Suzuki's Funding

What a fraudulent little "maggot" this man is. He described people as maggots and parasites in his hippie (Manson like) rants in the 70's, thanks to Vivian for exposing the REAL maggot and parasite. Move on David, just go away and enjoy your ill gotten gains, working people of Canada have to pay taxes in a week so that the CBC can once again have enough money to make another hero out of a zero, like they have you.

She really handled that well. As expected, the enviro was softballed, and Vivian was thrown some sneaky ones. She saw rigt through it. Good listen.

Did the CBC interviewer disclose before the interview started that George Strombolopoulous sits on the Suzuki Foundation Board of Directors? Probably not.

This is getting funnier by the minute, I think the zuki is gonna blow a nut any time now... I'm particularly waiting for him to do a public meltdown on camera.. that one I'll save for eternity... Vivian has done a magnificent job at outing the little prick..

It was interesting how the CBC interviewer soft-balled Suzuki and the Greenpeace twit while trying to trip up Vivian and deflecting the interview toward Exxon et al oil companies.

The Suzuki Foundation needs to be fined by Revenue Canada for misuse of charitable donations.

"Brent spoke with Tzeporah Berman, a Canadian eco-activist."

Click on this link also and you will find in her biograpy where she took on Victoria Secret to stop them from using old growth forest so wind storms can knock them down later.

It does not say if she was wearing a micro Bikini but she did have a chain saw. Hows that for a visual.

Vivian Krauss is becoming Old Wierd Beards worst nightmare come true. You have heard there is nothing worse then a women scorned. I think Dave would say there is nothing worse then a women scorned with tax records.

Go Vivian.

Why did this take decades to be exposed? Ya no need for Sun news, there reporting is definitely redundant!!!

Morons.

That wasn\t an interview that was a partisan ambush. My read on it is the CBC wants to discredit Vivian and they picked a little listened to venue to roll out their arguments to see if anything sticks to her - probing for a weakness like snarling hyenas.

Vivian handled it well as true and figures are indisputable. I suspect they will turn to personal innuendo to disredit her in futire broadcasts on the issue - after all the CBC has their credibility directly linked to the Fruit Fly con artist.

Brent Bamburry nearly crapped himself trying to crossthread Vivian...and she never blinked once. Also, as I understand it, Dr. Fruitfly was supposed to be on the show. Hell, he even stepped down from his beloved foundation so he could speak out freely but it seems he knows when to take cover.

Should never have told Vivian to f#ck off that time eh Dave?

I will never get tired of CBC celebs getting their vacuous blocks knocked off by a righteous lady armed with facts. Never.

Isn't it ironic? David Suzuki may be in the pockets of big American Oil interests.

CBC poll at the Sun that has some pretty funny results.

"Isn't it ironic? David Suzuki may be in the pockets of big American Oil interests."

Most liberal activist charities are in the pockets of large American foundations. You don't think we actually have a level political playing field do you?

VIVIAN KRAUSE ROCKS THE NATION!!!

Fair Questions is now on my daily read list. Go Viv!

Oh, and Brent Bambury is a typical CBC w@nker.

Heh, two things.
The link's dead already. Guess CBC didn't want any more people listening to that than they absolutley had to.
And second, I love the "no comments". Looks like the Greens aren't wanting to put any damning statements on record.

In answer to your: Why did this take decades to be exposed?

That's because the CRA "didn't get it done." So, why didn't they? Nobody is holding them back from taking matters into their own hands and applying tax law, or notifying the Minister of potential cases of non compliance re "charities" that obviously bend the rules, especially when the signatories to Kyoto were in power.

What union does CRA belong to? PSAC. Who recently was the head of PSAC? Nichol Turmel of NDP fame. The NDP are on record as being "unfriendly" to the carbon industries in this country. Is PSAC "donating" to the NDP? Well audit them and find out. You think that will happen?

As far as public sector unions go, they're all in on supporting "green charities" and supporting the demise of the Canadian oil and gas industry.

Because of the ties to CBC through Suzuki via George Strombo, how much of taxpayer's money paid to maintain the CBC is funneled into the Suzuki Foundation and what kind of "balanced" discussion on the AGW fraud are CBC viewers getting with those kinds of connections?

Vivian got most of her info from US tax law reporting requirements for charities, not Canadian reporting requirements.

cgh,

the link works fine for me. You have to:
1 - click the Listen icon on the right side of link
2 - click ther upper listen icon on the popup
3 - click the lower listen icon on the popup

(in that order)

Its counter intuitive to navigate, like most govt websites.

The environmental groups are 'convinced' that their supporters will step up to provide them with money for their new, non-charity organizations. I strongly doubt it - one of the things that I have observed is that the progressive left are huge tight wads when they don't get something back directly (as in a charitable receipt).

Maureen,

I know some public servants (forced progressives). They are all cheap a**es. Get all worked up about whether their contract gives a 1.15% vs a 1.18% increase in salary. Spend hours discussing it, when the same time spent working OT would give them more in the end.

What you say is dead on.

Up with Krause, down the CBC!

I don't believe in my lifetime, and I've got many years still to live, that I will *ever* see the CBC give a fair interview. They are simply incapable of it.

The CBC should be flushed down the toilet.

Environmentalism became the home of the hard Left once communism was discredited even by the Russians. If you look closely at their agenda, it is the same. While the majority of people favour and try to protect the environment, the real one, this has nothing in common with what is now called environmentalism.

Most liberal activist charities are in the pockets of large American foundations. You don't think we actually have a level political playing field do you?

This is good. Shows them what their word really means. How they are undermining Canadian interests for foreign interests. Collaborators against Canadians for money, to enrich themselves. Shows the shallowness of the Religion of green politics, ideology, for greenbacks..

Bambury....the quasi game show host?

Either he was hoping to head hunt so he could get a promotion or the Tall Forheads sent out some recce to see if they could smoke out something worthwhile.

Suzuki, he would never show up with her. He would be insane to do that.

Save the interview with Strombo after they have staked positions and done research. Whether Strombo would have the cohones to declare his conflict before the interview even started is another matter all together.

Interesting question for George, did he do all the due diligence he should have done as a board member if there it turns out there was incorrect activity going on....yes George you better ask whether the Officers and Directors Insurance is paid up and what it covers.

Suzuki says he's "free at last".

Well, I'll be. And all along, I thought that "Dr." (of nothing related to the enviroment) David was "free" to reach into my wallet due to HIS charitable status.

Hmmm...

I smell a decline in funding coming, David.

And stay out of my wallet!

As usual David Suzuki chose not to exercise his right to free speech by declining to be interviewed.

Gary Marshall

Busted.

Brent 's a dope.
"It's on your blog (which I won't mention) so that proves Suzuki's been honest about it all along,"

Duh!

Let's reduce CBC funding a million dollars for every transnational progressive agitprop POS interview like this.

Wow, am I ever impressed with Vivian Krause. Not only does she have ALL the information at her fingertips but she is also well spoken, articulate AND quick thinking.

Waiting for the CBC cuts to hit inane Bambury. Trying to lighten up political discussions.

Also heard pompous Enright on the Wildrose this AM. More alienation.

Daffy Dave "..was unable to accommodate our request".

Oh boy, shine a bit of daylight on the parasites, and watch them scatter!

The reason that these groups are now splitting upso they can advocate 'frreely' seems obvious to me. They were breaking the law before,they knew it,and now that they are coming under scrutiny,they are avoiding potential bad press.

I don't believe for a second that all 3 suddenly decided that they would up their political 'advocacy' coincidentally at the same time the laws are finally being enforced.

A comparison would be like a quack doctor operating without a license,and then upon hearing that he may face prosecution, decides that it is time to get a license. Hell no,they will be doing the same as always,they are just covering their butts now.

Dr Fruit Fly already announced his resignation from the foundation last fall to campaign with his buddy McGuinty in the Ont election. How many times can one resign from the same position?

As for attempts to shut his free speech down, Fruit Fly has had over 25 years of a free soapbox status on state funded CBC to get his message out. With or without FF the DSF is an enviro-political movement, not a charity.

There's another side to this story that nobody is touching: the millions upon millions of tax-payer dollars shovelled into these eco-parasites via municipal, provincial and federal grant monies.

Good comment eco-parasites.. can't word it any better... this would emphasize that zuki is a full blown lamprey..

Come to think about it, Vivian has spanked Davey so many times, if she ever has to debate him publicly, she'll have to wear black latex. I think he's getting to like it...

Fruit Fly does not debate anyone, much too ill tempered for that. What he does is harangue captive audiences like school children, or broadcast via his CBC pulpit.

Vivian Krause is too good—as in bad—for the CBC.

In future, I bet they'll avoid interviewing her: typical modus operandi for the Canadian Best-Buy/Propaganda Corporation. Too bad.

hornytoad: "Wow, am I ever impressed with Vivian Krause. Not only does she have ALL the information at her fingertips but she is also well spoken, articulate AND quick thinking."

I couldn't agree with you more, ht, but just wait: Vivian Krause will probably never be given an opportunity by the CBC to voice her views again.

This happens regularly with the CBC: If someone's ideas are counter to their "progressive" views but are "well spoken, articulate AND quick thinking," they'll make sure they make a good showing only once.

I 'love' how the CPC government's simply attempting to enforce Revenue Canada's rules for obtaining and maintaining charitable status results in Tzeporah Berman's accusing them of "attacking" 'environmental' groups who use their "charitable" status to forward their activist political agendas.

I also love, no sarcasm intended, that the eco-activist fascists are being exposed. 'About time.

This Brent Bambury is a total CBC a**hole. He tried everything he could to shill for Suzuki et al. to no avail. 'Love the smile in his voice as he signed off with Ms. Krause, while turning the knife in her back.

Let's see when Vivian Krause is "allowed" to be heard again on the CBC. She was entirely too effective.

Another Canadian who CBC is totally deaf to is Ross McKitrick. Saw him on TVO the Agenda and he is a great commentator. He would totally destroy Dr Fruit Fly were they ever to debate climate change science.

Wow, am I ever impressed with Vivian Krause. Not only does she have ALL the information at her fingertips but she is also well spoken, articulate AND quick thinking.

Ditto.

"Isn't it ironic? David Suzuki may be in the pockets of big American Oil interests."

There is a LOT of this going on. Once you clue in to it, it's perfectly understandable why activists are always accusing their critics of being in the pay of Big Oil, Big Coal, Big Soap or whatever. They are projecting their own anxiety about being surreptitiously funded. And don't forget that businesses are often willing to use underhanded methods to curb competition. The oil producers of District A don't care about the viability of the oil producers in District B. In fact, they regard them as competitors driving down profits -- and they feel the same about producers of natural gas and coal from wherever. And then there's the fact that the payoff from buying politicians can way exceed the cost ... but maybe that's a subject for another thread.

A very, very long time ago, my Grade 13 class had a field trip to some enviro-seminar thing where Dr. Suzuki was speaking. At the end he had a question and answer session and one of the girls who'd lined up asked him to repeat the contact information for his foundation.

He just about tore her a new one. Told her to get the information from somebody else and not to waste his time asking repeat questions because he was already late for another engagement.

At school the next day, the teacher asked what we'd learned from the seminar. The first response she got was "I learned Dr. Suzuki gets very crabby when he's running late."

I doubt anybody remembers what he said that day - I don't, maybe something about the rainforests - but everyone remembers that he was publicly verbally abusive to a sixteen year old girl.

My thought for the day:

Western Canada, this is the weather Suzuki is trying to banish.

Eastern Canada, this is the weather Suzuki wants to see more often.

What a warped sense of priorities. :)
