I was just thinking that our politicians seem to do a lot of stupid things, make a lot of stupid mistakes, ignore what the taxpayer wants, etcetera...

So, let's us in the sandbox develop a list of issues that, should a politician darken your door looking for your vote, we could ask of them.

A couple rules if you please:

Make the issue a simple short paragraph. No long-winded cut and pastes. Include a relative link if necessary.

Will you cut taxes?
Will you increase the basic personal exemption?
Will you do what it takes to trim the fat from the bloated beuracracy?
Will you put teeth back into the law?
Will you make all people take responsibility for their actions?
Will you help the government to stop spending our money like a drunken sailor?
Will you deport all non-citizens who committ crimes?

Provincial NDP
Explain Crocus
Explain the Labour expense flip
Explain WRHA brown envelope purchasing
Explain the parole process: tell us how you'll toughen it up such that someone with 25 parole violations is not on the streets killing people
Explain how you'll elevate the role municipalities play (i.e. autonomy for cities such as Winnipeg spend their money (no more "grants" with strings)

Will you invest more in teaching so LD can spell bureaucracy or install spell check? lol (I always spelt that one wrongly)

Pretty good questions!
I think I will make a list of those.

They don't want the results made public.

The commie bastards got sucked into a dumbass deal by some fast-talkin' ex-cop conmen from Admonchuk and are embarrassed.

This isn't anything like it was made out to be....in reality, it's about splitting the revenue with these other guys.

Yup...

But on photo radar both the province and the city are responsible.

What have those things got to do with not releasing the report?
