PREJUDICE AND CONTEMPT

The Harper Conservatives renewed attempt to shut down the Vancouver
InSite safe injection program is nothing more than plain old small-
minded prejudices. The courts have told Harper and his cronies twice
now that they are wrong to attack this much valued facility, but it
seems this is yet another example of how this government sees "the
Law" as simply something to be gotten around JUST as it did in its
contempt of parliament recently. And now that they have a majority I
am sure we will see a lot more of the same - prejudices and contempt
that is - in the months to come.
