THE ASIAN INVASION WELCOMED BY HARPER GOVERNMENT PORTS PLAN:
http://tinyurl.com/yqeon6

Now we know why David Emerson was parachuted into the CPC...he was the Liberal's point man on west coast Chinese trade expansion...seems Harper has kept him busy designing a direct route for Chinese mercantilism hegemony to flood the nation with Chinese goods.....this was an LPC-Powercor initiative but Harper seems intent on carrying on with this...who's agenda is the CPC carrying anyway?

"According to Transport Canada, between 1995 and 2005, Canada's exports more than doubled, from $3.5 billion to $7.1 billion, in Canadian dollars.

Yet, imports from China dwarfed the numbers.

Between 1995 and 2005, Canada's imports from China grew almost 550 percent, jumping from $3.6 billion to $29.6 billion, in Canadian dollars. "

I believe in accuracy of CNN reporting here:

The reason being the area of alledged strike is high resolution on Google Earth, which means satellites were directed to that area quite recently. This is a small area of the desert about 20 by 50 kms. Other than weapons from Iran there is nothing there of interest.

The problem with that suggestion is that the images would still be classified.

The Beijing regime really has the greatest friends in the world. Disgraced Canadian oil tycoon-turned-U.N. bureaucrat Maurice Strong has resurfaced in China, where one of TT’s colleagues bumped into him at the World Economic Forum on Growth in Dalian this past weekend. Naturally he was basking in the spotlight of the Chinese media, since he can be relied on for plenty of Bush-bashing quotes.

A year or two ago, I joined this place called eVox, it is Decima's online polling thing. Yesterday, I got an email inviting me to take part in a poll. One of the questions was about the upcoming Saskatchewan election, which party would you vote for type of thing. They had the Liberal party, Green party, NDP party, Progressive Conservative of Saskatchewan party, and other. No Sask party option.

Anyone else do this poll? Anyone else find it odd that the name of one of the horses in a two horse race was left out? Anyone know anything about this?

The image of Syrian desert would not be classified, as we saw it on Google Earth than suddenly a few spots on Afghan-Pakistan border appeared in high res when US were hunting for Osama.

Attention News/Lifestyle Editors:

Sheila Copps is new Herbal Magic spokesperson
LONDON, ON, Sept. 10 /CNW/ - Former Deputy Prime Minister Sheila Copps
teams up with former Toronto Maple Leafs General Manager Gord Stellick to
share her weight loss success, proof that Herbal Magic works and lasts.
Herbal Magic, Canada's largest weight loss company, has helped Sheila
Copps lose weight and now the ex-politician turned media personality is
spreading her successful and healthy weight loss message across the country.
As a figure in the public eye, Copps battled her weight for years, but
finally decided to do something about it for good with the help of Herbal
Magic. Now she is proud and excited to be taking her weight loss success
public with her. Copps recently lost 25 pounds in four months. "I've always
had to fight for what I believe in," says Copps, "but thanks to Herbal Magic,
fighting my battle with the bulge was easier than I thought. I'm proof that
Herbal Magic works." Stellick, on the other hand, is proof that Herbal Magic
lasts. The current sports radio and TV personality is already a Herbal Magic
spokesperson, and has been maintaining his 43 pound weight loss for the past
two years. "I feel more successful now," says Stellick, "because I've kept the
weight off. That's the best part about Herbal Magic." Both Copps and Stellick
will appear together in radio and print ads for Herbal Magic in the coming
months.
Robb Chase, President and CEO of Herbal Magic, explains the company's
decision to use Copps. "Sheila is a great role model for women. She has a
reputation for standing up for what she believes in. Clearly that reputation
for integrity is important." For Chase, Copps is the quintessential Canadian
to help spread the Herbal Magic message. "It all adds up to a well-known
spokesperson with authenticity and a real connection to our target market."

Herbal Magic has over 350 centres across the country, each one offering
weight management programs that promote safe, consistent weight loss while
meeting the body's basic nutritional needs through a combination of one-on-one
meal planning using grocery store food and natural herbal supplements. Herbal
Magic employs a Scientific Advisory Team made up of health care experts in
charge of products and program development. Based at head office, they are
on-call with Herbal Magic health counsellors to ensure that clients receive
the best care available. The team includes Doctors of Naturopathic Medicine, a
Pharmacist, and a Pharmacy Technician.

The veil is a Muslim jail for women. The Muslim veil is imposed on women by male-dominated, women-hating Islam.

“Suppression of women is a measure of suppression of the society”
"“the measure of suppression of the society is suppression of women”!"

Recently we witnessed yet another wave of attacks by the Islamic Republic regime against women in Iran. Why do you think such attacks do not instigate mass protests? Do you think people have become conservative in their ways of combating such attacks? Do you think the Iranian regime is trying to intimidate women and push them back?

Fourier and Marx said, “The measure of society’s freedom is the freedom of women”. In the case of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) one must say, “the measure of suppression of the society is suppression of women”! From the very first day of coming to power, the IRI violently staged attacks against women, forcing them to wear the Islamic veil. The slogan of the day was “the veil or head bashing”. ...-

Smackdown in Brussels. The EU comes down hard on peaceful protest to commemorate 9/11 and object to the Islamization of Europe. Covered by Michelle Malkin and Brussels Journal. See the video. Compare to BBC's "Police clashed with some of the 200 demonstrators . . ." -- "clashed" my butt.

YOUNG MUSLIMS BEGIN DANGEROUS FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT TO ABANDON FAITH
"A group of young Muslim apostates launches a campaign today, the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on America, to make it easier to renounce Islam. The provocative move reflects a growing rift between traditionalists and a younger generation raised on a diet of Dutch tolerance."

Tories ready to legislate over veil controversy

The Conservative government is prepared to legislate, if need be, to require Muslim women wearing niqabs and burkas to show their faces to vote, Democratic Reform Minister Peter Van Loan said yesterday -- as the showdown between Parliament and Canada's chief electoral officer continued to unfold.

However, Mr. Van Loan said the government still believes that it should be Chief Electoral Officer Marc Mayrand who should back down and change the guidelines he has adopted that provide for mechanisms that would allow a woman who refuses to remove her face-covering veil to still vote. ...-

"Ant traps work."
More bait, please.

Iraq as Qaeda Bait

The Left thinks Iraq is a killing field for Americans. Actually, it is a killing field for our enemies, at a very great but vitally important sacrifice. That reflects a grand strategy, tailored to the peculiar nature of the global terror threat.

You don't shoot poisonous fire-ants with a BB gun; you just set an ant trap. Ant colonies are highly "distributed" biological societies, much like the world-wide web. They can't be killed with a BB or a pressure hose; even pouring flaming gasoline on an ant hill won't work.

Instead, you destroy ant colonies by attracting hungry ants to a chemical bait, and then kill them all in one small place. Ant traps work.

That's the Bush strategy in Iraq. Al Qaeda isn't centralized, with big cities or steel industries like Nazi Germany. So you can't destroy the enemy by hunting them one by one. Rather, you bait a trap -- provoke them to come to you, and make sure they don't get out alive.

Iraq is a trap for Al Qaeda. Our mere presence in the heart of the Osama's Caliphate-To-Be draws them like ants to sugar. General Petraeus just reported that

"...in the past 8 months, we have considerably reduced the areas in which Al Qaeda enjoyed sanctuary. We have also neutralized 5 media cells, detained the senior Iraqi leader of Al Qaeda-Iraq, and killed or captured nearly 100 other key leaders and some 2,500 rank-and-file fighters. Al Qaeda is certainly not defeated; however, it is off balance and we are pursuing its leaders and operators aggressively."

Most of the Qaeda fighters come from Saudi Arabia and other breeding grounds. Now that the Sunni tribes are turning against them, they are more exposed and hunted than ever before. Wars are fluid and unpredictable, but no one can imagine that Al Qaeda is happy with its victories since 9/11.

In Afghanistan, they have been on the run since 2003, although the Pakistan border regions continue to supply new recruits. But in Afghanistan they are being destroyed before ever reaching the cities. Add that to a sizable numbers neutralized in Pakistan, Somalia, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and more. Add to that the cells pinpointed in Europe and America, the Philippines and Indonesia. We are wiping out the fire ants wherever they can be found.

At that attrition rate, every single year we stay in Iraq, we could get rid of another couple of thousand AQ fighters. Yes, we pay a high price -- but nothing like the price that baddies running loose and attacking us at home would exact.

We are demonstrating who is the strong horse, and who is the weak horse. When the message is finally driven home, the enemy will come to his own conclusions. ...-

Another idiot judge interprets the Charter of Rights and Freedom to allow a convicted criminal to stay in Canada.

Federal Court of Canada Judge Sean Harrington stopped this Saturday's deportation of a Christian man from Brazil so he can complete his conversion to Judaism alongside his Jewish wife and his sponsoring rabbi.

The ruling, in favour of Diogo Cichaczewski, is believed to be the first of its kind. But you can bet it wont be the last.

"The Charter guarantees freedom of religion and freedom to practise that religion and express that religion in a public way. But there is nothing in Canada's legislation or in the Charter that guarantees the completion of a private religious process or guarantees one can do that in a particular place," said Sergio Karas, a Toronto immigration lawyer.

"I would argue that a religious conversion is intrinsically a private act between an applicant and the clergy. Nothing would prevent him from completing his conversion in Brazil.

"This is an enormous stretch from what the Charter says," Mr. Karas said

Mr. Cichaczewski has completed the classes necessary to convert to Judaism, which typically lasts a full year.

Can you imagine how much this cost us to reach this stupid decision? I would bet anything this crook will be granted permanent status as his wife will sponsor him or he gets her pregnant.

Any judge with the slightest common sense would ask, is this person a good addition to Canada and would answer, a drug runner in Brazil and a criminal here in Canada, end of story you are out of here! The liberal mind in action.

It's the usual procedure, creeps and convicted criminals, suddenly find religion thinking they'll be redeemed in the eyes of society and even the Law.

Doesn't take much to convince the Legals, every day in some Court near you they prove the saying, the law is an ass.
