But,but,....

Here's a video of today's massive protest. Warning,it contains Libby Davies,an "Occupy' mask,and the organizer shouting through the familiar bullhorn with a '9/11 inside job' sticker on it,and it's from the cbc. I think the 'senate page' makes a cameo,but I'm not sure.

http://www.cbc.ca/video/#/News/Canada/BC/1258521056/ID=2205445522

As expected, its just the usual "MSM/LPC/NDP" war on our Prime Minister

They don't and won't accept the election results, ever. They just don't get it.

Despite their attempts to sling mud on minimalist issues, they don't get one thing.

Canadians care about jobs, taxes, and beer. Anything else is just noise from idiots.

I couldn't stop laughing when I heard someone today insinuate that the protest against Harper here in Vancouver "proves" that Canadians are outraged at the Conservatives.

Excuse me but you can get 500 Leftard Losers of the Rent-A-Crowd ilk in a heartbeat to protest most anything deemed to be anti-conservative or anti-democratic.

This is linked to the by-election in Toronto-Danforth, Layton's former seat. The Liberals and the fundamentalist Liberals think that if they whine and snivel long enough and loud enough Toronto may reward one or the other of these creeps the seat. They may be right, after all this is Toronto.
Hopefully thinking Canadians will prevail but the opposition historically does rather well in by-elections. Time will tell.

Yes Robert the MSM keeps trying to convince Canadians that every time there's a protest, that it is somehow a unique and different group each time.

Funny thing, it's always an NDP crowd, with nothing unique to say, other than they hate Harper/Cons/Bush/Business/Common Sense

Remember, these are the same clowns in the media that brought us globull warming/Y2K/ice age/peak oil/David Suzuki, and the frauds just keep coming. Harrrper just makes lefties sooooo mad, just like the tarrr sands do, and clear cut logging and all the other things that create wealth provide jobs to the useful etc. Why does the media so hate progress and constantly try to champion the dopes of the world?

Liberal nitwit Craig Oliver and his buddies were worried about democracy in Canada because no-one gives a flying fart about the latest media concern. It's funny how intelligent voters can perceive the difference between the Liberals stuffing their pockets with cash and the Conservatives acting responsibly. I suspect if they follow all paths they will find enough dirty tricks to go all around. If a simple phone message can stop a Liberal from voting they can't be all that bright.

Standard procedure for the Media Party and the coalition of losers... 1. Manufacture and run hysterical, hyperbolic smear campaign against the elected Government... 2. Media Party commission polls to see if smear campaign has had desired effect. 3. See 1. and 2.

From a somewhat less partisan viewpoint, I would say that this story lacks clear definition and seems about as likely to be over-hyped, misdirected, or an eventual crisis. Time will tell. By "misdirected" I mean that there is not yet very much clear evidence of which, if any, political party was paying for these particular robo-calls, if they actually happened in any great number.

So it remains to be seen where this story will head. Without evidence, it will remain just a tempest in a tea-pot for the chattering classes. With evidence, it could become something much larger. It seems awfully clumsy by Harper's usual standards and therefore I tend to suspect another patron, somebody more awkward, possibly no longer in the political arena? Time will tell.

Nothing has changed other than the wording on the signs. From anti-war, to AGW to Climate Change to OWS. Marxist at the core and populated by a stock of Useful Idiots, now with the support of the Union executive as they watch their membership dwindle.

Very self important, serious to a fault and useless as teats on a Boar. That about describes the same crew that have been protesting, and protesting and protesting.

I am having some good fun tormenting the Liberals on comment section of the Mop and Pail article.

They (media, libs, NDP [and yes, 'they' is the right word]) jumped the shark. Got into a twitter fight earlier. Everytime I asked for proof, s/he just brought up media allegations. Totally pointless exercise, but they're frothing at the mouth.

I still think we should have a by-election in Guelph as it actually looks like something funny did go down there but I am content to wait for Elections Canada to make a ruling.

Lets see, the opposition forced an election based primarily on the Oda "scandal" they created.

The Libs and NDP forced a non confidence while trailing the incumbent Conservatives by about 11 and 18 percent.

Since no backroom strategist or party eleite in their right mind would ever consider blowing 20 million bucks on such a long shot, it was pretty clear it was just another Banana Republic attempt at a backdoor sedition coaltion.

I thought it a pretty transparently desperate gambit at that time, but the transparent desperation on disply with this latest manufactured scandal really takes the cake.

There truly is no depth the media will not sink to to try to damage Harper.

So wrong for so long, and yet they still have paying jobs.

"I still think we should have a by-election in Guelph as it actually looks like something funny did go down there"

I think there should be a by-election in Guelph because the Liberal trounced the Conservative and that just ain't right.

Listened to Rex Murphy's radio show during my drive home today.
Once again, normal people are miles ahead of the media.
In short....

People agreed that something strange happened in the Guelph riding, but they're not sure what and are looking forward to what Elections Canada turns up.

Everything else?
Whatever.

Remember when Kady told Evan that she could organize a mob in 5 minutes via twitter and face book. Could she be behind all this faux scanda. lol
Would be great for the RCMP to use its facial recognition software to identify those at the so called protest yesterday. Bet we would see the same faces at the T.O riots and Vancouver riots.

Something funny did happen in Guelph and it was evident to all who were paying attention. Complaints came in at the time. Not against Conservatives, as they were the ones doing the complaining about the irregularities surrounding campus "voting" with very lax behaviour about the rules and the real possibility of "further" voting by students when they went home.
Especially when this was ENCOURAGED by none other than that twit comedian on the cbc Mercer!-
That the NDP ended up with 103 seats should be enough evidence of voter fraud and hanky panky for even the most befuddled among us. ( not to be confused with "fuddle duddle" of another era!)

@ DanBC at March 4, 2012 11:53 PM.

Other than the omission of hockey, bang on.

@ everyone

Protesting has become a hobby on the left. They all have a cause. No matter how trivial.

I guess they're not responsible enough to be trusted with coins or stamps,

I'll submit that if individuals in the employ of a certain tax payer supported media organization are found to be involved in a scheme to overturn or subvert the electoral process, or even actions that resulted in acts of treason, that the result be decided by the punishment that the protesters are screaming for.
Lets review:
Vote mob
Vote compass
Invite to a police raid on CPC offices, not extended to other media outlets.
Refusal to comply with ATI requests
Broadcasting electoral results in violation of electoral laws
Using a liberal MP to feed questions to a parliamentary committee

That list seems to be a bit more substantial than reports of crank calls.

Call it "counting the reasons to defund".

You have to wonder when the media will start talking about the sizable role the media plays in all of these 'gates'?
It's been said that the Parliamentary Press Gallery hates Harper, so much so that they're absolutely giddy with glee every time they report on a new 'gate', and then they wonder why everyone in the rest of Canada largely ignores them.

The media esp,our beloved CBC has skin in the game amd they are involved. If you are planning a protest they will promote it by working it into a story,or as in the leadnow petition,they will put up a direct link to it.

They will then show up and report on your protest.

FIRE.THEM.ALL.

Dear Babysitter.

Show me the concrete evidence this was #CPC. Wishing doesn't make it so.

Please.

Anything at all would be great.

Blinded by their childish hatred for Harper, the major media outlets and talking heads sprouted into full uproar without fact checking or using any level of journalistic common sense.

They look like complete idiots. They act like total fools.

Because they are and Harper continues to treat them with the dismissive scorn and contempt they deserve.

A manufactured national freak out by the Liberal MSM PPG Robocall is a bogus scandal that severely normal Canadains dont give a sh%^ about.

Franky Graves the Liberal Pollster was first out of the gate with a bogus poll underestimating conservative support by his standard 5 points to as usual attempt to form puplic opinion .

I would predict that Conservative support would still be around 40% if an election were held today regardless of what the dynamic dou at the Ottawa Citizen want.

Baby sitter will be busy changing a few liberal dirty diapers after the Naonos Poll

The MSM (consensus media) and the left are desperate to regain political power , and they are appalled at the prospect of 3 more years of Conservative rule , with a very likely 2nd term.

The left ,instead of working effectively in opposition to honestly critique government policies has resorted to futile attempts to bring down the majority government , merely because they don't like the election result , and somehow cling to the idea that they can install a coalition government.

... and the MSM follows right along like the faithful lapdogs they are.

I don't expect the left to change their tactics , but at some point it must become evident to the MSM they are flogging a dead horse and will lose readership ... one would think ... but perhaps not.

Another day another manufactured crisis by the pathalogical manipulators in our political class and their presstitutes. Yawn!

You's think you'd see popular support for these chicken-little politics dwindling as fast as dino media subscribership - I mean, they are both involved in the great lie which more and more people are waking up to.

Steven you are so mean, have you no feelings for the retarded liberal mob. All they know is the simple instinct to follow, it is not their fault, with the passing of their great messiah's Peeair and Jack they have been at a loss of direction and like a giant herd of angry pigs they snort and charge at every conservative. Conservatives usually don't see the attack coming because they are head down in work and producing wealth, jobs, and a better world while the angry mob pigs just run, raging on against anything constructive, running and squealing, with the reckless abandon that is their hallmark.

The Avaaz and occupy movement and liberal media can't deal with the Conservatives being in power, expect four more years of the media creating if not actually constructing fake media scandals to ensure the media's choice of PM get's elected. That would be Rae.

"And Dimitri Soudas, whose girlfriend employed the stooge the Tories tossed under the bus for the Guelph robo-calls, says the Tories deliberately target people who don't know anything about politics and who, to simplify things a bit, aren't too swift". -The Babysitter.
So in other words, Libtards? Got it.

BS'er: "It's about people going to prison for election fraud."

You're thinking Layton is alive?

Nobody cares. All sides lie and we all know that. We don't trust any of them. We simply vote for the lessor of the evils (in our own opinions).

Many are brain-washed and don't know why they vote the way they do.
Many are retarded and vote the way their care givers tell them to. Many are criminals and vote for the most judicially lenient of them.
Many are stupid and don't know where or how to go and vote.

In the end a minority of us wind up electing a bunch of self-interested politicians.

Then we go and see what's on TV.

What is galling, even for the CBC is to complain for a week now about the CPC trying to influence the election by illegal means. It is they who flagrantly broke the rules broadcasting results in Eastern Canada while the polls remained open in provinces further west. There is no doubt who committed this illegal act, it was the CBC. There is all kinds of doubt just who Pierre Poutine is.
The CBC has never even been charged with the offence. Maybe JP Kingsley is his endless rounds of CBC interviews would care to comment on this.

Much of this is pure socialist propaganda. So far there is no case. That somebody somewhere said something sometimes does not qualify.
It is interesting to note that the election was in May of 2011, until very recently, nobody complained.
It seems that the socialists had to coordinate their story with the mass media to the maximum impact.
The "journalists" don't ask questions that would interfere with the memo. You see they must write of necessity to make the paper, television program and radio program to make a lot of room to sell stuff.
If they did not spin, the paper maybe full of ads and no story. Not that there is nothing to write about, it is just that it would require actual work. It may not be the fault of the "journalists". Simply, the "news" organizations are not willing to put out money to see what's the story, where the case may be that there is really nothing to write about.
Media business today is not so much about the news as it is about thrash as the stuff can be commonly described. It is a business in business to make money. How they make it does not really matters. Not necessarily anything wrong with that, the only thing is that they should say so and let real news take over the news.

Can't find the story now. In The Calgary Herald last week, there was a story where one lady (there was a name to her) called a complaint.
Conservative apparatchik from one of the ridings asked the question, why would they spend money, phone anybody, do anything so stupid, where a conservative candidate got 20K votes more than the next whatever it was, Liberal, socialist or what have you.

It may be that these things happen, they should look into Liberal and socialist campaigns, those are more likely than anyone else to do underhanded, cheating, bribing since its their nature to do that.

Facts of life are conservative. Liberal, socialists, fascists are wholly made up stuff to serve their own purposes as opposed to the public good.

Listen to them whine like stuck pigs about someone’s little brother making a few prank phone calls from his basement cave on election day.

But when it comes to Obamba and Acorn collecting hundreds of thousands of dead people’s votes, it’s nothing but crickets from the left.

What a bunch of pathetic losers.

Liberal Party of Canada? Where'd they go? I don’t know maybe they’re here, no maybe their over there, oh I know their under the bed over there...............LOL.

Interesting article. Does it really take a genius to figure out that people who are as diverse as Muslims, Africans, etc would ever get along...Heck families have trouble getting along and they are all from the same seed.

I like the lefties saying that multicultralism is great as it produces a society that is vibrant, open and cosmopolitan, etc...what the heck does that mean. The people from these cultures have nothing in common with Westerners, no identity whatsoever, so how can they get along....How can English people marry Muslims...nope....but they easily assimilate with white people from different cultures because they have the same values.

We can contribute all of these problems to lefties, Liberals, socialist, lawyers, unions, etc. We see these different groups every day supporting these so called diverse groups..... unions supporting PLO, Immigration lawyers supporting terrorists at the expense of Canadians, etc.

I hope that when the big battle comes, someone it out there recording the names of the people who enabled these terrorists to commit their crimes in Canada and other western countries.

Mr. Harper...stop immigration from these countries now.....I will let you in on a little secret....Canadians dont want these people.

To this Canuck the entire affair is like water running off a duck's back. Yawwwwwwwwwn.

Here's hoping that when the air clears, the facts come out, there will be socialists and Liberals as the guilty party.

I will gladly be guilty of what the germans call schadenfreude..

My comment was in regards to robocalls. I agree with Mike's immigration comment.

I think what this is revealing is the very serious problem within the Liberal and NDP parties of their refusal to develop policies and programs. Instead, they focus on manufacturing an emotional connection to the electorate.

The Liberals, under Trudeau and Chretien, long ago abandoned any policy and program platform. Instead, they manipulated the electorate into robotics (yes, I mean that word) voting Liberal, by using emotional tactics.

Multiculturalism divided Ontario and particularly Toronto, the largest vote population, into adversarial closed blocs. The Liberals subsidized these blocs with massive grants - in return for bloc votes.

Nationally, Chretien used other emotional strategies to bring voters in - an endless campaign of anti-Americanism, constant grants to special interest groups (public service, students, immigrants). In Quebec, there was his illegal scam of using taxpayer money to fund the Liberal election campaign (happily ignored and forgotten by the Liberals and our media of today).

The NDP were trapped in an outdated and irrelevant set of policies and platforms. Jack Layton took over and by the sheer force of his personality rather than any electoral interest in the NDP policies - increased the NDP seats. But this is a transient gain.

So, both parties, and in particular, the Liberals, are refusing to act in a mature fashion and develop a set of coherent policies to appeal to the voter. Instead - they are doing the usual; appealing to emotions.

It is interesting that the only emotion they ever use is: hatred. Multiculturalism rests on hatred of Not-Us; and then, there's anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, anti...whatever.

Instead, we see Harper and the CPC working within clear and articulated policies and programs - for the good of Canada. Not for electoral votes. Remember his taxing of Investments - something which he had at first said he wouldn't do, and then, explained that he had to because of abuse of the system? Well, this was deeply unpopular; the Liberals and NDP jumped on it with shrieks of 'he lied'. But Harper chose to be 'unpopular' rather than focus only on His Votes - for the good of the country. Not himself.

And we see Harper and the CPC working to develop Canadian national pride - not as a population who identify themselves only in the negative (anti-American, anti-war, anti-industry)...but with an expanding awareness of our history. Harper's focus on the war of 1812, his focus on the North, his change in immigration policies to include more awareness of Canadian history - all definitely un-Liberal.

So- can the Liberals and NDP mature into genuine political parties with clear policies and programs, or will they continue to act like three year olds having a tantrum because they aren't first with the ice cream.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned one blindingly obvious anomaly here: why now in March 2012?

The election was held in May 2011. If this robocall activity was seemingly so widespread, why did it take 10 months for 31,000 people to take notice and complain?

Why wasn't there an massive uproar about this during and right after the election?

Are Canadians so dim that it took nearly a year from them to complain?

This whole uproar about nothing has Buffalo Bob and the CBC s sticky fingerprints all over it.The current version of the NDP doesn t have anyone smart enough to to think this up but they will make useful followers or fillers.

Buffalo Bob needs this in order to keep his name and face on TV and in news papers,he wants to get that Lieberal leadership job so bad he can taste it.Of course his buddies at the Communist Broadcasting Corporation, who have always enjoyed compliant Lieberal leaders, will do all they can to be of help.

Now we get reports of increased voting in the ridings where the Foaming at the Mouth media at CBC, CTV et al having being screaming about voting suppression.

You would think tht for $1.3 Billion annually, the CBC could afford a dictionary so they could look up the meaning of suppress.

Our major Canadian media outlets . . . plumbing new depths of stupidity and fear mongering as they grovel in the depths of the cesspool.

Demands of new elections by the Liberals and NDP because of concerns that legions of their supporters were unduly influenced by robocalls, and were prevented from voting, raises a lot of issues. Do the Liberals and NDP have a disproportionate number to other parties, of gullible voters, that humongous numbers can be so easily influenced to go to the wrong polling station, when every one of them received a card from elections Canada telling them where to vote?

Can a case be made for Ignatieff, that he was robbed of a chance to become Prime Minister of Canada, because of this purported deceit, and accede to the Liberal demand that Ignatieff should be given the opportunity to once again lead the Liberals in another election and to victory ? Is it possible that Stephane Dion was also a victim, and he should be re-installed as Liberal Party leader and given a second chance to take the Party to victory - is there any other reason why Dion still sits amongst that ungrateful group on the Liberal benches?

Were the NDP denied their opportunity to realize the full potential of electoral success, because hordes of their supporters in their confusion, were denied the opportunity to vote, or did the NDP fall short because Canadians, who discovered that their esteemed leader Jack Layton patronized houses of ill repute, which Layton referred to as Community Clinic in a B.C. speech, and which employed under age Oriental girls, decided to cast their ballot elsewhere.

We need answers to these questions and others before the country should be thrown into another costly 300 million dollar election.

JJM, I mentioned that at the outset. Obviously the leftist troops have been given their marching orders. A concerted effort to smear PMSH and the CPC.

'Something funny did happen in Guelph and it was evident to all who were paying attention. Complaints came in at the time. Not against Conservatives, as they were the ones doing the complaining..' posted by Snowbunny@2:27

Funny how the media never mentions this..fair and balanced? The CBC/CTV should be sued for claiming to be something they are not: a 'News' organization; they are a pinko arm of the Bolshevic propaganda team.

Bartinky - I agree with most of what you said but the clear cut logging was a Dipper idea - the Dippers in BC courted the union vote of the lumber industry so they allowed great swaths of forest to be cut in a cost efficient manner; clear cutting and low stumpage fees allowed the BC forest products to sell to China and still pay union wages to saw mill workers...for a little while.

Today unstable mountainsides are collapsing onto roads and houses because the forest floor relies on trees for stability. The Dippers never think or plan or care about tomorrow - they are wild eyed zealots with no rational thought process, IMO.

The more I think about it the less I am convinced that the robocalls were due to any Canadian party. It is plausible to me that some foreign entity, particularly one in the US, would pay large amounts of money to delegitimise the Conservative government and destabilise the country. Consider, after all, the large amounts that Sierra Club, Greenpeace etc. are spending on the Gateway hearing. Consider the large amounts that these entities are spending on advertising. And it does seem more like a half-baked Yank trick than anything homegrown. The Libs waged an inept campaign for sure but it wasn't quite as batty as the robocalls.

I do like the new Egyptian gov'ts treatment of NGOs. We should emulate it.

Wow about 2 Canadains showed up at the Robo call election Fraud Rally today on Parliment Hill

Featuring outraged Liberal MP Wayne doorknob Easter , Pat im getting sued Martin the Loud mouth Schnok, and Granny May

The crowd size does not appear to reflect the MSM PPG Media rage

There must be some mistake?

Steven,Carole McNeil on cbc just now interviewed some loon that organized the new 'protest group'..group would be a somewhat generous label for the small mindless pack that showed up! Even she (with her best nose-turned-up sneer) seemed incredulous when the maroon stated there is a 'huge groundswell of support' when directly over his shoulder we see a small,wee bunch! But,the BEST excuse the toad could come up with for the poor turnout..to a cbc host/enviro whacko .."it's cold out!" Quick! Get Suzuki on that now...get some global-warming,so we can get bigger crowds!!

Sammy, this just in: '@aaronleewudrick: The guy currently on CBC representing "Canadians Against Electoral Fraud" was also a spokesperson for Occupy Ottawa.'

Like I said, _they_ is the right word.

And another gem from the sneering snout of Carole McNeil: "Coming up.. Question Period..likely to be hotter than the protests on Parl.Hill!!" HUH? That's 'hot' Carole? A small handful of lunatics is hot? Starting to sound a bit like Paris Hilton!!

I think that Breitbart nailed it. They're the same bunch for everything that is anti-American, Canadian, Industry, and the list goes on. Always the usual suspects, generally financed by the same people and using a hundred different names to appear greater than the sum total involved. Nasty folks, headed by Obama in the WH.

Like I said in the past about this, let's give them what they want. Let's have another election and let the wicked, evil, conservatives enlarge the majority.

On CBC McNeil and Barton on QP, continue to spout the official line of 30,000 protests to EC.
Accuse the CPC of muddying the waters and confusing them! Mention calls for an independent enquiry and constantly mention CBC and robocalls in the same breath. A disgrace to journalism, both of them.

The opposition could've had an easy time hammering on Bill C-30, which alienated many of the CPC partisans, but noooooo they wanted to focus on a scandal nobody cares about. How Liberal.

The Three Amigos' Coalition and their toadies in the Consensus Media staged this pathetic attempt at a coup for their benefit only: They have ringside seats -- and the rest of the theatre is empty.

In all of the comments no-one has mentioned the biggest election fraud foisted on the Canadian public during the last election and that was Jack Layton running for office even though he was suffering from (terminal) cancer. Then there was the election fraud by the Liberals when they parachuted Iggy into the Etobicoke riding over the wishes of the local riding executive. The Liberals,NDP and CBC are like vampires, when they look in the mirror there is no reflection!!!

“Mr. Harper...stop immigration from these countries now.....I will let you in on a little secret....Canadians dont want these people.”

That may be true, but here’s another little secret – They don’t care.

Of course the leadership of our western countries know that multiculturalism & open borders will eventually tear any country apart. They lull everyone into thinking that they are simply incompetent fools too stupid to see the obvious. No one is that stupid.

Once that reality is accepted you then understand that there is a deliberate, organized, global shakedown of western capitalist societies economically and politically.
