  3. Good news Kate, it was a one page letter. I can hardly wait for the excuse. But I am locked and loaded with at least three more.
    Time to take Lucy’s crown. But only with serious cases. Have you seen what MSM has been reporting on the Sikhs – imagine showing pictures of posters with assorted assassins which were displayed at the recent Sikh celebrations – talk about bringing an identifiable group into hatred and contempt. And the Globe even had the audacity to use the word “terrorist” and paraphrase organizers making remarks which could only serve to create more hatred and contempt. Shocking! But I’ll have a complaint on the move soon. The Globe and Mail will soon learn not to post this sort of reporting on any website in Canada.
    And, remember, it’s the process which is the real punishment.

  6. “Irving’s list brings us the Nanamuit word for “robin”: “Koyapigaktoruk.””
    …-
    “CATO: Climate Speculators Have (Robin’s) Egg on Their Face”
    “””The Inuit language for 10,000 years never had a word for ‘robin,'” McCain lamented, “and now there are robins all over their villages.” The BBC even titled a program on arctic warming “No Word for ‘Robin’: Climate Change in the Canadian Arctic.”
    What a shame! Pretty little birds invading the Arctic, bringing joy with their whoop of spring!
    But, of course, it’s not true.”
    “At the same time, how about a little truth-telling about the hoax of “Warming Island,” an islet off Greenland that was — erroneously — thought to be a part of Greenland, connected by land lying beneath the ice.
    As Greenland warmed over the last decade, the ice melted and revealed open water underneath, thus giving birth to a “new” island. Climate change enthusiasts claimed the channel between island and mainland had not been revealed for countless millennia.
    As it turns out, maps show that Warming Island, indeed, was very much an island a mere 50 years ago, when Greenland, in fact, was warmer than it has been for the last 10 years.
    As sure as the robin’s song of spring, we continue to hope that America’s best newspaper (and the BBC) will sing out the truth about climate change and the bob, bob, bobbin’ of the red, red Koyapigaktoruk in the North American Arctic.”

  7. Thanks for the link to The Anchoress, Kate, for news of Pope Benedict XVI’s visit to the United States: good stuff!
    Here’s a excerpt from his first speech, words and ideas that all Canadians need to take to heart–especially in these perilous, post-Librano times wherein Canada, with the help of the MSM, Librano-cheering, Flying Monkey Squad has all but turned our country into a Godless Banana Republic, despite our institutions’ deep roots in Judeo-Christian principles and values:
    [Begin quote]
    Freedom is not only a gift, but also a summons to personal responsibility. Americans know this from experience — almost every town in this country has its monuments honouring those who sacrificed their lives in defence of freedom, both at home and abroad.
    The preservation of freedom calls for the cultivation of virtue, self-discipline, sacrifice for the common good and a sense of responsibility towards the less fortunate. It also demands the courage to engage in civic life and to bring one’s deepest beliefs and values to reasoned public debate.
    In a word, freedom is ever new. It is a challenge held out to each generation, and it must constantly be won over for the cause of good. Few have understood this as clearly as the late Pope John Paul II. In reflecting on the spiritual victory of freedom over totalitarianism in his native Poland and in eastern Europe, he reminded us that history shows, time and again, that “in a world without truth, freedom loses its foundation,” and a democracy without values can lose its very soul.
    Those prophetic words in some sense echo the conviction of President Washington, expressed in his Farewell Address, that religion and morality represent “indispensable supports” of political prosperity.
    [End quote]
    This Pope, though lacking the extrovert, charismatic touch of Pope John Paul II is, nevertheless, brilliant and compelling. His gifts complement those of J2P2, and I, for one, am grateful for his deep, clear thinking on matters of universal importance–not shot from the hip but mined from the depths of his no-slouch brain, his soul, and the Mind and Soul of the Creator of the Universe.

  8. Oh my…from Don Surber: the ex-preident of the USA believes the dictators speak for the all the people..?
    I followed the link…and yes that is a quote…
    oh my!Scarry that Carter was in the White House!

  9. From CFCF 12 Montreal,
    Mugger beaten…
    A mugger picked on the wrong man in the Villeray district Tuesday night.
    The victim beat him so badly that he’s fighting for his life in hospital.
    About 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, the mugger contronted the man in his 30s at Papineau and Belanger.
    The victim beat the mugger about the head and upper body with his fists.
    The robber was left bloodied on the ground, and had to be transported to hospital where he’s in critical condition.
    So far neither the robber nor the victim has been charged.
    … … …
    Now if only more people dealt with muggers this way…any liberal wants to try and convince me there would be more muggings instead of less?

  10. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20080417.wforcesads17/BNStory/Afghanistan/home
    Once again, according to the MSM, the big bad Conservatives and their “hidden agenda”. The shock and horror that the new CF recruiting ads don’t show Afghanistan.
    First off the CF ads are done by DND after all sorts market testing to actually see what will get recruits in through the door, after all recruiting ads are meant to do just that, recruit soldiers, they are not some reflection of the Conservative “hidden agenda” and attempt to hide the Afghan mission.
    Second, if someone shows up to a recruiting centre and doesn’t know that the Afghanistan mission is going on, it is probably best for the recruiter to send him/her on their merry little way.
    I wish the media would stop trying to make controversy where there is none.

  12. From CTV.ca story on the RCMP “raid”:
    The controversy descended into regular House of Commons theatrics Wednesday when Deputy Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff began a question with the suggestion that the RCMP had to enter the Tory offices wearing “bullet proof vests.”
    Nice. Suggesting that the RCMP have to fear getting shot at Conservative HQ.
    The media has given Ignatieff a free pass on this little slur. This deserves more attention.

  13. Now even the Globe and Mail editorial writers are getting fed up with Conservative pork and questionable ethical behaviour.
    Are Flaherty’s days numbered?
    ———————–
    A flavour of pork
    Finance Minister Jim Flaherty has an unfortunate habit of taking disproportionate care of his riding and his political pals. Pork-barrelling provisions are sprinkled through his budgets. Now, as The Globe and Mail reports today, Mr. Flaherty flatly ignored the advice of his bureaucrats when he awarded an untendered $122,000 speech-writing contract to a former supporter. Worse, when asked about this contract two months ago, Mr. Flaherty implied that the bureaucracy was at fault for this violation of the Conservative government’s guidelines. “What was not done was the administrative functions were not properly followed,” he told the House of Commons. “That has been fixed.”
    That answer is not good enough, given that Mr. Flaherty is the one who broke those so-called functions when he hired Conservative Hugh MacPhie to work on the 2007 federal budget. At the time, senior bureaucrats argued that communications experts were widely available, so it would be hard to come up with a “reasonable rationale” for an untendered contract of such magnitude.[…]
    There is a disturbing pattern here. In last year’s budget, Mr. Flaherty ignored bureaucratic advice and qualified two cars manufactured in his area for an incentive program to encourage the purchase of fuel-efficient vehicles. […]
    In this year’s budget, Mr. Flaherty offered to fund a train to run through his Whitby-Oshawa riding, though many other projects, such as high-speed trains from Montreal to Ottawa, should take precedence. He also offered to fund a multimillion-dollar facility for people with disabilities, provided applicants met guidelines that conveniently applied to a pet project in his riding. Few other facilities would qualify because Ottawa has given applicants only 30 days to apply for funding.
    Such ploys might have been classic in an outmoded era of pork-barrel politics. The Conservatives promised to run a clean and accountable government. Someone should remind Mr. Flaherty that those fervent promises apply to him too.

  17. Shellfish pose new danger for F-22s
    According to a service press release, officials at Langley Air Force Base, Va., are increasingly worried about the threat posed to shiny new F-22 Raptors by local gulls. The Raptors are invisible to the most highly advanced missiles, but can’t avoid the clams and mussels dropped by the gulls.
    The gulls drop shellfish onto Langley’s runways to break open the creatures and eat the insides. But left on the runway, the shells could ruin an engine or, worse, cause a crash if sucked into an air intake…

  19. Melanie Phillips, An Iraqi Gets It
    Unlike so many in the west, this London-based Iraqi author, Aref Alwan has a grasp of history and is honest enough to acknowledge the truth about the unmitigated evil that is dominating the Middle East and the world. In a remarkable article, he identifies the Arab refusal to recognise other people’s rights which has given rise to the ‘enormous lie’ that Palestine was stolen from the Arabs in the ‘nakba’ – ie, the creation of Israel in 1948. Refusing to recognise anyone else’s rights, he says, led to the Arab persecution of Jews, Kurds and Copts and has created the monstrosity of Islamic terrorism…

  20. I guess that’s the best Ted can do; meanwhile LPC still has not repaid the $millions they took from taxpayers, opting instead to hypocritically bleat about the greatest scandal in parliamentiary history (Goodale) and bullet proof vests worn by RCMP.
    When the Grits abandon their corrupt political culture, admit their wrongdoing in Adscam (and countless other pork barrel/illegal scemes), then pay back the money they owe to the taxpayers, then maybe they can point fingers. Until they do, they can shut the f**k up; or force an election.
    Ted, that was predictably pathetic; and spare us the “I know what you are, but what am I” crap. Go ahead, Grits, fight an election on this one.

  22. Apparently Diane Finley is receiving “threats” because of the immigration proposals,and requires RCMP protection!

    Last paragraph.
    Isn’t this exactly how things have gone in Europe? Any attempt to restore some balance in the system is met with increasingly shrill yelling from the median and the lefties, and eventually violence is threatened, and often committed.
    If we don’t fix things in the next few years, I think it will be too far gone to ever fix in our lifetimes.

  23. It’s a good thing that Jimmy Carter WAS in the Whitehouse … well relatively speaking anyway.
    He makes an excellent example of what NOT to do in so many ways. Carter Cried …. People Died!
    Except for that Habitat for Humanity thing… maybe.

  24. No, “Osama” and Hillary, this isn’t a “how to” manual.
    Hans A. von Spakovsky, Where There’s Smoke, There’s Fire: 100,000 Stolen Votes in Chicago
    The “Truth About Voter Fraud,” according to activist groups like the Brennan Center, is that “many of the claims of voter fraud amount to a great deal of smoke without much fire…. The allegations simply do not pan out.”
    Chicago, however, is known for its fires, and there was a roaring one there in 1982 that resulted in one of the largest voter fraud prosecutions ever conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice… This case of voter fraud is worth studying today be­cause it illustrates the techniques that political machines and organized political groups use to steal elections. Even in the present day, this threat is not hypothetical…

  27. “sacrifice for the common good ” is also what the Tories are doing by shovelling out $19 billion a year in direct subsidies to business.
    Sacrificing your tax dollars for their common good.

  28. Diane Finley receiving death threats?
    I wonder which ‘visible multicultural community’ is making the threats?
    This more than anything proves the immigration overhaul is the right thing to do for Canada. Keep the violent immigrants out, as they used to say in the old country.

  29. I wonder if the Pope’s visit, enthusiastic crowds, great message to get back to your roots will have any effect in November. One sure feels very uplifted after watching the pomp and ceremony, for catholics and others, as compared to how one feels after listening to the rantings of Rev Wright.
    My son asked a question, the Pope is the Head of the Catholic Church, Archbishop of Cantebury is Head of the Anglican church, there is a President and council of 12 that leads the LDS church.
    His question, who is the head, leader whatever of the Islamic followers. I told him some guy that died a few thousand years ago. Is there one mullah or whatever who is he.

  30. Just when you thought Rowan Atkinson couldn’t get any dumber:

    I guess the 250 million Christians, Hindus, Jews, Zorastrians, Buddhists and Animists slaughtered by the practioners of peace over the last 1350 years don’t count.

    9:5 Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolaters wherever ye find them, and take them (captive), and besiege them, and prepare for them each ambush. But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then leave their way free. Lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

  31. Chances for a June election look to be very high… two former Liberal MP’s in Dion’s office, who lost their seats in the 2006 election, just left their posts in the OLO… only makes sence if they KNOW the Liberals have decided to take us down, and they’re going back to their old ridings to start campaigning full time.

  33. maz2;
    I am currently in India where the focus has been on a single protester merely waving a Tibetan flag in defience during the torch run. He was roundly attacked by 12 armed Indian police officers. The reporters have been asking if the public if this makes any sense at all and to voice their opinion.
    Personally, I will not be watching these Olympic proceedings at all this time. I feel the best way to have the world see the objection to China’s abuses is to have the major world networks suffer significant losses to their ratings. Money talks and lost money shouts.
    Leave politics to the lack lustre, spineless civil servants. Allow our athletes to make up their own minds whether to compete or not. Don’t expect the media whores of the networks to voice your true opinions.
    JUST…..DON”T…..WATCH.
    If the viewers are the lowest in IOC history, there will be no other option than to change the way they administer the contracts. China will have been delt a huge shaming from the citizens of the free world. What more could we ask for?

  34. Shamrock:
    It is my hope that the Conservatives campaign as you do. There’s no way The Right Honourable Stephen Brian Jean Harper has a chance of winning if they do.
    Canadians will not care about what happened two Prime Ministers ago.
    More to the point, if Harper tries to run on “accountability” and “ethics” again he will be:
    (a) making the mistake of Ernie Eves and Paul Martin and many others, i.e. trying to run the same campaign twice (Eves: Dalton is “not ready”, Martin: “scary Conservatives”, both failed). Run a campaign about your opponent’s weaknesses instead of yourself once, but try to have two campaigns without talking about yourself and Canadians will see through the tactic
    (b) be lauged off the campaign trail. In two short years, the Conservatives have accomplished what took 13 years for the Liberals to accomplish:
    – Flaherty’s pork-barrelling
    – Cadman bribery scandal
    – In-and-Out scandal and RCMP raid (as Harper said “I think the mere existence of a police investigation indicates we should have a wider public inquiry into the practices that are going on here…”)
    – directing friendly members of the press to ask specific Conservative written questions to Liberal candidates
    – when all else fails, try to silence opposition or bad news: sue the opposition party and its members, filibuster your own committees so they don’t function, ignore access to information requests, muzzle independent Crown agencies by fighting them court (the Military Police Complaints Commission) or firing them in the dark of the night (CNSC)
    – obfuscation, lies, deceipt, incompetence on detainees
    Quite an impressive list. For such a short period of time.
    What is particularly funny/ironic/sad/pathetic, is that so many of these ethical problems are exactly the same type of issues that brought the Liberals deservedly down.
    – creating their own sponsorship program after Martin cancelled it (and asking fellow caucus members for “worthy causes” to sponsor before rules have been established or the program made public)
    – the recurring problem of sole-sourcing contracts in breach of rules
    – luring party floor-crossers with prominent posts
    – income trust broken promise easily as bad as the GST broken promise
    – the arrogance of Jim “Don’t invest in Ontario” Flaherty and Peter “small man of Confederation” Van Loan and so many others constant attacks on Ontario has done the Conservatives more damage in Ontario already than “beer and popcorn”
    My prediction? In the aftermath of the next election – which will be very disappointing for all 4 parties – will result in a total cleaning out of the leadership of all 4 for the good of Canada.

  37. Forgot a few others:
    – record shattering spending in first budget
    – the emerging University of Calgary campaign funding scandal (too new to yet get a nifty name, but we’ve been too busy with all the other Conservative scandals)
    – record shattering use of polling to decide how to govern

  39. Ted —
    What Flaherty pork barreling? . . .oh ya, for the disability group (not considered “pork barreling” by many, and in any event, a bit less offensive than tactics such as the sale of the Digby wharf to Liberal insiders — there is a lot of Liberal dirt not currently in the public eye — (real dirt — not innuendos and unproven allegations!) that can easily be drummed up for an election if necessary. The Conservatives do not have a “recurring” problem with sole source — there is one example of a speech writer (an acknowleged mistake), and the rest are under $25,000 contracts. NOONE — including other contractors want to get involved in having to develop bids for small contracts — it’s a waste of everyone’s time. But now that you bring up “untendered” — how about that DND building in Ottawa built under Chretien? I had heard (from an entirely credible source) that the building contract was never tendered, and that the contract went to friends and relatives of Liberal insiders. That could be wrong but I heard it from a source who was very likely to know.
    Anyway — I think the Liberals are making a mistake trying to smear the Conservatives — and the Conservatives are smart enough to know that the Canadian people will not respond positively to an election fought on accountability — primarily because I think they are sick of being jerked around by such things as unprovable allegations (Cadman) and 17-year old video tapes.
    A lot of Liberal effort seems to be going into proving that the Conservatives are “just as corrupt”, but I don’t think anyone is really interested in this broken record. Are there any policies Liberals plan to talk about during the election. Thought not — oh wait — I had forgotten about Kyoto and carbon tax — go for it!

  40. Ted,
    All of which adds up to public apathy.
    Where are the millions stolen from the taxpayers? What of the billions lost in the boondoggles? Shwanigate? The long gun registry? Power Corp, Total Fina and CSL? Etc., etc., etc.
    Also, how did the CBC know ahead of time to show up at the Conservative offices? For that matter, how did the Liberals and their video camera operator know? Who tipped them off in order for them to film this convenient footage?
    The Conservatives govern, while the juvenile Liberals create and stage direct a scam of the week, all while voting with the government on every issue. That in and of itself is a scandal.
    Furthermore, don’t you have an ambulance to chase? You certainly don’t have an audience here for your ludicrous smears and unintelligent comments.

  41. I haven’t read the comments above yet, but have visited the Anchoress’s blog about the visit of Pope Benedict. How generous of you, Kate, to include this site. Thank you so much!
    Even if I weren’t a Roman Catholic—a very new one—I’d have been so impressed by Benedict’s quiet reserve and humility, not to mention his obvious goodness and razor sharp mind. As one of the commentators said on CNN yesterday morning, he writes all his own addresses. And what a tour de force—stated clearly, simply, with no fireworks— were his words for all of us yesterday. My husband—not a Roman Catholic, but a believing Christian—came into the room and, in tears and smiles, I told him how proud I am to have such a man as Benedict the spiritual leader of my church. My husband was fully in sync and supportive and regretted the buffoons who apparently “run”, into the ground, the church to which he belongs.
    Even here at SDA, I didn’t mention for the longest time that I was a Christian or that I became a Roman Catholic: the negative stereotyping is now so ingrained in this society, I’m sure that even some who appreciated my posts were put off once they knew I was “one of those”. Hey, even members of my family feel that way. I think dissing the Roman Catholic Church—other Christians too—is the last frontier of bigotry—and fully supported by our secular, liberal elites. What utter hogwash, and altogether hypocritical and intolerant.
    I really identify with this section of Benedict’s address: “The preservation of freedom calls for the cultivation of virtue, self-discipline, sacrifice for the common good and a sense of responsibility towards the less fortunate. It also demands the courage to engage in civic life and to bring one’s deepest beliefs and values to reasoned public debate.” Except for here, I usually keep my mouth shut in public: with our free speech rights now severely truncated in the “free” country of Kanadistan, the consequences for not going along with the Zeitgeist (Spirit of the Age) can be severely punitive.
    One of my favourite choral pieces is Palestrina’s “Tu Es Petrus”: “You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church”. I thank God for the visit of this holy man to the USA and for God’s providence in giving the late 20th and early 21st centuries two such exceptional “Peters” as John Paul II and Benedict XVI: Alleluia! Men for all seasons (who make most temporal leaders look like pygmies).
    P.S. I’ve already “outed” myself, so I might as well put in a good word, no problem for me, for GW Bush, a man who definitely knows what he is dealing with: holiness. GWB met the pope at the airport, something he’s never done before. And, when asked what he saw in Benedict’s eyes, GWB apparently replied, “God”. I suggest that GWB’s definitely onto something to which our arrogant, trite, 15 minutes of fame society and MSM should take heed.
    (It’s GOD that should be paid some heed: IMO, the pope is one of His key messengers.)

  42. U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates wants university-based think tanks similar to RAND Corporation to promote research in certain areas, including:

    Third, Religious and Ideological Studies. There is little doubt that eventual success in the conflict against jihadist extremism will depend less on the results of individual military engagements and more on the overall ideological climate within the world of Islam. Understanding how this climate is likely to evolve over time, and what factors – including U.S. actions – will affect it thus becomes one of the most significant intellectual challenge we face.
    It has been a long time since religious issues have had to be addressed in a strategic context. A research program along these lines could be an important contribution to the intellectual foundation on which we base a national strategy in coming years and decades.

    Did he send copies of his proposals to Steven Coughlin, the Pentagon’s on-again, off-again expert on Islamism?

  45. A crystal ball, or just plain common sense?
    What he is saying, thousands and hundreds of thousands are saying and thinking — not throughout Great Britain, perhaps, but in the areas that are already undergoing the total transformation to which there is no parallel in a thousand years of English history. In 15 or 20 years, on present trends, there will be in this country three and a half million Commonwealth immigrants and their descendants. That is not my figure. That is the official figure given to parliament by the spokesman of the Registrar General’s Office. There is no comparable official figure for the year 2000, but it must be in the region of five to seven million, approximately one-tenth of the whole population, and approaching that of Greater London. Of course, it will not be evenly distributed from Margate to Aberystwyth and from Penzance to Aberdeen. Whole areas, towns and parts of towns across England will be occupied by sections of the immigrant and immigrant-descended population.
    …It is this fact which creates the extreme urgency of action now, of just that kind of action which is hardest for politicians to take, action where the difficulties lie in the present but the evils to be prevented or minimised lie several parliaments ahead.
    …
    We are on the verge here of a change. Hitherto it has been force of circumstance and of background which has rendered the very idea of integration inaccessible to the greater part of the immigrant population — that they never conceived or intended such a thing, and that their numbers and physical concentration meant the pressures towards integration which normally bear upon any small minority did not operate. Now we are seeing the growth of positive forces acting against integration, of vested interests in the preservation and sharpening of racial and religious differences, with a view to the exercise of actual domination, first over fellow-immigrants and then over the rest of the population.

    The lawyer, Shatha Ali Nasser, said the girl is just one of thousands of underaged girls who have been forced into marriages in this poor tribal country at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula.
    The girl’s story has drawn headlines in Yemen because she took the unusual step of seeking out a judge on her own to file for divorce.
