Stay Tuned

Just caught wind that there's something coming down the pipe on Jean-Daniel Lafond that makes John Ralston Saul look like Rush Limbaugh.

c'mon Kate, give us a teaser!

Oh, the anticipation!

Jean oh, Jean
Where have you been?
I've been to Scotland
To visit the Queen!
So, did all those emails to Her Majesty and to Paul Martin have any effect?
Doesn't seem like it!

Waiting eagerly... I'm English by birth, so the GG's job is important to me. Of course, more wood for the fire is always nice...

I'll be the first to take a crack at it.

She had a three way with Fidel and Che.

Her husband had a three way with Fidel and Che.

Her husband had a three way with John Ralston Saul and Jack Layton. JR said afterward "it was gross" which led to Jack calling JR "Rush Limbaugh."

Most likely: She had a three way with Kofi and Mugabe.

Is Jean a member of a controversial fringe group...the FLQ? Communist Party of Canada? NAMBLA?

Posted by: Martin B. at September 7, 2005 6:42 PM

Nothing surprises me anymore. Maybe Kate will do to Lafond as was done to Dan Rather. Wouldn't that be cool?

Betcha whatever it is, the MSM will not go with it. That'd be further proof of the irrelevance of the elitist talking heads who try to tell us what to think...

Posted by: Stephen McAllister at September 7, 2005 7:17 PM

Perfectly obvious. The separatists will blow him up (cuz he's a turncoat) and the Libs will take a lot of the shrapnel.

Posted by: Texan at September 7, 2005 7:22 PM

Lost Budgie is still waiting for our GG to answer a few questions...

FOUR QUESTIONS for Canada's Governor General Designate, Michaelle Jean...

1/ Of all the available carpenters, why did you choose convicted FLQ terrorist Jacques Rose to build your library?

2/ Does the bookcase have a secret compartment to hold guns as reported in the media?

3/ Will you be using your FLQ terrorist-built library for Official Functions?

4/ Have you ever read the letters written by Pierre Laporte just before he was murdered?

The big surprise would be if Jean-Daniel was not a member of the communist party!

Posted by: Joe Molnar at September 7, 2005 7:48 PM

Belinda and Lapierre? That'd be a much better match. They deserve each other, as neither can hold a candle to a dog for loyalty, both are crass, opportunistic turncoats, etc. If true, then it speaks volumes that not only did BS move fast after plunging that knife into MacKay's back, but that she's with a separatist... if true, of course.

Posted by: Stephen McAllister at September 7, 2005 7:50 PM

Maybe Lafond will reveal that he's, in fact, a she... or perhaps that he's an alien?

Excerpt OF Bablefish's translation of green mamba's link, giggly:

"Official statement -

For immediate diffusion

The attack counters Michaëlle Jean: the double bottom of the history

The Inhabitant of Quebec makes public of the declarations pro-felquistes
of Jean-Daniel Lafond

*********************************
This is the important part (I think):

Reacting to the kicks given by the Inhabitant of Quebec to Paul Martin and to the pseudo court which surrounds it, the small character who is Jean Lapierre did not find anything of to better say that Jean-Daniel Lafond had approached the felquists quite simply like very good documentarist approaches his subjects. However, the foreword written by Jean-Daniel Lafond for the publication of the scenario of its film freedom in anger contains remarks diametrically opposite with the declarations of the liberal underling for Quebec. Indeed, in this book, published into 1994 with the Editions of the Hexagon, Mr. Lafond specifies his thought and his relations with the felquists. He first of all specifies the nature of the relation which linked it in Francis Simard, felquist which took part in 1970 in the execution of Pierre Laporte, Deputy Prime Minister for Quebec. On this subject, Lafond writes the following thing: "Our complicity was immediate, as if we share for a long time the secret reason of its exile, the deep wound that the history had left in him and the great silence which surrounds this moment of collision in oneself of the policy and the close friend, that which leads one day to decide on the death of a man" (p. 17). The assertion is eloquent!
...

Speaking about the reasons to make his film with the felquists, Jean-Daniel Lafond writes further: "It was perhaps an occasion to include/understand the major causes of the political greyness which has covered Quebec for soon a decade, when the politicians of all hairs reduced to nothing the old dreams of freedom, confirming by there the triumph with the technocrats on the thinkers, of the accountants on the poets" (p. 18). Could that be clearer like standpoint?

********************************

Speaking about his friends felquists, the prince consort adds: " And I imagined that they had not lowered the arms to join the chorus of resigned "(p. 18). Appert today that the man and his wife now joined this "chorus of resigned" that Lafond denounced it not such a long time ago! With the large injury of his/her former friends whom it positively qualified in his foreword as those which "represent thirty years of hopes progressists in Quebec" (p. 28).

Posted by: ChristianConservative at September 7, 2005 8:29 PM

I read the link Christian Conservative. It should be obvious to all that Jean Chretien did the translating for Google.

Posted by: BC Con at September 7, 2005 8:36 PM

Try this translation of the title instead (that BabelFish one has me wondering if I know how to read English):

For immediate release:

The attack against Michaelle Jean: the in-depth story

Le Quebecois is making public Jean-Daniel Lafond's pro-FLQ (felquistes?) statements

Jean-Daniel Lafond clearly supports the FLQ
(subtitle further down)

Sounds pretty damning, if true.

Posted by: Shane O. at September 7, 2005 8:39 PM

Maple Stump, goodness gracious, no way could I be that freak Lafond... I prefer to just have the barber attach the number one to the clippers and mow my hair off like a golf course. Lafond's hair is scary as hell. Clinging vainfully to remaining scraps is stupid. I prefer the "Captain Picard" to the "Captain Moonbat".

Maybe the big surprise is Lafond is a superhero named Captain Moonbat.

Posted by: Stephen McAllister at September 7, 2005 8:39 PM

ChristianConservative: can't help you; I've just been ghougling and have no special knowledge.

There's a possibility it's related to this outfit with which JPL was involved (documentary movies - think Michael Moore):

This may not be it but it's dirty. Translated page has JDL working on this little project:

History of Hassan , Jean-Daniel Lafond , proposes the portrait of an American Black, converted with the Islam, which assassinated an American political personality. Tracked for 25 years, sought by the FBI, Hassan has not regretted anything. Product by the Love in the year 2000.

If that's what he does, I find it a trifle annoying.

Oil for Fleece

The New York Times provides this summary of the Paul Volcker's final report. The report itself is available here at the Volker Commission site.


One fascinating document -- Volume II - Report of Investigation: Programme Background -- details the smuggling, the role of the different countries, of Maurice Strong, etc and deserves really close attention. I hope to post on this later, if time permits, but commenters with the time available should look through it: this is how the UN system works.>>>

Michael said...

Maurice Strong used to be a highly celebrated man here in Toronto. And he was supposedly very wealthy. It's surprising to see him accused of stealing money from the UN.

wretchard said...

Here was this pile of money, an oil revenue stream, whose source was controlled by Saddam Hussein. Everyone wanted a piece of it. UN officials, traders, US enemies, US allies. Everyone. Then there was the program of sanctions, the direct outgrowth of leaving Saddam in power after Desert Storm. You had to square one with other and ultimately you couldn't. There were the No-fly zones, the parking of the fleet in the Persian Gulf, etc. These were real. Then there was OFF and smuggling. These were real too.

It was like keeping a pedophile under house arrest then giving him a global mail order catalog and telephone, or if you like, access to the Internet. Then, from time to time, you sent inspectors in to make sure he wasn't doing the dirty.

Wow. I don't want to be a party pooper or anything, but a light bulb just came one over my head and it has the word Pavlov on it. This is certainly an interesting anthropological experiment you're conducting Kate. Thanks for the data, every little bit helps.

Posted by: Tony at September 7, 2005 9:56 PM

The newspaper article is essentially very pro sovereignist, very hostile to Martin and Canada. Canada is viewed as a colonial country, colonizing Quebec, and the article affirms that Lafond is, without any doubt, a confirmed 'separatiste' and that this fact will become very clear.

I think that most of us know this; Martin's gov't is trying to deny it. However, I think that most Canadians don't realize how deep this perspective of Quebecers is - and there are quite a few of them - how they view Canada as a foreign - and occupying country. They view the Canadian gov't as a hostile occupier. And, they are intent on insisting that Lafond is 'one of theirs'.

Posted by: ET at September 7, 2005 10:00 PM

I believe the scoop is that Daniel was once secretly married to Wendy Mesley and they are engaged in a custody battle over Peter Mansbridge's collection of ties.

Or was it that Daniel was really the brains behind the Frankie Howerd Show http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/articles/f/frankiehowerdsho_7773505.shtml

I suppose given the new Draconian regime in Canada I should preface my satire by saying that it is, in fact, satire.

No, really.

Plus ca change.

Posted by: Plato's Stepchild at September 7, 2005 11:29 PM

Lafond dresses for Jean's success
Governor-General-designate Michaelle Jean went to Scotland this week to meet her boss, and the photos of that encounter - one of them was on our front page yesterday - should generate considerable dismay among the true believers of Quebec's separatist movement.

Although getting wrapped up in the political intrigue over FLQ sympathizers posing as our head of state is energizing, we really have to remind ourselves that Jean and her hubby could be caught on film planting bombs for the FLQ and it wouldn't alter a thing.

The PMO has made an edict and the MSM promotes it.

This has been the operation of government for over a decade...the PMO issues edicts and the MSM tells us we must support them, these are not acts based in public opinion or fear of it....these decisions/appointments are raw patronage or crass vote buying....this is the entrenched order. Until that changes, all the skeletons, in all the closets whic are uncovered are just so much useless calcium.

I mean, the liberals are in staus quo coast mode now... so they obviously feel that have walked out of even Gomery unscathed....what's one more scandal?

Please use the Hammer and Sickles fact checking methods and just run a tiny little correction notice a week later if there seems to be a fuss.
Seems to be the new journalistic standard for the Canadian MSM.

I've taken the liberty of concocting, er... uh researching a very solid story here please feel free to use it ...
Carol Jamieson is Paul Martins chief of staff and half sister, and she says that Martin while visiting his mentor known billiionaire ecoloon Maurice Strong at his armed compound in Haiti 35 years ago discovered a baby floating in a basket at his taxpayer funded tropical paradise.
Jamieson who also bore Pierre Trudeau 7 illegitimate clones also added that Maurice swore Paul Martin to secrecy and raised the small girl as a French socialist ecoterrorist. Subsequently on further visits to Maurice's tropical nude only lair Paul Martin stole the now infant charge from Strong's evil tutelage and brought her back to Canada where she was instantly put into the Liberal mind control camp in northern Chibougamoo (run by Warren Kinsela) to be indoctrinated as a future CBC talking head.
Jamieson further notes that the small girl found floating in a basket in Haiti 35 years ago was in fact the newly appointed GG Jean who she further noted was proven through DNA testing to be the love child from Adrian Clarkson and Pierre Trudeau's early beach/pot party one night stand.

Then two weeks from now if any of this story receives any threatening letters from enraged lieberal moonbats issue this little statement " Carol Jamieson is crazy, it's not our fault, get over it."

Kate: You have posted one of my comments before. I am the woman whose whose windows in Montreal were blown out (along with the windows in every home in my block) by a FLQ bomb when I was 13. It is fair to say that the stress of the FLQ crisis destroyed my family as my mother returned to Ontario at its peak leaving my father and us kids to fend for ourselves.

When I first saw Jean and Lafond at the press conference the hairs on the back of my neck stood straight up. Something told me that something was very, very wrong about them. It would be wrong to call me a racist. Black people do evil things too. When their background as confreres of the top FLQ brass, not to mention toasting the dissolution of countries came out I was enraged. I remember James Cross (kidnapped) and Pierre Laporte (kidnapped and assassinated) by the FLQ and the murder of others such as Madam St. Germaine at the Department of National Defence headquarters in Ottawa. I remember the the weekly bombings in Montreal during the late 60's. I have written my MP Stephen Owen and Paul Martin asking Martin to rescind his appointment immediately. I have not received the courtesy of a response from either of them.

I am starting a letter writing campaign today and I intend to write every MP and Senator asking that this appointment be rescinded. Seeing her and that Lafond with their smug faces makes me feel like I have just been bombed again or stabbed n the heart by my Prime Minister. Please use your blog to get Jean's appointment rescinded and to have the post of Governor General become an elected position. I have the gravest fear for the survival of Canada as we know it if these two take over Rideau Hall.

Paul Martin has surely sold his soul to the devil.
