Good Day to be Canadian
In case you missed it, the US Supreme Court handed down a landmark ruling this past week. For our friends south of the border, if you were already concerned about the integrity of your democracy get ready to poop your drawers, because unions and corporations are now free to purchase and air advertising for or against political candidates.
At least you can look forward to political ads brought to you by Kraft Cheesy Macaroni, now available in white and sharp cheddar!
A candidate for deliciousness
Really, the United States should just consider cutting out the political middle-men and elect corporations to office. My vote would go to Ed Hardy. No seriously, this company has managed to convince scores of people to wear clothing smothered in artwork so horrendous it’s an offense to fashion, not to mention the eyes. That kind of salesmanship has got to translate into good governance.
Something is wrong with this chick's face
On the day I read this story I felt it a good day to be Canadian. While Republican appointed justices were responsible for opening the gates to corporate “free speech,” our conservatives here at home have worked, in the past, to close those doors. Love him or hate him, you have to at least respect that Stephen Harper isn’t nearly as batshit insane as his counterparts down south.
Harper closed those doors in Canada so that in the future a similar case as that just decided by the US Supreme Court will be heard by the Canadian Supreme Court.
The same decision will be reached as down south.
Alright, I’ll bite. Do you have a source shows evidence of this?
