Is the Liberal Party of Canada listening to ALL 32 million Canadians from coast to coast? Are simply giving power to 100 plus MP's who want to keep their job? Are we listening to the concerns and problems of the 2000 Northern Ontarians whom have lost their job in the Forest Industry? Are we listening to the Farmers who want a strong and united single desk to sell our wheat? Are we listening to the First Nations of Canada and their dire emergency in health, education and infrastructure? Are we listening to the Child Care system its workers and users who need a National Program and standards? and finally are we listening to the lifeblood of the Canadian Economy the hundreds of thousands Small, Medium and Large Business Enterprises whom are in crisis in dealing with the high dollar and its loss of jobs to the USA?
The Reform/Alliance/CPC Harperites as established in the Throne Speech ARE NOT and sadly the Liberal Party of Canada has joined them.

Oh Browner...it's apparent that they are listening to Canadians (although by default). Real Canadians don't want to live in a nanny state where government takes care of everything for them (ie. national day care program)...same could be said with the CWB. Choice is good, how would you feel if government forced it on you that the only hockey team you could chear for were the Habs? Money is on the line when it comes to wheat, barley and the CWB, and farmers should be entitled to have a choice of where they market the wheat they've invested THEIR own money and time with. Outcomes of studies have showed the benefits of both a single desk and marketing choice...although often dependent on who was funding the study. Let's say both are equal, we do live in Canada, a free country (Remembrance Day a few days away) therefore we shouldn't restrict that freedom to western farmers. Ontarians are allowed that choice by the way. Farmers do have smarts, they market all their other crop. Why not wheat?
I apologize for the long winded reply. My point is, by being a coward and not by actually listening, Dion did listen to the wants of Canadians. It boggles my mind why anybody (or anybody that is able to think for his or herself) in this country would want to restrict their freedom and want socialist policies.
