Yes I must charles had better explain himself, for someone who has been so critical of the Irving family business, it sounds like a truce or they are working things out. LOL
Mr. Irving was at the legislature for the announcement of $250 million for forestry industry. How much of that money will be going to help out Irvings.
What are the Irvings getting for Christmass - $250, 000,000.oo from Bernard Lord and did you see the four new double hull protroleum tankers laoding in Courtney Bay they had built offshore (South Korea) . Wonderfull and people think there is no Santa Clause .
That doesn't mean you need to spit in a guys face at christmastime. There's never a reason for rudeness, and shaking a guys hand doesn't mean you are going to change your mind tomorrow. We've also seen early pictures of Charles shaking hands with many PC's.
Particularly our religious commentors should heed the example set by Christ, by no means was Jesus uncivil to those in power, in fact his greatest criticisms were for those of the middle class who did nothing but talk.
Perhaps there are mostly hebrews here and those who only read the old testament, but just to let you know, there is actually what we call a "NEW" testament where Jesus preached a whole new approach, and 'an eye for an eye' wasn't part of it. Actually, he turned that saying around so that we would judge OURSELVES, not others (if YOUR eye offends thee, pluck it out).
Irvings do what every business does-squeeze every available drop out of governments and reduce operating costs as much as possible (there's no point in being 'righteous' if it means you go out of business).
Is it Irvings fault we elect half wits and spineless lackeys? Well, I suppose somewhat, since their newspapers talk about them as if they are geniuses. But how many in New Brunswick vote NDP-the ONLY voice that says they will stand up to Irving? How many vote for independants and not party hacks? How many RUN themselves? People get the democracy they deserve. If you don't like it, DO something about it. Join the NDP, run as an independant, or support an independant. Don't be surprised if the extant of your political activity has you complaining in blogs has you irrelevant to the political process-and those in power.
A good Christmas gift. $250 million for Irvings and boots on the butts for the public. Good one. Bernie Lord made it for himself. Surely there will be pay back for him.
With another Christmas Season upon us, I thought I would pause to think of our New Brunswick political leaders and their contribution this year, and provide them with appropriate presents. Although some of you may think that they should all get a lump of coal, I think you may find that my presents are a little more thoughtworthy.
For Elizabeth Weir, an autographed copy of the biography of Benedict Arnold. Thanks for helping Premier Lord silence the People's Voice in the Legislature.
For the N.B. Conservative Party, a new excuse other than "prior Liberal governments are to blame for the current bad state."
For the provincial NDP leader, the cat that stole her tongue, or medicine for that sore throat.
For Saint John Major Norm McFarlane, an autographed biography of Joey Smallwood, the man who brought Newfoundland into Confederation in 1949 and, with his 50-year, unindexed deal with Quebec, delayed their prosperity for 50 years. Thanks, Norm, for the 25-year, multi-million dollar tax break on the Irving-Repsol LNG terminal.
For Premier Bernard Lord, a lifetime supply of Moosehead, a Saint John Seadogs hockey sweater, and a great big boot from the New Brunswick PC Party.
For Shawn Graham, the onset of puberty to get him ready for the Premier's job.
i was reading that news rumour site, and this was posted on one of the site pages :
December 24, 2005 What Would You Honestly Ask For, If Santa Could Really Bring it ?
Well for one thing, at 55 years of age I personally feel too old to ask Santa to drop me off, a Winning Loto 649 Multi Million Dollar Ticket.
Here is a list of things that I would like to see Santa either drop off to me or leave for for me, same thing when you stop and think about it, isn't it.
I'm just going to spit them out on this screen as they pop into my crazy fried brain cells { lol } And please be rest assured I'm just not making up my wanted or wish list, because of the Sentiment and Emotion that's Associated with this time of year, Christmas.
I would love to see Santa leave under our family Christmas Tree this year One Of Our Family Pet Dogs by the name of Trixie. She had to be put down this past November 8 th / 05 at the Recommendation of our Family Veterinarian, Due to Old age .
She used to drive us all Nuts at times, But Boy do we all ever miss Her Methods of Driving Us All here Nuts and Crazy.
Next I wish Santa could leave me unstoppable Faith and Belief In God, if indeed there truly is one, no matter what he or she or It may be ?
I think my second or Nick Name should be " Doubting Thomas " The truth be known, I envy anybody who can honestly say they Believe In God, and more importantly live and show by Personal Actions of what Christianity is all about.
I would also love to see Santa make it possible for me and for everybody else for that matter, to be able to talk to former Family Members, Loved One's and Friends, who are not with us this Christmas Season as a Living Entity, due to the Fact, they are Dead, and have crossed over to the other side, if indeed there is life after Death.
I'd love to be able to talk for Just Five Minutes to All my Family Members, Friends, and former Members of the United States Marine Corps that I served with many years ago in Vietnam, at the Da Nang Airbase, and went through Boot Camp with. They were just the best of Friends, and greater bunch of guy's that a person could have for a Friend or Friends. Semper Fidelis, Hoooooo Rahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Gung Ho, Gung Ho.
Next Item on the list would be, the Eradication of all Suffering in the world today, whether it be Physically or Mentally. { I don't think this one will be left under the tree, when you take into consideration the amount of People Unemployed, or losing their jobs day after day for whatever reason.
Eradicate all Hunger in the world, the Problem of Homelessness for many people. } And Santa, just in case you're not aware of it, you won't have to look very hard even here in Saint John, New Brunswick to see all the above happening. That's just the way it is.
And if I've been good all year, could you please stop all the Wars that are currently happening in the world this-Christmas, and please keep any more from starting up again for the rest of time. Do you also think you could spread some of your Magic Dust over the Worlds Population and have it make all the People on the earth and in the Future, just be able to get along with one another, and be able to allow the people in the world today to be able to accept one another for Just Being who and what they are.
I'd also really appreciate it if you could make every type of Crime go away as well this year, and in future years.
And I'd really dig it, if you could leave a cure for this Degenerative Osteo Arthritis I've been fighting for the past 15 years, so I would be classified as being Employable Once again.
It's been a pretty boring and useless life for the past 15 years. That's all I can think of for now Santa, but if I think of anything else between Now and the time you start you're enormous trip around the world tonight, I'll be sure to pass it onto you either by Mental Telepathy or Via e-mail.
Oh BTW Santa I almost forgot : Will you also leave the world this year, A Cure For CANCER, AIDS, And also teach our Son's And Daughter's to Please stay away from ever getting involved with DRUG'S, and Help those into Drugs to get off them, and Stay Off Of Them.
And also help those Afflicted with a Gambling Addiction to get off of that as well That's All I want so far, for Christmas this year.!!
I've tried to be good this year, but I'm only Human.

Gifts ideas for province's leaders
With another Christmas Season upon us, I thought I would pause to think of our New Brunswick political leaders and their contribution this year, and provide them with appropriate presents. Although some of you may think that they should all get a lump of coal, I think you may find that my presents are a little more thoughtworthy.
For Elizabeth Weir, an autographed copy of the biography of Benedict Arnold. Thanks for helping Premier Lord silence the People's Voice in the Legislature.

Bob:
Santa says try "PENNSAID" lotion for your aching degenerating joints!
Gotta see your doctor though. It's prescription.
Santa uses it himself after a hard night on that old cold sled! It works wonders!
HO! HO! HO!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!!
SANTA
