Danny Brezhnev

[AdamSmith]

Danny Williams, Newfoundland and Labrador's premier -- no stranger to battles with big business -- took on AbitibiBowater Inc. Tuesday as the province passed legislation to expropriate hydroelectric, water and timber assets belonging to newsprint giant.

And how about George-Bush-Brezhnev? He's nationalizing the banks, investment houses, insurance co's, car companies, etc. Also supports ethanol (aka farm welfare), and exorbitant farm subsidies.

So Danny Williams doesnt like our red-neck, culture-lacking, PM Steve Harper. Big deal, most premiers also dont like him but they dont have the guts of Danny Williams to admit it.

By the way, Danny is a self made man, a multi-millionaire, and Steve works for the government. What a joke of a PM.

I bet the conservatives throw him out before the end of 2009.

Ok, we have one vote in favour of expropriation of private property.

by the way beetle I can just imagine your rorschach tests.

yeah who does williams think he is standing up for his constituents? he should be scooping resources off to these multi-nationals. he's doing abitibi a favor by relieving them of these assets that were just depleting its income statement. williams just might be the kind of politician we need to get control back to the people rather than a bunch of lying mba's.

[mustardman]

Good point jensend, Williams stands his ground and looks after his province.

Jesus you guys are lame and predictable?

[skhadenuf]

Why the hell should those companies have the rights to resources when they arre pulling out. Kinda like the ripoff her in Saskatchewan Weyerhauser closed all it's mills but yet holds the timber rights so no one can try to develope something else. We need more Danny boys to lead this country not the bought off puppets we have now!!!!!

[winwin]

Yes comrades!My favorite is the way the feds nationalized the entire western grain industry in 1943.They sure stamped out those evil big companies by blocking all the exits.
We're all so much better off living in a part of the country where trade is verbotten.Where we are not allowed to use our minds to do other than work the fields.
Governments must use their power to enslave us in order to make us free.

[classicalliberal]

Agree with winwin

Skhadenuf - what differance is timber from land???? If we all chose to SMF (which will never happen), could the government not just take over the land to prevent starvation. That is what we are talking about. We do not want to see things like this occur.
