Administrator Toups Posted November 24, 2005 Administrator Share Posted November 24, 2005 I think the Canadian gov't has more important things to worry than 50 Cent. This isn't the 1st time 50 and G-Unit have come to Canada, so why now? I also remember some gov't people wanting to ban Eminem, but that didn't happen.

Members kingtechla Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 Didn't they try to ban Eminem a couple of years ago because he plead guilty to a couple of gun charges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drew Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 I thought it was an actual law that you couldn't have a criminal record and cross the border. Or they had to so something special. Martha Stewart encountered the same thing ... till they went "dear god, it's Martha" and got some weird permits.

Members Mitchapalooza Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 I think this is retarded. I am suprised that the Canadian gov't is actually wasting time on this when it could be put towards MUCH more important issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members CSW Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 The Canadian government IS NOT actually wasting it's time with this and they are putting its efforts towards many very important issues. This is just one MP (member of parliament) talking on an open mic. What you should know is that Canada is in pre-election mode. MPs will do anything, especially this one, to get their names in the paper. All press is good press, especially leading to a winter election. But to show that the government is actually concerning itself with important matters, here is a list of some recent initiative announced in the past 2-3 weeks: -large tax reduction for low income Canadians -large tax reduction for small businesses -modest corporate tax cut -over 3 billions dollars towards University/post-secondary education -over 2 billion to aboriginal residential schools -over 4.5 billion for new military planes/helicopters -over 10 billion for labour marketing and skills development -billions to protect the auto sector -1.5 billion support package to victims the softwood lumber despute caused by the United State's unlawful breach of a binding international treaty - NAFTA -1 billion to farmers 1.5 billion to the forestry sector -There are several important bills on the table, including a bill a heat-rebate bill for low income Canadians, a national "do not call registry" to prevent telemarketers from bothering people. Of course, this comes just a few months after Canada became the 4th country in the world to pass Same Sex Marriage, a new immigration policy to increase the number of new Canadians, a new healthcare framework, start a national day-care program for parents across the country, ratify and start implementing the kyoto accord for environmental protection, and provide billions of dollars to municipalities to pay for public transit, infrastructure renewal and strategic investments in growth. All of this, while reducing our debt-to-GDP ratio, and overall debt by incredible numbers and running nearly a decade of surplus, fiscally balanced and economically prudent budgets. So for anyone who bothered to read this far down the page, do not think for a second that the Canadian Government isn't a serious, active and dedicated governing body. That said, many of these initiatives will not come to fruition if we have an election. And we will be having an election. The call will come early next week.

Members EricaKane70 Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 This is just more publicity for 50 Cent, thanks canada for inflating his already big ego. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Hartless Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 Again this is what we call a scapegoat. Instead of actually doing something about the crime rate and gun control, they spend all their energy in trying to stop some rapper from singing a few songs? This reminds me of when Marilyn Manson was blamed for the deaths of the kids at Columbine. Why don't politicans address the real issues? So stupid.

Members CSW Posted November 24, 2005 Members Share Posted November 24, 2005 You're welcome to come here, but what is your reason if you don't mind me asking? Canada is a beautiful country full of amazing and vast natural beauty. But more than that, Canada is a pillar of tolerance and multiculturalism. The only that surpasses the majestic wonder of our land is the kind, educated and skilled people that live here, both born and immigrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
