Coren's show should be fun on Friday.

Anti-semite or anti-zionist? (There is a difference.) In any case, other than making Canwest/National Post cry, there will not be any practical consequence to this proposal: "Should it pass that point, the union would then ask the province's schools to respect the prohibition." Big deal.

In my lifetime, I expect to see someone launch rockets into the US from the Toronto area. Ontario is a total loss. If Canada has any hope of surviving, Ontario needs a few life-saving amputations.

Jumpin' Jesus on a pogo stick!!! Where the hell do these fruitcups get their news? The Onion? Mad Magazine? Worse I suspect. CBC. These asshats in CUPE are an embarassment to unions everywhere. It's no bloody wonder that unions are slammed so hard. But I digress. This just proves once yet again "Intolerance of tolerance" Have we not been blindly lead to believe that ours was a country of tolerance and understanding? Are we not a cultural mosaic? BULLSCAT!!!!! I have nothing but highest regard and respect for the Jewish people. To put up with this crap for centuries is remarkable.

Universities are to be a place of higher (hmmm) learning, not holier than thou preaching. But then again, most people I've met with a university degree have tended to be somewhat elitist anyway. So glad I went to a technical college and learned a real trade. If slightly off topic, I apologize.

I suggest writing to CUPE. The address is
cupeont at web dot net.

A union has no right to make a political stance; its only 'right' is to represent its workers in the work place. Period. The only people with the right to make a political stance is the individual, and the union has no right to take away that right from the individual member of that union.

As for Ryan's assertion, it is bigoted and 'racist'. Heck, where's the HRC on this? Hmm? Isn't this setting up Israeli professors to be viewed with 'hatred and contempt'?

The assertion that no Israeli has a right to be on a Canadian campus, unless they condemn the Gaza assault is a denial of freedom of speech. That's a Charter violation. That's as bad as claiming that all Muslim immigration to Canada must be stopped.

It isn't simply universities, but our nation, which must be open to debate, questions, discussion - and the right to hold different opinions. We certainly can evaluate and judge these different opinions, but forbidding them isn't an option in a 'free' country.

Write to CUPE.

I wonder which part of the rocketry dept. got hit at the Islamic university?

Local Fortinos carries Israeli dates since last week. Delicious! Much better quality than Turkish and Iranian. Yam!

"A union has no right to make a political stance; its only 'right' is to represent its workers in the work place. Period. The only people with the right to make a political stance is the individual, and the union has no right to take away that right from the individual member of that union."

Very well stated, ET.

ET, CUPE is the union of the OHRC's workers. Its going to be interesting to see how they manage this conundrum.

My money is on the OHRC charging Bernie Farber of the CJC with being offside.

I'm waiting to see how Warnout Kinsellya reacts to the HRC non-reaction. Maybe the light will go on inside his tiny brain... nah, never happen.

I must have missed something. I thought the purpose of a union was to represent the dues-paying members in matters of working conditions, pay, etc., not to vet those hired into management.

Note to CUPE: If you wish to have a say in who is, or isn't hired, as a professor, start your own university.

CUPE: Commie Wankers!

From a longer post by me at Dawg's a few days ago:

I had a delicious moment recently when I saw Sid (they called me an anti-Semite) Ryan on TV with Coren, discussing the US elections. Dear Sid claimed that the McCain campaign was racist. The rest of the panel was dumbfounded. Sid explained that certain words they used were “a code.” So help me.

Oh what a surprise, our bloated gubmint union leader outs himself for the fascist stupid anti-Semite POS that he is.

Keep typing commie.

Fave Sid-on-Coren moment, during a debate on "Hitler's Pope" fau history:

Coren: Now Sid, just curious -- what was the Pope's name during WW2, when all this was supposedly going on?

Sid: I don't know and it doesn't matter anyway!! He was evil!!

CUPE's uninformed and infantile pronouncements should simply be ignored.

As with all things in life .... consider the source.

If the contact people within federal government agencies are any indication, I'd estimate 75% of Ontario's CUPE members are muslim. It doesn't surprise me, considering that most middle east immigrants live off the artificial government economy.

ET- CUPE is representing its dues paying members quite well. This Ryan fellow is simply protecting his job(and possibly his health) by supporting the Islamic movement.

Sid Ryan is a bum-boy for Islamofacism.
Sid sucks. Literally.

Speaking of immigration policy, perhaps we should more closely inspect the type of leftists we allow into Canada.

Sid, 'stach-heavy Judy Rebick, OCAP leader John Clarke, even fat and useless Dawgtor Dork are all foreign born SOB's that have managed to get into this great country and are now working on its destruction.

This makes me embarassed to be university educated. I work for and with a number of really great Jewish people, I've gone to classes with girls who moved to Canada to get away from the violence. I've been in a sorority with the same girls, and they are always the most vocal supporters of peace, because they know the harsh realities that those fools in CUPE dont have a clue about. Not to say peace at the cost of their own existence, which is the only condition which could result in peace between Israel and its neighbors, but peace nonetheless.
That the CUPE is taking sides in this proves yet again that not only are they a joke organization (I refuse to acknowledge their existence as a union, unions dont take sides in political conflict, does this make me intolerant and evil, or does this make me right, cause Hamas refuses to acknowledge Israel's right to exist and according to the CUPE's logic, they're still right) but they deserve to be disbanded, because they are stifling free speech, promoting intolerance and hatred against a group of people of a certain ethnic and geographic origin, and have completely destroyed the idea of educating and approaching ALL viewpoints with an open mind.

Before the anti-Ontario and anti-Toronto chorus gets too giddy, they should be reminded Syd Ryan has run for public office in Ontario in three provincial and two federal elections. He was defeated each and every time.

You might also be reminded there is a significant contingent of conservative-minded individuals in Ontario who are frankly unimpressed by the juvenile anti-Ontario rants from the cheap seats. It does nothing zero nada to promote solidarity with our greater cause.

Kate, I always thought the phrase was "scratch a leftie and you'll find a fascist". Little Sid's (is the small man syndrome manifesting itself?) fascist layer seems closer to the surface than most. A French writer (Jean Francois Revelle, I believe) wrote a book about how and why totalitarianism is a constant temptation for the political left.

This may just be a case of solidarity. Are they serious or are they simply supporting their brothers and sisters who are in the workers union at the Gaza Islamic university?

Oh, no unions in the Islamic workers paradise of Gaza? Especially no 'sisters' in a union in the Islamic people's paradise of Gaza?

So why get down on the Jews? Perhaps the unionistas have be brain-washed by proxy with the Jew hate that is prevalent in many Canadian universities?

Stop inviting Jewish academics from lecturing at Canadian universities and hire only Islamic intellectuals to replace them and ... hey ... have fun kids. And good luck finding those Islamic academics.

Jews pop approx. 17 million - hold 150 Nobel prizes in all disciplines

Islam pop approx 1.5 billion - hold 8 Nobel prizes in limited categories ... one held by the terrorist Yassir Arafat.

Unions ... the folks who would rather destroy their employers than take a cut to save their own freaking jobs.

Unions ... the folks who want to tell universities who to hire.

Unions ... an albatross around the necks of free thinking people.

Unionism ... the career opportunity for the dullards of society.

Unions like Charities should not be allowed to have a political agenda. If Charities do they loose their "charitable" status and can no longer issue tax deductible receipts for donations.

If a Union has a political agenda the member's dues should no longer be deductible from income for tax purposes.

Sid Ryan is a disgrace. We'll see how Coren deals with this when he appears on his show this week.

Need any more proof the Leftist mind lacks the capacity for reasoned thought and common sense?
It's really a dangerous mental derangement.

Universities and unions can have their cake and eat it, too. They can ban free speech, bully opposing points of view AND be anti-semites. If you were an idiot without any conscience, this would be a win-win situation.

Posted by: Dr. Strangelove at January 6, 2009 11:36 AM

Juvenile anti-Ontario rants from the cheap seats?

Time to wake up and smell the coffee.

That's alot of words to say " NO JEWS ALLOWED ".

dp:

I thought Strangelove was making the point of don't judge all Ontarians by its extremists.

Now, if Ontario voters can prove Strangelove's sentiments and vote in enough Conservatives to give Harper a majority, I would be totally convinced.

a different bob has hit the proverbial nail on the head: unions should not be in politics, period.

If they "teach" Rocketry 101 at Gaza U, what do you suppose is going on at the universities in Iran?

Posted by: Paul at January 6, 2009 11:00 AM CUPE:

"Commie Wankers!"

You have that right Paul.

Sid Ryan is a commie, ( 1st cousin, or maybe even brother ) to Taliban Jack, the reincarnation of Vladimir Lenin.
AnD Toronto is their natural home.

Sid's commments underline the notion that unions have served their members well. If we assume that the only purpose of a union is to negotiate for its members, then the unions have done their jobs. They are finished and have matured to the point of obsolesence when they cease to bargain and their purpose becomes political.
I despise Sid and every comment that comes out of his leftard brain.

The rising (and accelerating) tide of anti-semitism in nearly every avenue of life is disturbing.

It's bad enough to wade through some of the flame wars on YouTube (quite an education), but to have a public service union promulgate it is deeply upsetting, to say the least.

Sid isn't going to change his mind. But the union members can speak up. And should.

"there is a significant contingent of conservative-minded individuals in Ontario"

Thanks for the sanity, Strangelove, I've spent the morning listening to people talking on Toronto radio about what a fool ryan is. Judging by dp's comments, I'd say ryan isn't the only bigot indulging in idiotic stereotypes.

I wasn't sure what Dr. Strangelove was saying. Heck, I'm from Toronto, thus Ontario, and have no problem with factual criticisms of both places -- G*d knows, we've got a lot of nut cases and losers running both joints.

It just happens that the ban Israeli academics from Canadian universities is been being championed and supported by Sid Ryan and CUPE Ontario. So what's the problem? Sid's an Ontarian and, presumbably, the members of CUPE Ontario are too. Should we be criticizing the other provinces' CUPE organizations?

'Just wondering. If the foo **its ... and all that ... ;-)

Since CUPE is now officially anti-semitic it is our duties as citizens of this great Dominion of Canada to boycott all organizations which has CUPE workers. This includes government, universities and crown entities such as the HRC's. As such if you pay your taxes or respond to a complaint from an HRC it means you are an anti-semite supporter.

The problem, batb, is that Sid Ryan can do whatever-the-hell he wants AS AN INDIVIDUAL. CUPE is a member supported UNION. Don't use the term "organization" - its a UNION - paid for by all the member's dues. That UNION has absolutely no business advocating such a position. Individuals can take whatever position they want but the union disrespects many of its members who do not share the opinion of the useful idiot known as Sid Ryan.

Islamic University in Gaza - aka Hamas rocket staging site #100

Now is the time for "moderate" CUPE members to speak up. Actually, the best message they could give to re-assure the rest of us is to dump Ryan immediately and unceremoniously.

Meanwhile, York University students here in Ontario are at risk of losing their entire school year because of a strike by CUPE.

Great priorities, Sid...

If a union has a political stance then should union dues not be considered a political donation and not be fully tax deductible?

Well, free speech warriors, when are you going to report Ryan to the HRC?

"Now is the time for "moderate" CUPE members to speak up."

Unless this guy gets canned CUPE members in Ontario have been spoken for.

DR Stangelove

I'm pretty sure T.O. and Ontario are responsible for anti-Semitism in the first place/sarc

The statements of the Cupe leader are the best practical argument i have seen for getting rid of closed shop rules (we are the only english-speaking country that still has them, BTW) in a while.

Imagine if you are jewish and have your union dues paying for this guy expressing support for your extermination.

Ulianov - only lefties like you give ligitimacy to Canada's HRC's by launching complaints. Right thinking folks would rather expose the hate-mongering anti-semites for what they are on forums such as this one. It is highly unlikely that Ryan nor the CUPE will have a complaint launched against them.

ulianov, if we do d'ya think they'll ding him?

Hey Lil' Ulianov, I doubt that anyone on here will be inclined to report Sid Ryan to your Marxist HRC. In regard to the recent rally in Toronto that Ryan sponsored, I just posted: "Free Speech indeed should be paramount in Canada. But given the ability to say anything, some people choose to disgrace themselves."

Which brings us full circle back to you. You disgrace yourself on here on a regular basis. We applaud your participation because it's like attending a Freak Show of Half-Wits with you playing ALL the characters!

very good sid Ryan

i respected his view

Why isreali soldures
must shot university in first place
those barbarian jewish came from nowhere
steal the land kill people and cut the water and put bom in ambulance\
kill children

by killing 520 people and
3000 injury all hospital in middle east is full now

and only one isreali soldure died so far in past 10 days

OH i forgot that barbairn cut the water and supply of fule to civilan to go and find

all and all was done to go and find house of senior of hamas to kill him and his wife and children in first day

===

I read

sadam Husain first hit of bomb was in Iran and Iraq war
was head of board of education who killed minster of education and all at least 200 employees and teachers

second bomb of SADAM HUSSAIN was droped was
residence of all boys in university of Abadan city in Iran in night while all sutdents was sleeping in night all around 18 to 22 at least 300 was killed nobody survived

next was univeristy of oil enginnering in Iran

the university was closed for 3 years

===

if you look at all war crime
above said

Mr. barak must got arrested and go to jail
for cirminal war he is encouraging today

and all university must ban all
staff of jewsih enter to canada
for 4 reasons

1) isreail gov. are helping terrorist activity using the word 'WAR' as go and do horror illegaly
2) hit the universtiy in Palstin in recent days
3) embargo palestinin for even water
4) not respecting international law as web page of canada law also agree with terrority of state of isreal and state of paletin and now Isreali went and greed for more land and break the law of international which is canada is agree with it

for embargo palestinin and terroist acitivies and kill and attack universtity and break the law

one tactic of political can be used
against Isreali today governement

in order to people of state of isreal wake up and chang their gov to new gov soon and protest in street to ban and cease fire today and open embargo to land of state of pelstine today

---
as you can see tonry blair asked isreali to do listen and french president asked palestine to listen

isreali said NO we are not listening

CANADA-FRENCH-ENGLAND will give 24 more hour to them Isreali gov. to listen if not
international forcewill start to
put pressure for
first economical pressure on isreali first
or

example of above is good exampel to deport isreali profoseor out of canada

since this is trade for benefit isreali more than canada more

if isreal not listen that is force they must enter to isreal to listen

we do not need to start anything with war
with isreali

last step if all polical ways not listen

i think they must arrest Barak to put him to court and put in jail for break war crime above!!!

blood of isreali men and woman is not reder than blood of pelstina kids

both deserved to live
just wake up
this is good example for polticial pressure to both countries to listen

i am right or still all is personal!!

this time this peace process must see seriously

if any of the party are not respected
must pay price for it even palstinain too!!
this book must get closed soon
sorry justthinkin!! or lookout you can not gossip more if you wish as ususal

i agree with example above is good direction
nobody has right to bomb university or hospital
they know exactly what they are doing

In support of Dr. Strangelove I'd like to point out that Ontario has more CPC MPs than Alberta. Unfortunately the 416 area code has almost as many people in it as Alberta, and many of them appear to be imbeciles.

That'd be my estimation, having lived in 416 for pretty much the whole 1980's. It sucked. I left. 416 has gone down hill since.

New - an observation if you will - There is a direct correlation between the number of missiles Hamas launches at civilians in Israel, to the number of hospitals Hamas should build.

Aside from that you are a complete nutbar - and that's your good side.

I was a member of CUPE. Not by choice. You don't get that choice when you are a graduate student in Ontario.

But I do know the CUPE goons are the cause of the strike at YorkU, holding everyones education hostage for money. And they are the same goons that get money from the University to operate (in addition to the cover-charge they take off a students teaching paycheque). A big part of their budget (even in non-strike times) is spent on Marxist propaganda.

I have stated in so many words to the presidents of every University I've attended that there will be no donations until CUPE is no longer in control and is not funded by the university, and that I'm spreading the word.

I urge everyone to consider this when thinking of donating to your alma mater: CUPE takes a skim. Don't donate until these goons and leaches get nothing.

Wow, has somebody invented a time and space machine? Sure sounds like Nazi Germany these days.

What is next a good old fashion book burning?

One has to wonder if Sid Ryan and his CUPE thugs will soon be turning their gaze toward Canadian children ... of Jewish descent:

http://www.spectator.co.uk/melaniephillips/3208771/in-the-face-of-evil-a-sudden-silence-descends.thtml

Don't say "Never", especially not when you're dealing with the Leftist mind.

Question: If Jews in Toronto are attacked and it is discovered that the perpetrator(s) attended the CUPE sponsored rally, should Sid Ryan personally be charged as an accomplish to a hate crime?

Lumpy - great observation! CUPE leadership is acting more and more like Nazis every day! They are advocating hauling the Jews out of a university if they don't agree with their political point of view. I suppose there is one small difference - CUPE probably don't have any ovens. Or maybe they do.......

Hey new, seek help for that brain injury before it gets infected, didn't your mommy tell you guys when you were playing with rpg's, it would be all fun until one of you lost a brain.

Any moment now, Warren the Bathroom Nazi-Hunter will be on the case...

So, using Sid Ryan's thought process and if we consider that "turnabout is fair play", couldn't we ask that all Muslim teachers be asked to sign a document condemning Al Qaeda, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc. actions or not allow them to teach?

If Isreal does it it's ok. Anyone who doesn't agree is an antisemite. Jews think they have a god given right to be in Isreal because of a bible written by Jews. Of course it's the truth. What a crock/

bartinsky, you seem to know what it was that new said in that rambling post of his, could you please translate the spelling and grammatical nightmare into some form of modern English? I tried reading it, I was forced to give up (and I have to say, I think you're right about the playing with rpg's)

Robert W.:

I'm sooo hurt by your comments. Then I consider where they come from..."A 40-something Western Canadian fella who still thinks he's 24. Dreamer, thinker, photographer, traveler, entrepreneur, software developer."

An unemployed loser living in mommies basement.

ok4u

Many people lay many claims to many acres but it has been my observation that possesion is 90% of the law.

ok4ua....your comments are as thick as you apparently are. Even putting aside "the bible written by Jews" hatred that you exhibit, there are man made reasons for the right of Israel to exist. Just to freshen your memory (although you probably have never learned any of this, judging by your profound ignorance) in 1947, the United Nations approved the partition of Palestine into two states, one Jewish and one Arab. Surrounding Arab states REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE UN PLAN and on May 14, 1948 the state of Israel declared independence and this was followed by a war with the surrounding Arab states.

Israel has signed peace treaties with Egypt and Jordan, but several countries, including Syria and Iran, refuse to recognise Israel's right to exist.

Educate yourself rather than simply barfing up your brain dead bumper sticker mentality arguments.

they must force isreal to do cease fire they are not listening and need more international pressure such as above said form UN in universtiy

://www.reuters.com/news/video?videoId=95906
Is it universities place for happiness of learning and made you smart people in countries
Can we say smart people are mostly professors in universities? ! As most people respect this society

my ideas to find the way any way to force isreali to listen since they thinks they have power
made palestinan listen is piece of cake for Muslim they will easy listen if they see
isreali first stop all game plan over their dead body and this time need internatioal way to force
since look at news
isreali did not listen to BUSH and Mrs. Rice
and he did not listen to Blair or French or other UN this means political pressure need it
to let
in Jewish we have so many smart stil left there
if this goes from smart jewish to fight back their gov doing it wrong it is better
to used us as forigner to forced directly to them
the exmaple above look harmless to them but politiclay right to show we want cease fire today

The ridicules unbelievable story that everybody believe in certain extend
As everybody said Hamas used their woman and children to do attack his hate for old war revenge to Israeli Barak guy all is personal not really humanitarian help as their shelter
People lose focus to how help Palestinian over old war of politician in Palestine because of that comments
That was not intend to put land in where suppose to go and everybody know Israeli is play a game and this time more play bloody game boys
The same story from Israeli as also we can see
Every time
World tried to resolve
Issue of Palestine and Israeli
Issue to let this land get separated
All Jewish in Canada and USA jump
Said that is Jewish Muslim issue and all Muslim hate us and tried to say they are better than Jewish and Christian and not let them to stop this war for 40 years game plan
And Israeli used their Jewish religion to shelter to do what they like and excuse of anything wrong happened if we are Muslim and as soon as we say Israeli gov doing wrong we are label for our religion background or hate crime or so on
To hide that dirt for years to get resolve or keep change president keep change

this is a game to not focus to main issue and argue over nonimportant and not related issues
if you can get it
solution is simple
act is game of paly for more grid of land
and more money from USA

Nobody hate Jewish but everybody dislike Israeli continue racist actives over and over again
With no shame to see all picture
They are criminal and they know that not sense
This is like doctored see dead body and sick injured people more than
Israeli soldier gov is seeing all illegal activity they used that bad behaviour as used it
We do not know detail of CUPE
We are not here to made decision also that in past what CUPE did was right decision
I used the example like this to give lesson to Israeli if not stop cease fired
With political fight to force them to do so
We are not saying if today Afghani gov did not like Canada and send their students here and had argument they can also ban them in between too
My point only find politically fight them before with force is real by army to stop them to listen
Now you confuse things together
Each nonprofits and union made decision
Some is right or some is wrong
We are saying
If in world a group do bomb university
Canadian university can stop this
By saying you cannot bomb university
Since we are link together
This is like you bomb tell systems all country not let them communicate for study for sake of your own revenge
The issue you are mix up here and try to hid big dirty smell for so long by
Using Jewish Muslim in candy is nothing to do with issue we are talking
Israeli bomb university in Gaza and
This is break respect for university staffs
This is war crime as hum unitary
Off Course University was always back bone offal strike in world all people know that
That is reason IRAN CLOSE 3 YEARS UNIVERSTIY TO NOT ALLOW VOICE COME UP
Smart good heart people are student in university who are smart and know it all and able to speak while people who are worker scared to talk more in this regard
If university of YORK and Ryerson made all money and not pay good salary to their professor and all money go to owner of board of university
Then they had right ask more money and salary for them too
That is professor in university who bring more student and bring more credit for university not the building they deserve to get more salary every few years
If university grow and made more money they must p ay more money to profession not put in their own pocket too
Always university used for political reason to help since all

From the article CUPE is proudly displaying about this on their website:

Sid Ryan, President, CUPE Ontario, 416-209-0066
Pat Daley, CUPE Communications, 416-616-6142

Ulianov you little Jew-hating Communist, I probably make more money in one hour than you do in 2 or 3 days. But don't let the facts get in the way of your diaper-wearing illusions about yourself and your truly sick worldview.

new or ilianob or whoever you are, at the very least use spellcheck as your ramblings are impossible to follow. Why did the geniuses of Hamas, who as it seems seized power in Gaza when they lost the elections to the PLO,continue to fire rockets at civilians in Isreal for the last several years? Did they not realize that they would get their peepees slapped? For a bunch of clowns that depend on the state of Isreal for everything; fuel, food, electricity, medicine and jobs, they have a strange way of showing appreciation to their benefactors and cousins the Isrealis.

ET, said it perfectly, and said the same for years

I hope this goes all the way to implementation, and then those effected take it to court, as it will then be a legal matter, and maybe we will see the union a...holes slapped down

also it may give the CJC pause for thought on their "use" of the HRC

now to the stupid lefties "freedom of speech is an INDIVIDUAL right", Sid Ryan is not speaking as an individual....CAPICE!!!!!!!

ulianov states there is a difference between an anti-Semite and an anti-Zionist. This is not a new attempt to disguise anti-Semitism, but considering that anti-Semite means anti-Jew and anti-Zionist means anti-Jew, the only conclusion is that they are the same.

This is a perfect example of the problem with unions in that instead of negotiating pay and working conditions, they play politics with their members money. I am well aware of CUPE members who strongly disagree with the politics of CUPE and yet are forced to pay dues to the same. The same goes for the BC Teachers' union and all other unions.

It was over a year ago that I filed for a Industrial-Design/Intellectual Property Application for protection of a new Concept for a ECO/Accessible/Modular/Universal Fridge . The paper work and multi levels of Governments along with huge Legal costs plus the strings attached to any Ontario Funding had forced me to go to the USA while using my own money to keep these Yahoos in canada away from destroying my Business Plan.

I want to give the power back to private Citizens and local Businesses that must agree to my Employment standards of fair-treatment and wages , I reall don't care how someone becomes Moral and just as long as the worker is protected.


Thank god my business plan excludes Unions because at the rate the NDP/CAW/CUPE/OPSUE and Sid Ryan are poking the American's and Jews in the eye with a stick by endorsing the Pro-Hezballah/Hamas Occupations of downtown Toronto as they yell-out death Threats to Canadians, Obama may see how dangerous it is for GM/FORD/Chrysler to stay in canada and risk Plant Closures by Islamists and thugs that start damaging railway line and bridge to the USA.

Obama has already said to the MSM that the $14 Billion Auto bail-out may have a clause to save jobs in America by pulling out some assembly jobs from the USA's Plants in canada.

Remember this day Sid Ryan and Jack Layton because both of you stayed Mute when Liberal MP Parrish kept bashing the UAW members as slacked-jawed idiots that Elected a Moron from Texas , and now Obama was Elected by those same Slacked-jawed idiots that are also still in the UAW.
When Ontario loses 5-10'000 auto jobs because of the CAW and CUPE's hatred for America and Israel , they can all phone Sid and Layton for a bail-out with THEIR money and not OURS.

Check out my NASA posting for a Zero-Gravity version of my fridge for the future space missions , I also have my Canadian web page there and you'll get more info on the Universal design.
My site also posts the IP Application number to see for yourself that I filed under the "Artistic" aesthetic value since I can't Pantent the public invention of the basic refrigerator , I can only get a Industrial-Design for an existing product and then get Utility-Patents for each unique feature .

Poor Sid couldnt get elected so he is using his only power (union rep) as a pulpit.

He is like snot on a screen door.

I went to a 'free' April Wine concert back in the summer here in Pickering (east of Toronto). It was sponsored by CUPE. The actual entrance fee was signing a card with your name and address supporting CUPE. I swallowed my pride and did so at the time - (Hey, I like April Wine). I felt guilty after so I sent a note to Sid, CUPE and Dullton McGuinty saying in effect - "just kidding - nya nya nya nya nya". Twas the least I could do...

Oooo, almost forgot - I got to hear Sidney speak - or shout actually. Yeah, it's a definite case of shortass syndrome.

Alain, thank you for stating so eloquently what I've realized for some time. One of the most significant revelations for me in 2008 was how the Left obscures the truth of their intentions with alternative terms.

Examples:

- anti-Zionist vs. anti-Jewish
- Progressive vs. actually regressive
- Green Shift vs. increased taxes for Westerners
- Human Rights Commission vs. less human rights for non left-wing activists
- Multiculturalism vs. division of cultural groups

I'm sure there are many more others can think of. The golden rule is to be extremely skeptical of any new term introduced by the Left, for it almost always betrays the original meaning.

I wonder if the a$$hat has heard of a little organization called the Mosad?

Does Sid the Vicious think any of those bomb-wearing terrorists would waste five seconds deciding whether or not to chop off his weaselly head? What a useful idiot.

Just a suggestion, Kate, but perhaps you could give 'new' a word budget within which he MUST stay(?)!

Ryan says the appeal came from the "Palestinian Federation of Unions of University Professors and Employees." This union has a president, but nothing else. It is a faux organ.

Dan, I've already been criticized for simply pointing out that new's missives are absolutely unreadable, so good on you to offer that suggestion as well.

Incidentally, there's an interesting phone-in show with Rob Breakenridge in Calgary about Gaza, which you can listen to here, beginning at 8:00.

Do know what facists are? Look in the mirror. Who is looking back at you is a facist. Jews have no buisness being in Isreal. There are black Jews,white Jews and tan Jews. They are a religion not a distinct race of people.

" Jews have no buisness being in Isreal."
Can you say retarded...I knew you could.

Amazing how socialism and anti-semitism can go arm in arm. Wonder what Taliban Jack has to say about CUPE's stance?

Same thing happened at my alma mater, Concordia University in Montreal. Netanyahu was not allowed to speak supposedly because of threats of violence. Yet Palestinian spokesmen were allowed to speak. Either let both sides speak or none should.

Maybe it is time we banned closed union shops and had union votes by secret ballot. How do you like them apples Mr. Ryan?

Look into the mirror if you want to see a 'fascist' yourself.
Using your brilliant grasp of logic, please explain to us why racist troglodyte religious regimes like the Saudis, iranimals and all the other stone age islamic despotic nations get a free pass but you pick on the Jews? I thought islam was a religion too..are you saying it's a race?

ok4ua:

It seems to me that you do not know what fascist even means. Please do some reading before you start throwing the term around.

Why is anybody that questions the acts of the US called "anti-American" and anybody who questions the acts of Israel (a close ally with the US, and heavily supported militarily by the US) called an anti-semite?

There is no proof, other than that from the Israeli government, that Hamas broke the cease fire, or that they've been violent since. Doesn't that make you wonder? Plus they're bombing people who've already been cut off from supplies for quite some time.

For those like Alain and Robert W. who are too lazy or stupid to look things up:

Anti-semitism is prejudice against or hostility toward Jews as a group. The prejudice or hostility is usually characterized by a combination of religious, racial, cultural and ethnic biases.

Anti-Zionism is opposition to the international Jewish political movement that established a homeland for the Jewish People in Palestine and continues to support the state of Israel.

Many Palestinians are both; Sid Ryan appears to be only one (anti-Zionist). But hey, when do facts ever get in the way of a right whinger's argument?

What do you call someone who opposes the religious apartheid states like Saudi Arabia or iran?

So sid likes the hamas orginization? its not the jews, is it sid ,its their darn anti hamas policies right? Did you know sid, that Hamas is an organization that is dedicated to the extermination of all jews.Doesnt that bother you a little bit? Personally I think that sid is a fine example of the ''Peter Principle''. Look it up ,ok sid?
The Israeli's are not calling for the extermination of anyone.They are merely defending themselves from violent attacks by genocidal maniacs, sponsered by Iran and others, like the house of saud.
Eventually ,sad to say, these religous morons will be dealt with.
Unfortunately it will probably be a world war.Many people think that the current state of affairs is a war. It is a conflict certainly but not a world war.
Take a look at pictures of post war Germany or Japan. Thats what a real world war looks like.There is literally nothing left.You would think that they would take a hint,but hatred blinds them.
Should the muslim extreme pests actually detonate a nuclear device in a country friendly to the west , they will then experience the true meaning of war.
The muslim extremists of course, dont have a hope.
Every thing the do ,basically is going to come home to them in ways they didnt think possible.It may take years of blood and terror on the part of hamas and co. but they and their fundamentalist friends will be undone in a most unpleasant fashion.
Please go to Niall Fergusons website and look at his video on the next world war. Third one down on the list.
A glimpse of our future?
Thanks sid for your help on the matter NOT
