Get the pop corn ready. Sheeple are producing a block buster on what they do not know. :)

oh you mean exactly what you do, by taking a random link saying a non profit has an operating budget of 900k. and that her pockets are lined with cash.

substantiate your claims man.  pretty basic.  you expect facts.  then present them.

"Astroturfing is the practice of masking the sponsors of a message (e.g. political, advertising, or public relations) to give the appearance of it coming from a disinterested, grassroots participant. Astroturfing is intended to give the statements the credibility of an independent entity by withholding information about the source's financial connection."
   I might think differently if Doc Morton got something right. :)

Heard what NB? Speculation that you thrive on? LOL. I have already told you why I post and you and others toss it aside. Carry on and I will get the pop corn ready for your next ground breaking production. :)

And another masterful Sidestep Steve- BTW I'm so glad you're shadowing me so closely that you're able to sniff out the labels on my underwear, and here I thought it was my cheeks. Did you enjoy shadowing me when I shop and rifling through my drawers to read the labels? Mumsy and Daddy wasted all that money on education and you're reduced to looking at others attire and food :o ;D. Pity. I notice a big gap in the less than spirited defense of Marine Harvest , the practices and legacy of the company by you and Mr. B. Another sob story? Pointing out the facts about a company history and expressing an opinion that they aren't worthy of trust is a sob story? Just sitting back or trying to polish that turd is a sob story. 6000 jobs you say? How many are part time and what's the pay scale?
So let me hear your defense of Marine Harvest's past.....

Oh...did I hurt your fragile feelings again?  As for masterful sidestep you have been the one avoiding the original study and decided to jump into labour practices.  Now you don't like fact that you might be hypocrite who shops at those stores that gets products from 3rd world countries.  But no...you only buy Canadian....lol.  Fish farm critics have as much concerned for Chiliean fish farm workers as Harper has for scientists.  Some big defender of worker's rights you are, swifty.  As for shadowing I think that Depends do not have labels so you should safe from anyone rifling through your drawers or having anyone get close enough to sniff out the labels.

Um,  Steve you seem pretty defensive and avoid that little part about the Chilean operations and the way they abused their workers other than a dismissive snort. Your concern for other humans is so touching it just makes me wretch. FYI - I was at one point in my life a shop steward and worker safety was a primary concern. That stuff really puts the boots to your specious claims about the wonderful :o  enterprises the mothership runs elsewhere. Where's the defense of the practices of those policies for the workers? Again, if they pull that crap there, what are they trying here? Sidestep the question as to how many of the McJobs are full time? How much do they pay? I didn't state that I only buy Canadian, but if I have a choice I do. You're losing steam little buddy and sidestepping masterfully.

ooohh Depends! How (not) witty! Mumsy and Daddy's tuition to comedy school was a waste of money. ;D

A shop steward AND a hypocrite now.  Well, "former shop steward" perhaps you might want to compare the regulatory environments between Chile and CANADA before you get too concerned about "what are they trying here"?  However, that would require you to do a little research and perhaps having to depart from your fear mongering which I can see making you kind of uncomfortable.  As for how much the jobs pay why do not you ask them yourself.  You know...take some initiative to find out the facts instead of relying on misinformation.

No need to go to comedy school when you provide lots of opportunity to dig you back.

Maybe I was too hasty with the comedy school flop. You know as well as I do that many of the "6000 jobs" are part time and on call in the processing end. Logistics? Same. I only asked those tough questions because of your claims about being somewhat of an expert on the subject.
Did they abuse:

A) - The environment
B) - The workers
You know the answers Stevie but choose to sidestep

Hilarious!

Here you go Steve - read this and tell me again about the 6000 jobs (and growing, much like that stories nose) and the wonderful economic engines the feedlots are, spewing cash all over the province. All rearng is done organically and they change those Depends every 2 hours. ::) Jobs, jobs and more jobs. ;D ::)Wanna revise that theory? Oh wait a minute. This is the Canadian arm. Although they do it everywhere else, they wouldn't do it here......would they?
