Oh. Shiny Pony!

Silver spoon wouldn’t know struggle if it bit him.
To quote the Ukraine ambassador, “You have to be extremely careful when you talk about 82 people who died fighting … for their future and everyone’s in danger,” Prystaiko said. “[Trudeau’s] just sitting in a nice room, and talking about things in such a light manner; it’s just inappropriate.”

  1. I think anyone who opposes assisted suicide should be forced to change places with a dying cancer patient for a week.

  2. Instead of proper palliative care for the dying, substitute Phenol, recommended and endorsed by Dr Mengele!
    So the LIEberals want to turn the medical profession into assisted killers…because even though food and water aren’t medical treatment, now starvation and dehydration will effectively be visiting your hospital rooms.
    “At its biennial policy convention in Montreal on the weekend, the Liberal Party of Canada endorsed almost unanimously the de-criminalization of assisted suicide and euthanasia.
    The resolution calls for assisted death to be de-criminalized after a public consultation that would establish rules on accessing and monitoring the process of doctors killing their patients.”
    Sure hang out a sign and vote for the “National Socialist Party”…
    Meanwhile the Belgians are no freaking help either
    http://www.lifesitenews.com/news/liberal-party-of-canada-votes-to-support-legal-euthanasia
    “A study in Belgium demonstrated that 32% of the people killed under the Belgian euthanasia law were killed without request, a breach of a fundamental condition of that law. Not one of these doctors has been prosecuted,” said Schadenberg.
    “Last week Belgium became the first country in the world to approve euthanasia for children who request it with parental consent.”

  3. I would think that Justin being compared more to Hillary Clinton would be a better analogy.
    Both have skeletons in their closets, both use the same products in their hair and both have the same attitude towards most other people on the planet.
    “What difference does it make?” It doesn’t matter what they say, the MSM will always cover their backsides and make the other side look and sound more heartless than either one of them.

  4. Hans: What is proper palliative care when all the pain medications have stopped working, the voice is gone from screaming, the mind is going or gone from pain and the only thing to do is wait months for the inevitable to happen? We don’t allow our pets to go through this so why should we have to?

  5. The moonbat Liberals cry about legalizing assisted suicide all the time, and then they cry about gun control because people will commit suicide with them.
    Can’t be believed or trusted about anything.

  6. Most certainly, one does not adopt National Socialist policy by affixing double SS runes to ones lapel.
    Secondly, family members are not in the same league as your pet.
    You look for a qualified palliative care team, they do exist. What you are describing is ‘supervised neglect’…
    My mother suffered a 3 year slide in abilities due to ‘striato-nigral degeneration’; a rare condition where dopamine production shuts down in the brain and affects all autonomic functions (ie. walking, hand and finger movement, bladder, bowel, breathing, temperature regulation, and eventually heart rate).
    Eventually, the physicians responded by putting her on a dose of ‘neurontin’ which ameliorated her phantom pain condition.
    The initial response of the medical system was to not even bother with a diagnosis, and ignore the problem. I sent off a fax to the PMO, Premier and every ‘interested party’ down the chain of command that ‘supervised neglect’ is not treatment and how about I sue your dumb asses. I then packed up my mother and brought her down to the UBC Health Sciences centre and armed with a stack of 24 faxes which I gave to the head nurse and told her, despite PM Paul Martin’s 35 billion dollar health care transfer cut way back in ’98, we were dealing with my Mom TODAY!
    The correct response is to give the medical system a good God Almighty kick in the ass; until it responds in a civilized manner.
    If you go in armed to the teeth with facts, you will most likely get some decent answers.

    Such is the liberal argument. Find anecdotal stories that tug at the emotional heart strings and then suggest that the anecdote is the norm. Few, very, very few people ever suffer in pain. Blocking medications are so good that almost no one is condemned to suffer in pain. This is not to say that it never happens but it is uncommon.
    Meanwhile, once we devalue life through ‘euthanasia’ we follow the inevitable path of those who have gone before. A search of the experience in Holland and Belgium will demonstrate beyond question that the rationale for ending life will become ever more elastic. Multiply that by the fiscal pressure government will be under as the massive bulge of baby boomers (me) begin to burden the health care system. ‘Priorities’ will become the watch-word and the issue of ‘scarce health care dollars’ will be used to justify active euthanasia.
    Can you say ‘death panels’? I know you can.

  8. Hans: I am as far from a liberal as you are and I think we would agree on 99% of issues but not on this one. The slippery slope argument does not help your case and the fact it is “few,very, very few” is not much consolation if you are one of those. It should not become common or easy to access this last resort treatment but as someone who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, I know what the future holds for me. I will be one of those few.

  9. Hard cases always make bad law…
    “It should not become common or easy to access this last resort treatment but as someone who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness,”
    Death is never a pleasant prospect, but the medical community have plenty of tools at their disposal to ameliorate pain; somewhat short of actively ‘offing’ you.
    Given the past and PRESENT abuse of medical staff; I sure as hell wouldn’t be travelling down the open euthanasia path as it invariably leads to the rubbish currently going on in the Netherlands and Belgium.
    I will reiterate you need a better palliative care team, and you can make your reconciliation with your maker on your own terms without dragging the rest of us down a very old path.
    If you are making the argument that we have to do better than the Spartans of old who would abandon their ‘defectives’ to the elements then I have your back. If you are seeking participatory death enablers, then we part company for very good and sound reasons.

  10. Yes, unlike Harper’s vast experience in the workforce: Imperial Oil mailroom and politics. Yep, true salt of the earth.

  11. Getting back on topic, this is something of a mountain out of a molehill with regards to the little crack from Kim Justin-il. If it’s a slap at anybody that would be Russia, but I think it really was just a joke and not at all indicative of anything serious that might metamorphose into policy positions.

  12. “I think it really was just a joke and not at all indicative of anything serious that might metamorphose into policy positions.”
    You’re right, but not in the way you think.
    Yes, Pony was just making a joke. But that’s not a “get out of jail free” card in this case. Trudeau is so popular, and it’s so gone to his head, that he no longer thinks he even has to pretend to think about issues any more. He can just say whatever flighty thing pops into his head at any given moment, laugh it off, and maybe if really pushed, make an apology about it later. It’s a real reflection of just how deeply Trudeau thinks about anything – i.e. not one bit. He doesn’t take his position as a party and opposition leader seriously because he doesn’t have to. He’s popular despite whatever foolish thing he says because his followers and his party are equally as foolish.
    This is what passes for democracy in the 21st century. Pop-culture popularity trumps actual political and intellectual capability in terms of winning elections. Woe be on us all if we elect this dilettante to the position of Prime Minister.

  13. How many more gaffes before people realize he’s beyond an embarrassment, he’s an empty suit with a name tag his party hopes will get him to the top seat. If by some fluke, voter stupidity, whatever we’ll then have an empty suit draped over an empty chair.
    It won’t be a joke at that point, we’ll have no idea who is behind the curtain running the country.

  14. Indiana;
    I like your idea of finding an American to equate with Justin. Bush, though, was a winner. Justin is more whiner than winner. He is more like Al Gore, as shill for his own cause, but not a winner. A self thought ladies man who may resent having to pay for the women’s attention when he gets older. Surely, their are some serial losers out there that would be a better comparison. You know, Jimmy Carter, second term. He’s more Al Gore than Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter was sincere.

  15. Liz J said: “How many more gaffes before people realize he’s beyond an embarrassment…”
    I keep asking that question too. What’s it going to take?
    The answer is you look at Ukraine and Venezuela. What did it take there? Federal officials shooting people in the streets, on TV. Massive, massive riots. General chaos. Banks and government agencies flat-out stealing people’s money with no excuse and no pretense.
    That Ukrainian government still has its supporters, too. The Venezuelan tyrant still has supporters. These are mostly, I hope, people who benefit economically from the regime. Or think they do.
    There are an awful lot of people in Canada who benefit directly and considerably from income they get due to the Liberals. Think of every government employee who works in some doofus Ministry of Paperclips substructure. The -entire- CBC. The -entire- education system. The -entire- welfare system, everybody who works in it plus everybody who gets money from it.
    There’s a million people right there I bet who will never, ever admit that Justine is a spoiled rich kid with no talent and no clue who got picked for his daddy’s name.
    I conclude that I do not want to see what it will take to wake those jerks up. It’ll take jet planes strafing University Avenue in Toronto with cannon fire. It’ll take the end of the world as we know it.

  16. Dear Mrtisaduffer;
    We come into the world in pain and we leave in pain.
    The pain of birth leads to so much joy that I trust the pain of death will as well. Naive, yes, but I prefer to believe an ideal that my maker has a joyful plan for me.
    I can’t endorse an early end in any circumstance. To me it’s a false assumption that we’d be happier without the pain, if the pain is inevitable.
    I know many see my belief as naive but it brings me happiness.

  17. I should have also mentioned that as well as being off message there is something else that bodes well from this event.
    When his dad was around he would also make similar statements, but his statements where very different according to what language he was speaking. He would spout some socialist clap trap in french while speaking to a Quebec audience, and being all ears they would lap it up with the english CBC reporter in tow gleefully reporting the overwhelming positive reception PET recieved in la belle province. Jr no doubt felt that he too would not be found out making the same kind of remark on french tv. Unfortunately there are enough people paying attention that a.) have access to the internet b.)speak both languages fluently c.)happen to be journalists and d.) know a low hanging fruit story when they see it.
    Each time the pony has a bimbo erruption is because he thought he was in the presence of a friendly audience without any hostile media around. This was true when he made his comment about Quebec PM’s being better than the rest, and Quebec should run Canada. It was true when he made this quip about admiring communist dictatorship, and it was true this time when he “joked” about Ukriane.
    My suggestion to any of the partisan conservatives wishing to get more grist for the mill, is to snag an invite to one of his meet and greets and have a video recorder handy for the moment Justin decides to be funny.
    Trust me, like Paul, Stephane, and Iggy, Justin has become the conservatives best new friend.
    Liberals, it sucks to be them.
