  1. Crazy Lizzie got worked up over the word fart? Too bad she’s never been at a Starbucks that’s suffered a Dano cropdustin’. It’d be a fart in the room she’d never ignore. Love gassin me some Starbucks hippies with those early morning Coors light farts.

  3. F-word. The old C-word worries about nothing. I think fart has ceased being profane, if it really ever was.

  7. Elizabeth May speech:
    “Omar Khadr, you’ve got more class than the whole fEcking cabinet,” before being escorted off the stage by Transport Minister Lisa Raitt. Early in her speech she also questioned why no-one else had mentioned the event was being held on First Nations territory, asking “What the fEck is wrong with the rest of you?”
    And May has a problem with the word fart?
    May has been a vegan since childhood. Vegans fart a lot, it’s all the carbs that make all of the gas.
    This may be why May is so sensitive to the word.
    She was probably excluded a lot as a child for being the smelly one who never got chosen to join any peer group.

  10. Larry Dickman >
    “I think Elizabeth May is mentally retarded.”
    That given is the least of her psychotic mentally ill list of problems.

  11. Let’s look at the rules of the House.
    http://ipolitics.ca/2011/12/14/the-106-things-you-cant-say-in-parliament/
    What all of them have in common are the deadly seven (kudos George Carlin) or disparaging adjectives or nouns directed at another member of the house. May has no valid complaint, as the remark was not directed to her, i.e. “You’re a silly fart” (which may be true, but you can’t say it in the House).
    May of course wanted this debate dragged into a kindergarten sandbox, because as Rempel rightly noted May has been opposed vigorously to Alberta’s economic activity for her entire time as an MP.

  12. Can I call Kathleen Wynne “a horse faced old rug muncher” In parliament of couse.

  13. Have you forgotten that the highest plank in the Green Party’s platform is banning cow flatulence? First the word, then the act – it’s 1984 all over again.

  14. It shall not be mentioned in the same sentence, “cow-anything” and the human “fairer” gender.
    Very dark…

  15. It is clear that the concept of Free Speech is not practiced in Parliament.
    Small wonder that these pols cannot conceive of the rest of us being allowed to practice it.

  16. And Pierre Trudeau said “fuddle duddle” in the House that day many years ago, didn’t he?

  17. Most Canadians hold their noses when Miss Methane rises in the house.
    Do we still need Court Jesters.

  18. By the way, how would Hansard record Rempel’s remark? Over the years, I’ve sometimes taken a look at the transcripts of various proceedings and I’ve often seen things like:
    Some member: Shame!
    Some member: Oh-oh!
    There are a lot of “shame”s and “oh-oh”s being said in the House, for some reason.

  20. It seems that Zoolander calling Kent a POS has been edited out,(probably by YouTube) while the vid still claims to be ‘raw’.

  25. Ms May’s hit parade:
    The group Kansas brought us “Dust in the Wind”
    Ms May’s Green Party offers “Flatulence in the Wind”
    Cheers
    Hans Rupprecht, Commander in Chief
    1st Saint Nicolaas Army
    Army Group ‘True North’

  26. What a bloody embarrassment Elizabeth May is to B.C.,at least the Saanich Gulf Islands area,whose well pensioned former,and current civil servants imagine she is an impressive PM because she favors windmills and totalitarianism.
    In the rest of the Province,we cringe whenever she opens her big mouth and exposes her insanity.
    If only her parents had stayed in the USA, Liz could have worked actively on Hillary’s failed campaign,after she worked on Bernie’s failed campaign.
    btw, anyone notice how May and Rempel are total opposites physically? A nine versus a minus 10, or is that male chauvinist swinery ?

  31. Right on Don Morris.
    I grew up in Victoria. Mz May’s riding used to be a beautiful rural riding. Now it has been largely destroyed (along with most of southern VI) by suburban development. My old fishing holes in the Saanich Highlands behind Durrance Lake? Gone. The beautiful view as you were sailing on Brentwood Bay of pastures, forests, a small village and the sharp inclines of the Malahat? Gone too. Mz. May’s riding represents the worst of Canada. Consisting of well-heeled (at our expense) retirees and government workers. They consistently vote left. Perhaps it is out of guilt who knows. All I know is that without us wealth creating canadians funding their splendid golden years, they would have to move into one of the lovely highrises available to less well of pensioners within the city. Or she could move to rural Ontario and make the fun choice on whether to keep the heat on or buy groceries.
    If May had the courage of her convictions, she would run in a riding such as that represented by Ms. Rempel. Then she could see how the other half lives and votes.
    Sorry for the rant but as Sebastian Maniscalco would say, ‘what is wrong with these people?’

  36. Etiquette suggests that if someone ‘breaks wind,’ the correct response is to ignore it and carry on.
    Honestly, if I were a Green, I’d be terribly dismayed that my leader took oh-so-precious-time during Parliamentary debate to bring something so arcane to the fore. On the upside, at least she wasn’t reading from a prepared text.

  37. Isn’t there a wayward tree somewhere that needs chewing??? That would be a better use of her ‘gifts’.

  38. Too bad Ms May is offended. I can understand she’d be against farting for the pollution it would cause, being Green and all that, but just saying the word seems a bit over the top.

  39. I don’t want to down play the importance of “Fartgate” or the consequences that follow such a “scandalous affair”, but isn’t Lizzy Mao the same Lizzy Mao that defended the retarded guy that play acts as Prime Minister when he assaulted a female member of the House and then yelled “get the f##k outta my way”? So Mao is okay with “get the f##k outta my way” but is upset over the word “fart”… Mao should be rewarded for her uselessness and have Justine come over and fart right in her face, she’d love that… perhaps he could punch her on the tit while he’s at it. Could this be a case for the “Human rights Tribunal”…? or maybe Beverly MacLauchlan wants to invent a “constitutional right” to not hear the word, fart… call it the “you can’t say fart law”… Trudopia sure is dumb… oh well, smell ya later.

  40. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Fart Proudly”, and I do. What a sterile environment without speech emanating from one orifice to match the level of discourse from other’s mouths.
    Is it me or does the image of Lizzy make a good case for the full Islamic body-bag?

  41. Elizabeth May does not have any redeeming qualities. Not one. In addition to being butt ugly, which is beyond her control other than purchasing and using a hair brush daily, she is a perfect example of ignorance, obnoxiousness, poor taste, insanity and buffoonery all wrapped up in one hideous package. What kind of people vote for such a person?

  43. Sandra Jensen ran under progressive banner to get on the gravy train. The person was nothing remotely conservative, absolute zero on that part.
    Now that she qualifies for the magnificent retirement package, it really does not matter any more. She got it.
    That she will not get reelected matters not. She gets the cold hard cash.
    And that is what counts.
    All the rest is peripheral

  44. May probably would have reacted differently if she were leader of The Brown Party.

  48. Everyone has memories of an old uncle who drank too much, told ”fart” jokes, and got in trouble with the law from time to time. Mine was uncle Tony, who married my aunt. Tony was the son of Polish homesteaders, and was raised North of Yorkton, Sk.
    He moved to Winnipeg, where my aunt owned a small convenience store and Tony drove a cab. His favorite joke was about an elderly lady who got into his cab Eaton’s downtown, and had to go all the way to the west end of Portage Ave near Headingly. It was a cold rainy evening. About halfway home, she ripped a wet one that immediately filled the heater and the cab with that all familiar odor. She says to my uncle, ”I’m so sorry, I hope you’re not offended, but I just couldn’t hold it any longer.” Uncle Tony looks in the mirror and says, ”Don’t worry about the fart lady, cause you’ll be shittin’ when you see the fare on this ride.”
    That was one of many he told.

  49. And what’s with the purple? That’s the colour Anglican bishops often wear, and haven’t heard she’s even been priested yet.

  50. “Elizabeth May does not have any redeeming qualities. Not one.”
    I find in her a redeeming quality. She has always, always, been pro-Life.
    Even though Lizzie’s first political membership was NDP, even though she is a vegan, even though she is the Leader of Gang Green in Canada, I find to her credit that she has always been pro-Life and even talked some women out of having abortions.
