It is reported a number of protesters managed to board Stephen Harper's flight; no confrontation occured as standard protocol applied, Government was seated in first class while regular taxpayers could only afford second class in the rear.

Now a word from our sponsors, Ontario Tourism...
Canadian man with no criminal history banned from USA for trying marijuana decades ago as a teen.
James Sward readily admits it: he has tried marijuana. More than once. He just never imagined it would get him banned from the United States. On a recent trip to the U.S., border officials asked the British Columbia elevator mechanic about his drug history. He was honest. Maybe too honest, he said. He admitted to getting busted carrying pot as a teen – though he was never charged or convicted. But when he admitted to smoking the drug, he was flatly denied entry and banned.
I got a Facebook page !!!
It's just hopping busy with hits, all my Canadian friends are on it! Both of them!

The Canadian Economy steamrolling right along doing tickety-boo just fine thank you; one of the few economies in the world that seems to have entirely sidestepped this current world recession as if it wasn't even there.
The Federal Government deserves credit given where credit due; they saw it coming and planned accordingly; had to tighten 'our' belts....
... and some expenditures had to be cut to save costs. The Coast Guard Station on Vancouver's waterfront at Jericho Point for example; the citizens just having to do with less services...
... less funding for social sports leagues or uniforms.
Tightening our belts easier for some than others of course - it's hardly a walk at the beach for the politicians.
Richard Branson has offered to take B.C. Premier Christy Clark on a kitesurfing ride. The one condition? She has to be naked.
There's definite advantages to living in a booming economy but it's not glitter and glam for everybody.
