LNG project is a perfect example of taking from the poor and giving it to the rich. That is the kind of Robin Hood or Hood Mr. Bernard Lord is. Let the poor pay the property taxes. Why a multi-billionaire should do that. Multi-billionaire got to make more money. That is the real philosophy and ideology of Lord Government. Rest is baloney.

How did you find that out? The reason that they would never want those
three would be because they would bring the truth out and they surely
would
not want that would they!

You got it. Lord is allergic to truth. That is what the outgoing Auditor General Darrel Wilson is basically saying especially on the issue of Orimulsion.

However, two-faced Brad Green is saying Lord government is transparent. Total bull.

Charles: You must bring this matter to the attention of the Premier's Council on the Status of Disabled Persons that what Lord Government, its cronies and supporters really think about disabled community. The following was a statement by one of the Lord's supporters.

GOVERNMENT WORKERS SHOULD GO ON THE STREETS LATE AT NIGHT!!!!

Spinks said...

I pointed this out in the earlier blog. Given the context of the back and forth it looks like it was actually someone against Lord who posted that although given the anonymity I'll agree it's a little hard to tell. Tough to jump on anything when just about everyone's loggin in anonymous.

well I can say with all certainty that charlie is exactly right on this one and I do not choose to be anonymous because I too was told this information straight from the horse's mouth good work charlie....

could be Saint John if the LNG blows up...

There is no question that remarks about special Olympic were made by a Lord supporter. The context was carefully reviewed. What can you expect from a racist premier and his supporters. Lord also says his racist remarks were taken out of context. Very common defense.

The purpose of these remarks was very obvious, to silence the critics of Lord.

Spinks you have very little credibility. You are also the one who attacked a minority who works for CBC saying that the person was incompetent without any supporting information other than gossip.

Spinks said...

I'm not going to get into the CBC debate again unless you really wish to go there, except to say it was no attack. It was based on observations as a viewer, ratings and information from CBC staff. This isn't Russia so I'm allowed to have an opinion even if it contradicts 80% of the people here. Even still, the viewers and taxpayers will decide the fate of CBC not this forum, although the viewers appear to have already decided given their lacklustre numbers.

I will reiterate my personal feelings that Lord is no racist. Again, not my favourite guy and I don't for a minute think he's done any great things for this province but these type of attacks are desperate measures by some radicals who are looking to demonize Lord with little to no evidence. If he's guilty of a hate crime, the police would or will charge him and he will no longer be premier. If that day comes I stand corrected. Until then, this is nothing more than a smear campaign.

Here's the comments as best as I can interpret them - I've added who appears to be a Lord supporter and who doesn't in caps after the anonymous given the back and forth. Could be more than two people but doesn't seem to be. You decide.

"Do the Government need all the tax dollars they can get their hands on???"

Yeah they do if they're going to do everything being asked by the people on this site.
# posted by Anonymous (Lord supporter) : 12:10 PM

Do not forget that government needs tax dollars for:

1.Bernie Lord's trips abroad. Around North America and Larry's Gulch. For his friends to visit Larry's Gulch.
2. Tax breaks for Irvings
3. Employment for Bernie's cronies
4.Trips to New York and beer for $90 a glass + same amount for a Humberger.
5. Bernie's salary and perks and his ministers's salary and perks
And on and on. Sure government needs tax dollars.

Now these poor people. Bernie will say help yourself as he is helping himself.

What do you want, the premier of NB to work for free and never go anywhere to promote NB. Who's he going to hire except people he trusts. Would you hire your enemies? Give me a break.
# posted by Anonymous (Lord supporter) : 12:56 PM

Yeah, right. If he is promoting the province then I have a bridge for sale.

If you call cronyism and patronage just hiring friends then what can one say. Long live patronage!! Must be your slogan.

Where's your bridge?
# posted by Anonymous (Lord supporter): 6:40 PM

Same place where Lord is promoting the province.

That's a lot of bridges. I thought you said you only had a bridge for sale?

As they say in the press, let the people decide.

Spinks said...

Although instead of trying to figure out if someone anonymous voted for Lord it would be better for us to agree that this was a stupid comment. I could care less if he supports the Marijuana Party. It's still pretty derogatory towards those with special needs.

Randy Dickinson at the Premier's Council surely has better things to do then investigate a Blog but maybe I'm wrong.

Anonymous said...

As far as Lord being racist is concerned it is clear from his remarks in the legislature. Those remarks were reported in the media. You need not go far. Whether courts can convict him is a separate matter. There are members of KKK who lynched and killed blacks in 1950s and 60s, they were well known in the communities having done that and yet they remained free. Only few and far between were charged and if ever got convicted they were already in their eighties and dying. Lord being Premier of this province will get away with it too. Law does not come through for the victim more often than otherwise.

As far as discussing CBC there is no problem but you were smearing the reputation of a person without any proper backup information other than hearsay and gossip and that is where you went wrong big time. That is no longer discussion, using your words, it was demonizing.

Besides the sequence you have to look at the times. Earlier comments were at 6 PM later offensive comments were made at 8.45 PM so there goes your sequence theory. It does not make any sense.

The person who made the comments exactly knew what he was doing. Let us face it that those comments were meant to demonize the site and denigrate it. Charles has said many times that someone at Irving told him that he was limited (or retard). Now Charles’ Blog is definitely not friendly to Lord so according to this person it was net by a retard and all those who support and give argument against Lord are involved in a Special Olympics or are retards. Surely the person who made the remarks knew what he was doing. There was clear-cut attempt to discredit the site and imply that it carries no weight. It can only come from a Lord supporter who was worried that Lord is being exposed for his blunders

Spinks said...

Red herring but you're entitled to you opinion.
The police will decide on the hate crime allegation.

Spinks said...

By the way I took the comments between Lord and anti-Lord from start to finish without leaving any out so I'm still not sure where your theory comes from a logical perspective, but I'll leave it to the readers to decide.

Anonymous said...

Who is more expert on red-herring than you Spinks? Now you see the errors of your ways and you come up with this rhetoric.

As far as deragotory remarks about disabled community I am not sure what you are trying to prove and what your concern is. Especially when you insist that it was by an-anti-Lord person. It is not clear what your motives are in this case. Are you trying to protect someone?? Yourslef???

???IS THIS WORTH THINKING ABOUT???
A little reminder for those who like to always point the finger and criticize individual comments that tend to try and show or in most cases expose the modern day brain washing by Personal, Corporate and or Political systems of this decade and the very different time we as average common folk are living.

Being taken advantage of and or being manipulated into believing that which is not always true but are led to believe if it is said by someone other than you it must hold some sort of validity.

Here is a great example of how this works-

When you can be so blatant to put a commercial on television and literally prove to the public that you can rip them off right in front of their eyes and exploit it as a great thing is quite amazing and shows that exploitation comes in many forms and if you dress it up just right you can slip it by the best of them and rake in the profits.

Example:
the new Cadbury slims, they tell you if you don't like the large bar (the one that at least by size shows you what you've gotten for your buck) you can now get the new half as thick bar in stores now!

The catch:
-Cadbury Slims-This ad has confirmed that if you put it across as a good thing you have just proven that you can get the same price for half of what you have been selling and no one is the wiser, the bigger bar is slowly replaced with 50% less of what you were getting and you still pay the same price.

The company sits back and in the end has just made 50% more in profits, reduced the size of another product and without you the unaware consumer even catching the switch.

My Point??-Before you buy into what those who suggest is a great move forward and or is necessary for change toward a better future checkout the package in it's entirety and be sure the whole package is still intact and also that it didn't loose some of it's content in it's new representation to you the public.

Please remember before you tend to jump on someone for giving you more than one way of looking at the things put before you, it is exactly for that very reason you need as many ways to examine something as possible
and blogsites are fast becoming that outlet to do just that,

There is a little something wrapped up in every comment and eventually you can put a clearer picture of the overall together to find the answer so please help to be productive in your criticisms
as a better way of finding the truth may be lying beneath the surface of the overall and remember these individuals are NOT professionals they are a large group of people whom as I, Have seen this manipulative maneuvering to get things into place without you being none the wiser played out too many times and so are trying to give you many individual ways of seeing this.

And finally you must also remember that elected officials did not get into office because they were in the right place at the right time most are well educated on how to manipulate you the public into believing that they can give you something for nothing or that no other candidate can, Representation and packaging is everything when trying to get something by you the public.

And so before kicking each others asses on this or any other blogsite of this nature, try to remember that based on the principle of fairness and the endless manipulative maneuverings we face by many out there for Personal, Political, or Corporate gain of any kind, lets count each comment as a diversified way of viewing it before making a quick judgment of our own as they are purely amateur ways of pointing out what we each of us as individuals may have missed in that very process and use this as a new and productive way of getting the truth out.

Yeah, no doubt we are exploited alright. By politicians and big business. When they are reminded of the exploitation we are told "it is your own fault". May be it is because people in general are trusting.

Anonymous said...

Give yourself some credit, if someone called you stupid. you'd be offended. Yet you are constantly complaining that you are exploited, that is your fault, get up and do something for yourself, making excuses for your own misery and failure is just plain wrong headed, you are exploiting yourself by not doing more to improve your life. If others can, why can't you.

Hi Charles ,
just to let you know Ivan Court is on the committee for a month now. Able and Bruce did not get on the committee because the committee is large enough, I guess. That's just crap.
There were 3 of them that wanted on the committee now 2 resigned last Monday evening so that should mean 2 out of the 3 should be on. Lets see what the assholes do there next meeting. I don't mean the That's residents on the committee either. I mean the government and Irving people
I will let you know when I know something.

Ivan Court is on the Liasion Committee of the Canaport LNG, but Abel
