  1. Ok, he’s pissed…. I read all the way down to the bottom of the page, and all I can say is I’m glad i’m not alone in my feelings about all the stuff that’s going on.
    I have fired off an email to the address he provided as this Sinclair butthead directly affects me as well.
    With the total errosion of the justice system, and Bananada not having any rules I can’t see anything coming.
    This is bad… very very bad…. there pushing people to a point that they are going to totally regret.

  2. The last paragraph in today’s Sinc. post:
    “I have a theory. I think the old PC party was just as corrupt and left leaning as the Liberal Party. I think that folks like Sinclair, Stronich, Orchard et al are the last vestages of that dead party. The CPC and Bloc represent something dangerous to those individuals and it’s going to get worse before it gets better.”
    Hate to say it but I think the “old school” PC’s have just as much to hide as the Libs… it explains why they’re fighting so hard against the CPC…

    Give that man a cigar.

  4. It is a bit hard to believe that the graft that continues to spew from the sewers of Ottawa has only been in place for ten or so years, isn’t it? I’ve been wondering what those old PCers have had against the CPC …
    I think Ian did a great job of articulating how I’ve been feeling for the last month or so.

  5. You can trace back that kind of graft and patronage to before Confederation. Macdonald and Laurier refined it into an art. Borden fought very hard to change the system so at least remove patronage from the civil service, and he was ridiculed at every turn. He did manage to make some changes, and was supported by the Progressives from rural Ontario and the West. Then Canadians’ attitudes started to change and between the 40s and 60s there seemed to be less patronage and what we now call corruption than previously (probably because of the increase in voice of those from the west). The exception is that this kind of activity remained the mainstay in Quebec — which is why Trudeau was unable to teach at a university in Quebec until after Duplessis was dead. When Trudeau took over the federal government he brought to Ottawa the Quebec way of doing business, that is, the old favouring the friends and the party way. Notice how every long-term PM since then has been from Quebec, and the corruption/patronage has increased accordingly? Mulroney and Chretien and Martin were/are all part of the vast Quebec patronage machine. This is why the “west” is often so much at odds with Ontario/Quebec, because it doesn’t like to play the game that way.

  6. Not hard to smell Sinc’s presence Kate. He carries the original stench of PCPC corruption…so strong even Muldoom couldn’t stand to have him in the same party/room.
    One of the original grafting Tories that sent legions of disgusted PCs to the Reform movement.

  7. Freedom International Canadian Chapter

    Update to the Sinc Stevens/Royal Commonwealth Society/Freedom International/Bloc-Harper Story.
    I received a note via e-mail from someone who decided to take a swing by the headquarters of Freedom International’s Canadian Headquarters and was hardly …
