| Message | OOC: in regard to genetically modified crops, I would like to point out that the majority of food we eat now days vegetable wise is gentically modified. That's why our corn now is much bigger than it was several hundred years ago. |

| Message | This bill is ridiculous. You may create jobs for a short period of time, but when business fails (as they do) you will see rises in unemployment. The Liberal proposal is far better than this rubbish! |

| Message | This is an excellent proposal except for article 4 concerning gm foods. You are correct that the majority of food we eat is gm foods but this is a serious health concern for us, they have never been tested on people and when tested on rats 1 out of 2 rats developed cancer. with article 4 removed we support |

| Message | Kinda ironic that the Conservative Block that is being called dictators is saying that private property can't be seized by the government. |

| Message | Yes the more we push against the statism the more we are accused of being the ones against freedom. |

| Message | Dictatorship has nothing to do with economics... You can be a free market state and be dictatorial (Pinochet). We are not calling the conservative bloc dictators, we are calling the Whig party. |
