Ignatieff makes Harper look like a Fool

Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff challenged conservative leader Steven Harper to a one on one debate. Steven Harper declined this request and will not attend the debate. Ignatieff had stated that Harper cannot be trusted. Harper wanted to do the debate saying, “Lets step in to the ring toe to toe.” But suddenly Harper backed out. Ignatieff is saying that if this man is backing out and changing things he is not to be trusted. Harper was all for the debate and then backed out. Ignatieff has the right to be mad at Harper because he lied.


I believe that Steven Harper made a promise to debate and then backed out. This is a terrible thing to do as a prime minister because people trust his word that is why he is Prime Minister. Ignatieff was asked to a debate he accepted and when he accepted Harper backed out and that is not something a Prime Minister should do. I believe that Ignatieff will win the next election Steven Harper is not reliable.

Liberals Want to Spend $1000 for each Student's School Funding

Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff speaks at Sheridan College in Oakville about a new $1 billion campaign for student College Funding. Ignatieff wants to take this 1 billion dollars and give $1000 every year for four years, to each student to help pay for college. Ignatieff also stated that this money would not be needed to be paid back to the government. "I can say without exaggeration that this is a real revolution in learning and training in Canada — and that will give us the means of becoming the most competitive society in the world," Ignatieff said. Also, A Liberal statement had stated that the program would be an addition to the existing tuition education tax credits and textbook tax subsidies. Ignatieff has just launched this $1 billion dollar campaign and is leaving Toronto and Québec for the first time and is heading to Vancouver.


I personally do not like Michael Ignatieff as a leader. Firstly, this $1 billion dollars is such a ridiculous idea! 4 thousand dollars to every student does not make sense. This money might be wasted due to drop outs by the people receiving the 1000 dollars. Also, there are many more things that this $1 billion dollars can be used for. Education is key but the people can get jobs or student loans or other means of funding. People without houses, people who are disabled or even hospitals that need fixing better deserve this money. With this I believe that Ignatieff should not be Canada’s Prime Minister

Man kills school Girl in Shooting

A police officer was working on security duty at a store on boxing day when he heard up to 12 gunfire shots. He was in the store and all people panicked, people were running frantically in and outside of the store. When the police officer upholstered his weapon he ran outside and he saw School girl, Jane Creba, who was lying their dead on the street. The law broken was committing a murder, citizens of Canada have the right to be free and live life without the worries of people in possession of deadly weapons. Canadians have the responsibility to not commit murder or harm to other citizens. Also, the consequence varies on the murder scene.


At this crime scene there is no evidence but the person is strongly believed to have committed the crime he may receive 5 to 10 years. But, if the person has evidence against them they can go to jail for life. I believe people who commit murder should be put away for life in jail. This is a current rule so I believe it is a great rule. Although the person who committed this crime got away with it I strongly believe he should have gone to jail.

Couple Charged with Elder Abuse

This article is about an elder Chinese woman who was forced to live in her son’s garage. This woman was found living in the garage with no suitable needs for a human, by the neighbor next door. The neighbors name was Chao Yang and he had stated to the police that he never sees the garage door open. Later on the police got involved and for 4 months Yang’s neighbor had kept his mother in the garage. His mother lived in the garage because she was defecating and urinating on herself and did not seem to notice. At approximately 10:50 on a Wednesday night the police got a call that a woman was unconscious and unresponsive. They later found that she had not eaten for many days and only had 1 piece of bread in her “room”. This woman had suffered from elder abuse from her own son who made her live in the garage.


This is an awful example of elder abuse. It was said that this is the worst example of elder abuse the police officer has ever seen. It is so hard to believe that this woman was forced to live in her son’s garage by her own son. It is sad to see that her son did not seek help for his mother when she was most in need. I really hope that this woman will receive help and that her son will be charged and go to jail for doing such an awful thing.
