Ah, such are the problems of working in a white heat...or some such.<br /><br />And to answer Leftdog, I have no moral force with the Liberals, and besides Iggy is calling them to vote the line. I did write Guergis because she may mad enough to vote against the Cons, but who knows.Mary Soderstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265519935852076762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-37631553944903261372010-08-31T14:47:26.102-04:002010-08-31T14:47:26.102-04:00Great idea and thank for doing this - FYI N Cullen...Great idea and thank for doing this - FYI N Cullen is Nathan Cullen not Neil and Bruce Hyer and Dennis Bevington.

Where are their names and addresses? Your post still reeks of theatrics by going after New Democrat MP's only. <br /><br />What about Conservative MP's? are you emailing them as well. In fairness to your efforts, I recognize that dealing with the Conservatives is like talking to a brick wall. However, don't paint the 12 New Dems as being evil incarnate on the issue. Be consistent.leftdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06936887870919391739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-55927369944720658522010-08-31T13:22:37.973-04:002010-08-31T13:22:37.973-04:00I'm not a Liberal and never have been, I'v...I'm not a Liberal and never have been, I've been NDP through thick (rare) and thin (far more frequent.) But I'm really angry this time. Let the Liberals who are upset get after their members. It's time for people who care about the NDP to put some pressure on Layton and the guys. (Intersting that of the 12 who voted with the Conservatives, 10 are male.)Mary Soderstromhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09265519935852076762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3273302883043906742.post-16401685094558586632010-08-31T13:19:44.382-04:002010-08-31T13:19:44.382-04:00I trust that you have also written to the 8 Libera...I trust that you have also written to the 8 Liberal Members of Parliament who voted with the Conservatives to end the Registry as well? <br /><br />By the way where were the Liberal Members of parliament when a vote on pay equity came around? Oh wait. I forgot, the Liberals killed pay equity for women by sitting out a budget vote. What about Child care plans which included a womens right to chose - oh wait, I forgot, Liberals Members of parliament broke with Iggy on that as well and killed it with the Cons.<br /><br />The Liberals don't care about women - their voting patterns tell the tale.

I know people in Outremont who plan to vote Bloc this time; not all are indépendantistes - some simply prefer the Bloc's take on this and other social policies. <br /><br />This all stems from a US-derived myth, that effete urbanites who don't understand the reality of life in rural and wilderness areas, wanting to take farmers' and other non-urbanites' guns away. That is nonsense. I'm as urban as they come, and don't know a single city-dweller who feels that way, not even the vegetarians. <br /><br />I understand why they need trucks, cars and other private vehicles too, but they have to register those - as they are potentially hazardous. Why not firearms?lagatta à montréalhttp://www.lemab.canoreply@blogger.com
