Through the Bank of
Canada, which was established in 1935, the federal government has the power to
borrow money in huge quantities essentially interest-free, and to make such
interest-free funds available not only for its own use, but also for provincial
and municipal expenditures. Such borrowing enabled Canada to get out of the
Great Depression and to finance its participation in World War II. Continuance
of this practice until about 1975 played a key role in creating Canada's
post-war prosperity and in making possible our enviable social programs. As
federal governments have increasingly catered to the private commercial banks,
this practice has greatly declined. Government indebtedness with huge interest
payments has resulted, and our social programs, which, we are told, we can no
longer afford, have been under attack.

Our governments across Canada must presently give priority to paying more
than $60 billion each year out of our tax receipts for interest to private banks
and money-lenders. Through borrowing from the Bank of Canada this expense could
be vastly reduced. If we lose the Bank of Canada, we will lose this
extraordinary potentiality just at a time when public expenditures are
especially urgently needed to protect our environment from such dire threats as
global warming, and when our public infrastructure requires major repair and
rebuilding, to say nothing of all kinds of needs to strengthen our social
programs--especially medicare. We have underused and misused the Bank of
Canada. Rather than lose it altogether in a currency union with the U.S., we
need to revive its full usefulness in support of creative public policy.

The bold is what I'm getting at, but the whole thing just pissed me off.

Well - Im thinking about a 40 of OE for tonight... whose with me?!

[Centaur]

Oh god man.


No, no OE for me again. Ever.

I will drink a case of beer, 6 Keiths and 6 as of yet undecided. I also have a small bottle of vodka for the pre-amp (aka, Skytrain to VanCity).

in ontario at least it is still a valid piece of photo ID if expired, just not good for driving. So you should still get in the bar with it, just don't get pulled over leaving

I still drink that stuff, but it has to be cold as fuck. I usually throw a couple of them in the back of the fridge and leave them there for a couple of weeks and then I'll drink 'em.
