  1. Gives you that Middle Ages feeling.
    BO is the socialists trade mark. OWS was famous for it.
    So are the homeless.
    Which the NDP not only adore, but wants an increase of by their policies.

  2. Smell ya later.
    Love the pyramid scheme theme of the poster graphics
    I get the slavery aspect of the monuments to overlords, Pink Floyd The Wall and
    “Pyramid scheme
    Web definitions
    a fraudulent scheme in which people are recruited to make payments to the person who recruited them while expecting to receive payments from the persons they recruit; when the number of new recruits fails to sustain the hierarchical payment structure the scheme collapses with most of the ….”

  3. The mother of a friend of mine once told me that she could never vote for Ed Broadbent because she could tell by his facial expressions that his feet stunk, and that he never washed his socks.
    I don’t know about that, but I do know that there’s no such thing as a scent-free NDP convention.

  4. Not liking the cloying stench of artificial scents has nothing to do with political polarization, it’s simply chemical allergies.

  5. Scent free?
    Ever smelled a lefty who refuses to use deodorant?
    Oh, there’ll be scents there.
    Count on it.

  6. This is simply another fad to convey the fact that the sponsor of the event is to be considered “progressive”. School boards consider themselves clever by designating schools as “peanut free” and “idle free” zones.
    “Smoke free” used to be the slogan du jour but, since almost everywhere is now off limits to smokers, the phrase is redundant. Perfume has replaced tobacco smoke as the villain and is now the cause of all things allergenic.

  7. If you want to run a proper nanny state you have to stay in practice. So, you get to the meeting and suddenly realize you used janitor in a drum on your under arms as usual, after your weekly shower. The quandary must have been very traumatic for those that sat through the meeting with their arms at their side and just praying there wouldn’t be a show of hands for policy approval. What if they had a sniff test at the door ? Would you be turned away ? What if on the next meeting the busybodies forget to put the sign out and you had decided to remain smelling like a cow paddy rather than take a chance on soap ? So many decisions and one can just sense the priorities in NDP thinking.

  9. Thanks for the info, will be keeping my atomiser of CK Obsession beside the front door during the next election campaign for when the orangies come knocking.

  10. I had to cover an NDP election night event during the Layton era here in Toronto, and I can say honestly that it wasn’t a scent free event. (shudders) I was at two other party events that day, and the NDP event sticks in my mind for the overwhelming smell of unwashed, undeodorized hippie, and that’s not hyperbole or exaggeration.

  11. Talking of Tom Mulcair, along with CTV, it seems that the Prime Minister himself is vaguely being “involved”. with Rob Ford here.
    According to them a friendship between the two men, thus may define the Prime Minister. Other things smell worse than stinky feet.

  12. The first thought I had was, “It can’t be scent-free because socialism stinks”, but about fifteen people beat me to it.

  13. This “scent free” obsession appears to be a unique BC perversion. The local hospital has “scent free zone” signs and, invariably as one walks onto the ward, ones olfactory organs are assaulted with a veritable symphony of intestinal pathology where the experienced nose can tease out the subtle strains of fat malabsorption from C. difficile and the overwhelming theme of gomers with simple fecal incontinence. Clearly the wearing of aftershave would spoil the ambiance of this olfactory offering that makes a farmyard seem quite bland in comparison.
    Given that the “scent free zone” signs are in close proximity to the nurses station, I haven’t had a long enough unobserved period to write “no farting” on the signs. Probably for the best as, given the deterioration of my handwriting with every year I practice medicine, likely my scrawl would be misread as something entirely different serving as a Rorschach of the readers most politically incorrect thoughts. There’s potential for an enterprising individual to capture the scent of a hospital “scent free zone” and release it at a gathering of socialists.

    Actually the Nova Scotia NDP (now out of power, hurrah) got into this one in a big way. They had some kind of “task force” rubbing their chins thinking what to do about it and they may even have passed some kind of legislation.

  15. There’s an old country song ” she don’t wear no perfume at all but you can smell her just the same” would apply here.d

  16. I agree with most of what is up on this site. I can understand the No Scent zone in hospitals. I have strong allergy to a chemical found in most perfumes and aftershaves. I literally cannot breathe and start to wheeze, my sinuses plug leaving me with the feeling of the worse head cold you can imagine; my ears close and throat gets raw. When I was pregnant with our daughter I was in hospital for a week before and after giving birth. We had already lost 4 babies. When she was born there was nothing more than I wanted to do than hold and cuddle her. The nurse that was on the floor wore STRONG perfume that clung to everything that she touch including my daughter. Leaving me wheezing and unable to take meds for the allergy. It broke my heart. I had told the hospital repeatedly the problem. Nothing was done. For some of us this is a major problem. I can see it in hospitals where I cannot do anything to counteract the effects. Otherwise it is up to me to come prepared.

  17. Yeah well, I recall gettin’ a dozzy of a headache from dallying too long in a jeans section of a department store.
    It’s the chemical, they call “sizing”, that reeks so bad.

  18. Come on folks, what you’re missing here, is the smell of good hard work as the never-give-it-a-rest-crowd beaver away on their ‘real policy for real Canadians’ handouts.

  19. But on a positive note, when the power goes out these people will be the first to die. Talk about first world “problems”.

  20. It’s possible this event was an NDP Hippy revival/love-in and any scent would interfere with their natural pheromones.
