Industry Minister Jim Prentice's DMCA Deception

"With only two weeks left in the House of Commons calendar until the summer recess (technically the House could sit for an additional two weeks but few expect that to happen), Industry Minister Jim Prentice is likely to introduce his new copyright bill next week or during the first week of June. While Prentice continues to claim that he is actively working on a bill that meets the needs of creators and consumers, the talk in Ottawa is that the bill is done. The DMCA provisions that generated so much opposition last December are still there as Prentice is seemingly unwilling to take a stand against the U.S. pressure by siding with Canadian business, consumers, and education groups."

It's a good thing we have Michael Geist without him Jim Prentice would have an easier time pulling the wool over our eyes while stabbing us in the back.

"I know that it is difficult to imagine that a person can do the kinds of things that David Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger do because… you’re not like them and you could never do these things so… it just seems incomprehensible. This puts you at a disadvantage because you’re always thinking there have to be reasons; reasonable necessities, needs, requirements that compel them to behave as they do. It is impossible to imagine that members of the banking community actually get together and bankroll wars for no other reason than profit; which they reap from both sides of the battlefield.

War creates debt which creates profit made from money that is printed out of thin air by bankers. Debt grants control over policy and resources. That’s all there is to it except for one thing. They enjoy doing it. They do it because it also makes them hard. You have to understand this. There is no secret wisdom that these men and women possess that requires them to behave as they do. There’s no hidden charter that says they have to perform difficult acts that are for our own good but we can’t know why. They do these things because they delight in evil and practice it for the sheer joy of doing it."

I guess Jim Prentice fits in this category, thanks Smoking Mirrors for the description.
