If you're not outraged you're not paying attention (Rick Howe)

They’re getting away with it!! The list is long and detailed but they have pared it down to Dexter's legal fees. What about Hurlburt who charged us over $9000 for a $1000 +/-generator? Where did the "extra" $8,000 go? How many auctions took place in Bedford that Goucher donated a carload of printers and cameras? Samson in Arichat who ate supper then double billed us? Is it true: in Nova Scotia if caught you return stolen goods and you're off free; that the suspects investigate themselves and decide if the police are needed? Not if it was you and I! Darrell Dexter, like the rest, wanted only the best when the taxpayer was paying the bill now that he’s paying? $250 annually non-practicing dues are fine. He made the choice for the higher fees let him pay back the $3,250 annual difference at least. What should also bother us is the fact that nobody federally, MP’s Stouffer, Savage, MacKay, Keddy etc. nobody with clean hands in the legislature and no local politicians, Wardens, Mayors, Councillors have spoken up calling for a proper investigation. The white wash job seems acceptable in all the halls of elected officialdom.
DON'T LET THEM WALK AWAY FROM THIS! Speak up. Sign the petition @ http://www.governmentripoff.com/ demanding a full police investigation and justice for the Nova Scotian taxpayer. It was and is YOUR money not theirs, demand full legal accountability!

PS
A former Conservative MP once known for his tough stance on drugs received a "break" when cocaine possession and drunk driving charges were withdrawn in a plea bargain, an Ontario judge said Tuesday.The deal, with Rahim Jaffer convicted of the lesser offence of careless driving, sparked an angry exchange in the House of Commons after Liberals accused the government of hypocrisy.In convicting Jaffer and fining him $500, the Ontario court judge said he would not interfere with the joint submission by Crown and defence."I’m sure you can recognize a break when you see one," Justice Doug Maund told Jaffer.
Don't you wish you lived under the laws our elected officials do? Don't forget Ernie Fage!
Hold your politicians feet to the fire and you will get better government

  1. thanks always for your informative and thought provoking blog Bruce. but where is the outrage?.. well you know as well as i Bruce that most of us have trouble seeing past the ends of our own noses. Take away our friday paycheck, the mall on saturday, the bar and game on sunday and we will see outrage, but our over payed, elected buffoons treating us with contempt and disdain and hardly anyone notices nor cares if they do. This is the sad truth and i don't know if it has ever been any different... keep up the good work Bruce, even if it all may be in vain.. Francis Scambelleri
