Defence Minister Peter MacKay has blown his file to Kingdom Come.
The procurement of 1600+ Army trucks was halted at the last minute -LITERALLY!!!- when the Treasury Dept. (Tony Clement- that Muskoka Fox in the fuckin' HENHOUSE) found out that the price of those trucks jumped to almost double the $430 million pricetag.
Literally MINUTES before the final bidding ended on the contract. A Day ago.
TELL ME WHY PETER MACKAY STILL HAS A JOB.
TELL ME WHY HIS DEFENCE FILE IS SO OUT OF CONTROL.
MacKay has no grip on the defence file if DND can balloon the cost without you knowing it whatsoever (and have bids go down to the wire).
NO ONE IS FLYING THE PLANE.
help.
-
Yes indeed, Pete has no control whatsoever on DND.
He is supposed to be the oversight.
Himself.
The Minister of National Defence is the Oversight Man for the entire operation.
How did he not know that the cost for those trucks was double and why did beaurocrats at DND say that they were going to ask the Treasury for more money AFTER the bidding was over?
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON IN THE DEFENCE DEPARTMENT?
Why do they feel they can do anything they want, no matter the cost?
Who's head belongs on a fucking PLATE?
Peter MacKay's, that's who.
I want that fucker behind bars.
He has no clue.
NDP Defence critic Jack Harris said that this is yet another example of military procurement run amok, and Peter MacKay has a LOT to answer for here. You just wait until September when Parliament resumes. MacKay will be hung from a yard arm.
HOW MANY SCANDALS DO YOU FUCKING NEED CANADA???????????
HOW MANY?
Are you awake?
Alive?
Aware?
Do you see this shit?
Right before your damn eyes?

Peter MacKay was handed a "Layoff Notice" by one of his own department's unions yesterday.
It was Awesome to read that.
A rep for the Union of National Defence Employees handed MacKay the notice when he wrapped up his photo-op announcement in Victoria B.C.
"We thought we'd give him a taste of his own medicine" said Union President John MacLennan.
"We want him to see how it feels to get an affected letter".
Bravo John.
Your union are my new heroes.
MacKay is a first-class Fuckhead Clown without a clue.
Nail him to the wall at every opportunity.

And guess what Kiddies?
WONDERFUL NEWS TODAY!
The Federal Court ruled yesterday that a lawsuit aimed at overturning last years' election results can proceed.
Conservatives wanted the case thrown out (obviously) but the integrity of our democratic electoral process is at risk, was at risk.
Public confidence has been shaken badly, and the lawsuit was deemed VERY appropriate, "Far From Frivolous" was the actual words.
Let the House of Shams and Scams and Robo-Call fraud fall down.
Let it begin.
Let's clean out some ROT.

It seems like in Canada the people are fighting back hard and having some success.
-
Yes indeed.
People are fighting back. People are waking up.
This was front-page news today in the Ottawa Citizen, along with the news-to-me-and-you-both that DND has set up secret overseas bases in SouthEast Asia, Europe, East Africa and the Carribean.
How come we are just learning about these secret bases, PETER MACKAY?
How come?
Mr. Transparency?
Do tell.
-
You should clarify for non-Canadians what DND means, otherwise they'd think it is Drag-and-drop or Dungeons and Dragons.
-
Oh, I got scandals to tell you. I've left out so much...
Have you heard of Omar Khadr?
He's a Toronto-born kid who was arrested in Afghanistan and accused of killing an American soldier. They said he threw a grenade (when Omar was a child-solider) and they sent him to Gitmo, where he's been for what seems like eternity.
The Harper government has done nothing to have him return to Canada to serve the rest of his sentence, which the Supreme Court basically assumed Harper's gov't would do- two years ago.
We've had Romeo Dallaire and top U.S. Generals give urgent press conferences -HERE IN OTTAWA!- to yell at the Harper government to fulfill their obligation, to stop dragging their feet, and return him to Canada. Public Safety Minister Vic Toews (internet spy Master!) says he doesn't have all the facts of the case, which is the biggest crock of horseshit ever shovelled by an MP.
They know this case inside and out, and the Military officials at Guantanamo Bay have said forever that Omar is NO THREAT TO ANYONE, NOBODY, that he's actually level-headed and a nice kid.
The Harper gang wants nothing to do with this case, but they just look like unconstitutional assholes and pricks by not moving on this.
If they can do it to him (he was born in Toronto remember!) then they can do it to any citizen.
It isn't about Omar anymore. It's about being a Canadian citizen and how the government treats you, or CAN treat you.
-
DND is short for DEPARTMENT OF NATIONAL DEFENCE.
But you could call it dungeons and dragons and you wouldn't be far off....
-
Another fresh scandal:
DND is trying to defend the fact that a Griffon helicopter was used for a fishing trip recently, not for any operations or any military exercise whatsoever.
A fishing trip.
Right.
Was it at Peter Mackay's fishing lodge?
Just asking.
These are YOUR tax dollars, Canada....
-
And ANOTHER WHOPPER of a DND scandal:
Canada's Chief of Defence Staff (General Walt "Numpty" Natynczyk) has racked up over $1 Million in VIP military flights (not commercial airline flights) since 2008.
What does he do? For Canada or anyone else?
Where does he go?
How is no one accountable?
How is no one fired?
-
Stephen Harper has turned down a meeting with Provincial Premiers FOR THE THIRD STRAIGHT YEAR.
He's a fucking moron.
Period.
-
Oh, yeah, the Conservatives also spent 2.5 MILLION of taxpayers money on a monument to attract Chinese business and tourists. It's in Tony Clement's riding of Muskoka Ontario. That's right. I said TAXPAYERS MONEY.
They never asked a soul in this Nation if they could or should do it. They just did it without asking us.
And a Chinese oil firm is buying one of the biggest ones we have in Calgary- the biggest oil swap between China and Canada since, well, never.
HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH OF HARPER YET, CANADA?
Let me know when you have.
-
Americans should note that Forbes magazine and the Republican party have been meeting with Treasury Board President and "COO: Chief Operating Officer of Canada"-(their words, not mine) Tony Clement to find out how the Conservative party runs things here in Canada, which they seem to believe is running smoother than a baby's bum.
When the U.S. Financial Elites are looking for pointers and tips and policies from the most abysmal financial managers in Canadian history,
THEN THEY ARE SOME SERIOUSLY HURTIN' UNITS! Wow!
Did you see the biggest Freudian slip in U.S. History last week?
Mitt Romney had some family lined up on a stage, with t-shirts spelling "ROMNEY" but one of the kids was out of place, and the t-shirts spelled out "MONEY" instead of Romney.
Actually, it was a doctored image. But truer than if it really happened. :)
Yeah.
Elect Mitt Romney.
His scandals will dwarf Dubyas.
Dwarf 'em like an ant to King Kong.
-
And about Tony Clement:
He was just cleared of wrongdoing by an Ethics watchdog in Ottawa, but not before being sternly warned about abusing his cabinet status.
Harper never fires any Ministers for ethics violations, everybody knows that, but the appearance of ethics violations is enough to throw a cabinet ministers' career in question. He will be hounded forever by this. (the G20 Gazebo-Gate).
Now he should be investigated for the Chinese monument spending. How much did he pocket in that scam/rape of the taxpayers for his home riding of Muskoka?
I'm waiting for the Tories to build a giant bronze statue of Clement himself, in Muskoka, at taxpayers' expense, to praise his achievements for the constituency.
Muskoka residents must be DEMANDING IT, signing petitions by the thousands...holding fundraisers, selling Girl Guide cookies...they NEED a Tony Clement STATUE, Dammit!!!!
