A Canadian Tea Party!
It’s finally happened! I encourage everyone to sign up for this. A “Tea Party” is not just an American concept, it’s for anyone who feels government has gone too far. And this time, the Tea is maple-flavored :)
From the “Maple Tea Party” Facebook group:
When Sir John A. MacDonald became the first Prime Minister of Canada in 1867, he was bringing a long tradition of democracy and common law from England…along with common sense. Over time, common sense became less and less common in government. As more time passed, government in Canada became bigger and bigger. Now, government over-taxes, over-spends, and expects us — the Canadian people — to foot the bill.
Being Canadians, we didn’t say “NO” when things were getting out of hand. Government now runs our education system, our hospitals, and every other part of our lives. They event want to change a national anthem that we’ve had for a hundred years to become “politically correct.”
We do NOT need to stand for this. We don’t adapt to meet the whims of government, the government needs to represent us.
It’s time for Canadians to have a Maple Tea Party and show the government that they’ve gone to far, once and for all.

It’s about darn time! Canadians have been playing the part of the doormat for way too long now.

I don’t like that they just seem to have copy/pasted something from the copywriting of an American Tea Party group. The “founding fathers thing” kind of makes sense down there in the States, but our founding fathers were socialists and anti-American government protectionists who would pretty much hate the Tea Party movement. Still, good that people are mobilizing.

Wow you people are soooo stupid you actually scare me! If I put a picture of a hot blonde on the cover of Mein Kempf i’m sure the same idiots who think privatizing essential services to corporations unconcerned with much other their profit margins is intelligent. Geee whiz guys where can we find unsuccessful examples of privatization? I know, right next to us in the United States of America! I guess since none of you morons bothered to look past the gorgeous poster girl and do some research you havent heard that the USA has by far the MOST EXPENSIVE HEALTH CARE SYSTEM IN THE WORLD! Im sure the 50 million Americans without health insurance could tell you a thing or two about that. And about that whole “Tea Party” episode you retards are so happy with, I mean WOW did you guys ever ever fail to live up to the standards and morals set forth by your founding fathers. I mean those guys aren’t just turning over in their graves, THEYRE PULLING FLIPS FASTER THAN ANN COULTOR CAN TELL OFF HER ASIAN DRY CLEANERS! There should definitely be a new generation of tea partiers, most notably the immigrants who who have built modern America and instead of receiving gratitude instead get to hear Ann FREAKIN Coultor bitch because she hates black people and doesn’t like Michelles Obama’s style(LOL). Yea cause any republican jackass knows that the road to success is paved with sensible black shoes and a dark, sober suit for men and for the ladies(ANN COULTOR) remember a black dress with a hemline just above the knees so youre not too obviously slatternly And thats it for today folks, remember, if you disagree with me, you’re probably an idiot and i will direct you to a secluded high bridge where you can do the world a favour by jumping off!

That comment was probably the most disjointed, incoherent nonsense I’ve ever read – and I read the New York Times.
