Tides Canada: Canada Revenue Agencys

Canada Revenue Agencys: What an extraordinary thing to live a pleasant life in a western nation and yet fear your own government. But the Canada Revenue Agencys new audits of environmental charities like Tides Canada, the David Suzuki Foundation and Environmental Defence in the midst of their continuing warnings about the effects of the climate-poisoning Alberta tarsands project are terrifying, according to The Star. I have praised David Suzuki to the skies, most recently in a column about a performance staged at the Royal Ontario Museum about the damage done by the tarsands. Am I to be audited next and Stephen Harpers hard-right Conservatives are not suited to governing this wonderful country, an easy enough observation on an ill-considered austerity-budget day but true on any day of the year. Writing about this government evokes a fight or flight response, meaning that I type with greater energy while a deep voice warns me, This is unwise. Harperites are sessile, rooted to the ground and unable to pick up and move ... when conditions turn unfavourable, as the New Yorker put it recently in a rather dismissive piece about plant IQ. They cant adapt to the news of climate change so they lash out at those who have. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
