Back at Ya.




On my buddy Kevin's blog, The Long Road, he posted a video of himself carving a few turns on Sun Peaks so I thought it was my turn.

Oh Ya, We're in Good Hands!

Our new saviour, Stephen Harper, who vows to clean up government and have a more transparent government has just come out with his ingenious three point plan for winning back the faith of Canadians. Apparently, the problem as Steve O sees it is those ministers who embarrass or contradict the government in public. So for those ministers who do not goose step in line with the conservative party plan Harper says they can expect 1) public humiliation, 2) to be banned from official trips and 3) to be kicked out of cabinet. It sure puts my mind at ease to know that if my representative in government speaks out on behalf of his constituents he will be "publicly humiliated". As one minister has said the message is clear "So stick to the party line, or you'll go out there and tell the whole world that you're a dumb (jerk) who screwed up." WOW, I can feel my faith in government growing even as I write this. With this sort of open dialogue and innovative thinking being encouraged at the highest levels of government I am sure we will soon have solutions to problems in health care, education and social services. I guess the only positive thing is that we can all feel a lot closer to our ministers as now they are truly like us, being told what to do and to shut up and take it from a leader who was elected by less than a third of the Canadian people.
