Parliament is now home for the holidays but some senators are still working away to change a recent bill to overhaul consumer safety legislation here in this country. They say the legislation is unconstitutional and I don’t think I can disagree with that.
The Tories have been trying to get this reworked for some time – I think about 2-3 years – but Liberals have been voting against what has been known as Canada Consumer Product Safety Act. As someone that takes Consumer Rights very seriously I think that’s shocking. Maybe the Liberals haven’t got their stuff together but it’s time to work together and get something going. Don’t let the senate do all the work on this one.
I guess we’ll see how this plays out after the holiday break. My guess is that it will move extremely slowly (as it has so far) but maybe we can have something sorted out by February. Consumer Rights is all I care about and it’s near and dear to my heart!
That’s how Rough Riders Roll!
Oh boy. If there is something that’s stuck in my craw, it’s them goshdarn telemarketers always calling me trying to get me to buy their stuff. Just the other day I’m sitting down for lunch, when the phone rings and here is the ensuing conversation that takes place. Here I am expecting a call from my daughter attending 
So as our faithful readers will know, I was recently in Vancouver for a wedding. Now I must say, I did this reluctantly as Vancouver as always been my least favourite places to visit as I ain’t a fan of the locals (to put it nicely). Anyways, I said I’d be there for the wife, and I’m starting to think that this was a mistake. How about a little run down of my take on Vancouver.
Well after fighting it for years now, I’ve had it up to here. It’s time for things to change and I’m taking to the most direct route to unshackle the constraints put upon me by the powers that be. That’s right, speaking directly to the people, the true Canadians out there who want to hear, for once, a real opinion. I’m sick and tired of it, and I think if you’re reading this, so are you.
Consumer Rights Threatened, Man Takes Action
Whoa! and if this wasn’t crazy enough, the car lot owner is asking for an additional million because of the negative press his business has been receiving! HE SOLD HIM AN EXPLODING CAR! For pete’s sake, what a world we live in. If you’re like me then it’s time you got off your haunches and wrote a letter. I wrote one to my MP telling him that I want that case dropped immediately or we should discontinue trade with Australia! This is just the type of case that will set a very bad precedent and I would hate to see it happen on my watch.
Also, try boycotting anything Australian until this case is settled. I know my readers are only a few thousand, but if we all told a twenty people and they told twenty people then soon Australia would have to start listening to us and do what’s right.
