Best Canadian Blog
2004 - 2007
Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Any bets they are all ready posting that video and trying to sell it? Notice how as soon as the riot police started to break things up,the anarchists screamed for help.Ummmmm…isn’t that sorta against what they are supposedly fighting against?
It will be a sad day if the left ever discovers that protests have never accomplished ANY political goals in all the history of humanity.
Anarchists requirement is to grow chicken feathers in there armpits. Sure will be sad to see them get stomped when the right winds up…… NOT.

Aukk. laddies there’ll be no wee nihilist left wi-out a bump under his bonnet as long as grounds keeper Wille is on the job.
Like all wild highlanders we were refused the breast at 3 days of age and fed wolverine droppings to toughen us up…. aukk.
“It will be a sad day if the left ever discovers that protests have never accomplished ANY political goals in all the history of humanity.”
That’s pretty narrow minded. I’m not a fan of the keffiyah wearing black shirts out there, but your remark is rather absurd. The US civil rights movement was indebted to protest marches and what the hippies call ‘direct action’ nowadays. How about Ghandi’s march to the sea? I’m sure you’ll qualify your definition of ‘prostest’ now.
Just sitting here at my office in London, watching BBC 24 since we have just had a series of blasts in the London Underground. No known cause just yet but “electrical faults” are being touted at the moment.
By my calculations, I had left the Tube at Embankment Station not more than five minutes before it all happened.
Never a dull moment!
On the subject of rioters and anarchists though, I have a small cobblestone from Prague which I use as a paperweight. Now, anarchists like to throw these things at the police.
The point is: properly thrown, they’re a lethal weapon. So police confronted by a group of rioters pelting them with cobblestones would be well within their rights to use deadly force.
Think about that.
I thought about that jjm, and me thinks you simply enjoy the crunch of bones under your big black boot.
I prefer to keep my wellingtons clear of any excremnt and so would counter cobblestones with 3 inch fire hose. Viscious… eh? 73s TG
Looks like you may have just escaped Osama’s wrath there, Big Guy. Osama guys are like the KKK. They do things behind a mask because they know their cause is wrong.
They can’t help but brag about their cowardly acts and that will eventually do them in. Capital punishment for bombers is too easy, but should be mandatory.
They sure do a lot of pointless killing of innocent people including kids and dogs.
Most dogs never did anything wrong to anyone ever. Talk about stupid.
Question is, how do you track down hopelessly depressed fudamentalists who become bored with doing graffiti on cars and begin planting bombs for a life. 73s, TG
A modern cavalry charge
Kate linked to a fascinating first-person account of being on the fringe of a police-versus-protesting-anarchists battle: As the reinforcements arrived, the foot-based riot line opened to let them in, let the cavalry withdraw behind, and then re-formed…
