  1. Heh heh – “Cash” what an ironic handle – you can’t make stuff like this up, reality just keeps getting more and more sardonic.

  3. Maybe Cash is a specialist, you know the kinky kind of stuff, like baby oil and latex, or simply a pimp, that draws in kiddies, like the BBC gang.

  4. As you regulars here at SDA know,there is no one on earth who loved Jack Layton more than I did,and still do. (Sob)
    But, while I can see their casting a minor porn star as Olivia, I am deeply concerned about the depiction of my patron Saint by a third rate hack. Ron Jeremy has just been released from hospital,and his body of work would indicate there’s no one else who could bring sufficient “meat” to the role of Jack Layton.
    So, CBC, wise up and contact Ron ASAP,and let’s get this show on the tube!
    My suggested title for the movie”Jack Layton, Patron Saint of Rub N’ Tug”.
    After this movie is released,the NDP will sweep to victory with a majority to form government. The day after the election, voters will suddenly awaken to the fact they’ve voted for a legendary dead guy,and the ugly reality is Libby Davies and Thomas Mulcair.
    At which point I’m moving to the land of the comparatively free,Cuba.

  5. Phil, this is your notice that any more off topic comments will be deleted without warning. Including the ones on this page, along with the responses.

  6. Kady OMalley is reporting nothing to see here… the Ethics Commissioner;
    “While the Commissioner looks into any matter where a concern is brought to our attention in relation to any obligation under the Conflict of Interest Code for Members of the House of Commons, she has not launched a preliminary review as she has no reason to believe that the Code has been contravened. ”
    My take, no complaint has been filed yet…

  8. Andrew Cash is batship crazy. His columns in NOW magazine put him to the left of George Galloway. Long timers around here may remember Jeff Davidson who used to pop in to provide the Toronto metrosexual perspective on things; he and Cash are/were buddies.
    I do however approve of Cash’s new nerdy accountant look.

  10. Damned Phil…leading us astray!
    But back to the CBC/NDP incest.
    How is it that you can explain this conflict of interest stuff to a 10 year old, and they get it – but adult politicians don’t?
    And how I wish I cold say that this was only a malaise of the left.

  12. “….The day after the election, voters will suddenly awaken to the fact they’ve voted for a legendary dead guy,and the ugly reality is Libby Davies and Thomas Mulcair….”
    In a sequel???? 😉 You’re a sick man, dmorris.
    Don’t care how philosophically joined the In Deepers and Commie TV are – CBC wouldn’t broadcast that one…not even in truly liberated Quebec.
    Sorry, NDPiste.

  13. I am beginning to have a growing respect for the mob, at least they are upfront about their ambitions and you have a CHOICE if you want to snuggle that low in life. But not the CBC.
    A CBC employee writes a column that clears an mp of conflict of interest in a case involving the CBC and the MP in question who (receives 40 G’s a year from the CBC.) who voted and debated matters pertaining to the cbc and it’s funding…
    Shocker….. and to think they have the fed gov as their strong arm henchmen to shake down the people.
    Open their books, expose their corruption and close that pig down.

  15. I don’t know if he is a CBC whore or a pimp, or maybe both at the same time. The line is blurred.
    Occam, you got that right, “Cash”, the name fits.
    No doubt he will get away with this.

  16. Don’t you mean, “NDP whore”?
    Ron Jeremy, who does have a few brains, could probably do a reasonable enactment of Thomas Mulcair; but might come across as too intelligent.

  17. 787 Dundas St W and CBC headquarters – One is a place full of whores and pimps who do business with people with questionable moral character, gathering any evidence they can to blackmail people for their connected higher up crime bosses and the other used to be a massage parlor.

  18. With an “Ethics Commissioner” …. they’re free to do as they please and simply point and say the “person responsible for my personal responsibility said it was ok”?
    Is the honorable member a 12 year old?

  19. The Calgary CBC has a secure foyer, nobody in without an invite. Consequence of broadcast content?
    I’d like to see the conservatives introduce “moonlighting” legislation for all MP’s/Senators. They have a generous entitlement package which should rule out any “work” outside of being an elected/appointed official.
    Most employers expect employees to be focussed on the job, why these folks?

  20. On one hand, I’m glad to see that there is someone in the NDP who believes in property rights, if only his own.
    On the other hand, it’s sad, don’t you think, that we even need a “parliamentary ethics commissioner”? Sadder still, isn’t it, that the “parliamentary ethics commissioner”‘s role has degenerated in such short order into “providing cover for whatever you want to get away with commissioner”? Twice now in a week — Mr. Trudeau and now Mr. Cash: on that basis alone, I find Mr. McCallum’s objection to Mr. Cash’s behaviour to be a bit risible, but, then again, John has always been in a category of his own.
    Apparently, any hair-splitting response letter you get from the “parliamentary ethics commissioner” can be thrown in everybody’s face to obscure anything you have done, even if what you’ve done is contrary to what you told the “parliamentary ethics commissioner” you were going to do in the lead-up to the hair-splitting response letter.
    Here’s an idea: if you are a member of the most senior legislature in the country, don’t take money (other than the regular salary and associated benefits to which you are entitled) from taxpayer-funded organizations or institutions. At any level. Period. And if, on an MP’s or Senator’s salary, you can’t afford the lifestyle to which you have become accustomed, don’t be an MP or a Senator. Beyond that, debate and vote however you like, or say nothing at all — the former of which applies to Mr. Cash, who at least showed up to debate and vote, whereas Mr. Trudeau (to whom the latter applies) couldn’t even be bothered to not be AWOL from his job requirements while he was taking taxpayer money.
    There are times when I think that the plutocratic parliamentarians of yesteryear were much superior to the money-grubbing, fish-mongering train-wrecks we see now.

  21. The ease with which this NDPee hack breaks his word, and then ARGUES about why its perfectly acceptable to break his word, without showing even the least embarrassment over having given his word and broken it… with the full support of the CBC and the rest of his party… this is truly a sign of exactly how corrupt the NDPee is.
    You give your word, you keep it. Thems the rules in polite society.

  22. Kady has updated her column. I don’t know what was in the original,but from my vantage point (and I love the CBC too) Mr. Cash may lose this one if it gers to that point.

  23. Is anyone else beginning to wonder about the ethics of the ethic commissioner? Who exactly is this mary dawson and what is her connection to Kady O Malley?
    It is beginning to appear that Mary Dawson has set different rules for Conservatives as compared to Liberal and NDP MPs.

  24. Seeing as Kady O’Malley is nothing more than a CBC **ore herself, methinks she can damned well stop being a mouthpiece and cheerleader for the Ethics Commissioner who’s not doing her job if she hasn’t launched a preliminary review because ” … she has no reason to believe that the Code has been contravened.”
    It’s as clear as the nose on anyone’s face that the Conflict of Interest Code has most definitely been contravened. Since when is the Ethics Commissioner given leeway to make judgments based on what she “believes” or doesn’t believe? Facts are facts, Kady.
    What the hell is O’Malleable — easily influenced; pliable — talking about?

  25. The problem is the use of the word “ethics”.
    Moral – knowing it is wrong to want to have sex with your neighbour’s wife,so you don’t.
    Ethics – knowing it is wrong to want to have sex with your neighbour’s wife,but you do anyways.

  26. Just went to Kady’s blog.
    She hasn’t exactly helped the reading public to understand the issues. She’s got lots and lots of quotes from the Ethics Commission’s conflict of interest regulations, courtesy of “the indefatigable David Akin,” but has done very little to enlighten her readers. O’Malleable’s left all of the hard work to us.
    In addition, after quoting the Commissioner’s very clear ruling to Cash — “In this instance, your contract with the CBC is considered a private interest and as a result, Section 13 prohibits you from participating in debate or from voting on matters specifically related to CBC’s funding or plans and priorities that may affect your private interests.” — Kady immediately brings up the issue of a possible conflict of interest last fall of seven grain-farming Conservative MPs and the Wheat Board.

    Uh huh, Kady. The issue at hand is the NDP, not the CPC. But I guess working at the CBC requires knee-jerk negative comments about the Conservatives, even when it’s the NDP we’re talking about.

  27. What’s his name, the Heritage minister, should also be tossed on general principles.
    Put someone in there with orders to get the CBC slimmed down, shined up, sold off,
    by the end of the year.

  28. E.Jack U. Layton
    In Memory of Ernest Jack Underhill Layton who smarmed and cadged his way to the top of the tard chart.
    If you need to sniffle please use a memorial kleenex and add it to the commemorative collective pile.
    That’s what an interactive memorial should state.

  29. Could someone help me here, the “Hockey night in Canada” tune was discontinued on the CBC because the originator wanted a bigger fee. Anybody here remember that. CBC cancelled the contract to save money or whatever. Guess the Vancouver composer of HNIC wasn’t in a position of power to benefit the CBC, eh!

  31. Isn t it ironic that the two biggest offenders of slurping up easily accessed taxpayer dollars are named True-Dough and Cash.
