  1. Poll finds majority of Canadians feel we make too many accommodations to visible minorities. Enter Chretien henchman Donolo to explain the numbers… urban people are “chic”… rural are “hicks”… beer and popcorn anyone?
    ======================
    A majority of Canadians feel their country makes too many accommodations to visible minorities, according to a new poll.
    The survey, conducted for CTV News and the Globe and Mail by The Strategic Counsel, showed 61 per cent of Canadians felt Canada was doing too much.
    […]
    Fifty-five per cent of Canadians living in large cities said Canada was making too many accommodations for visible minorities in comparison to 71 per cent in communities of less than 30,000.
    “I think in a lot of smaller communities, people’s exposure to this is through the media, they see a lot of sensationalized stories — the debate over Shariah law, public funding for religious schools, whether women should be wearing veils to vote,” Peter Donolo, a partner with the polling firm the Strategic Counsel, told CTV.ca.
    “So they’ll always see these flashpoint issues whereas the reality of living in a large urban area where there might be large numbers of visible minorities is just a lot more mundane.”

  3. No, no, NO!!!
    Canadian Human Rights Tribunal gives away $500,000+ of taxpayer’s money
    I would be upset if a judge made this decision, but it is DISGUSTING that this gong show is giving away taxpayer money like this. I may be completely wrong, but I thought that in a claim of lost wages, the award is reduced by other employment that the person has had. (i.e. if I get fired wrongfully, and get a job the next day at twice my previous salary, I can’t claim any lost wages because I have suffered no real loss.) This guy worked as a customs agent and then as a Calgary policeman. He has been making a good wage for the past 9 years.
    Article has said this guy could get up to $650,000 of taxpayer money. This is ridiculous.

  4. Ted, nobody is stupid enough to take advice from you, certainly not Harper. Make you faux list as long as you want, when you get to the level of Adscam, Shawinigate, HRDC, $1B not to buy helicopters, and on, and on, and on, then you might actually have an argument.
    Nice bluff and bluster – I guess “Canadians” don’t want election right now. As for CPC and me, we would love an election right now, or anytime against your crew of clowns. Keep spouting your predictable and pathetic talking points – you have no money, no leader, no policies (unless anti-policies count).
    Your reverse pop psychology is laughable. Keep living the delusion, though.

  5. Ah, Shamrock. When you have no argument against the facts of Harper’s failed 2 years, what else is left but to launch personal attacks. Clearly, you’ve learned well from Harper’s own example.

  6. Biofuel Madness: Environmentalism exploited for political purposes
    By Dr. Tim Ball Tuesday, April 8, 2008
    “How did we get to “biofuel madness”? Environmentalism exploited for political purposes is the short answer. Sadly, biofuels are just the beginning. Other madness includes the carbon credit shell game that does nothing to reduce CO2; the myth that fossil fuel resources are running out; the myth of the viability of other alternative energies; the myth that pollution problems are getting worse in most of the world; the erroneous belief that CO2 is a pollutant; the failure to build adequate traditional power sources and the significant lead time to build these once the power shortages hit home, are just some of the existing problems of the exploitation.”

  7. Ted, Yawn. Yes, what a failed record – more legislation passed than three Grit administrations put together – all with Liberal support, er, abstention that is.
    You really are pathetic. Clearly, you’ve learned from the Grits “own example” of obfuscation, corruption and spurious talking points. Keep up the good work – with your help, we’re sure to secure a Tory majority.

  8. Ah, yes. That mythical Conservative majority.
    Let’s see now, a very divided opposition party with no real leader and no vision and no policies and no backbone and afraid of their own shadow and no money… while Harper controls the government, controls his caucus, controls the agenda, is tactical “genius”, inherited a solid economy with a fiscal surplus, has a united party, spends like a drunken soldier on people and ridings who might vote for him, has loads and loads of money (and most of it seemingly legal), constant attack ads the media is happy to repeat for free…
    … and yet…
    … and yet…
    … he’s hasn’t moved a fraction in the polls since the last election and some polls have him behind. What kind of leader is that?? He’s gone after the next election: he’ll “win” but by less and then he’s gone.
    The best, perhaps the only thing, going for the Conservatives right now is Dion and the Liberal Party. The best, perhaps the only thing, going for the Liberals right now is Harper and the Conservatives Party.

  9. Ted, useless garbage like you have no place in polite society. Take your blinkered hatred and moral corruption elsewhere. No one is as blind as a cretinous liberal partisan, and no one is as corrupt. The liberals stole millions from the taxpayers, yet run free with nary an apology or admission in sight. They sit on their hands, totally bereft of principle because they are afraid of facing the electorate. In the meantime, Harper’s government has done more good for the country in two years than Chrétien in 13. Case in point: Chrétien put the lives of men and women better than he (or you) will ever be at risk by starving our armed forces then sending them in harm’s way. If aircrew had died because of an ancient Sea King crashing because it had not been replaced by the EH101 Chrétien cancelled out of political opportunism, he would have been guilty of murder. Don’t even argue with me on this – it was crass politicking with the lives of humans.
    Harper has done nothing less than miracles in the last two years correcting the criminal neglect of Chretien and his moral degenerates.
    There is a reason Dion and the rest of corrupt filth are digging at any scandal they can manufacture: they are the Canadian equivalent of Mugabe’s ZANU-PF: useless, corrupt and utterly bereft with only one goal in mind – power.
    That being said, Ted, kiss my a$$ you retard

  10. “have no place in polite society”
    Oh Brave Anonymous, how would you know what polite society would accept or not?
    And how does corruption under a past Liberal leadership make Harper’s corruption and incompetence acceptable for people like you?

  11. ted:
    What corruption and incompetence?
    Real-world example please and leave the tinfoil hat off.
    None of the made-up scandals are going to stick.
    Tough luck for your ilk.

  12. Ted: “Ah, yes. That mythical Conservative majority…Let’s see now, a very divided opposition party with no real leader and no vision and no policies and no backbone and afraid of their own shadow and no money…”
    Gotta agree Ted, Tory majority will be difficult, but not impossible;though the fun part is getting you to admit your leader and party are a joke.
    BTW, Ted, Canadians make final decisions about who they’ll vote near the end of election campaigns. Before that polls (which, I guess you’re referring to)are what dogs pee on.
    The Liberal Party of Canada is unelectable right now, and it drives Ted et al crazy, even though he doesn’t actually like Liberals.
    Libs campaign platform will be a mix of stopping a Tory majority and admitting they’re idiots; it’s priceless. Their only (slim) chance for power is to convince Canadians that Tories are just as slimy, incompetent, arrogant and culpable as they are. The once proud LPC has become a caricature of itself, afraid to face the people or parliament, bleating on hystericaly and hypocriticaly, looking sillier by the day.
