That I'm suspicious of government is hardly the same as being a conspiracy theorist. Politicians are much like car salesmen. If they move their lips, they're lying.
"If they move their lips, they're lying."
Clarification: It is a joke. I have no car salesman agenda. No politician agenda either, for that matter.
And yet your jumps to conclusions were wrong about the coal plants, wrong about what the former Harvard Dean Summers had said, and wrong about the TTC. Maybe trite rules of thumb aren't always right, and each issue should be examined separately by researching the facts. Just a thought.
