I agree that conservatives are “seen as the rich, white man’s party”; but, IMO it’s because we allow liberals to define us that way. The left control education, the media, and the social sciences(who define what discrimination is) and use them against us to smear our views in the eyes of the youth and women.
Go see your tax dollars at work; try to post anything on the CBC site defending Sarah Palin.
They are using her as a bad example of a politician, surely we unwashed should be allowed to question that assertion.
Somewhat related, but a more interesting investigation would be of Liberal senator Colin Kenny and his long-time staff person who he agreed to ‘fire’ so that she could collect severance, as well as her pension (because she was retiring after 30 years), and then come back to work on contract. Both of them admit that this is what they did, but they are upset that the Senate oversight committee is not agreeing with them and is only letting her ‘retire’. So they intend to commit fraud using public funds and and then are upset when found out and given a slap on the wrist – new levels of Liberal entitlement are created everyday. To be fair to the leftist MSM, the Globe and Mail did run this in the on-line edition yesterday, but I think it is off now.
Liberal Iggy remains in the closet; mute, silent.
Time passes; nothing more from Iggy.
Iggy is frozen.

Not so fast T; how do you fiqure it fair when ACORN registered 10 Million new Democrats and 10 Million Illegal Mexicans voted ?
How else do you think the Democrats went from having 50 million voters in 2004 to 70 million voters in 2008 ?
And, while I am at it, I want to thank Mr. Obama for not closing the US/Mexico Border and letting in 896 cases of Mexican Swine Flu in 42 States.
But, as I recall, seems like Obama and Janet came on Live TV and said; Well , maybe, a few will die, but thats just the nature of the beast.
I need a new bumper sticker: Start your day off right, Slap a Liberal.
,
“Go see your tax dollars at work; try to post anything on the CBC site defending Sarah Palin.”
Stan, You’re right
It’s unbelievable, I’ve tried seven times.
I see this differently, Kate. First, this story like most things Canadian has zero traction in the USA, so won’t affect Palin at all.
Meanwhile, in liberal Canada, being compared with Palin will be bad for Dhalla.
And for Iggy, the photo with Dhalla is absolutely priceless. I don’t think any Conservative could find a better picture to run with this story.
So I say “Thanks, CBC”.
SDA Get’s Results!
Number seven found it’s way through, Thanks Kate.
Arlen Specter long time Republican Senator defects to Democrats. Mitt Romney blasting Palin and Limbaugh as being divisive to the party and an embarrassment. New factions including Romney, Jeb Bush and House Minority Whip, Eric Cantor forming within the Republican Party to oppose Palin/Limbaugh. Keep on fighting I say. It just solidifies Obama will be a two term President. Oh Yah!
The CBC is not allowed to pollute the sanctity of my radio or my television. The -only- time I ever click on a CBC link is when Kate puts one up to show what wankers they are.
We do not need the CBC. Shut them off, Canada. Let them talk into the ether to zero listeners, see how long the government keeps funding them.
“I don’t think any Conservative could find a better picture to run with this story.”
Except the pictures been altered.
They could have printed the entire picture, including the other woman in their party holding Iggy’s left hand who also extorted work for political favours from women brought to the country illegally.
Terry Tory: “Where are the Marge Thatchers, Ronald Reagans and Winston Churchills?
SARAH PALIN WE KNOW WHERE YOU STAND. HANG IN THERE, WE KNOW THE MSM FOR WHAT IT IS. VILE.”
It’s utterly ridiculous to put Sarah Palin in the same class as Thatcher, Reagan and Churchill (Churchill, for god’s sake!).
I have nothing against Palin as a person (or as a governor), but anyone who has watched her worst interviews last fall — and there were a few of them — should know that she doesn’t have the stuff to lead the most powerful nation on earth. That’s okay, because few people have that capacity, so it’s no slight against her.
But if conservatives/the right can’t come up with a better potential challenger to Obama and the Democrats over the next few years, we’re in big trouble.
All that doesn’t excuse the CBC’s behaviour, of course.
Whatever happened to innocent until proven Liberal?
Rick in K
Good point. I think it’s the CBC and Canadian MSM that is delusional. It’s them that think these stories have some kind of traction or clout. The intent is the same, the are just clueless to their impotence.
John B
Unless your preference is Latina, I’d just wait for sharia. Then it won’t cost you anything and you won’t be limited to Latinas(not that there’s anything wrong with that). I guess these are the benefits of assimilation.
BTW, what is the market value for a liberal urban (white) woman who can’t cook and doesn’t clean in a world dominated by sharia?
I can’t resist, I’ll answer my own question.
I guess she’d be about the same value as a Gucci purse. Looks good on your arm, but that’s about all it’s good for.
MJ… granted she’s no Reagan, Thatcher or Churchill yet.
However why don’t you read The Last Lion: Winston Churchill, Alone 1932-1940. IMHO, the best Churchill bio.
He was hammered by Fleet Street for 8 years and on more than one occasion put his foot in his mouth during interviews and speeches…

That has to hurt going from this list to ……. 50 most Ugly?
SHANIA TWAIN tops HELLO! magazine’s 50 MOST BEAUTIFUL CANADIANS
Some other Canadians who made HELLO’s Most Beautiful list:
– Dr. Ruby Dhalla
– Kiefer Sutherland
– Kim Cattrall
– Evangeline Lilly
– The Four Tenors
– 90210 stars: Shenae Grimes, Jessica Lowdes, Dustin Milligan, Jason
Priestley
– Adam Beach

I think all of you that attack Ms. Dhalla are closet
racists. She is Indian, and India continues to recognize the Caste system. Ms. Dhalla has simply imported that feature of her culture to Canada and engaged people of a lesser Caste to act as housekeepers.
Remember, Diversity and Multiculturalism are Canadian values. Those of you who are critical of her are abandoning those important values
Riding the hate wave.
There are too many reasons to list why the CBC should go. Let’s make things easier- why should the CBC stay? Anybody?
MJ, you should also do some research on how Thatcher and Reagan were mocked as “unelectable” in the years before their elections. Thatcher was mocked due to being from a modest background (grocer’s daughter) etc.
If you look at any Palin interviews before, during and after the eletion other than the Couric one, they are all fine. Some are great even.
And Steyn, Rush and VDH like her…so she must be doing something right!
I hate the CBC with all of my being. If it was privately paid for it would just make me laugh, but we all know for a fact it never could or will be…
Public funding for for the CBC can not be ended soon enough.
We do not need or want an investigation by politicians but let our police and our justice system fully investigate the charges which is the Canadian way.
Since when is the Ethics Commissioner of parliament part of Canada’s justice system?
When will the police forces become involved in Dhallagate, to assure the Philippine government that their citizens are not being mistreated in Canada, and that our revered justice system is “not corrupt from top to bottom” as accusations have been made of the Mexican government by some Canadian politicians in the recent past.
Can we expect that Philippine politicians will be traveling shortly to Canada demanding that their citizens are treated fairly by our justice system and to demonstrate that Canadian politicians are not above the laws of the land, and there is no political coverup?
Canada must demonstrate to the world, that visitors and people seeking employment here, from other countries are safe, treated humanely and with respect, and not abused, and won’t feel trapped and helpless in a foreign land but will be protected by a justice system.
Some Canadian politicians were very critical of Mexico, the government, and the justice system and demanded political interference at the highest levels. Now it is Canada’s turn to set the example for Mexico and others, to assure them that our justice system will intervene and investigate any accusations of breeches of human rights of visitors and foreign workers in Canada, and interventions by politicians or President Arroyo of the Philippines is not necessary.
Indiana Homez, 10:43…
You got it right.
Canadian Sentinel – I second you on that statement!
It is Governor Palin everyone…the msm never refers to the Owe without his title; the standard should apply to Governor Palin as well.
I note that the msm always says Senator MaCain, Governor Palin has a much more important job than Senator McCain, she is responsible for the biggest state in the union! The Liberano gal, Ruby, runs a household in Ontario! No comparison, no contrast…just stupid CbC with ‘stuck on stupid’ all over their ‘brand name’.
The leader of the Liberanos is also a pathetic figure – the head of a rag tag gang of leftovers from the Great Cretan era, petty thieves, liars, incompetants, a flock of cowards who could have never existed had it not been for better men/women like Ralph Kline and Mike Harris.
Did I mention that the people of Alaska get cheques in the mail when that state sells resources? Lost year it was about 2000 dollars for every Alaskan Man, woman and child – Alaskans like and respect Governor Palin WITH GOOD REASON. Governor Palin ‘walks the talk’; just like Winston Churchill, Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Regan, Prime Minister Stephen Harper and John Kennedy.

I don’t detect any sarcasm in this post, so I assume you’re being serious, Gurgit.
Sorry, slavery dressed up as some kind of quaint cultural practice is not a Canadian Value. The Caste system is not recognized as a legitimate practice in Canada. If it works for India, that’s super. But, it should be left there.
Gurgit Dharani, you say India still reckonizes the caste system, but Miss Dhalla is in Canada now, and Liberals are suppose to respect equality, right ?
So, now, who is the closet racist ?
,
Sorry Colin et al. I guess my message was too well written. I thought that when I mentioned Multiculturalism and Diversity are “Canadian Values” that you would see through charade.
“Dhalla is India’s Palin, says newspaper columnist” Spare me. Someone in the news media said it therefore it’s news. Not my fault. I’m not responsible. Just saying what someone else said.
Yeah, and I overheard someone say the president of the CBC is a member of the Ku Klux Klan who works on the side as a male prostitute when he isn’t selling kiddie porn on the internet. Can’t remember who said it, but I’m just reporting it. Sheesh!
Warning!
Careful that Gurgit bait people…Me smells an HRC fishing line.
Don’t be caught having to reGURGITate your opinion in front of those kangaroo courts. It’s all on your dime.
Is Gurgit Dharani for real?!?
Assuming so, he exemplifies what has gone so terribly wrong with Canada.
I first learned from Mark Steyn the true meaning of the world “multiculturalism”. I used to think it meant “a wonderful mixing of cultures all under the flag of Canada”. But it doesn’t mean that to all to the likes of Gurgit Dharani. Rather, to him & his ilk it means that all cultures and all cultural traditions, no matter how reprehensible to traditional Canadian values, are perfectly fine.
And the Liberal and NDP parties encourage folks like him to the extreme!
I am NOT now nor have I EVER been a member of any HRC, Senator McCarthy.
Just like to S##t disturb once in a while.
I thought old Abe Lincoln ended slavery!! Shame on the Liberals!! The more things change, the more they stay the same.
PS: The CBC has kept a low key on that one!!
CTV post Dhalla wants the Ethics Comm to investigate
Only thing about that headline is Its only the headline, CTV forgot to post the accompanying article Its Yesterdays article that is posted with the New headline.
Jason Kenney said it right: this is a Liberal Coverup, its not the Ethics Comm job to enforce provincial labor laws & minimum wage laws or immigration or criminal laws.
If you actually follow the link to the Indian newspaper it speaks favorably about Sarah Palin. Especially her public speaking ability. Of course this article was written in January
Now that Ruby Dhalla has a scandal on her hands I don’t understand why the link to Sarah Palin is relevant.
Is it to smear Palin? Or is it to compare Dhalla to the most dynamic women politician to come out of the US in a while?
When considering how to spin a story, CBCpravda could do worse than look to the Bible for inspiration.
For example, Ruby’s situation appears to have been foreseen in the Book of Revelation:
“How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.” -Revelation 18:7
No word yet, however, on whether Prince Iggy will deliver her from her sorrow.

Aaron Wherry at Macleans has also jumped on the “blame somebody else bandwagon”, but in his case, it’s “Look! Jason Kenney!”
To retaliate against the CBC. Write Ford and complain.
Ford sponsors Hock. Nite in Can
Ford needs money desperately so does CBC.
Hit the CBC where it hurts most with a very sensitive sponsor of their most popular show.
Another Liberal sow caught with their none morals hypocrisy of caring sharing hope changy emotionalism.
Not if its her giving out bucks ,like most liberals. As long as its taxpayer money they have much love to sell. No money no hug. Frankly she should be brought up on charges. Since when are politicians above the law? Taking her passport away while paying poverty wages, if any at all is confinement with slavery.
Then compare her with Obama’s “we don’t have to pay taxes like normal people” Cabinet.
The Entitlement zeitgeist of governments has got to be put down like a rabid dog.
JMO
What if Palin is really USA’s Dhalla?
Revnant Dream – so true. Having worked in the service industry (I was once a waitress), I know how ‘generous’ Dippers/Puffins are to lowly service workers. And they complain about everything/anything to the management in the hope that they can get a free meal. I could name names.
There really isn’t much in common between Palin and Dhalla; they’re not really direct counterparts.
Dhalla can’t hold a candle to Palin.
Dhalla’s a featherweight whereas Palin’s a heavyweight. No contest.
Jema please please do
Give us the list so we can shine the light.
Remember the slimy roaches hate the light.
Under the Charter of Rights she has done nothing wrong. She is merely practicing her Indian traditions. The caste system is perfectly legal here in Canada. We just need to meld it with Sharia Law and give it a cutesy name. Equity something or other.
Once you say “equity” no one can disagree with you or they are a sexist/racist etc.

Is it to smear Palin? Or is it to compare Dhalla to the most dynamic women politician to come out of the US in a while?
When considering how to spin a story, CBCpravda could do worse than look to the Bible for inspiration.
For example, Ruby’s situation appears to have been foreseen in the Book of Revelation:
“How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.” -Revelation 18:7
No word yet, however, on whether Prince Iggy will deliver her from her sorrow.
Canadian Sentinel: For your information the left has won against Palin in a fair, open and deocratic election and she LOST. Obama is President, Biden Vice President.

Thats why all those ACORN organizations from coast to coast are being charged and convicted of voter registration fraud.
The left does NOTHING fair open or democratic.
I cant wait for the day the Secret Service does to the big “0” what they did to kennedy.
Charles Adler – Move slider to 7:00 once window loads.
The entire hour is devoted to Ruby Dhalla and the ABSOLUTELY HYPOCRISY of so-called “progressives”!!!
Aaron Wherry at Macleans has also jumped on the “blame somebody else bandwagon”, but in his case, it’s “Look! Jason Kenney!”
To retaliate against the CBC. Write Ford and complain.
Ford sponsors Hock. Nite in Can
Ford needs money desperately so does CBC.
Hit the CBC where it hurts most with a very sensitive sponsor of their most popular show.
Another Liberal sow caught with their none morals hypocrisy of caring sharing hope changy emotionalism.
Not if its her giving out bucks ,like most liberals. As long as its taxpayer money they have much love to sell. No money no hug. Frankly she should be brought up on charges. Since when are politicians above the law? Taking her passport away while paying poverty wages, if any at all is confinement with slavery.
Then compare her with Obama’s “we don’t have to pay taxes like normal people” Cabinet.
The Entitlement zeitgeist of governments has got to be put down like a rabid dog.

What if Palin is really USA’s Dhalla?
Revnant Dream – so true. Having worked in the service industry (I was once a waitress), I know how ‘generous’ Dippers/Puffins are to lowly service workers. And they complain about everything/anything to the management in the hope that they can get a free meal. I could name names.
There really isn’t much in common between Palin and Dhalla; they’re not really direct counterparts.
Dhalla can’t hold a candle to Palin.
Dhalla’s a featherweight whereas Palin’s a heavyweight. No contest.
Jema please please do
Give us the list so we can shine the light.
Remember the slimy roaches hate the light.
Under the Charter of Rights she has done nothing wrong. She is merely practicing her Indian traditions. The caste system is perfectly legal here in Canada. We just need to meld it with Sharia Law and give it a cutesy name. Equity something or other.
Once you say “equity” no one can disagree with you or they are a sexist/racist etc.
gord referenced “her [Dhalla’s Sikh] Indian traditions” which include suttee*.
