It’s official: Layton backs 50%-plus-one rule for Quebec secession - The Globe and Mail

The NDP keeps being lost in their own ambitions. From leader of the opposition this 'character' now aims to be the leader of Quebec. As far as the rest of Canada is concerned, maybe the time has come to realize on what the Quebec card has been for the political game in the country and the impact it has had on everything else.

If the PQ was decimated supposedly making its goal irrelevant, the issue won't go away, because the discussion persists and the collectivist venom will maintain it so that the potential of a 'conservative spring' is not allowed to even come to surface. Are we Canadians longing more for a separatist effort than we are for a true wind of conservatism? By the way, Bob Rae is the 'leader' interim or not, of the defunct Liberal Party of Canada.

I hope Harper takes note and appreciates the big opportunity history has put before him to really work for Canada, with or without Quebec, or should I say, with or without the NDP and its collectivist bunch.

Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples

Gospel text ( L uke 11,1-4): One day Jesus was praying in a certain place and when He had finished, one of his disciples said to him, «Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples». And Jesus said to them, «When you pray, say this: Father, hallowed be your name, may your kingdom come, give us each day the kind of bread we need, and forgive us our sins, for we also for-give all who do us wrong, and do not bring us to the test»

Money

Is money the ultimate goal, the end of all means? Nowadays, it seems, everything is not just measured in terms of money, but everything needs to be, has to be, in terms of money. Money is set as the goal, over anything. Money is meant to be just a media for exchange of goods and services, not a goal on itself, yet our society has corrupted onto making of money a statement beyond life, family, marriage and most definitively above love and truth. Such a philosophy has degraded our souls to the point of denying everything that is in conflict with the value of money. Even when charity is concerned, it seems mercy can only be measured in monetary terms, as if charity could be measured by anyone except God alone. If there is crusade or cause to be enrolled, the only acceptable way has been institutionalized as the amount of money it can be contributed, regardless of the individual efforts that could be applied or spent.

A matter of life or death

Maybe I am the only one in Ontario, ‘experiencing’ a confrontation with the 407ETR corporation, or maybe not. So far it seems the fact is that I am not, that many out there are subjected to billing from the corporation. No, I am not saying unfair, discriminatory or any of the kind, but I am going to say, unsupported and unsubstantiated. The issue of the matter is that the corporation, for some presumably important reason, is blessed by the province of Ontario to have the ability to stop the licensing of any individual who fail to pay the corporation anything they ask for even if they apparently, are not able to support with facts what they claim.
