The Court Challenges Program uproar: "It is a tale told by an idiot..."

"...full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."

The wailing and gnashing of teeth has surely reached a crescendo, as parasitic organizations across the land bemoan being summarily evicted from one of their most generous hosts - the infamous Liberally-supported Court Challenges Program. (Having lawyers choose to promote a stereotype of themselves by joining the chorus is a bonus - the pot must have been richer than I thought...)

As REAL Women of Canada put it in a recent press release:

This Program was supposedly established to fund "disadvantaged" groups, but instead, it has constantly funded only left of centre organizations and by way of this abuse of the taxpayers money has carried out social restructuring by way of the courts. The promotion of social changes by way of judicial fiat funded by the Court Challenges Program has resulted in the bypassing of the democratic process of public debate in Parliament. In fact the Court Challenges Program was a profoundly undemocratic use of taxpayers money to restructure society, with the public being deprived of having any input in these changes. The elimination of the Court Challenges Program will go a long way to promoting democracy in Canada. [source]

Took the words right outta my mouth. (And kudos to Gwen Landolt - this one's for you - you've certainly earned it.)
