Is Harper Against Free Speech and Freedom of the Press?

Harper is gagging the military and the media. Read Blast Furnace here and here for some disturbing but insightful commentary. Harper is a clear and present danger to democracy and freedom of speech.

He demands total control over the political messaging from his Cabinet and Caucus, and given the Ritz, Sparrow, Cannon worker gaffes and others, one can sympathize. But to shut up the military and the freeze out the media for pure political purposes is not leadership. That shows he is not interesting in serving the needs of a free and democratic Canada, only his own hidden agenda and a personal pursuit of power.

Be afraid of this man…be very afraid - especially if he gets absolute power from a majority government. One can only imagine what he would do to the rights and freedoms of Canadians in such an event.

Harper is about power and politics. He doesn't care about people and progress. He is not a leader. He is a MISLEADER!

    Talk about a ridicolous over-the-top rant. You are losing touch with any sense of any reality. You arrogant liberals will be destroyed in this election. Harper will get his majority and continue to move the population to the right in an incremental way. Sorry Ken, but your party had the chance to properly govern, but instead you stole millions and millions of dollars from the Canadian public. You broke their trust. And you are now punished.

  2. Harper is about power and is willing to use the government at the expense of the people to pay the people who helped him to power.

    Harper believes rules Election Canada places on elections are for others, not for him and his party, because he has the power.

  3. Totally agree with your comments here! Have expressed similar opinions on my blog. Harper with a majority would be scary. Very scary! In fact, at times he has scared me having a simple minority.

    /btw Saw you on TV for the first time the other night. You looked good! A 'celebrity' in our midst. WOW!!! :-) :-)

    LOL. You liberals are sure something. VERY SCARY. Actually with a majority, I am sure Harper would eat all of the children while, at the same time, put soliders in our streets...with guns. I am not making that up.

    Remember what your party did with a majority. You broke the trust of Canadians by stealing millions of dollars. All you think about is power - absolutely no principles. Do whatever it takes to win. You liberals are sickening.
