CBC reports on Canadian Government NAFTA lie

Last week, the Conservative Canadian government interfered in the Democratic primary process by lying to the world about Barack Obama’s position on NAFTA.

This CBC report reveals the Canadian government’s lie, and how John McCain and Hillary Clinton repeated that lie in nearly identical language — as though Hillary was running to be McCain’s vice-president.

It also covers the Canadian government’s apology for its interference in American politics, after Stephen Harper’s administration was rocked by the scandal.

    Where did you get your academic standards statistics? The United States is pretty low on the developped countries list, but high on all the countries of the world when talking about education. Canada is up there, but not at the very top…

    NAFTA TRADE IS DOWN …
    NAFTA TRADE IS DOWN 30%! THERE IS A BETTER WAY TO FIGHT NAFTA (and globilization) buy local foods and goods. grow as much food of your own food as you can. don’t buy things you do not need. we don’t need to get nafta overturned. we just need to make it irrellevent.

    AMERICAN PATRIOTS AND CANADIAN PATRIOTS UNITE.

    Those leaks came from men that may had no right by Canada’s government or Obama’s men to speak out on their behalfs as diplomats to either side. But if NAFTA has a raw deal goning down should the govenments of Canada and the US look in to it. NAFTA has over ruled Canada’s laws so that American companies can go into and take resources (water, lumber, gold etc) for the benefits of the invester of that US company. From the Sunshine state I’m signing off.

    You’re only fooling …
    You’re only fooling yourself. Do you honestly believe that just because there’s a neat looking line on the map it makes the United States negative qualities just simply go away? Actually, according to statistics, Americans are more academically fit than that of Canadians. Hate to burst your self-delusional bubble but the only difference between Canada and the US is the fact that one has a leaf on their flag :P And not to mention one is the worlds leading economic and military giant :)

    yeah, we should make alcohol and tobacco illegal too. don’t you agree? after all, those two drugs kill much more than all illegal drugs put together. i’m sure you agree. all those opposed should hang, right?

    Americans are loud obnoxious and least of all quiet and or academic. Americans should take heed to the fact Britan had to lend them heaps because of their perverse tendency to rape and pillage countries not their own.

    I am proud to be Canadian, we are quiet, and have good manners. Since the States have gone bankrupt why don’t we offer them say twenty k for Alaska so they can restock their food banks in Detroit !

    Leaks. Is that all …
    Leaks. Is that all we have the Mounties for ? To check leaks and the Security Of Information Act? Oh – and better check to make sure that other legislation wasn’t breached. Give me a break , in a country that doesn’t do that , or afford to do that on much more important issues , that are even about Billions Of Dollars and such? Let’s just follow ENRON and be done with it.

    Given that we now …
    Given that we now live on a continent that couldn’t stop the oil companies from ripping us off for fuel (summer 08) , while they boasted their biggest net profits over the season alone , I’d say there isn’t much more that could surprise me. It’s like a murderer being allowed to laugh about their crime on national television , with close up smirks. And we want to talk to who? Police? hahahahahaha

  11. fthrcast Says:

    Canada doesn’t have …
    Canada doesn’t have the potential , nor the desire to implement “any” plan that would make Canada more like the US. That is the problem in fact , and we are paying a very high price for having foolishly lived like this for so many years while we were positioned right next door. Figure that out !
    Canada is looking left and right for a way to bail themselves out , even if it means getting international help. Say Goodbye To The Liberals & we have a chance left.

  12. fthrcast Says:

    How any people , …
    How any people , who call themselves Canadian , can live in Canada , but miss all that was here before they got here , I don’t know. It must be the indoctrined immigration process that leads them to believe that the best way to succeed in Canada is to ignore as much as possible. The entire WEST was developed by white christians , who agreed to a melting pot existance. Nazi’s are from the EAST , and limited everything from dust to aircraft fuel.

  13. fthrcast Says:

    Haven’t you noticed …
    Haven’t you noticed uvgarden , Quebec is being allowed to claim complete non-obligatory rights through their Canadian Sovereignty. It’s not as the Liberals portray , that they want this to stay out of any problems , “they planted many of the seeds that are now TREES”. Suddenly , they all want an out , and Ottawa must provide it for them. Who’s the Nazi? They are Liberal Zionist Bankers who are looking at the prospects of taking Canadian’s money. Point Blank.

    The NDP has been , …
    The NDP has been , and was in fact , one of the first parties to adobt the , stab you in the back policy that coincidentally arose at very inopportune times. When that was noticed , and became an NDP practice , alot of people began believing the Liberals who were making statements about what should be done , and what should be done about it. Look at what the NDP is latching onto now , and where that is all going , with a straight face I might add.

  15. fthrcast Says:

    HOW ! I ASK …
    HOW ! I ASK CANADIANS HOW ?? Can any political party arrive at an election and debate about things like the legalization of marijuana & drugs? If any of them gave a good god about the future of Canada , they wouldn’t even consider speaking of any such thing. That existance – is a clear cut admission of complete guilt , to the point where no informations are important or decisive. Does it really interest us that some people are still claiming it’s an affordable evil? THEY SHOULD HANG.

  16. fthrcast Says:

    The Lieberal Party …
    The Lieberal Party is very nearly a thing of the past , but bringing in people like Jack Layton (being amongst the best) , and looking at his history , we would be condoning the retorical mandate that the Lieberals have built over the years , not just throwing it out. Some people “need” to have retoric and trouble to survive , “then they ask for yet more money to fix things up to a minimum.” It is no wonder the costs are blossoming in some backyards.

  17. sweiland75 Says:

    If you start …
    If you start thinking outside the box (the status quo of either Liberal or Conservative) you will see the NDP are the right (no pun intended) choice for Canada. Too far left? Nonsense. That’s just fear mongering.

    Jack Layton seems incompetent, so does Dion. It’s not practical at all to think NDP is gonna get anywhere ever.
