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."

“Trudeau achieves gender parity in cabinet”
Media can’t count. 15 women in a 31-member cabinet isn’t parity.
Also good that she’s from the West as we might have had four party leaders from Quebec which is a bit much (Denis Lebel would have been a co leader and Otoole was born in Montreal but left).
Great, more vagina worship in Western politics.
So that is what Justin meant by it being 2015.
Keeping the women in his cabinet subjugated.
Would one of them be homosexual, transgendered or just confused?
Wait, isn’t this the same Rosa Ambrose that the CBC and other media in Canada mercilessly attacked for being an intellectual lightweight?
Now we hear that appointing her as interim CPC leader is a “smart move”.
Note that too this makes the second time a woman has led the Conservative party.
When was the last time a woman led the Liberal party………………………
“When was the last time a woman led the Liberal party………………………”
You people have yet to realize that slavishly following what the Left wants you to follow accomplishes nothing. If you play by their rules, they can change the rules at will (one of them is “for me, but not for thee”). The sooner people say “no” rather than trying to out-prog the progs, the better. They’re hypocrites, obviously, but that’s all part of being a prog. You can’t beat people by playing by their rules.
Exactly. Liberals LOVE a good conservative concession speech. Never forget that.
I wonder if the 15 women chosen to be in cabinet along side of the 15 men have considered that some of them are there only because they have a vagina. I think that would be degrading to women. I would wonder if I was merely a token. How embarrassing. The world is watching this clown employ his jejune ideas about fairness and equity.
Greg, I agree with everything you say. I was just trying to point out the utter hypocrisy of the left and their media allies.
Will the “girls” be serving coffee in the “real” ministers office?
They always admired Robert Stanfield. I wonder why?
Mind you, having equal numbers of men and women does not necessarily mean that women were given the soft ride, the real problem here is not so many women but the assumption that equal numbers are necessary. If you selected the thirty most qualified people, why would it not be possible for twenty to be women? Or ten?
What is the actual point of it, beyond optics? Are there also equal numbers of tall and short people? Lawyers and non-lawyers?
The rest of this post will be typed by my pet parrot, just to create equality of human and non-human commentary:
asghy899789689s0-d90-9[df90gy80[asy[gh asdjsida b want a cracker
They selected 4 Pubjabis and 4 Atlantic Canadians. That’s parity.
Punjabis – sorry old eyes
The media will mercilessly attack any CPC leader, male or female. If they fear the new leader, the attacks will increase in ferocity. The CPC could have picked Mary Magdalene, Mother Teresa or Florence Nightingale and the criticism would have continued unabated. The only female who could have possibly lessened the fury of the attacks would be Hillary Clinton and she wasn’t available.
Is the point here that T has only 5 ministers as ministers of state and accidentally designated these 5 junior ministers and not other ministers?
The Punjab has more cabinet representation than every province except for Ont and Que.
Jason Kenney wept.
The difference between Rona Ambrose and the Gliberal affirmative action ‘cabinet ministers’ (nudge nudge, wink wink) is that Ms Ambrose achieved her position on the basis of merit, not plumbing fixtures.
Justin Trulander is getting the kind of praise and pampering one would give a child. Every sneeze is record and glorified. If he says he is giving the gals a chance at the big chair even though they are just there to get the coffee, pat him on the head and give him a piece of hard candy, anyway. It’s always about him and how super-wonderful he is, not whether or not these brain-trusts have what it takes to do any actual work.
I can’t wait for the zombie apocalypse.
So next time we build a nuclear reactor, let’s not waste time and money on physicists, engineers and technicians that demand $500,000 per. Let’s just hire women.
First time newly elected Liberal women appointed to ministerial positions?
Just wait for the culture of entitlement to go over the top.
I can’t wait for the entertainment to start.
Trudeau’s birthday is Christmas day and upcoming that will trump ALL in the media. I feel like I’m living in North Korea and everyday everything everywhere is about dear leader.
It was reported that Trudeau will only be in the House 1 day a week for Question Period…due to his tight schedule. I have a mental picture of him being hidden away in a classroom with a pull down geography map and someone trying to teach him the countries of the Middle East and Europe.
Questions are to be directed to the cabinet ministers…and the new PM wants his questions in advance (I assume so his answers can be scripted…just like Obummer stateside reading from the telepromter).
Bardis Chagger?
Sounds like a disease.
I am not letting that @$$hole ruin Christmas for me.
Obama also has a tight schedule.
Here it is:
– golf
– drinks
– more golf
– nap
– drinks with Bouncy
– watch “The Big Bang Theory”
– go to bed early
I suspect Justin Trulander’s schedule is similar.
They are already announcing the empty hair will only be in the house once a week, I don’t think that’s real change , I think it’s same same
Justine the Katholic Truedough????
Trudope needs to find a handicapped black lesbian..kind of a four for one deal
Hot cross Hedy fits the most of that,
Justine the Katholic Truedough???? you ask, NME666?
And I thought it was just the Jews you hated.
And never forget that – at one time – the Reform Party had a 100% female caucas. That, of course, was Deborah Grey. Kudos to Preston Manning for not insisting she step down so he could take a “safe seat” in a by-election.
“Empty hair”…
That’s a keeper cal2…If you don’t mind I might use that one often.
Rona’s cute but not from Quebec (Our anchor) and her “Joual” is no good, Tabernac!…Pas bon pour le buckwheat Quebec. Non, non, non. After all they just elected the kid of the dad that arrested and jailed hundreds of innocent Quebecers for months in 1970 but that don’t matter when you are a bunch of “mangeux de marde” retards. Justin can speak French and is from Quebec. Good enough.
Gilles Duceppe BTW was once member of the Communist party of Canada…Just for perspective.
Today BTW, Quebec is rejoicing to the fact that the port that would of served as a launch point for potential refineries from Trans Canada Pipeline is not going to happen and that the pipeline itself that was to terminus in New Brunswick might now be on hold too. More studies and consultations you see to make sure Quebec get a good cut.
Bravo! No job creation! Saving the planet one private sector job killing at a time while faithfully getting the biggest piece of Federal dollar redistribution (Around 30 B if not mistaken) every year. I love my native Province so much I move out in 1995. (Year of referendum is just coincidence BTW). I hate Quebec’s isolation into a lefty hellhole with absolutely no right wing media, mainstream or even on the net of any significance like SDM.
Quebecers are all emotion, no logic leftards.
…Reaching for the bottle of Jack now.
More tokenism.
Course it will escape the slavering medias attention.
Most liberal MP’s are token human being too, puppets operated by their masters.
Of course the Reform members were evil, real humans without a hand up them.
That is not how politics should work.
Not east of Manitoba.
A little off topic, but the swearing in…were my ears blocked or did Justin swear allegiance to the Queens hairs? I heard it twice in different news stories and I could swear he is upholding Canada’s faithful position to the Queen and her coiffure.
Rona’s not going to be the next leader.
So, why sweat the small stuff?
So trudeau picked his cabinet based on what’s between their legs and not what’s between their ears……
50% female cabinet appointments lead to 5000% increase in guys who suddenly care about merit in cabinet
http://www.thebeaverton.com/national/item/2204-50-female-cabinet-appointments-lead-to-5000-increase-in-guys-who-suddenly-care-about-merit-in-cabinet
This really says it all:
“I suddenly and inexplicably find myself very concerned about this issue,” added Dr. William Harkin of the University of Calgary, also a lifelong male. “Unlike Trudeau, Prime Minister Harper only chose the most qualified people for his cabinet posts, like a climate change denier [Peter Kent] as his Minister of the Environment. Or his numerous Ministers of Defense who never once held military positions.”
He concluded, “I mean, Jason Kenney alone was Minister of Immigration before being shuffled to Multiculturalism, then Social Development, and then finally National Defense – clearly because he was the most qualified person in the entire country on all those four completely unrelated files.”
Cal 2, one can see that he is hard at work.
NME 666, did katoliks and JOOS trk yr jrbs?
BCer, NME 666 spreads his crotchety anger all around.
Pick your cabinet based on who has the best tits. It’s 2015. #Just-TheBiggestTitAround
Or the best qualifications. I mean, don’t even bother to read their bios.
This is why the Conservatives deserved to lose. Because they were too cowardly to stand up and tell morons like yourself to shut your stupid mouths.
Why do we burn witches? Because it’s 1692!
Why do we own slaves? Because it’s 1855!
Why do we kill the kulaks? Because it’s 1930!
I’ve read Scott Brison’s bio. That dyed-in-wool Liberal who’s true to his unwavering convictions.
The woman responsible for the National Capital Commission lives in Montreal. Even Ottawa’s Liberal mayor isn’t happy.
“Or his numerous Ministers of Defense who never once held military positions.”
A lot of people believe that a defence minister shouldn’t be a soldier and a health minister shouldn’t be a lawyer because they are too invested in the system. For some reason justice ministers are always lawyers. Your only concern is that they campaign as Marxists and rule as tyrants, like Liberals of old.

“A lot of people believe that a defence minister shouldn’t be a soldier and a health minister shouldn’t be a doctor because they are too invested in the system.”
A lot of people believe a lot of stupid things. I would argue that having direct job experience with something would provide considerable insight into a department. Especially when it comes to defence and the veterans who were royal screwed by Harper’s government. Royally. I mean WOW. It’s like you guys would rather just grind up vets for dog food or something the way you “respect” their service.
And I’m not really sure you understand what the “Marxist”, or “tyrant” actually mean.
Actually, all 30 Cabinet members are full ministers after all: http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/justin-trudeau-cabinet-fine-print-women-junior-ministers-1.3307122.
As usual, your outrage is based on perceptions, not facts.
Ambrose is now supporting the multi-million dollar inquiry into missing and murdered native women. Even though it has been done to death, we still haven’t proved it’s whitey. So now we start the attempt at crowding out the Libs again for the center. Oh well, I can keep my donations to myself.
