No they don't the polls are basically a statistical dead heat. However if the Harperites do get a majority, welcome to the 51st state |

| reply to delius quote: The CRTC is reluctant to pull licences for several reasons. In the case of CHOI, station employees unrelated to the complaints were left without jobs.
CRTC chairman Konrad von Finckenstein wants the regulator to be given powers to fine companies, but there's no evidence the government will entertain the idea.
So basically they seldom if ever pull someones licences and they can't fine companies.
That is really useful, not. |

What power they have was given them by liberals yet everyone on these forums is so anti-Conservative. |

What the people that voted these idiot sticks into power want them to do. What they're there to do. Look after the public.
ohh wait.. sorry i'm a little high on cold medicine so just forget that last bit... |
