Meanwhile, some Liberals have been privately bristling over what they saw as heavy-handed efforts to get members to back proposed changes to the party’s constitution. Others say the changes go too far in concentrating power at the top.
Shocking, I know. A party whose entire focus for sixty years is centralization of power with Ottawa is taking criticism for being controlling.

And yet Harper was the real bully.
You can own this, Liberals.
(SEE: bed, you, lie)
They are bristling about all the power at the top? Yeah right. Just like a tiger,commies can’t change their stripes. Or maybe there are to many effing power hungry twits in the LIEberal party?
Maybe he has more important issues to consider, given his Ambassador to Ireland decided to intervene on a twit in a cemetery, forgetting it’s “not his job.”
Hmm, he only elbowed someone in parliament while Vicker’s “tackled” (the European pussy pejorative) someone who was flinging open his jacket to perhaps, in Grit semantics, anti-gun control upon the group. I understand the PM was “appraised” (apprised you illiterate twits) of the incident.
“Trudeau to consider Vickers tackling protester if issue raised.” The point of this article is he should be asked.
The swift reaction of Mr Vickers, who is famed for shooting dead a gunman at the Canadian House of Commons in 2014, attracted considerable reaction in the country’s media. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) reported the government’s code of conduct for diplomatic staff serving abroad.”
In a comment piece, the CBC’s national affairs editor Chris Hall said Mr Vickers was regarded as a man of “enormous personal integrity” and “of even greater personal courage”. “But Vickers is no longer a security officer,” he continued. “He is Canada’s representative in Ireland. That role depends not on bravery but discretion. Ambassadors are supposed to stay out of domestic issues in their host country.”
Oh the “country’s media” eh? No wonder we have traipsing Trump and the Icelandic Pirate Party.
BTW I f-ing love what Vickers did. I hope Trudeau tries to recall him; another arrow in the quiver thanks.

Meanwhile,back at the Progressive Canada Ranch, poll after poll shows Justin is still well loved by a huge majority of Canadians.
Most astounding, 85% 0f Canadians apparently believe he is highly intelligent.
“At the top of the list of positive perceptions: “he projects a good image of Canada around the world” (79%), “he’s intelligent” (85%) he”sets a good example for young people in Canada” (77%), “genuinely cares about other people” (81%), “works hard at his job (81%) tries to do the right thing for the country” (86%), “open to new ideas, willing to listen to others” (78%).
I think I’m gonna go for a walk, it’s too early in the day to start drinking.
Shiny Pony figures that if it worked for Daddy, it works for him. Sadly, he’s right. By all accounts, Stanfield would have been a better prime minister than PET and we all know how that turned out, don’t we?
By the way, when it comes to this stuff, it’s *never* too early to start boozing!
By the way, isn’t Abacus Data a bunch of Lieberal shills?
What time is it?
Churchill Hemingway and others made drinking an art form.
I’m certain they loved the effects of alcohol but they could still function intelligently while yielding to its delights.
My advice, go ahead and pour a drink. Think I’ll do the same.
As I have opined many times in the past, it is China, the model. The statists finally think they have it right and are rolling this out globally.
The Liberty loving folks in the LPC better wake up and fast.
I’m talking to you fellows in Montreal – you knew who Trudeau was and failed to stop him. And you knew you should have. You said so.
That 85 % of Canadians believe Trudeau is intelligent says a lot about Canadians. The guy occasionally has a grammatical slip that I was cured of in elementary school. I rate him a a high functioning moron.
It does seem that Abbacus has become the Liberal polling firm of choice. To think they used to be called on by SunTV.
It is tough to beat the comments to that article, as they expose the Liberal hypocrisy on centralizing power. This is pathetic considering the Liberals and their media shills denigrated Harper for nine years and accused him of doing the same.
Somehow it is good when Liberals concentrate power in the PMO?
“Clever but not wise” fits him better than “intelligent”.
Would a guillotine make a difference?
The same dipsh!itz who voted for the Trustfund Kid would still be making decisions.
I’m confused – I thought / was led to believe that Harper was the dictator! But now it is the Liberals who want to concentrate power?
As far as the 79% of those polled saying that PM Tinkerbell is highly intelligent, I think that figure is more an indication of the successes of our educational institutions in dumbing down the population.
concentrating power at the top, that’s what Turd the Elder did to Canada’s Parliament, but somehow the Glibs don’t like it when Turd the Younger does it to them. Payback’s a bitch, aint it?
intelligence is highly subjective, rite up until some fcuks up upon testing:-)))
Asked my X why she thought Harper was controlling and dictatorial, she heard it on the news. So, I explained the LSM’s bias, me thinks she is still trying process that info:-))
Don, Suzuki also pols very high, the lying uninformed little scumbag
YES! Abacus and NANOS are BOTH Liberal shills,and they get their polls on all the media every time they do one, CBC,CTV,Global,and all the Newspapers show the poll results of those two stalwart firms.
So,the unwashed masses see that Trudeau is LOVED by a majority of Canadians, it says so right on CBC,and the Toronto Star, etc,!
Just like man made global warming is an incontrovertible fact, Justin Trudeau is loved and admired.
Ask anyone who isn’t a political junkie.
NOW,it’s well past Noon,and I’m gonna have that drink.
Yes, time for a drink..or two…Cheers!
I picked a fine time to go senile.
Yup, the Liberals sure are a controlling, sneaky bunch, alright.
But really, the only difference between our so-called Conservative parties and the other arseholes is the length of time it will take us to hit rock-bottom. There isn’t one Conservative leadership candidate who will (a) denounce AGW for the fraud that it is, (b) state that our immigration/refugee admission criteria must be tightened up, (c)go on the record publicly and tackle the Islamic arseholes who are preaching hatred in our mosques, (d)commit to giving Canadians effective property rights.
So nothing, and I mean nothing, is going to change in this country until the grassroots gets up off its collective arses and bring things to a standstill with a massive, prolonged, “STOP THE STUPITY” movement. Plug up every main artery and government office in Ottawa, Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary and Edmonton and bring things to a standstill. Send a message to all politicians, of every stripe, that their pay-cheque, and their well-being, is totally dependant on us.
But that would take a level of guts and commitment on a national level that hasn’t been seen in this country since World War II. Silly me.
Now, if you don’t mind, I think I’ll join Don Morris, abtrapper and Liz J…cheers!
Today’s Sesame Street brought to you by the letter B: bunkers, bullion, bullets, bully-beef, beans, and bottled water.
After reading that it’s never too early to start drinking
“BTW I f-ing love what Vickers did”
It’s too bad that Vickers didn’t take it a step or two further and hand the idiot a beatdown that he wouldn’t soon forget.
As for the CBC’s Chris Hall, I suppose his idea of “discretion” is to sit on one’s hands and timidly watch as mayhem ensues. There was more than enough of this behaviour exhibited by the authorities who were basically forced into action as a result of Vickers’ rightfully taking matters into his own hands.
Nowadays there seems to be a preponderance of so-called activists who excel at disrupting events and making their points by yelling louder than those with whom they disagree. Perhaps if those in charge of keeping order were to respond in a somewhat more aggressive fashion (baton across the back of the knees for example), these protestors would finally come to the realization that acting stupidily has consequences.
Despite what pollsters have to say Turdomania could only muster 39% when polling actually mattered, slightly less than “Harpermania”, don’t be fooled by the media’s constant PR for the clowned prince. I haven’t met one person that will admit to even voting for the Butts Telford pet. Turdomania is very strong within the Media and it has to be in order to keep the charade of Turdomania goose stepping forward. I suspect Turds real numbers are average at best, perhaps worse and thats why the Liberal Party Media feel the need to constantly sell the notion of a larger mental disorder within the Canadian public. My opinion is don’t believe the hype.
Don
That’s another online poll, where the participants are NOT random. Anything to do with Turdopey is not to be believed or followed. Abacus (Bruce Anderson) is a long time LIEberal operative.
Polls can be twisted any way an organization wants them to be, by:
asking only certain participants.
skewing the questions.
slanting the answers.
Sorry, I’m not paying much attention to the Cult of Personality here. We see the results in the states, where the same game has been played for 8 years, and, the blind LIVs continue to think all is well, when in fact, the US couldn’t be in worse shape, with government numbers that are a sham, that don’t even come close to the true number of unemployed and forgotten citizens in the US
Good idea! Mind if I join you. I could use a stiff drink, especially after reading Lance’s “Good” post content.
Maybe we shouldn’t be surprised. After all, President “I’m sorry that America exists” had Ben Rhodes concoct all sorts of codswallop about the phony Iranian nuclear deal.
What, you aren’t satisfied with the A-hole with a giant ego we have as PM now?
Yes, what is it with western civilization countries voting for leaders that want to destroy western civilization? Our current PM wants to relinquish even more of our national sovereignty to the thugs and Islamists at the UN.
Yes, what is it with western civilization countries voting for leaders that want to destroy western civilization? Our current PM wants to relinquish even more of our national sovereignty to the thugs and Islamists at the UN.
I don’t understand it, either.
Western Europe, for the most part, is a write-off. What the Soviet Union couldn’t achieve militarily, politicians and LIVs will.
Then again, I saw starting as far back as the mid-1970s when that rot known as liberation theology began infesting the church. Instead of receiving spiritual guidance in Sunday sermons, I was told to question, if not loathe and renounce, the very values I was brought up with. After all, that Jesus fellow was a hard-core communist revolutionary, right?
It makes me glad I was never a father.
And some days I am sad that I was a father of four and grandfather of twelve. The thread above, “Good”, confirms my fears for my offspring in Canada, as I fear that many of them will go to jail or re-education labour camps for their faith stands.
Yesterday was the 39th anniversary of my receiving my B. Sc. Back then, had anyone told me that western civilization was in danger of extinction, I might have agreed, though that would have been due to nuclear annihilation.
If anyone had told me that it would be due to a slow rot from within, with the government acting as a collaborator, I’d have said they were nuts.
So much for the bright shiny future I thought would happen.
I notice these Trudeau-positive polls come out whenever Trulander screws up royally, which is a lot. His backers really know how to move on these things.
Don’t put too much stock into these polls, is my point. Take a look around. How many people are repulsed by this pu$$y? Do you think his supporters would lay off of their marijuana to consistently support him?
guess what folks, you’re all in agreement but dont know it. Harrpoon was a control freak, firing critics galore. turdeau 2.0 is well on his way to fast tracking his position as Emperor II. a quick learner that lad. you think it’s all *his* idea? lol !!!
comment #2: get ready for additional majority gov’ts with the drama teacher at the top. do NOT confuse my predictions with my preferences.
p.s. CONservatives take a big chunk of the blame for continuing to miss the mark and putting control freaks in the lead role. role? oh yes, role, as in a stage play, a modernized Shakespearean tragi-comedy. that’s what I like sooooo much about Cdn humour, lots of real life in the jokes.
the biggest joke so far however is the morphing going on right in front of us whereby CONservatives adopt liberalism to garner votes, and Lieberals adopt conservative strategies to centralize power once they are in office. remember next time you vote, pick the one that will do the least damage !!!
“remember next time you vote, pick the one that will do the least damage !!!”
Might as well vote for the most reasonable sounding Independent then, we had one I liked in the last election, took about 300 votes out of 40,000.
Libranos go into “constant campaigning mode” just like Obarry. Liebrals love dictatorships, I’m sorry, I meant “admire dictatorships”.
