Subject: PEF Blog: Finance Minister Bill Morneau on the Dangers of Bank of Canada Funding
http://www.progressive-economics.ca/2017/02/17/finance-minister-bill-morneau-on-the-dangers-of-bank-of-canada-funding/
Finance Minister Bill Morneau has given an official response to an e-petition regarding the Bank of Canada.
Morneau maintains that low-cost financing of public infrastructure through the BoC would be inflationary, but apparently his own plan an Infrastructure Bank that would reward investors with 7 9% % returns and whose costs would be passed on to consumers through tolls, fees, or taxes does not seem to cause him the same concerns.
The contentions of the finance minister on a number of issues should be challenged. Please read the petition and Morneau's response, then consider sending your own thoughts directly to Mr. Morneau who can be reached at House of Commons, Ottawa, ON K1A 0A6 (no postage required) and email at Bill.Morneau@parl.gc.ca.

Subject: Re: Trudeau blames corporate elites for rise in global public anger, Bill Curry, Feb. 17, 2017
http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/trudeau-merkel-germany-nato-spending/article34065401/
Corporate elites love privatization of infrastructure. They thrive on free trade deals that include investor-state dispute settlement clauses. When raw resources are exported, our corporate elites grow richer. Free trade, privatization, and raw exports are all policies that Justin Trudeau promotes.
Trudeau may blame the elites for the hollowing of the middle class, but he has appointed money managers and chief executives to be his economic consultants, and he is happy to follow their impartial advice. They have convinced him that trickle-down economics will spread the benefits of their profiteering far beyond their own cozy little circle.
Footnotes:
1. Trump and Trudeau are gunning to massively privatize infrastructure � and it�s going to cost you
http://www.policynote.ca/trump-and-trudeau-are-gunning-to-massively-privatize-infrastructure-and-its-going-to-cost-you/
- ".... Michael Sabia, whose firm is a major investor in privatized infrastructure..sits on the Trudeau government�s Advisory Council on Economic Growth. The Advisory Council�s chair is Dominic Barton, Global Managing Director of McKinsey & Company, a firm which is also in the business of P3s. In turn, the Advisory Council authored the October 2016 report advising the government to create the Canada Infrastructure Bank, with a particular focus on wooing private investors.
- Groups like the Canadian Council of Public-Private Partnerships are also getting face time with Minister of Infrastructure Amarjeet Sohi, who told reporters government will �listen to the private sector� as it fleshes out the design details of the Canada Infrastructure Bank.
- This should all be deeply worrying to Canadians."

Subject: Fwd: RE: EVALUATE YOUR PRESIDENT OR YOURSELF!!!
To: CANADIAN DAILY DIGEST <phoenix.rising@bellnet.ca>
Herewith for your distribution, Joe, should you find it appropriate.
Glenn
===============
NOTE: These Instructions below co-ordinate with the descriptors seen in the attachment.
On a scale of 4 --1, four (4) being the RICH or high point, and one(1) being the DEFICIENT (low) point, HOW SOCIAL are you//YOUR PRESIDENT?
This test, developed by 250 Educational psychologists,(Vide ACCS: Frymier 1977), and modified by yours truly, is still valid today!!
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Determine the age of the person (even yourself)
2. Turn each of the nine (9) descriptors in the bipolar Likert scale into a question
at the corresponding RICH and DEFICIENT poles of the scale.
[ Example: Are you (am I)/IS HE/SHE Communicative/participator, OR Un-communicative/loner?]
3. Score oneself (yourself/your President ) according to your determination along the [4-3-2-1-1 ] sliding scale.
4. Do NOT add (vertically) the numbers but view the 9 Bipolar descriptors "AS A WHOLE" -- all the scores.
5. Then decide whether you are (one is) more or less Rich or Deficient on the SOCIAL(ABILITY) dimension {this is only ONE of ten (10) dimensions of examining ONESELF, or any other person}.
6. DO SOMETHING about moving yourself {creative thinking} from DEFICIENT to RICH, by choosing or exposing yourself to MATERIALS (books, literature, T.V. learning programmes, INTERNET bona fide literature, persons, all relevant data, pictures, music, Art, etc) that would ENHANCE and move you from 1 to 4 on the scale.
Do your think your President or Prime Minister has hope???
HAVE FUN!!! KEEP YOUR BRAIN ACTIVE!!!
