Maybe we should go a little redneck on this Blog entry. The war in Afghanistan where Canadian troops are fighting and dying seems to be about to change. With the America threatening to add almost enough additional forces to meet General (retired) Lou McKenzie’s 10,000 additional troop commitment for victory it might be time to consider letting other NATO countries back up the Yankee juggernaut. American generals will after all be commanding the Afghan mission and our troops might become the ‘other guys’ making them expendable fighting the Taliban and El Quad in the no-win mountain regions of the country. Not only the Russians but in the recent past British forces were unable to defeat insurgents living in those mountains. The free world should be wondering why the American’s seem set to commit to escalating the war in a country that in effect lent credence to the political and economic decimation the USSR. Warrior societies never seem to learn, or realize the consequences of invading the mountains of Afghanistan.
We have a great deal of work for our troops to take care of right here at home. A man died defending his wife after coming out of a Toronto restaurant. Another man and his wife were victim to a knife-wielding thug after coming out of grocery store in the same city. The need for drugs and the money to buy them creates acts of lawlessness, thievery, and prostitution in every major and smaller cities towns and villages across Canada. Police officers trying to cope with the changing face of the nation are also falling victim to the lawless drug crazed minority prowling the streets. Meanwhile gangs appear to be getting stronger, reports of drug busts more frequent and Canadian children must face added pressure to experiment with the ready available drugs.
An easy solution might create the demise of today’s political system or create the atmosphere for a strong central government to emerge. On the other hand, if the power such a solution spins out of control, the voting public could be the losers. So far, government legislators have successfully established permanent voting dates. Will the next move extend the term of governments followed by dispensing of elections all together? The scenario can happen. Simply read history books to discover power usually corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. That aside, one of our political parties could decide to end the ever-circular chain of events plaguing Canadian and every other country’s politicians. It would require organizing a massive campaign led by a specially trained and directed police contingent backed by Canada’s military to weed out drug gangs, distributors, and importers in every corner the country. Parliament would need to pass a temporarily law with a clause negating individual rights to challenge the constitution and bill of rights while the temporary law is in effect. It would be a law similar to the one America passed after the infamous September 11 attack.
We wrote that the blog would be redneck in nature. However, if the measures ever passed the result once the idea proved effective would end the carnage escalating in our streets and the streets and back alleys of every civilized country. People from other jurisdictions living illegally in Canada putting stress on the country’s envied social and health programs would be weeded out and unable to use the constitution or bill of rights to further their own personal agenda. If legislated properly complete with an irrevocable sunset clause, Canada would once more become the county of peace-loving people wanting to immigrate to a new land with opportunity to live without the fear of drug-induced crime. The movement could spread around the world reducing the tremendous worldwide tax-free illegal drug industry. It could even win a Nobel peace prize for another of political leaders.
