Jeff Smith Senator (Quebec)

I think she along with every True Canadian has a right to be.

Actual names have been changed. ( Legal reasons )
 
 
I don't think pissed really covers it!!!!

Jeff Smith, the Senator from Québec calls senior citizens the Greediest Generation as he compared "Social Security " to a Milk Cow with over a million teats.
Here's a response in a letter from PATTY JOHNSTONE in Ontario ... I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!
Oh sooo true!

"Hey Jeff, let's get a few things straight!!!!!
1.    As a career politician, you have been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.
2.    I have been paying CPP & OHIP for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63).
3.    My Canada Pension payments, and those of millions of other Canadians, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid the account and give OUR money to a bunch of zero losers in return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that would make Bernie Madoff proud.
4.    Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and "your  ilk" pulled the proverbial football away  from millions of Canadian seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for full retirement from age 65 to age, 67.
NOW, you and your "shill commission" are proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN.
5.    I, and millions of other Canadians, have been paying into OHIP & CPP from Day One, and now "you morons" propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because "you idiots" mismanaged other parts of the economy to such an extent that you need to steal our money from OHIP & CCP to pay the bills.
6.    I,  and millions of other Canadians, have been paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because you "incompetent bastards" spent our money so profligately that you just kept on spending even after you ran out of money. Now, you come to the Canadian taxpayers and say you need more to pay off YOUR debt.
To add insult to injury, you label us "greedy" for calling "bullshit" to your incompetence. Well, Captain Bullshit,  I have a few questions for YOU:

1.    How much money have you earned from the Canadian taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political career?
2.    At what age did you retire from your pathetic political career, and how much are you receiving in annual retirement benefits from the Canadian taxpayers?
3.    How much do you pay for YOUR government provided health insurance?
4.    What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are you proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction proposal, or as usual, have you exempted yourself and your political cronies?
It is you, Captain Bullshit, and your political co-conspirators called Parliament  who are the "greedy" ones.  It is you and your fellow nutcase thieves who have bankrupted the Canadian Pension, OHIP and stolen the Canadian
dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers.
 
 
 
And for what? Votes and your job and retirement security at our expense, you lunk-headed  leech.
That's right, sir. You and yours have bankrupted our benefits for the sole purpose of advancing your pathetic, political careers. You know it, we know it, and you know that we know it.
And you can take that to the bank, you miserable son of a bitch. NO,  I didn't stutter.
P.S. And stop calling CPP & OHIP "entitlements". WHAT AN INSULT!!!!
I have been paying in
to the CPP system for 45 years "It's my money"-give it back to me the way the system was designed and stop patting yourself on the back like you are being generous by doling out these monthly checks.
EVERYONE!!! If you like the way things are in Canada delete this.
If you agree with what an Ontario citizen, says, please PASS IT ON!!!!
 
 

Have a GREAT day

Gas City Campground

Campers at the Gas City Campground had a family friendly May Long Weekend.
Most of the campers were locals enjoying a nice staycation at the campground with a few others from further afield. Medicine Hat resident Larry Glauser has been coming to the Gas City Campground every year for the last 10 May Long Weekends.
“My wife Janice and I come out here every year. It’s probably the 10th year we’ve been here,” said Glauser. “So we’ve been through snow, good weather, rains we just love coming out here. It’s the first camping weekend of the summer. Normally this is the first place we come to make sure everything is working good on the RV.”
Kim Hill, also a Hatter, was out for a good time at the campground with her friends. She says this weekend’s great weather surpassed all her expectations.
“It was a fantastic weekend. The weather turned out fantastic. We were expecting the worst and got good weather. It rained for two hours, not even. We just sat under the awning and waited,” said Hill
The Palin family was up from Lethbridge for a fun family weekend getaway. Art Palin says despite all the travel and business of the weekend he, wife Roxanne and sons Ty and Logan had a great time in the Hat. They took their boys swimming at the Medicine Hat Lodge and went down to the Leisure Centre. Palin says he especially enjoyed staying at the campground doing nothing but sitting by the fire.
“I took a day to get settled and a day to pack up,” said Palin. “But there was one day in between when we got to sit around and not do a whole lot.”
Robert Coey and wife Donna stopped at the Gas City Campground for a nice Victoria Day picnic on the way to visit a relative’s house. Daytrippers down from Strathmore, Robert said they love having that extra time the long weekend brings to get down to see family.
“It’s that extra day that is so nice. And it just shortens up your work week,” said Coey.

Press Club Asks For Answers In AP Records Seizure

Angela Greiling Keane | May 13, 2013
In the wake of reports today that the Justice Department secretly obtained phone records of several of AP’s reporters and four of its offices, the National Press Club requests that the Obama administration publicly explain the reasons behind the action.
The Justice Department disclosed to AP in a May 10 letter that the government had obtained last year two months of personal and professional phone records for individual AP reporters and from AP offices in the House press gallery and from AP bureaus in DC, New York and Hartford, Conn. The letter did not provide a reason why, AP said, but the targets of the government seizures and the timing suggested that it might be related to a probe of who leaked information to AP for a story the news organization broke last year about a bombing plot that had been organized by an Al Qaeda affiliate in Yemen.
AP President and CEO Gary Pruitt called the incident “a massive and unprecedented intrusion” into newsgathering and said the records could reveal how AP reporters and editors gather news and what they’re working on.
“This appears to be a gross violation of press freedom,” said National Press Club President Angela Greiling Keane, a Bloomberg News reporter. “If there’s a good explanation for this, the public has a right to hear it promptly.”
The National Press Club is the world’s leading professional organization for journalists and is an ardent advocate of press freedom and open government.
