Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

Kate, did you see the following:
http://www.canadafreepress.com/2005/cover050905.htm
This link supposedly contains a very damaging video on Paulie M., also from Canada Free Press and also relating to the post you just put up re the water thing.
I have been unable to view the video so far for annoying technical reasons. Wonder if you or anyone else may have better luck?
Ah, I finally succeeded. Simply downloaded a free codec whose link is provided along with the video file itself.
Let me know if you have seen the video.
It shows how Martin’s handlers treated the nonapproved independent Canadian press people relative to the approved CP.
The whole thing was carefully orchestrated and executed for Paul to have perfect photo ops without embarrassment. There was some physical intimidation of a cameraman, who seemed to be the narrator, as well as others.
BTW, Jack (The 4.6 Billion Dollar Man) Layton was right there smilingly looking on as Paulie pompously drank from a big bottle of the water of Zenon. Jacko seemed to be fine with all the intimidation of Canadians trying to record the visit in a free manner as befits Canadian citizens. Looks to me like the self-proclaimed champion of human rights thinks its fine to suspend our Charter rights outside our borders. Jack and Paul may be closer than we’ve been thinking…
I can’t see video on my own computer – but I know others have had problems. Try searching the archives – I’m sure it was discussed in the earlier post on Martin’s tsunami photo op.
I don’t know if Strong was at the event – that’s the sort of low profile he cultivates. He’s from Oak Lake, Man., and I gather he returns from time to time for town reunions and so on – but you’d never know it. I work in the media here, and apart from one other well-read colleague, no one else I work with has a clue about who MS really is, and they seem no have no interest in the oil-for-food scandal, either. Doesn’t fit the script.
Oh, never mind. I had the presence of mind to do a search on Zenon and found a previous posting re the video in question.
Duhh… now I know how Terry Milewski feels.
Plus I think I’m getting too tired now to stay up any longer, which would explain my embarrassing little brainfart above… ๐
Just saw CMP’s post. Wow, a media insider telling us that his colleagues there could give a raccoon’s ass who MS is or about the oil-for-food scandal. Interesting.
Bet they don’t give a floating Oh Henry! that Gurmant Grewal did nothing wrong.
This only serves to deepen my contempt for the MSM, excluding, of course, CMP and his intelligent colleague.
In regards to CMP, Strong was at the award ceremony. His picture was on the front page of the Free Press on Saturday with the other recipients.
I had no idea he was from Manitoba.
Does anybody out there in blogland have a photo of those water purifiers we sent to Sri Lanka? I seem to recall reading something to the effect that they were so large and bulky that we had to hire heavy haulers from Russia to transport them.
(That may account for the fact that it cost well over 20 million dollars to send a DART team of around thirty people for a period of one month?)
But, what the hell- it is only our tax money, and there is plenty more where that came from…..
“Uncle Moe” Strong rose from the same spawning bed ( in north Winterpig) as Canada’s other profiteering mobsters the Bronfmans. Like the Bronfmans Moe has sanitized his sordid dealings in the past and present with the instant respectability being part of the status-quo Ottawa Corporate-political patronage cartel affords…Moe went the extra step of wrapping his global profiteering and social engineering schemes in the UN flag. He would love to have us think he is a true globalist humanitarian…like the Bronfman carel does with it’s paltry charity efforts ( as it stuffs billions of tax payer subsidized cash in it’s pockets).
The Desmarais-PMO corporate patronage cartel is deeply entreched and it is gratifying to see it exposed…if even in an alternate media. When I first started making people aware of this unholy alliance between Canada;s PMO and wealthy Quebec business magnets, I was dismissed as a conspiracy fruit fly.
Dianne Francis in the financial Post was the only MSM Journalist that took a run at the Powercor-PMO cartel and she was silenced….not a peep from the MSM on the Powercor connection to Canada’s executive power ever since….but that’s another story and this is Kate’s site so she should do the honors of digging into that one.
Before the Desmarais Cartel their was the Bronfman cartel who controlled both PC and Liberal party leadership. They still keep their hand in…if you want you can rummage about in the background of Eddie Goldenberg from the Cret’s PMO …it will prove interesting.
As for the conflicts of interest between the Liberal government and powercor players, it has been frequent and long running. It also seems well known to the opposition from Quebec:

“Dave” FYIL Check out the cananda free press video on Martin’s Tsunami photo op…he’s seen chugging a bottle of Zenon water and even gives the little woman a slug from it…then he does an impromtu sales pitch for “Uncle Moe’s” zenon holdings….quite kitsch to say the least…then again, these PMO Librano corporate shills will belly crawl in the slime with the foulest mud-dwelling invertibrates.
You go get the bastards, Dubya El!
Neither of us is a “conspiracy fruit fly”!
We’re just regular Canadian patriots like most people here at SDA.
THIS IS OUR COUNTRY!
NO MORE CORRUPTION!
Stephen, I’m going to order a masseuse for you, just to help you settle down a little. Relax, dude.
LOL… ๐
Why, thank you, Kate. Is she Swedish, BTW?
Not to worry. Everything’s cool.
Slept like a baby last nite. Feel great.
Love that sense of humor of yours. ๐
Neither Strong nor the Bronfmans came out of North Winnipeg. He’s from Oak Lake. They got started in Brandon and got serious in Yorkton, Sask. No doubt both spent time in Winnipeg. It’s hard not to if you’re doing serious business on the eastern prairie, and it was a good deal harder then. But that’s not where they were from.
PM Martin sure has an effective Teflon covering. He makes many a political blunder like this realatively minor water swigging fiasco. The MSM is a non-critic.
Martin fires Canadian CSL crews and hires and registeres through Barbados. Corporate taxes are lowered to 2.8 % in Barbados.
The MSM is again, a non-critic.
By the way, Martin must read the National Post. I have seen 1 inch box ads by Tax lawyers offering minimizing tax set up services in Barbados.
An interesting tax ad is on page FP7 July 9/05 By DioGuardi & Co. They offer to get you off the hook easily for past unreported taxes. They used to work for the government.
All these white collar tax avoidance services and schemes cost somebody great gobs of money. And, you and I are that *somebody*.
Can the Bank of America corp. cost you money? Absolutly!
The Bank of America recently bought Fleet Boston Financial for 48 Billions of dollars.
That is not good news, but worse, they are now buying MBNA Bank for 35 Billions.
Bad news? You kidding? Do interest rates rise? That’s how B of A giant gets their money back. We collectively work for them.
Toronto Dominion recently took over Canada Trust. I soon after closed my accounts there because service tanked. They closed my in town branch. Gas costs to go to the one main branch were a service charge I refused to pay.
Also, statements from Canada Trust were always up to date. Within a day or two, but with Toronto Domion they were from three to four weeks late. Goodbye TD!
Corporate combines are bad news. Why do we allow it to go beyond reason?
There should be a law! 73s TG
Tony, too bad that right now, Paul Martin himself makes the laws!
