    :(

    anyone listen to cross-country checkup on cbc radio on the weekend!? ... they were broadcasting from ft. mcmurray where the boom in the town is based on tar sands development ... one guy called himself a former environmentalist who "saw the light" ... he went on to call environmentalists anti-human ... it really disgusted the shit out of me ... and made my loathing of rex murphy that much more intense ... :lol:

    Nobody ever bitches about how uneducated they are, but people do bitch about the price of gas.

    Quick question, what percentage of the Canadian budget is already spent on education?

    interesting juxtaposition in the pic though

    Maybe because they are uneducated, is the reason why they don't bitch?

    it's selected ... so, not sure what the percentage is ... education is generally a provincial matter so transfer payments from the federal gov't go to provinces to be used for education ...
