A not-so-constructive type of opposition

Time has proven that I was right when I wrote that I was not excited about the UNC election or the results. Actually when I went back to read that piece again I realized it spoke of the worst scenario I thought of.

The opposition, instead of working to build something new, is bordering on trying to bring down what we had built in the past! I'm talking about the ridiculous debate about the Legal Affairs tower project.

The opposition has pulled this country to a mess that has nothing to do with the interest of the people. They strayed away from thinking and working on the main problems facing the country, and chose to distract the public by a campaign of anti-government propaganda. Even worse, this propaganda campaign focused its attack on the positive things the government had done, instead of trying to fix actual problems.

Where is the change Kamla sold us? Does criticizing a project that was completed and has been in service for years qualify as change?
The legal Affairs Tower was built years ago. It doesn’t belong to Hart or Manning. It belongs to the people and will be used by the people and by governments long after Hart and Manning are gone.

Despite all the clamor and whistle blowing, no one has explained at all what damage or harm—if any—was caused by UDeCOTT or the project. Was the project over-budget? Were there defects in the engineering or execution of the project? If the answer is YES, and I doubt it, then I want to hear about that. If the answer is NO, which I think is the case, then what’s the problem!? The opposition should spare us the headaches and try to make themselves useful!

And once again I pose this question to the opposition; what is your alternative plan? What solutions do you offer if you think everything being done now or done in the past was wasteful expenditure?
These are the questions for which Kamla and colleagues don’t have answers. And this is what makes me think that this propaganda is all about undermining the government for pure political purposes.

An opposition that doesn’t care about the real problems of the people now, is not to be trusted, nor expected to bring about change when in power.
