Bad idea
As my father has repeatedly said, the Liberal government’s plan to allow 5000 Gazans into Canada is deeply flawed. At a cost of $5-10,000 per head, the only ones able to afford this will be Hamas supporters, and their proxies.

Does this really seem like a good plan ?

(Do any of the Liberals’ plans sound well thought out?)

Mike Swann

The amount being wasted on this Green Line to nowhere would cover the cost of a facility similar to the new Calgary Scotia Centre in each of the seven Canadian NHL cities.Â

Bob Grundie
(If there was a penalty box in city hall it would have to fit half the team.)
Did the Simpson’s call it?
After continually reading about the gong show that is the Green Line, it struck me: did The Simpsons predict it as well with their iconic Marge vs. The Monorail episode? Seems pretty darn close to me.
Lloyd Farley
(We laughed, then cried a little. We also think you may be onto something.)
