Only The 'Ignorant' Don't Care About Factual Reality Found In Census Results
"There is a certain perverse pleasure in observing a dogfight in which one has no dog. So it is in this national dogfight over the census. How it shakes out makes not the slightest difference to me. I mean, it's the census. Who cares?

Mr. MacPherson, is a good example of the ignorant attitude towards reality displayed by our Conservative government when it comes to the Canadian Census.
These bland individuals crave a 'dumbing down' of the nation in order that their lazy brains don't have too work too hard. Lazy intelligence prevents them from grasping REALITY and they want the entire nation to join them in their ineptitude and adherence to flawed, failed 19th century corporate ideology.
With regard to Harper's gutting of Canada's census data, Mr. Macpherson asks "who cares"? The real question here SHOULD BE ... why don't YOU care about factual reality?
We already know the answer to that question. The Right simply wants to adhere to their ideology. They place more value on what they 'think' than what they 'know'. Anything and anyone who puts hard facts in the way of their ideological goals, feels the consequences of their wrath.
Once again, Harper has gone too far. He simply assumed that the rest of the nation doesn't care about reality. We do. Harper has lost this fight. Canadians care.

Oh he cares all right, but he doesn't want others to. He and his friends have an ideological agenda that is made harder to implement with a census. So, he adopts a "How boring" pose, in hopes of duping enough other people to adopt the same attitude, to provide cover for his friends' gutting of the nation.
