If Cdns ACTUALLY wanted to stop Any 50%+1 PM .... how could it be done?

Exec Summary

If we ACTUALLY wanted to stop Harper (or any 50%+1 PM) .... how could it be done?

 

Most people (and certainly the courts) cannot imagine how to do it.

("The Federal Court of Appeals ruled that the fixed-date law was too vague as written to stop the PM from going to the polls")

 

Is he drunk-on-power? (it happens, he's human, okay, just needs containment)

Stupid? (and human, forgivable, but w comeuppance and restitution)

Purposely Malevolent? (must be stopped)

 

Exhortation

Please look again at my position on the ramifications of that one li'l Order in Council from 1940

 

 

Mr Martin,

 

 

Thanks for 'outing' more details on the spit-in-your-face audacity of the 2008 election call in PM Harper can call next election whenever he wants. 

 

Poor ol' in-way-over-Her-head GG (kinda good-lookin'  - even with seal-heart scraps stuck in her teeth)  who had no advisors with any kind of institutional-memory and/or BNA-written Authority to counterbalance the arguments presented by Chubby McCalgary.

 

 

 

Aside but significant

Same thing happened at First Annual Prorogation Pow-Wow

-- Harpie & the Clerk of Privy Council (who constitutionally s/be head of GG's team) on one side while Chris Hogg (who me? ya-think I'm gonna bite the-hand-that-made-my-career?) advises Her Excellency Ms woman-of-colour, francophone-immigrant-exCBCTalkingHead-

 

-see “GG Made Harper Work for Prorogue,”- link in G &M archives and unavailable to me  

-also these events are mentioned on Pg 16 of this article     

--I cite this article from Heard (Google-supplied re" Valpy) even though the author is wholly wrong on same pg 16 saying re: Harpo ...."He is her prime minister, and the only one who can present binding advice"....-- where'd Heard pick up this notion? - new-age, robo-experts, repeating drivel they heard from some fabian/syndicalist wolf in academic-clothing)

 

 

Back to summer 2008

The other aspect was the Monetary, then Economic,then Fiscal nightmare unfolding since 2007 - that exploded into plain view of everybody w Lehman Bros on Sept 15

 

I must admit, based on Aug 2008 ... w the fixed date legislation saying Sept 2009 .... even if I had been PM I wouldn't want to fight an election ar yr after the "shitstorm hit" and as then-PM would have done ANYTHING to slide in an election before the worst-case had a change to materialize .... it just took thick-skinned defiance (and the absence of a political opponent) to actually countermand his own 1yr old amendments to the Elections act to achieve the goal.

 

Even though the Fed etc TARP and all that papered over what s/have been the "end of the world" ...  Firewall Steve (the economics degree-holder ... he'll actually practise the dismal science one day I'm sure) surely knew the bubble was about to burst in late 2009

  

 

NB

This PM (like all is predecessors since the war) is getting absolutely drunk-on-power because HE (thinks he) KNOWS no one can stop him.

 

I hate his actions so far enough. Do you?  I'll help you in any way.

 

 

Hells-Bells Martin ol' Man -   YOU'RE ON TV!
