Save Our Saskatchewan Crowns?

Sigh.

So, last night we learned that a public interest group called 'Save Our Saskatchewan Crowns' which was, supposedly, a group of concerned citizens who came together with a common purpose. The purpose, naturally, was to keep the Sask Party from selling the Crown corporations right out from under us in a stealthy manner. The reason you've never heard about it, fellow citizens is because it was stealthy. The left in this country loves this type of circular argument. (See "Conservative Secret Agenda" for reference)

The spokesperson for the group is a CEP Vice President. So, really, this isn't some coalition of diverse interests standing up to the evil government. It's simply a union front, and nothing more. Every statement made by this group should be filtered accordingly.

The Sask Party isn't sellling the Crowns and weren't going to. Any political party in this province knows that it's political suicide to even hint at it. A political party would have to change the mindset of the electorate over the course of a generation to pull it off, not a single term.

The worst nightmare of the unions is coming true: Brad Wall is not incompetent. The screechier the unions get, the less relevant they become (See "American Conservative Movement").
