  Dave
  You got me confused Please explain what the reversal of indefinite =
closure
  of the Margaree Salmon Sport Fishing season has to do with the budget.
  Thanks

    I have seen very few wild bees on the lawn this year (Bumble Bees =

  Hf flowers.
  Is this shortage of small wild Bees general or localized ?

    Moving right along.

    While it is true that the budget will pass, it is also true that =
pressure applied effectively will yield results. The recent reversal of =
indefinite closure of the Margaree Salmon Sport Fishing season is a good =
example.

    And some of the Budget measures may not be as permanent as one might =
imagine, because nothing passed by Parliment can not be later reversed =
if seen fit.

    One of the most effective ways to oppose the adverse consequences of =
this budget, in my opinion, is to donate funds to the Official =
Opposition, say $1200. With sufficient funding they will be able to =
undertake good research and keep applying pressure where it will have =
the greatest effect. Currently, it is the only way to exercise a =
meaningful vote.

    Secondly I intend to write the leaders of splinter parties (Green & =
Liberal) and urge them to merge with NDP in the next election, on the =
understanding that this temporary amalgamation would initiate =
proportional representation if elected.

  Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
