This evening was the lighting of the Christmas tree at the Legislature and the temperature was beautiful.
Andy Scott was there with his beautiful wife Denise.
I once again told Andy to get rid of those glasses but to no avail.
Anyway? I finally found the reason he’s wearing those eyewear?
Maybe he’s trying to impersonate the person inside this blog???

CANADIAN FEDERAL ELECTION - COULD THE GREEN PARTY PLAY A ROLL???
DADDY?? WHAT'S ADD????
"Daddy?"
"Yes, honey?"
"What's ADD?"
"ADD...well, it's a special ability,
honey... a way of thinking about things
some people have."
"Like who?"
"Oh, a lot famous people, maybe people you
wouldn't know of yet...but the main thing is, a
very big number of people with ADD have accomplished
some of the most amazing and famous things in
our world today. They talk about it in the news
sometimes, like on that show "ADD Millionaires."
So maybe that's where you heard that word.--is it?"
"No daddy...actually, I heard a teacher in school
saying that ADD was something they called
kids who were bad...they said they had a dis-order
or something and weren't even as smart
as the other kids."
"Really? I'm surprised a teacher would still be
talking about that, these days. That was all
a really long time ago, before people knew what
"ADD" really meant. These days, someone with ADD
usually gets picked out to be a leader or something
--anyway, it's certainly not considered a "bad"
thing now...I guess that teacher was just
reminiscing about the dark ages. Does that answer
your question?"
"Yes...But daddy?"
"What, honey?"
"I have special abilities too! Does that mean
I'm ADD?"
(laughs) "Well, honey, I don't think so.
You see, you're kind of born with it or you're
not. But that doesn't mean you won't do amazing
things yourself one day...I know you will. You just
have to do things the way that works best for you.
You'll do great things too--just wait and see!"
...Can you imagine it?
...We can.
To find out how we're changing
the meaning of ADD,
go here before 11:am today--
your ticket is waiting for you

Still collecting signatures

After surviving the heat waves of the summer, the brisk winds of the fall and preparing for the snowstorms of winter, Charles Leblanc is still collecting names for his petition.
Leblanc, who has been camping in front of the Fredericton legislature for more than five months, is still busy explaining to people what attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is and why the public should worry about children being medicated for the disorder.
"I'm looking for a committee, a public committee, to go around the province and study the issue of ADHD and stop young kids, as young as four years old, from taking Ritalin," said Leblanc.
"I mean, these kids are highly intelligent, they could be the future politicians, they could be the future Wayne Gretzky's, they could be the Bill Gates' [of the future]."
With more than 9,300 signatures, Leblanc is aiming for 10,000 before he considers letting a politician present it to the House of Commons.
Former Opposition House Leader, Bernard Richard, was supposed to present Leblanc's petition, however, Leblanc said he has now asked Fredericton North Liberal MLA T.J. Burke to present it.
"Hopefully T.J. will give a good, emotional presentation."
Leblanc has been traveling across Fredericton to find people who understand the issues surrounding ADHD. He said Ritalin is over-prescribed in this province, especially in Fredericton.
"I get a lot of [signatures] from junkies. I mean, I'm the man on the street. I went up to the rough part of town. A lot of these kids… told me they were forced on Ritalin at a very young age and now they are on cocaine and dilaudids."
Leblanc has spent a lot of time talking to Fredericton's youth. Until last week, he visited both UNB and STU campuses. He said he was told he wasn't allowed on UNB campus.
Reg Jerrett, the director of UNB Security, said Leblanc is mistaken.
"It's not that he's not allowed on UNB campus; solicitation is not allowed on UNB campus," explained Jerrett. "So, going around soliciting names, according to the university policy, is not permitted."
Leblanc said not being able to discuss the issue with young people is unfortunate.
"It's too bad because these kids… know what I'm talking about when I mention the word [ADHD or Ritalin]," said Leblanc.
"There are a lot of stories from students at UNB who don't have ADHD [but] they crush the Ritalin to pass their exam(s)," Leblanc explained.
"We've got a major problem here."
According to Jerrett, no problems concerning Ritalin abuse has been brought to the attention of UNB Security.
"I'm not aware of a problem of that nature on campus and quite frankly, that's the first time that I've heard about it," said Jerrett.
Leblanc said that by "drugging" the youth of today, there could be harsh consequences in the future.
"These are the future taxpayers. What are they going to be in charge of in about 20 years from now: a bunch of druggies?"
Leblanc is planning on staying for "as long as it takes" to form a committee and have the issue of over-prescribing Ritalin addressed.
"I did achieve my goal to educate the public of what's going on here and what I want to achieve [now] is to have a committee go around the province and treat these kids with ADHD with dignity and not drug them. I will stand until the end of time but I don't expect the government to listen."

God's Minute!
THE LORD WILL GIVE STRENGTH TO HIS PEOPLE; THE
LORD WILL BLESS HIS PEOPLE WITH PEACE.
( PSALM 29:11 *NKJV )
Dear Charles,
Now in this World today it is hard for most people
to find any peace! Confusion abounds no matter where
we go. We were warned about this by our Savior Jesus
Christ, for He said; THESE THINGS I HAVE SPOKEN TO
YOU, THAT IN ME YOU MAY HAVE PEACE. IN THE
WORLD YOU WILL HAVE TRIBULATION; BUT BE OF
GOOD CHEER, I HAVE OVERCOME THE WORLD.
( JOHN 16:33 )
After All; FOR GOD IS NOT THE AUTHOR OF
CONFUSION BUT OF PEACE, AS IN ALL THE CHURCHES
OF THE SAINTS. ( 1 CORINTHIANS 14:33 )
Therefore Charles, when you find yourself troubled
always look to Jesus Christ; FOR HE HIMSELF IS OUR
PEACE! (EPHESIANS 2:14) A loving caring peace that
we become filled with on our spiritual journey. And that
is only one of the blessings we receive on that journey,
for it is also written; THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT IS LOVE,
JOY, PEACE, PATIENCE, KINDNESS GOODNESS,
FAITHFULNESS GENTLENESS, SELF CONTROL.
AGAINST SUCH THINGS THERE IS NO LAW.
( GALATIANS 5:22-23 )
So Charles, it is my prayer that; THE PEACE OF
GOD WHICH PASSES ALL UNDERSTANDING, WILL
GUARD YOUR HEART AND MIND THROUGH JESUS
CHRIST, ( PHILIPPIANS 4:7 ) now and always! Amen.
With My Love & Prayers,
your servant Allen
