OUR FEDERAL BUDGET 2009

This new Federal budget is nothing but a big joke it is very obvious that the current federal government is trying to buy more time to try to cover up their numerous political mistakes thus far in their term of government.
In this “New Budget” there is absolutely nothing for the following the elderly, disabled, our colleges and university students, the homeless, the abusive women and children, the people living in poverty,low income families, The thousands of middle-class income families that are being affected by the current economy and this recession that we have been in for some time.
By my premonitions it certainly will get worse before they get its better, it is unfortunate for me making this statement but it is true the writing is on the wall and every day when we listen to the radio and/or look at the television there is some type of new disturbance and another situation of concern.

When the Federal elections were upon us we the people have the opportunity of making a stance for change but for whatever reason the numbers at the election and polls across Ontario in Canada give us our current federal government.

The only thing about this new budget for 2009 it helps our current government and politicians as well as the big corporations, well the regular working peons work twice as hard for their hard earned dollar. In some cases some of the families that are fortunate enough have two paychecks coming in to one household but even so in most cases that is not enough, to make ends meet to the next paycheck.

The vast majority of Ontarians who are receiving some type of Social Service assistance, government assistance Ontario Disability Support Program (O.D.S.P.) Ontario Works or any other current structure system assistance in most cases is not enough because of inflation and the high cost of putting food on the table, especially due to the numerous layoffs, cutbacks, some corporate downsizing and the current value of our Canadian dollar.

Years ago our parents used to help their children through life but in today's world it is the children help in the parents and there are so-called golden years from month to month living expenses.

If only people could see that we are in a real mess and it is time for the people to come forth and stand at the plate and take some responsibility and make sure our elected officials are doing their job on the behalf of the people because we as people have the right and should be looked after and a proper fashion because as I grew up from a young boy I kept hearing that our country is the land of the free and I would like the current government officials show me where it is free today.

The Ontarians people and other people across Canada can make a significant change I am including a couple of link's that can make a significant change if there are any Ontarians and Canadians who are willing to get their hands dirty and to do something for themselves and their families.
