Stop the apologies already

How far back do we go with all these apologies? They were different times with different prevailing ideologies. We cannot logically judge now the decisions made by past governments, 94, nor 50, 40 or even 30 years ago.

Why does Harper insist on apologizing for all the past deeds done by past governments of this country? Other than pandering for votes that is...

Mr. Harper, let me help you out here.

We the government of Canada, apologize to every person in the past, present and future that we may have offended or will offend, for any and all reasons. Send one dollar to every person on the planet for compensation (cause we know it's not about the money... right...), as I am sure that somewhere, somehow, we have offended every single one of them or their ancestors. That would be somewhere between 6 and 7 billion dollars by the way (which sounds a lot better than mere millions)... and lets call it a done deal.

But Tim, he's a politician. He doesn't know how to not pander for votes because that's what politicians do. See? ;)

Not only that Gayle- Harper is a CONSERVATIVE politician! GASP! And as we all know, the MSM just won't cut a conservative a break. No matter what happens, or how well they do.

Whatever happened to politicians just going around kissing babies? Why do they now insist on giving my tax dollars to every single group who whines loud enough? I am tired of this crap.
