Just the printing costs alone for doubling its size from what is necessary, and of course we do need to add in the costs of Canada Post mailing those huge things out to everyone, whether they are "free" or not (nothing is free, not even health care).<br /><br />And because those are our taxpayer dollars being spent so recklessly, I think that's a thing. A good quarter of a page for an arrow! Seriously, now, if you really wanted a four pager, a good thing to have done with the extra space is put in a couple of lines about various options of electoral reform. Or that there are options. Or that the committee is proportional to the popular vote. Or that the committee first needs to recommend--well,<br /> you see where I'm going with this.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13803722687513455024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17909993.post-20288276754296914802016-10-17T07:42:24.543-07:002016-10-17T07:42:24.543-07:00No doubt Scott will send you a nice "Thank Yo...No doubt Scott will send you a nice "Thank You" card in today's post, M'Lady!<br /><br />Sure he will . . . .West End Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05757317517075393438noreply@blogger.com
