    I always enjoy your comments.

  3. Re: Song, ”Keep it Gay.”
    Where does the notion come from that people who perform on Broadway have British accents??
    That goes hand in hand with Texans and cowboy hats. (I was in Dallas for 5 days, never saw one cowboy hat.)
    French men wearing berets. (I was in Paris for a week, never saw one beret.)
    Black kids playing basketball in the driveway. (I once lived in a neighborhood where every third household was black. (Never saw one playing basketball.)

  12. Little mention of the Taiwan Water Park incident on Canadian news — maybe still to emerge. Even where it is being covered, there is no mention that this was a gay pride event intended to celebrate the US court decision on gay marriage. I know that some will say it is not relevant, but I think it is part of the story. I am pretty sure that if the group had been blacks, feminists, boy scouts, gun supporters,ant-abortionists, Reverend Moons, etc. etc. that would have been mentioned because it is part of the story. So I am puzzled about why it is not mentioned in this story that the event was a gay pride event.

  13. Oh well, at least she has some experience — more so than the vast majority of NDPers.

    Boris’s Conundrum:
    “We must settle on a name for our enemies that doesn’t smear all Muslims but does reflect reality”

    “Islamic State? This death cult is not a state and it’s certainly not Islamic”
    “We must settle on a name for our enemies that doesn’t smear all Muslims but does reflect reality”

  15. oyph.
    seems climate change IS in fact happening, seeing as the interior of BC set 120 year heat records.
    google it
    but then BC is infested with lefties and liberals and socialists, soooo…..

  17. The Donald has been booted by NBC due to his remarks about Mexican illegals streaming across the U.S. southern border.

  18. Just how many ways can one describe a tax increase?
    Trudeau says a Liberal government would put a price on carbon pollution
    “He told media in Vancouver that within 90 days of taking office, his government would map out a plan to reduce the country’s collective carbon footprint. Trudeau says he would invite all of Canada’s premiers to join him at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Paris at the end of this year.”
    Well that, and cancel admission fees to national parks in 2017, to commemorate Canada’s 1505h anniversary. Plus a whole bunch of other cool, top down stuff. Isn’t that sweet. His dad did Expo 67, Justin hands out free park tickets.
    C’mon let’s party.

    Not to be outdone, Angry Tom and the Canadian Labour Party feel cities are the key to their vote, err constituency, umm “middle class jobs.” Everyone knows that strangling the shit out of workers and entrepreneurs with crippling taxes, electricity costs and regulations creates lots of “middle class jobs.”

  21. And don’t forget the Palliser Expedition of 1857 – 1860, which found a large area of the Prairies to be hot and dry, that area later dubbed the Palliser Triangle. They didn’t take thermometers along, though, so don’t know just HOW hot it was back then.
    However, 120 years – not that long when weather records being considered. I’d like to see the figures for the Prairies from about 1000 years ago.

  22. AGW RIP.
    “dealing a blow to the Obama…”

    “UN climate talks moving at snail’s pace, says Ban Ki-moon” (grauniad)
    …-
    “US supreme court strikes down Obama’s EPA limits on mercury pollution”
    “The US supreme court struck down new rules for America’s biggest air polluters on Monday, dealing a blow to the Obama administration’s efforts to set limits on the amount of mercury, arsenic and other toxins coal-fired power plants can spew into the air, lakes and rivers.”

  24. I don’t know if this was done intentionally, if they were hacked, or if it is just the colours on my computer (which I doubt).
    But, the Liberal party website has had all the red changed to green.

    Or could it be a pre-election coalition ???
