The Only Difference Is The Colour Of Their Ties

Over on the side bar there’s a picture and a link, look at the picture, then follow the link to a full write up on the issue. Then come back here and read what Stephen Harper had to say in his 2006 “Stand Up For Canada” policy platform about Aboriginal people and their schools.

Every year for twelve years the Liberals have paid lip service to aboriginal issues. But their real legacy is bad water, bad schools, and bad housing. Every year aboriginal spending goes up, but life for Canada’s aboriginal peoples keeps getting worse. And meanwhile the disputes, claims, and lawsuits pile up.

 

The Liberals should be ashamed of themselves. It’s time for a new approach.

Me thinks there’s another Canadian political party out there that should be ashamed of themselves as well.
