Government not working for us

Does our Federal Government work for you? I think not, and no my head is not in the sand.

Does our Federal Government work for you?

I think not, and no my head is not in the sand but I’m afraid there are numerous (federal government does have a majority) who think otherwise. And one of these is your leader who spends yours and my hard earned bucks in a good, bad or indifferent manner.

You, yes you, who believe this is the way to go even when we know that two wrongs don’t make a right.

These two wrongs in question are as follows:

1) The Israelis literally stole land from the Palestinians and they are continuing to build settlements for the Jewish people. My understanding is that Canada does back Israel. If you are looking for the Jewish vote this is the way to go, I guess. What’s your way to go?

2) The more I read in the newspapers or see on TV regarding the defense issue on aircraft procurement I think we have our heads in the sand.

There are many, many more issues but the two listed provide sufficient reasons that Canada can do better.

If you are concerned, all I ask is to be truthful.

A concerned Canadian and veteran,

Bill Rae
