Open letter to Canada’s soon to be ex-Prime Minister:

Mr Stephen Harper,

It is with deep regret I have to become involved in the political scene due to your complete ineptitude and callous lack of respect for Canadians, Canadian law and your cavalier attitude regarding climate change. You are lying when you say Canadians don’t care, we do and enough of us care enough about this matter that we are uniting to force you from Canadian politics for good Mr Harper.

Have I made myself clear?

You embarrass us older Canadians and you have to go.

End of story, you Mr Harper are in your last term in political office anywhere in Canada.

The people are speaking with a united voice from the Native communities in the far flung regions of this great land all the way to the largest city in Canada, Toronto.

Toronto where you personally allowed attacks on innocents to show your disdain for Canadians and civil rights, during your G 20 summit. You thoroughly disgust us.

When we are done with you Mr. Harper you will be no more than what you so righteously deserve to be, a political cartoon character, a joke!

Allot of us are retired and have allot of time on our hands and you will be feeling the ground swell soon.

You are judged by the company you keep, Tom Flanagan, the University of Calgary professor and former senior adviser to Stephen Harper is a criminal as defined by the Criminal Code of Canada:

Section 464(a) of the Criminal Code says “every one who conspires with any one to commit murder or to cause another person to be murdered, whether in Canada or not, is guilty of an indictable offense and liable to a maximum term of imprisonment for life.”

I am calling for him, Flanagan to be brought to justice to be made an example of.

As far as Climate Change goes Mr Harper we the boomer generation are well informed so might I remind you of this fact of history:

The World Economic Forum held in Davos, Switzerland in January 2000, at the turn of the new millennium, CEOs from over 1000 top corporations and heads of state of the majority of the worlds governments, the new world order, came to agreement that climate change is the greatest threat ever, – to face nations[1] (humanity). Subsequently, the United Nations annual Human Development Reports of 2007 and 2008 and the World Bank in its annual World Development Report of 2010 have also deemed the world’s greatest threat, climate change, to be the focal point of those reports.

Tell me with a straight face you are not familiar with these reports, sir?

To further aggravate the situation:

“Stephen Harper has done what he promised never to do: allow the Senate to go against the will of the majority of Members of Parliament and the Canadian public. On November 16, after a surprise vote and without any debate, unelected Conservative senators killed the Climate Change Accountability Act. The Act would have made government accountable for putting in place the solutions to reduce global warming emissions to safe levels – in line with targets that leading scientists say are necessary to avoid the devastating consequences of uncontrolled climate change. It was overwhelmingly supported by and passed in the elected House of Commons, thanks in part to the support of Canadians from across the country.” from http://action.davidsuzuki.org/C-311

How dare you?

“Canada’s climate researchers are being muzzled, their funding slashed, research stations closed, findings ignored and advice on the critical issue of the century unsought by Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s government, according to a 40-page report by a coalition of 60 non-governmental organizations.” from http://stephenleahy.net/2010/03/16/canadas-idea-of-working-on-climate-change-means-muzzling-climate-scientists-closing-research-stations-and-cutting-funding/

And this article goes on to inform us of this:

“Media coverage of climate change science, our most high-profile issue, has been reduced by over 80 percent,” says internal government documents obtained by Climate Action Network.

The dramatic decline results from a 2007 Harper government-imposed prohibition on government scientists speaking to reporters. Canadian scientists have told IPS they required permission from the prime minister’s communications office to comment on their own studies made public in scientific journals and reports.”

Outrageous!

This is completely unconscionable, you sir have completely lost touch with reality as well as Canadians. I am afraid for your mental health.

Read this to find out why I am concerned: [PPT]
in World Leaders – Internet Mental Health (if this link does not work do a google of it)

You sir are a liar of the worst kind a miserable scoundrel and do not deserve to be in the Prime Ministers Office.

We the people are speaking loud and clear.

Thanks for this! One small note– Andrew Weaver is a climate scientists and not a climatologist.

Other than that you hit the nail on the head.
