    Yo Stevie! Build the heavy icebreakers if you're so serious about Canadian sovereignty!

    No, really, I'm interested. You are a guy on the cusp of going right or left. What would you do?

    From both sides but ya gotta admit Dion is looking like he's a total nut job in that article.

    Saying if Harper had a green plan the arctic might still be frozen now. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: Global warming must be happening faster then we think. :roll:

    I think both of them should go spend 2 weeks at Repulse bay so they have a clue what kind of environment their talking about.And not in august but in February.

    And everyone else thats an all of a suuden expert with their charts and graphs should tag along with them.

    With the Arctic being the next big scare that everyones going to try make points off then EVERYONE should educate themselves on it because it sure as hell isnt what you see on tv in the south or read here on the net.

    Most people have no idea what the environment is like up here,including me when I first came.Take everything you think you know about weather and snow and winter storms and just forget it because it isnt one bit the same. :wink:

    Well we could send harper and Laureen up heading a dog sled team and carrying a few bags of ice cubes to put the artic back together then he could put the tory flag and the Canadian flag up there to remind Russia that even though he doesn't give a shit about the environment ( and alot of other vital issues important to Canadians) the artic still belongs to Canada.... until he decides to give it as a gift to george wya on his forced retirement... :)

    The arctic and all of nunavut holds the worlds largest supply of drinking water,worth billions times more then all the gas and oil underneath it.

    Think about that for a second.

    :wink:

    That's because these drink companies have succeeded in brain washing us into buying bottled water.. they are bottling the same water you get from your tap and marketing it to people who have to have convenience..they are also sending it south by the truck loads... and getting away with it.. and yes a litre of gas costs less than a litre of water

    So not all are brainwashed but lots are.

    I can't enough bottled water. So much so we leased out the spring water on our property to Coca-Cola.
