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."

Je Suis Charlie
Couldn’t find one in any picture. Moderate Muslims must be outraged – as I am by their silence.
So our journalistic heroes at the Halifax Herald managed to get the murder of their Parisian colleagues onto page 10. Also, their editorial warned against the dangers of right wing potentially gaining steam from the slayings. So you could say that they did, at least, cover the story. I wonder, though, what did manage to make it to the front page of their paper this morning?

Police officer shot in the head while holding up his hands was a Muslim sent to protect the cartoonists.
But the monkey was wearing a Racists T-Shirt ?
Where is your sense of honor and duty ?
The Herald knows what is best for our troubled minds..

What’d they do? Sing “We shall overcome”? Total waste of time. Drag politicians out of their beds and make them fix this mess. It’ll be 4 or 5 years of war then, assuming a Charles Martel-like persistence, victory.

“I am Charlie” is not enough. They should all proudly and openly display the cartoons and articles that so outraged the representatives of the “religion of peace”.
You’ll notice that they had to resort to English to say “not afraid”.
So where is the strength in diversity today?
Will the French Human “Rights” Commission send in SWAT teams and charge these people for excluding visible “minorities” in their rally?
Not one headscarf, nor afro, no tie-dye T-shirts or rainbow colored flags.
At least they can take comfort in that Obamba is not their president today, with an IRS audit on the horizon.
Canadians need to arm the borders fast – As European’s finally wake up to they’re own Muslim nightmare they’ll be scattering them to North America like a plague of locusts looking for a new feed.
It’s already starting.
Sad to say, I agree with you. This is the same as lighting a candle or leaving a teddy bear for Lady Di.
How many people in that crowd will call or send letters to their politicians about this?

Exatly. The supposed moderates expressing phoney comments are just practicing Tacquia (sp). Any lie to the infidel is acceptable.
Precisely!!
Toronto Star’s front page quoted one of the slain journalists in Paris – “I prefer to die rather than live like a rat” It seemed natural to me to drop a line to the rats:
“On the other hand, others prefer to live like rats!
There are many possible motivations for the slaughter in Paris – at this point only the killers themselves know the truth.
However, it took the Star only two sentences to link the terrorist act to the air strikes against the ‘so called’ Islamist State. Apparently one of the suspects spent time in prison for terrorist activities in 2008. Does one need to presume that he was brilliantly prescient about the current air attacks at that time or, heaven forbid, could he simply be a terrorist?”
I se in many parts of europe the citizens are demanding a end to all imagration from the middle east and those already there should be deported
I’m not Charlie, Charlie is dead at the hands of Islam due to the fear, stupidity and cowardice of the West. Goodbye freedom of speech and all else. Better to live quietly in fear than be killed by troubled Muslims.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2901570/Hunt-Charlie-Hebdo-gunmen-killers-revealed-brothers-trained-Yemen-assassins-links-terror-groups-going-TEN-YEARS-free-roam-Paris.html
‘Two armed suspects wanted over the Charlie Hebdo massacre are being pursued through woodland by anti-terror police in northern France, it has been reported.
The men, believed to be brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi, were been tracked down near Abbaye de Longpont, around 80km north-east of Paris after reportedly robbing a nearby petrol station.
Officers are said to have found a Molotov cocktail bomb and jihadist flag in their car which they abandoned before fleeing into woods on foot.
French anti-terrorism police and helicopters converged on the area after two men matching the description of the brothers raided a garage around 6km away in Villers-Cotterêt.
The station attendant claimed the suspects drove off in a white Renault Clio with covered number plates in the direction of Paris with ‘exposed Kalashnikovs and rocket launchers’ inside the vehicle.
Amid French media reports the men had abandoned their car, Bruno Fortier, the mayor of neighbouring Crepy-en-Valois, said helicopters were circling his town and police and anti-terrorism forces were deploying en masse.
‘It’s an incessant waltz of police cars and trucks,’ he told Reuters, adding that he could not confirm reports the men were holed up in a house in the area.
The dramatic development came as the manhunt continued for the ‘armed and dangerous’ brothers who have links to terror groups stretching back almost a decade.’
So the suspects had terror links going back 10 years but obviously weren’t being monitored that closely…

Yes. YES, Mike.
Again, mere sentimental spectacle. More theatre signifying nothing. Like the Trey Gowdy greatest hits farce.
And Je Suis Charlie is just more impotent hashtagism.
Forget counting headscarves. That’s a foregone conclusion.
Count the Motoon placards, the Hebdo cover placards.
Zero.
when the signs say je suis Charlie Martel…
Gun Control killed Charlie!
Nice catch!
Sadly, I think everyone holding up their pencils and pens not as protest, but to surrender them to the proper authorities.
Our own local radio station had a panel discussing the events in Paris yesterday, and the topic was “Is it time to stop poking the bear.”
Yup, all our fault. I thought blaming the victim was verboten. Regardless, “Hand’s Up, Don’t Shoot” must not be as popular in the Twitter Islamic community.
B I N G O ! (When the signs say Je Suis Charlie Martel).
My highest compliment Celina: that is Kateworthy!
Foucault 7:52,
I thought expecting Muslims to condemn terrorism was racist.

“Is it time to stop poking the bear.”
I like that analogy.
One of the stories in Paul Schullery’s book “The Mark of The Bear” is titled “The Twenty-Fifth Bear”. It was written by Frank Dufresne, who was the director of the Alaska Game Commission, and an expert on Grizzly behaviour.
He theorized that about one bear out of 25 was ready, willing and able to do battle with humans for reasons best known to themselves. Ultimately, there was only one way to deal with them: rife bullets. The difficulty, Dufresne said, was that these bears didn’t wear numbers on their back like football players, so it was impossible to pick them out of a crowd until something terrible happened.
Perhaps this is the way it is with these rabid terrorist dogs. For whatever number of reasons they hate civilization and will try to destroy anything that smacks of civilized society. But unlike the bad bears, we can in fact pick them out of crowds – because in virtually each and every case these pieces of crap have given us ample early notice(s) of their hateful anti-social behaviour.
Its like Where’s Waldo, only they forget to pencil in Waldo.
“..every case these pieces of crap have given us ample early notice(s) of their hateful anti-social behaviour.”
Like the young Muslim painter featured on the front page of the Calgary Papers punching out an old guy? I wonder if he was ever tracked down.
It ain’t paranoia if they really are out ta get ya.
While the turnout for these “demonstrations’ is impressive….much like the massive TEA PARTY rallies…it accomplishes little. Failing to show up AND riot is a weakness.
Note: Paris’ wide boulevards are a product of Napolean’s administration.
With memory of the storming of the Bastille still fresh, Napolean and his administration were paranoid of the mob. The wide boulevards and bridges were to facilitate the rapid deployment of troops.
Of course, as the moderateness of a Muslim goes up, the chances they’re wearing a headscarf happens to go down. True story.
Celina (and Dhimmi) are right. “Je suis Charlie Martel” is perfect.
our candles and stolid looks against thiere machine guns they are beet and don’t have chance
Kate makes an amazingly accurate point with her headline.
Unfortunately, as would be the case, there are none.
The problem is that if you go a few blocks in any direction from the tourist areas of downtown Paris, you’ll not find one person that looks like those in the pictures in any street in those districts.
You may not even realize that you were in France.
Lets hope this is the begging of an awakening in Europe of the peril they are in. Even though their politicians are turncoats.
Like the CBC, the politically correct left wing Liberal newspaper, “The Chronicle Herald” used about every euphemism it could muster to suggest that the Islamic terrorists were “only” individual terrorists acting on their own and that “we” shouldn’t cause problems by suggesting anything else.
Disgraceful.
I agree. Celina has a good one there. But what do we mostly have among our leaders are versions of Vidkun Quisling.
Europeans need to stop being sheep and to start packing heat – all the time.
Note that this incident did not occur in Zurich or Bern…….
Note tthat just days past that Merkel was desperately trying to tamp down anti-islamic protests…..
Meaningless crap. None of these people are in any danger of being killed because none of them will publicly make fun of Mohammed. A meaningful protest would have had thousands of people holding up copies of cartoons mocking the prophet. As Mark Steyn pointed out, if every major newspaper in the western world had printed the original mohammed cartoons, Charlie Hebdo would not have been public enemy number one to the Islamic world, they would have been one of many. The cowardice of the western world killed twelve people in France on Wednesday.
