Update

I sent email to Sheldon and Andy to set up a transfer two days ago with no response. I know how to pay the Coutts Three. Although the earnings should exceed the $1,500, the amount I have received from Locals.com is a bit less, so that is pending.

Also, I should mention that we all appreciate those who find thought-provoking articles and post them here, and remind folks that any supporter can post.

Anyone can follow the corporate sponsored, government-approved, filtered, and pre-digested 'mainstream' news media, and it has its uses, but the focus of this site is to share articles that are a bit off the popular narrative and might otherwise escape notice.

An example is the NDP leaders' debate I posted. I actually watched most of it. What did I learn? Hard to say, but I can see why the uninformed find them credible and also that these 'leaders' are out of touch with the present reality. They are still complaining about things that Danielle has already fixed!

All, the same, the NDP should not be underestimated. They talk a good game -- in simplistic, idealistic generalities that are hard to pin down, but can easily sway and recruit the young and gullible.

So, please keep posting.

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!
"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 & OAS for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63). Being a Canadian citizen for over 20 years & paying my taxes, I am eligible at 65 to apply for Old Age Security - OAS (paid for through my taxes).
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...
