It seems there is no end to greed!

What really burns me is that Ottawa expects me to obey and honor our 
laws and our constitution, yet they introduce legislation that is in 
direct conflict with our constitution which  guarantees that I can not 
be held responsible for someone else's action. Yet here they are 
penalizing me for crimes commited by others. Its a good life if we don't 
weaken :)
