Harper gang pranks Canadian vets with classic switcheroo!

Oh my, what a fun-loving gang of jokers that Harper crew is!
A week ago no less than three Harper cabinet ministers preened before the TV cameras while strait-facedly announcing $200 millions in new funding to address mental health issues among Canadian Forces veterans.
A few days later some reporters have read the fine print; that $200 million will be spread over 50 years!
Let's do some math; 200 million over 50 years is $4,000,000 per year…. divvy that up among the 40,000+ CF members who rotated through Afghanistan… That works out to less than a hundred bucks per veteran per year.
That's pathetic…
And playing it as a bold new initiative to take care of our veterans is ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!

I agree. Harper also promised $800 million during the last campaign. He grafted what he could, and handed it back to the Alberta oil companies that got him elected. Now that the next election is on it’s way, he’s doing it again. I’m amazed that he even bothered to promise the $200 million. He needs to be voted out, or impeached.
