“We are delighted that these regulations are now law, and we commend the provincial government for helping put the issue on the front burner. These requirements will push more companies to have the conversations they should be having around board and executive committee diversity and, hopefully, their talent development. Businesses need to tap the full pool of smart, talented people to stay competitive and strengthen our country’s economic future.” PeopleNeedsShouldCountryHelpingGovernmentLawCompanyIssuesEconomicTalentFrontsDevelopmentConversationDiversitySmartOur CountryHopefullyBoardsExecutivesPoolRegulationCommitteesRequirementsDelighted Author:Alex Johnston
“The monarchy that I hand over to my son is not going to be the same one that I have inherited. ... There is a tendency by a lot of officials to hide behind the king. And it's about time that officials take their responsibility and are responsible in front of the people. Because today, if you're appointed by the king, they don't feel that they're responsible for the people. If you have a government that is elected, they need to do the hard work — because if they don't, they won't be around the next time the ballot box is open.” PeopleIfsNeedsFeelsHardHandsGovernmentTodayNextBehindsResponsibilityFrontsSonHard WorkKingsResponsibleBoxesTendenciesOfficialsMy SonNext TimeMonarchyBallots Author:Abdallah II
“Since when do we let the government decide what is or isn't good for us? What the hell does Congress know about nutrition, anyway?... If the government can use force whenever something is "in our best interest" then government should force everyone to wake up at 6am every morning for calisthenics in the front yard. Fast food establishments should be torn down and replaced with bars that serve carrot juice and alfalfa sprouts, since - "it's in your best interest." This paternalistic attitude that "the government knows best" and that you are merely a helpless child is insulting and reprehensible.” IfsKnowsShouldChildrenDoeUseGovernmentForceInterestAttitudeMorningHellFrontsWake UpDown AndCongressBarsEstablishmentNutritionEvery MorningReplacedHelplessYardsTornJuiceInsultingFast FoodCarrotsSproutsCalisthenics Author:Michael Badnarik
