Veterans Put Union To Shame – Another Proud Victory

Mulder

Several months ago I blogged about a union complaint over a city councillors aide cleaning up a steaming pile of shhhhhhaving cream on the floor in the city’s main library.

In Scugog, a councillor had lowered a flag to half mast on a Saturday and the local union filed a grievance stating that this was a union responsibility. After getting lashed from the veterans groups, the union has decided to withdraw the grievance.
I am pleased to see that there is still hope and sanity in the world.

Safe Injection But No Safe Inhalation

Mulder

I just read a post and a dozen or so comments at Jesse Gritter’s blog regarding safe injection clinics. And although I usually share many views Jesse has, I have to say that in this case I have to disagree.

Something is definately wrong in this country when we ostracize smokers, boot them out of every government building, out of every restaurant and push the smokers off hospital property to have a smoke but we provide a nice cushy private room with a sink and free needles for heroin addicts to shoot up.

Think about that. We are punishing those who put taxes into the government coffers by using a legal substance and we give law breaking heroin addicts a nice cushy place to shoot an illegal substance into their veins.

And now the Harper government is giving the clinics enough money to stay open for at least another year.

Why Stephen…..why????

I Guess I Am Not The Only One Thinking We Are Getting Screwed

I would love to think I inspired this artwork, but with the cost of the stamp at 49 cents I think it was created before my blog as the price of sending a letter in Canada is higher these days.

The below stamp can be found at CaledoniaWakeupCall.com

Now I have been toying with the idea of a new logo. So far my terrible paint shop pro skills have garnered this.

Can you comment on what you think the shaded circles represent?
