I don’t recognize my nation any longer. I was born in The Dominion of Canada, not The Harper nation or the American GOP Republican States of North America.
How has this happened, can we as
Canadians really be this blind or are we ostriches, sticking our heads in the political sand? This nation has such a climate of political fear now about the opposition, the Bloc and terrorism that we are blinded to the hijacking of our country through the back door.
I despair of the day we shall have to pledge allegiance to the flag of religious xenophobia, but I can see it coming…fast. I wish we had the right to refuse our ballot and have it noted in a federal
election, instead of not voting. That kind of apathy panders to
conservatism but only garners lip service; ‘if you can change the
future but don’t vote too bad for you, our people will and give you
George Orwell’s jackboot to the face for your complacency’.

Interesting that Faytene would say My Canada is separate from The Cry… According to her background/bio presented in the “Missionfest Toronto” 2008 magazine, the two are linked together quite nicely, “Under 4MY Canada in July 2006, she led the CRY 2 (Him)”. http://www.missionfest.org/files/file/MFTmag08-sm3.pdf

When most conferences are being prepared, guest speakers are usually asked to send in some form of a bio and some background so attendees can learn a little about them. I’m not sure who sent Faytene’s information to the organizers of Missionfest in Toronto, but I’m sure if someone other than Faytene did submit it, Faytene would have made sure it met her approval before it was submitted and if it was Faytene who submitted it, then we have the information first-hand. Regardless, the background/bio information would have been provided and approved BY HER at some point.

On another note, I find it interesting that Faytene uses the excuse of “The intention of your research, and who you are exactly, is extremely vague. We have made note that your blog is generally anti-socially conservative and opposed to many wonderful organizations dong great things on our nation.”, in order to avoid answering your questions. I can say with some certainty that Faytene wouldn’t answer any questions I posed to her either, though she knows exactly who I am including my first and last name, exactly what I stand for and she would also be quite familiar with the website I run which is linked from this site.

Let’s face it, she will never be open to public scrutiny. As a matter of fact, she will do everything to avoid it because she knows where it will lead!

“dong great things on our nation…” LOL … Now that’s prophetic.

Sorry kids, giving a tangible gift to an MP or bureaucrat is called lobbying. Thus the being careful to note that the gifts are under $25, perhaps so lobbying rules don’t kick in?

You’d also think that they would like to let people know who the MPs were to 1) see if their efforts worked and 2)see if the MPs really listened to what the kids had to say…

18-35 year olds aren’t kids on a field trip meeting with legislators who don’t represent their ridings.
It was a reception, not a national security meeting.

It’s sad simple questions are painted as threatening, spiritualized and reduced to:

“As far as MPs who attended, that is for them to disclose if they would like to and you can feel free to contact their offices to ask them in person and I am sure their assistants will be happy to tell you if they attended if they feel so inclined to.”

Thanks for the research into this, hopefully more can be dug up, or perhaps an MP could come forward and let us know what’s so important that these kids need to be shuttled to Ottawa to meet their MPs (who should at least occasionally be in their own riding).
