On September
1, 2006, FPO leader Paul McKeever was a guest on the
John Oakley Show (AM 640, Toronto). Oakley spoke with
McKeever about McKeever's August 31, 2006 column
in the Toronto Star concerning the fact that both
the Liberals and the Progressive Conservatives take the
absurd
position that the Premier's office has no constitutional
authority to direct the police to remove occupiers from
the disputed land at Caledonia.
Alone among political party leaders in Ontario, McKeever
said that the premier's office can and should direct
police to remove occupiers from the disputed land with
force if necessary, and that no negotiation should occur
while the land is occupied. Click

Tory, and the Powers of the Premier to Direct Police to

"...Tory's
supposedly "hard line" that negotiations should
cease until the rule of law is restored is, in truth,
hypocritical bafflegab: He proposes that McGuinty restore
the rule of law by sitting down with First Nations leaders
and working out a way in which to restore the rule of
law. Now, I'm just a lawyer, but I would call that a
form of negotiation...". Click

it is a virtue to have a government steal

a vice to take by force if you wear a fedora,
