 to 67 ... arrogance, the pride that cometh etc. A quick CBC poll today revealed that 80% of Canadians are opposed to this. Arrogant sonofabitch. The right wingers are digging their own graves with their insatiable greed.
