The hide you save just might be your own

Since I did not express my personal views in sending this link to people and groups on my list directly, I want to do so here:

What really saddens me is that these cases never had to be… But, when that could have been arranged, people would not listen. They would not give up their 4H, FFA, county and state fairs, Farm Bureau and all the rest. Now that they have happened, where is the support from people who don’t want this program to happen to them?

They have paid their money and given their support to national “heroes” and national organizations who purport to be against NAIS. I’ve fallen for that in the past as well, and have ALWAYS been sorely disappointed.

So….

Harper Shuts down Coordinated Access to Information Requests (CAIR)

Apparently taking its cue’s from the Bush administration that has busied itself with reclassifying many formerly released documents under the Freedom of Information Act, fearful of American’s knowing too much about the corruption of our own government. Stephan Harper, Canada’s Advocate for the SPP and the NAU, has gone one step further. MP Harper shut the entire information center down!

CAIR is the counterpart to our FREEDOM OF Information Act.

What is it that these two governments are afraid for you to know? These are the actions of dictators.

Received May 8, 2008 from the Canadian Action Party and Connie Fogal:

Stephen Harper has just shut down the Coordinated Access to Information Requests system site. The CBC blog about it is overwhelmingly expressing alarm.  Here is a petition you can sign calling for CAIRS to be brought back http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/saveCAIRS/

Write a letter to your MP and MLA demanding that CAIRS be re-established.  It cost $50,000 a year to operate, a small price to pay for government transparency.  It provides invaluable information to organizations and researchers allowing them to see what the government has been doing behind closed doors.

Please sign the petition write a letter and call in to your local radio shows to raise this issue.  Forward this letter to your contacts ASAP.

Thanks

If you think this can’t or won’t happen here in the States, think again. It’s happening already. An informed population is a danger to the government. An educated and informed population will no longer be tolerated.
