Oh for the love of Christ...
Not everyone wants a stupid civic. The Camaro is VERY economical for a 300 HP car. Sometimes I'm glad we don't have people like this running our car companies...every car would get 50 MPG, but out of a 70 HP 3 cylinder engine or something.

Don't ever take anything from the NDP seriously. They are an extreme left wing liberal party. They want everyone to drive a Prius and believe welfare recipients should be paid minimum wage.

We must demand fun-to-drive cars as well as Chevy Volts. The Volt will actually help us by lowering gasoline demand, and therefore holding today's or lowering gas prices. |

Lets see....so the politicians in Canada think they know what the manufacturer should build and sell. Do they want a say in the design of the car too? And the color?
Personally...I don't know of ANYBODY who has bought a hybrid, or wants to buy one. So where is he finding all these imaginary customers at? And the Malibus are stacked up at the dealer lots all over the country here in the US. Someone better tell him that it does'nt matter what you are building right now..few vehicles are selling. But Canada seems to have more than its share of Toyotas and Hondas on the roads whenever I'm there anyway. Hes lucky to have GM spending money in his country building cars and employing his citizens. He does'nt seem to understand that these cars are being built for people in countries other than his own. Its called a "global economy". And he should also know that GM can't build enough of the $100,000 Corvette ZR-1 cars right now. Dealers are getting $20,000 over MSRP for them and orders are backed up for months with customers not being able to get a build date for them. I'm sure he feels that these cars should not be built either because they don't suit his personal tastes.

And again I say F--- YOU to the banks, mortgage lenders, and profiteers on Wall Street who didn't have to prove a THING to get the first surge of bailout money...which promptly got shipped overseas and did nothing for the economy.

I say what is wrong with this world ....where a Camaro is not desired. It would be a dull, dull world indeed.
