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."

Is “For Legal Reasons” (the explanation for why comments were closed) the secular-humanist version of “Insh’Allah”?
Cowards.
It’s a damned good thing comments are disabled,because I was going to hypothesize that a radical Muslim might have had something to do with the bomb threat,which is clearly Islamophobia,and I apologize to Richard Warman in advance.
This case is an excellent example of why we need capital punishment in this Country,for the honour of our Nation.
More evidence of the religion of peace?
I have yet to see an enabled comments section in any major newspaper related to the Shafia trial.
I love how they have “honour killings” in quotes. Pretty much says it all, doesn’t it?
Could be Shafia supporters, or it could be someone who wants to see them blown to hell. This trial, more than any since the Bernardo trial, Makes me wish we have the death penalty.
“comments disabled” means they already know what I think and don’t care.
So I didn’t read their article and give them a hit on their server. Because I already know what -they- think, and don’t care.
Two solitudes.
PET* Cemetery Report.
AlMoh’s Mohammedan “bomb” has had its desired effect at G-M.
As the axiom says: First casualty of war is always Truth.
“Comments have been disabled”
Now, we try Our CBC link. (Not.)
*H/T Big Bertha.
Please bring back the death sentence.
And over at the communist broadcasting corporation, they reported it as a “security issue.”
In Islam these killings are legal. Muslims are feeling oppressed by the kuffars legal system of man made laws. They have to react, ‘Slums gotta be ‘Slums.
Yeah sure. They mean something different in their own language and besides, in their own country this would be no big deal.
The Globe and Mail has been disabled for at least 20 years by progressive hogwash and PC dillweeds.
We are the religion of peace and if you do not believe us we will kill you!
The Champ:
The death sentence is still out there. It just requires Mere Citizens to do the work that “Law Enforcement” and the “Legal System” refuse to do. After all, this whole trial is about the Religion of Peace enacting the death sentence for those who offended their sensibilities. If “Law Enforcement” and the “Legal System” are so willing to defer to them, how could they possibly do otherwise for Mere Citizens who only wish to enjoy their rights?
Although it is far better done the ranchers’ way:
Shoot. Shovel. Shut up.
Our opaque unaccountable government and it’s corrupt agents cannot be trusted with the responsibility of the power of imposing capital punishment.
It wouldn’t be people like Stephen Harper with that power, it would be people like Dalton McGuinty and Allison Redford, not to forget the kind of cops who tazered Robert Dziekański to death at Vancouver International or framed David Milgaard for murder in Saskatoon.
In the history of the world, how many times has a telephoned bomb threat been real? Do people really go to the trouble of building an explosive device, secreting it inside the target structure, and then phone the police to warn them?
At least someone finally made them feel at home here in Canada.
That bomb threat should have made allot of Liberals happy. Save for the bloody carnage afterwards, it must have been a romantic moment for the crazy little lovebirds.
Dan S – The Tenerife airport disaster (KLM 4805 and PanAm 1736) with 583 total fatalities was indirectly the result of a bomb threat at the Gran Canaria Airport, which was preceded by a phone call. The flights were re-routed to a smaller airport, which ultimately resulted in the human error induced crash.
Trivia for the day. . . .
Fox is covering the story in their morning cycle

Shafia is only one letter different from Sharia.
Should start a pool on what their sentences will be.
As far as I know there’s no such thing as “honour killings”in a civilized society. That the term is used is asinine to begin with, there is no honour in killing.
If people want to drag their archaic beliefs to this country and practice them they will have to be treated as criminals when they act on them.
This case is one where our justice system has an opportunity to send a clear message should they be convicted of murder.
Don’t prejudge – it was only one threat! See, that’s the influence of the “moderates” we keep hearing about.
At sentencing the presiding judge should just go ahead and invoke the death penalty.
Once the emperor(Capital Punishment) is exposed perhaps we could have a mature debate in this country about the merits of CP in certain cases such as this.
I won’t hold my air.
At sentencing the presiding judge should just go ahead and invoke the death penalty.
Which would trigger a mistrial and necessitate rerunning the whole dog & pony show at taxpayer’s expense.
I’m for justice and believe that justice calls for the death penalty in cases like this(I also believe in the deterrent effect); but abuse of power, process, and ‘mission creep’ are hallmarks of the decadent society we inhabit today so NO I would not entrust the current governments with such power especially since no moves are being made to hold government and it’s agents more accountable before we give them more power.
Tooba Yahya sounds like something the Shmenges brought the house down with.

“….there is no honour in killing.”
You see you’re obviously not culturally enriched enough. Better be careful or you’ll end up in some forced by court order multicultural sensitivity program.

“Should start a pool on what their sentences will be.”
Given convictions on first degree, 25 year minimum life sentence. Women are rarely found guilty of first degree but this chicky is a special case.
Probably 25 for the dad, maybe 10 tops for the lunatic mom and 10 for the nice young man. Don’t want to make a hardened criminal out of him now do we!

A nice moderate immigrant family like this will have the Liberal left demanding millions in financial compensation for their inconvenience and brutal harassment by the Harper government.
Their “disaffected youth” son may even end up being the new darling Kadar #2 Canada’s first Islamic hero and most treasured son of the nation.
That’s okay G&M – if I can’t comment on it I ain’t readin’ it!
Further, if you are going to censor that rag sheet so that people can’t speak I won’t buy your paper either.
Watch out for that asteroid!
I’m told that they have a couple of WASP suspects hold up in Hodgeville, Sk.
Ya right.
The idea behind calling it an “Honour Killing” is that the killing must take place to preserve the family honour.
What needs to be done is to convince these people that a virtual killing is enough to satisfy cultural demands, such as what some orthodox Jews do when one of their children converts to Christianity.
The Jewish patriarch says, “You are dead to me” and the family then has a symbolic funeral with grieving and never speaks the name of that virtually killed relative again.
Or they could do what the Japanese used to do and say, “I cannot live without honour” and commit seppuku.
Of course the “death before dishonour” question is a little harder when it’s yourself who is going to do the dying instead of someone else…
You are absolutely right Knight99, but just remember, it is the Harper Regime not government.
i bet they walk ….
Actually, Dan S., that was the standard practice during the Northern Irish rebellion against the Protestants. The bombs were indeed real, and the calls were made in time to allow the people to be evacuated. There was at least one time they did NOT place the call in time, but for the most part they did their best. Even the Omagh bomb was called in well before the explosion.
It is interesting that the article does not indicate which side the perpetrator of the bomb scare supported, the court or the defendants. Given the level of tolerance the G&M has for minority groups, we may only surmise based on the fact that it was the prosecution’s summation that was disrupted, not the defence.
Nah..
Don’t give them a death sentence.
Put them in a dark prison cell with a big muscle bound hairy transsexual brute named Brutus.
Every night for the next 25 years he will make them discover that 76 virgins do exist in the duodenum paradise..
Of the Mohammedan regime’s “honour killers”.
Rise Up!, Rise Up! exhorted the Count From Harvard. Those words are code words for the leftists and allies.
But, no ploblem*; data says*.
…-
“Honour killings on the rise in Canada: Study”
“*Law professor Marie-Pierre Robert, who authored the study, said data indicates such a move isn’t needed because honour killers are always prosecuted to the maximum under Canadian law.”

Regarding ‘Religion of Peace’, I note that an athiest/secular group attempting to host a speaking engagement in Britain, chickened out when a young Islamist brandishing (the horror!) a video camera threatend the audience by filming them and saying, “we know where you live”.
On a better note however, you may enjoy a wonderful debate titled “Is Islam a Religion of Peace” – an ‘Intelligence Squared’ series that is very good. At the end, more of the audience were converted to the viewpoint that it is NOT a religion of peace.

Editor’s Note: We have closed comments on this story for legal reasons. We appreciate your understanding.
Oh we understand all right. Cowards all at the Globe. It does not fit your narrative of Moderate Islam.
Infidels judging Muslims cannot be allowed.
Only the Muslims have the right, where all benighted heathens to them.
Even if they all get life in prison (not) it would still be luxury living compared to the rat holes they come from. 3 good meals a day (plus snacks of course) and all the recreation they can handle. Their own little Mosque will be a pre-requsite of course. Meals will be all Halal and the prison will have to adapt to their new guests and all their special needs. The cheap alternative is to deport them but that is too logical.

‘…just remember, it is the Harper Regime not government.”
I stand corrected.
could someone wake up More Hamed Ali (or would that be ASSius Clueless) and ask him about the piecefull nature of Islam, and then throw him in jail for another 20 years, for being stupid
Now who has a vested interest in making sure this bomb went off?
If it, indeed, was some Islamist nutjob, this should be even more reason to take the fight to them.
Someone explain to me what is honourable about killing your children.
here we see the net “benefits” of allowing immigration from incompatable cultures.
76 virgins do exist in the duodenum paradise..
LOL! That’s a keeper!
