About Kate
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."

Great speech! So proud of PM Harper!
Just curious: When was that? I thought he received the award a few weeks ago...why are we just seeing this now?
Wow. I am so proud to be Canadian. When I look at how Prime Minister Harper has evolved, I wonder: is this a new American Churchill? My God, this man has encapsulated modern, conservative foreign policy better than anyone since Mulroney or Reagan.
I feel SO confident that adults now lead our country.
God bless Canada.
This makes all the door knocking and donations worth while. PMSH is saying what he knows to be true and not mincing words in an effort to not offend the radical left in Canada.
The power of the speech comes not from the Prime Minister's oration of the words but rather from the meaning of the words themselves. In a word where simple meaningless words like "Hope" and "Change" bring people to tears, it is good to hear a politician speak from his heart.
The appeal of conscience foundation award.
""A crime committed in the name of religion is the greatest crime against religion,” is the organization’s mantra. Following the act of September 11th, the ACF has rallied religious leaders worldwide to take a stand against terrorism and to use their influence to halt violence and promote tolerance."

Fail all around judging by the results.
Off hand I'd say this is just a feel good junket and a free vacation, with promises of more aid money for this or that cause. Sarkozy and Gordon Brown won the same thing.
Was this story broadcast on CBC??
ok/so/whatever
Go home to your third world hellhole if you don't like our leader and society. Please, feel free to go crawl under your racist rock.
i, let me say this:
Take a lot of Ex-lax and buy a supply of toilet paper and go away....
i, Harper will resign the day after you learn to spell.
ok,
You have malevolence deep in your heart. It's a sickness. I am sad for you and I am angry at the people who put it there. The people you call "friend" have deceived you. Only someone who hates you can make you think as you do.
If you wish to make something of yourself and do some good in the world, you need to find some new friends. If you live in Canada, you live in a beautiful country. Don't spoil it. Please don't poison it's wells as your friends have poisoned others.

Gawd...I don't think that I have ever been more proud to be a Canadian. What a great speech from a truly great statesman.
And ok or whatever else your name of choice is, have you not recognized by now that you are tolerated and ignored, because of the fact that you are so insignificant that few of us are willing to address you given that you are not only illiterate, but irrelevant?
Look into yourself...recognize that you are an idiot, and perhaps go away...
PMSH is deserving of the accolates he receives;
cheers;
Meanwhile, Arafat and Obama got participation trophies from the Nobel committee. Hats off to PMSH, who actually did something worthy of rcognition.
Like ok, I need spelling lessons.
i and ok, I have a question for both of you. When will any muslim country formally accept the Universal Declaration of Human Rights which was written at the UN in the late 1940s? The UHDR states that men and women are equal and that all religions are allowed.
By the way, if you don't like it here you might as well leave. We're not changing our ways for jerks like you.
OK
Consider yourself lucky I'm not running Canada or you and the rest of you muzzie savages would be on a boat back to your shithole countries.
Y'all really gonna feed the troll, instead of discussing this very good speech.
Cripes, if Chretien ever made a speech like that, kids would be studying in school for generations to come.
Thank you Mr. Harper. Your slow road to individual rights is really quite an achievement.
Probably the speech that best describes my feelings I have ever heard. Should be shown and discussed in every school at every level in Canada.
The only reason the NDPQ, CBC [Constantly Bashing Conservatives/Christians] and LIEberals do not attack this honor is that they do not want Canadians to see how the Cons are doing on the international picture.
Normally I scroll by ok, i, etc and never bother to read the posts. Today I actually looked at the words and there's something strange.
Many words, and these are difficult ones, are spelled correctly. Even the grammar, in its linear format, is correct; it's just the tenses that are incorrect and various adverbs are substituted. But, the format is correct.
So why is this person pretending to be illiterate?
ET
The was my observation a few posts ago and I agree with you. OK, I or whatever the easy acronym... is a fake. These posts have a purposedesigned to be this way to provoke a certain response by appearing to be an illiterate. Love to see the URL.
I may not be 100% on board with the CPC and its policy directions, but Harper is an excellent PM and statesman. Glad he's ours. He puts Obama to shame.
ET said: "So why is this person pretending to be illiterate?"
Because she's a university educated Toronto liberal trolling for white racists, obviously. Probably has a job at the frickin' school board.
Funny that despite all this time spent she's got nothing to show for it. White racists are scarcer than unicorns in this country.
Over the years that new/ok/i have posted at SDA I've wavered between ok et al being a real person or a figment of some restaurant critic's imagination...
I haven't paid the oktroll much time, but I have met people who write like that. Semi coherent, words spelled correctly, complete nonsense blather.
I've met people who know how to write words, but cannot communicate an idea.
All we can really do is place bets.
Hate to say 'I told you so' but I made the same observation about new etc. about 2 yrs ago, after he/she/it began posting.
Doesn't take a genius like ET to spot a PHONY.
Leave the brain behind those posts to die a slow death due to lack of oxygen.
That was marvellous speech and we can be justly proud of PM Harper. How many emails does he receive telling him that, I wonder.
Watching it I hope someday Sun News will show it in a split screen when Justin begins his speechifying.
Harper, Canada's greatest Prime Minister!
Congratulations PM Harper. That was a great speech, and thank you Canada for giving Stephen Harper a chance to prove himself.
He may not do what all of us want at any given time, and he has varied colours of blue in the party hierarchy to deal with, but he has proved beyond doubt that he is doing his best to move Canada back from the brink of the Marxist hellhole it was sliding into.
Ignore the retard troll. Come to think of it, I thought "it" was going to be cut off, as "it" is trying to take over every thread.
Lets bomb them eh? Can't wait to get the show on the road and kill us some of them Persians. After we done kill us a whole lots of em we can import to them some of our more refined culture like they's can all sit in front of the telly and watch Honey Boo Boo. And when's their little girls goes to the school we can have some of those special classes to teach them the finer arts of f--st f--king. Oooo yea. And they can all becomes just like us Amercans with an average 44in waist. So lets get it on because Scofield tinkered with the King James bible and the bomb drawer sais we must.
It would seem the troll has a new voice! Hi Shawn, or should I say so/ok/new/I?
Progressive Islamic western moderate muslim, meet Prime Minister of Canada, Steven Harper.
If ok really is an example of a progressive Islamic western moderate muslim chick you don't have to wonder long why their men volunteer to blow themselves up and won't allow any of the other ok's to leave the house, talk to other men, wear anything other then a bag, drive a car, get a job or go to school.
If she's not,... Then she's a typical leftard gubment clock watcher parasite in blackface.
Go Prime Minister Steve!
Classic Dr. Ron Paul = Classic Prime Minister Stephen Harper; my admiration and respect for both of these Patriots grows daily.
PMSH lives by the words he wrote; he walks his talk; no teleprompter needed. Only liars need telepropters.
We can count our blessings here in Canada to have such a intellectual giant as our Prime Minister to guide our nation in these dire times.
I hope that Mitt R. was taking notes; he could help himself by learning something about not infringing on the civil liberties/rights of citizens by following the Constitution. He could stop rattling the drums of war and speak of more rational forms of dealing with those we do not agree with (as PMSH outlined in his speech). Mitt could maybe get Ron Paul to help him write a speech or he could just take some talking points from the Prime Minister of Canada.
Thank-you Prime Minister, Stephen Harper. You make all Canadian Patriots proud. This speech covered all the bases that we Patriots hold to be true and right; you delivered it to the world with the ease and conviction of a true Patriot and Statesman.
Thank God this country has Steven Harper as our Prime Minister,after the garbage that ran this country for the past 12 years it seemed like Canada was doomed to liberal/marxism forever.Almost single handedly Steven harper turned this Country around and put it back on the right track.Hopefully that Canadian equivillant of Barack Obama 'Justin Turdeau" will never have the opportunity to inflict himself on this Country.
He has to go outside Canada to get an Award
