In actuality, this email could be being perpetuated by Liberals trying to gain an upper hand over them.<br /><br />If fellow Canadians are fearful that their old-age security systems can be usurped by foreigners, it is because they have not been completely supported by either political party to the extent needed for seniors to live a decent life and they simply don't trust their leaders anymore. There is very little hope in the hearts of Canada's seniors that they will even gain a spot in a nursing home when the time comes. <br /><br />ON the one hand, Canadian corporations have exploited foreign peoples to manufacture goods for our home markets via cheap, cheap wages; thus, I feel it should be their obligation to provide for the well-being of those foreign workers once they become seniors. That care should be provided in their own home country, not in Canada at the taxpayers' expense.<br /><br />ON the other hand, those same corporations who utilize offshore slave labor should be paying much much higher taxes in Canada PLUS a stiff tariff to get those goods back into Canada. That would provide more government money to support our own Canadian seniors.<br /><br />The false email is atrocious but, being a senior, I can fully understand why it upsets so many Canadian seniors. I will never vote Liberal again, no matter what they do. They have always proven to help their own cronies once they get into power. They are a 'pot calling the kettle black' whenever they lambast the Conservatives.<br /><br />kfccanadaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35935973.post-67647279291109219982010-09-05T00:47:02.987-07:002010-09-05T00:47:02.987-07:00The worst fears of conservatives worldwide is that...The worst fears of conservatives worldwide is that the middle and lower classes the world over realize they have everything in common with each other.<br /><br />If the workers in Mexico talk to the workers in Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Canada, ... and organize - there would be changes.<br /><br />The world is getting smaller and people are talking.
