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."

Will someone please tell Trudeau’s incubator – I mean – wife to cram it?
No one is interested in this failed actress’ whining. She has her affluent lifestyle. What more does she want?
Does the Name Marie Antoinette come to mind..
The claim is they are running on the same budget as the Harpers . I am doubtful ,can anyone verify this ? I am wondering why you need nannies and staff on a family vacation . I am pretty sure according to Fife and Mansbrige hiring more staff is just part off the Liberal plan to provide more employment opportunities. So how come one of the nannies isn’t male ? Gender equality and all. Sunny ways friends , sunny ways !
If she has the time for all these fawning media/press
encounters then she obviously has ‘time not used wisely’, considering her complaints.
Here’s the poll at CTV Ottawa..does Sophie need more support to fulfill her duties?
http://ottawa.ctvnews.ca/community/poll-results
Thanks for the link. No is at 75%.
Years ago my late father-in-law listened to one of his nieces complaining about the difficult time she was having raising two kids – on a household income of close to $150,000.00 from two government jobs: 8 hour days with weekends off and generous holidays.
“Hey, Evelyn…how did you manage…with five kids and fifty cows?”
Pauvre Sophie. Quand tu vivre avec un tit, tu devenez un toi-meme.
Of course she needs help. Look who she’s married to. The whole country needs help. She’ll just have to wait her turn.
Is that #prayforsophie or is it #payforsophie ?
If she wants to serve people, she can get a job at Tim Hortons.
How she can be whining for her effette urban problems, while Fort McMurray residents are out of jobs, out of a house, or out of town, without any possessions is beyond me
its just pathetic, selfish, and narcissistic. Not that the MSM would EVER call Queenie Sophie on it, or PM Dufus, for that matter.
Canada is a constitutional monarchy structured on the Westminster parliamentary model. Therefore, despite all the hype, this woman is no “First Lady” simply because there is no basis for any such concept in our country.
The best contemporary model for our PM’s wife is not therefore Michelle Obama; it is the British PM’s wife Samantha Cameron. She is by no means unappealing to the eye, is a mother of four, is quietly active in various charitable causes and is visible with her husband in a dignified and outgoing manner when and as state circumstances permit. But she is not ubiquitous; the Cameron the British public voted for was David, not Samantha.
And so, most importantly, it is always abundantly clear that her husband – and her husband alone – is the only member of HM Government in the Cameron household.
Well I WAS going to make a donation to the folks at Fort Mac, but this is a much more urgent matter.
Where do I send my donation to help Sophie?
And if she needs “a team”, let her Coach the Montreal Canadiens. Can’t do much worse than the last guy.
Sheesh…people have to understand how time consuming it is to brazillian her Hello Kitty.
This sort of stunt is no doubt something she learned at her meetings with Michelle-O. No other ‘first lady’ ever took living-large-on-the-taxpayer’s-dime to such extremes. Sophie probably thinks she is the ‘first lady’ of Canada, and that she’s entitled to entitlements.
“Look at the job Maggie did. And Sophie shows similar stability.”
You’ve been reading my mind!
Sophie is acting and sounding more like Margaret every day.
Sophie, the solution is simple. Stage a telethon where you sing until donations reach the level you deem necessary to finance your “team”.
“This is the first time I have ever heard someone who doesn’t actually work complain about her ‘workload’.”
Kinda. I can understand a mother talking care of her family is a workload. Obviously, this isn’t the case here.
This sounds like a real good time the mamba … I need a mamba instructor taxpayers.
Sophie Gregoire’s video what a classy lady, Not.
http://www.therebel.media/watch_sophie_gregoire_s_participation_in_fake_infomercial
Sounds like she’s as flaky as Justin’s mom. Next she’ll be hanging out in nightclubs with rock stars.
sweety, you were not elected to any office. you are responsible for looking after your children, Canadians will do just fine without you, not so fine with your husband as PM.
“Sheesh…people have to understand how time consuming it is to brazillian her Hello Kitty.
A classic!
Perhaps she can borrow one some of the equally real jobless Mrs. Obama’s staff of 24 lapdogs and straphangers.
Canada’s own Evita Peron: “My people need me!”
Was watching Government T.V. this morning and was surprised to see #prayforsophie got a mention, then flipped it over to Government T.V. Wanna Be, and they too were mentioning the outrage and the #prayforsophie. Good job Canadians.
The results are in, and even at CBC comments are running 3/1 against Sophie; about the only positive support is from Hedy Fry.
What this demonstrates is an astonishing lack of awareness of difficulties facing ordinary middle class Canadians so idolized by her husband. To be blunt, neither Trudeau has the slightest clue about middle class people. Also evident is a shocking show of poor timing on her part; other issues in Canada warrant slightly more attention, than this woman’s complaints.
We all know that anyone with an ounce of common sense would strongly disagree with Sophie on this one. Be prepared for much, much more of this type of behaviour in the future. On October 19, Canadians tossed out a common man of the people and replaced him with an aristocrat accompanied by an aristocratic wife. She will receive the assistance she apparently requires and the taxpayer will foot the bill. Similar absurdities will pop up as Trudeau’s reign continues and the media will dutifully run interference. I hope we can all get used to it because it’s inevitable.
I agree that raising kids and running a household is work. However, this woman has two full-time nannies, plus a chef, plus housekeepers and other staff, so since she doesn’t have a job, just what does she consider her work?
Give her the staff, dammit. I would rather see more of her and less of Justin!
