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."

You must be a Liberal if you help the firing squad to load the guns for your own appearance.
Just read Terry Milewski’s bit about JT’s China remarks. It’s little more than “Yah well Harper does it too so nyah!”
http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/justin-trudeau-applauds-china-but-then-so-does-stephen-harper-1.2422068
I suspect his next column will feature the “I know you are but what am I?” defence.
PM Harper must say a silent prayer every night thanking God for the gift of Justin Trudeau. The CPC doesn’t need to write attack ads against him as JT is providing them all the material they could ever need.
I noticed that his recent comments have not reached the “greatness” of earlier ones. He needs to step it up a notch!

Just In Turd’O, the LAS of politics
Can’t you leave this poor lad alone, he is struggling with the increased homework load of ninth grade.
snowboarding without a helmet?
meeting with Ross Rebagliati for a dinner and a joint.?
maybe he is starting to short out his brain like his mom, find him cowering in a hedge somewhere. CBCpravda will not report it.Im surprised they didnt bring up his papa and his commie bros rewrite of papas China book.
Was wondering when someone would compile a list like this.
How many press scrums and ladies nights till greatest hits Vol 2?
The “shine” is coming off the Pony.
Martin, Dion, Iggy and now Justine.
Thank you, Lord.
It’s great entertainment to mock this clueless idiot and, being as hopeless as he is, he’s an easy target and, without a doubt, not PM material even by Liberal standards.
However, unless one visits this site or tunes in to Sun News, the story is not getting out. CBC coverage is a prime example of how to downplay or, even worse, completely ignore Trudeau’s multiple gaffes in a desperate attempt to minimize or hide his many shortcomings from the voting public. Unfortunately for Canada, with the media running interference, even this dismal cretin has a shot, albeit a long one, at being PM.
The paparazzi we call the MSM are getting tired of covering for Jr. cracks are emerging, they’re starting to turn on each other with competing spin…sit back and enjoy the show…
Even Mulcair, who has the most to lose is probably thanking the shiny pony for every gaff, because even if Mulcair has the personality of a dead fish, all he has to do is shut up and let Justin keep digging himself into a hole. By the time the election rolls around there should be enough attack ad ammo to make Justin look like a assistant drama coach instead of a prime minister in waiting. Still, dead fish against good hair…., should be a fair match up. I doubt if Harper is losing any sleep at this point.
You all may snicker at his ignorance and miscues (as they are numerous) but, quite frankly, he scares me. He scares me because the average slightly-engaged voter could (and some will) fall for his charismatic expulsion of verbal diarrhea. I would wager that there are fair number of somewhat intelligent voters who, right now, think Shiny Pony is the White Stallion. And when they get a chance to mark an ‘X’ next to the Liberal candidate’s name will have a little tingle go up their legs. Appallingly to me, my own mother is one. She loves the way Obama orates, too. And her vote counts just as much as mine. It’s maddening. FFS
The way to get the Shiny Pony totally unhinged is to offer him a large supply of cannabis very high in THC and with a nonexistent CBD content. Given that he has his mothers brains, and likely her bipolar genes, this is the pharmacologic Rx for a meltdown. CBD doesn’t get people high but acts as a mood stabilizer and antipsychotic. The very high THC strain might flip him into a manic state and, given his rudimentary intellect, he would probably engage in impulsive actions that even the CBC couldn’t cover up. Low IQ manics are unable to formulate any policies and he would come across as an idiot. In such a state he might choose Dr Fruitflies maggot hierarchy as the basis of the lieberal platform. He would still get the female pneumocephalic vote, but until brain CT’s are required of putative voters, pneumocephalics can vote.
Sadly, the list does not include Mr. Trudeau, Jr.’s equally inarticulate and partially-born proposal for (to date) two new taxes — one economy-wide (a carbon tax) and one sectoral (a pot tax).
Leaving aside the workability and/or economic impact of either, I am curious to know how much extra money he thinks he’ll raise and what he plans to do with the extra cash. “Raplass da JST?” Transfer the money to China in some fashion, either via a UN intermediary or directly, so that “his most admired” foreign state can continue to expand its pollution? Expand the size of the federal government sector through a combination of hiring, crony capitalism and entitlement programs, thereby re-invigorating the traditional Liberal tactic of voter adherence through dependency? What?
In making this proposal for new taxes, Mr. Trudeau, Jr., who’s the 2013 poster-boy for the path of least resistance, hasn’t even bothered to trouble himself with fictional Dalton McGuinty-esque commitments not to increase the tax burden.
While we all have a field day with the latest vacuous remarks by Justin, my question is; who are the people who will really run this Country if he’s ever elected PM?
There is no way in hell the LPC backers, some of Canada’s richest and most powerful families and corporations,would allow a clueless pretty face like Trudeau to actually do anything,so may I speculate that the usual suspects (Power Corp., Bombardier,the Big Five Banks,Bronfmans,McCains,Irvings,Manulife) will actually run Canada, for their own profit?
And that includes burdening us with whatever taxes they feel like adding onto us.
Bob Rae could very well end up being the de facto PM of Canada on behalf of the cabal his brother works for, as we become the kleptocracy this bunch has always wanted, and briefly had during the reign of Chretien.
Or is this paranoid thinking?
This is what happens when dope is mixed with a dope. There are a few people in this world smart enough, who can drink or smoke dope and still be intelligent, this dolt is not one. Please Justy keep it up, your right on track.
“…He scares me because the average slightly-engaged voter could (and some will) fall for his charismatic expulsion of verbal diarrhea. I would wager that there are fair number of somewhat intelligent voters who, right now, think Shiny Pony is the White Stallion.”
Intelligent? I can think of more fitting adjectives.
An intelligent voter appreciates that choosing a government requires a lot more thought and concern for the future than choosing your favourite hockey team.
So no, no one with any intelligence will vote for Trudeau.
Wow!
Justin is so stupid even journalists are starting to notice!
Don Morris, I don’t think your thinking is paranoid. It’s common sense. One of the Liberals’ biggest problems is that the real power in the party is entirely in the hands of people who do not consider themselves electable, and they rely on electing mascots. Justin is the latest in the series of muppets who are passed off as “leaders”. That can work in certain circumstances, but not when you’re faced with something like the real thing. When Stephen Harper is slagged as a “dictator”, you’re seeing an acknowledgement that he really matters in the party. A vote for the Tories means Harper gets real power, and you can judge for yourself how he’ll use it. A vote for the Liberals means that somebody you’ve never heard of will get real power, and you’re going to have to find out the hard way who he is and what he’ll do with it.
Just a Guy, I understand your fears, and they are also the Liberal Party’s basic assumptions. The good news is, that thinking is proving itself obsolete. Thirty or even twenty years ago, what you put on the CBC news was what the electorate believed. Today, for every sucker who sees what the people on TV say and parrots it, there’s at least one other voter who absolutely hates the people on TV and will go out of his way to put a fist in their face.
One day there may emerge a Liberal leadership that has some grounding in reality, and when that day comes they’ll be dangerous. Right now they’re totally based on manipulating opinion by means that just don’t work any more. The risk is that people will decide that Harper is completely unacceptable and anyone else will do. If it doesn’t get to that point, Harper is secure. No one will kick him out so they can put Trudeau in.
How much longer am I going to see that chowderheard Kinsella on Sun News? Surely they could find a Liberal who has a personality and who doesn’t look like he sleeps in a cardboard box.
Kinsella is a old workhorse whose only goal in life seems to be to make anything liberal seem palatable. He has worked for David Dingwal, Allan Rock, Stephan Dion, Sheila Copps, Cretien and Dalton McGuinty among others. See any pattern ? Expect to see him regularly pounding the drum for Trudeau. The media likes him because he’s not evasive and speaks his mind. You might as well get used to him.
Bartinsky, you really nailed it with your “dope in a dope” comment. I like it so much that I’ll probably use it in a future post. I suspect that the people who are pulling the Shiny Pony’s strings are getting second thoughts about their figurehead(empty) candidate. For every vacuous pneumocephalic young female who feels a throbbing in her loins when she catches a glimpse of the Shiny Pony, a couple of sane voters get turned off whenever he opens his mouth.
Having had a number of personal conversations with Marc Emery, I can state that he was a perfectly competent businessman while partaking liberally of various psychoactive drugs on a daily basis. He had a knack for making money using the free market. When the Shiny Pony makes money, it’s a scam where the only capital he has is being the spawn of either the elder Turdeau, or one of the Rolling Stones. The reason we got rid of aristocracy as a form of government in N. America was because of imbecilic children like the Shiny Pony. In a meritocracy, the Shiny Pony wouldn’t be allowed anywhere near government except perhaps being voted president of the toilet attendants union. So, given the effect of dope in a dope let’s ensure that the Shiny Pony has a huge supply of Skunk weed to keep convincing voters that PMSH should be reelected.
