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."

Muslim Parents ‘on the Warpath’ over Gay Teacher at Kindergarten
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/03/30/muslim-warpath-gay-kindergarten-teacher/
“Noting that all but one child who attended the daycare centre comes from a Muslim family, she said the parents “come from another world”, explaining that they see gay men as a danger.”
It goes without saying, can you imagine the leftist cries of homophobia if these parents were Christian?

They are super heroes . There is nothing they can’t fix with a new or higher tax .
Imagine what a $300 per tonne tax would do to our economy.
The Liberals want the tax in full force by 2050!
Slight problem. They may not be around by then.
Ooops!! Sorry!! That last comment was intended for ”Concerned!!”

As this knowledge becomes more widespread and echoed by the MSM, the lieberals popularity will sink like a stone.
Hopefully O-Leery will loose the Conservative leader race and run for Ontario Premier. That’s a race he could win, and it would be the first step in dismantling the Lieberal regime in Canada.
They keep flogging the “revenue neutral” myth. The only revenue neutral tax is no tax at all.
Taxes can never be revenue neutral for the same reason that ‘the house always wins’ at any casino.
What happens when two protected species eat each other? We shall see … awaiting the outcome to be announced.
Shallow minded millennials are easily manipulated through social media. They believe whatever comes at them through their i-toys. “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” Social media provides the means to do this more effectively than ever before. They were manipulated to provide the winning margins to elect Wynne, Notley and Trudeau. It’s unlikely the conservatives ever saw it coming.

“If Evelyn Farkas Resigned in 2015, How Did She Have Access to Trump-Russian Intelligence?”
“This was making waves yesterday, after Evelyn Farkas admitted to Mika from The Morning Joe show that she strongly advised people ‘on the hill’ and in our intelligence agencies to tuck away intelligence regarding Russo-Trump ties for the sake of preservation, in an effort to protect it from the onerous bureaucracy she obviously finds to be deplorable.”
“Get as much intelligence as you can before President Obama leaves the administration,” said Farkas in an interview yesterday on MSNBC.
She was afraid the Trump people would gain access to their intelligence and whisk it away — because they’re all Russian spies, obviously.
Aside from what appears to be a brazen confirmation of spying on the Trump team, the bigger red flag here is Dr. Farkas wasn’t employed by the Obama administration at the time the Russian allegations arose.”

The official said that after the list of documents related to the probe into Russian interference in the U.S. election was created in early January, he hand-carried it to the committee members. The numbers themselves were not classified, said the official.

The purpose, said the official, was to make it “harder to bury” the information, “to share it with those on the Hill who could lawfully see the documents,” and to make sure it could reside in an Intelligence committee safe, “not just at Langley [CIA hq].”

“Blow to Northern Sea Route as voyages of two icebreakers are… broken by ice
By The Siberian Times reporter
24 January 2017
Vessels Kapitan Dranitsyn and Admiral Makarov ‘marooned’ in east for the rest of winter after getting trapped off Chukotka.”
“The icebreakers and the bulk carriers they were escorting became stuck some 24 nautical miles from Pevek, Russia’s northernmost port, earlier in January.
Thick compressed ice and ‘severe’ conditions prevented the icebreakers and supply ships Sinegorsk and Johann Mahmastal from moving across the East Siberian Sea on their way to Arkhangelsk.
Their voyage had been a test of new climatic conditions, with Russia actively seeking to develop the Northern Sea Route between Europe and Asia, across the top of Siberia.”

“Hill 70: The carnage, courage and victory that Canadians forgot
Canadians know the story of Vimy Ridge and the horrors of Passchendaele. Now, with the unveiling of a stirring memorial in northern France, and a raft of initiatives set to unfold across Canada, the Battle of Hill 70 takes its place as a pivotal moment in the history of our country.”
“A wounded Canadian soldier accompanies a German prisoner suffering from shell shock at Hill 70. Unfolding over 10 days in August, 1917, the battle saw Canadian soldiers take the hill near the strategic town of Lens despite a remarkable 21 German counterattacks – but at a heavy cost. ‘Dead bodies lie half buried under the fallen parapet and wounded are writhing in convulsions of pain … they lie in a mass of grey, with blood splashed all around,’ Arthur Lapointe, a signaler with the 22nd Battalion, wrote in his journal.”
“It is the Monument to Lost Memory.
Travel along County Road 43 through the rolling dairy-farm countryside of Eastern Ontario. Turn onto the smaller County Road 1, then over the crossing where the trains still run but no longer stop. Take a quick right on Clark Road and turn in by the worn outdoor hockey rink and community centre.
This is Mountain, a hamlet named for Jacob Mountain, first Anglican Bishop of Quebec, 1749-1825. He is not much remembered here, if at all. But the 8,677 Canadian soldiers who were killed, gassed, wounded or went missing during a horrific 10-day battle in northern France 100 years ago most assuredly are.”

When asked by a reporter if individuals expressing extremist views should be allowed to continue working at our country’s airports, Trudeau’s response was remarkable for its lack of clarity and courage.
“I think that’s part of the kind of conversations we have to have as a society,” said Trudeau.
http://www.ottawasun.com/2017/03/31/trudeau-soft-pedals-terrorism-again
Liberal Democratic Institutions Minister Maryam Monsef is understood to be the subject of a citizenship fraud investigation.
The Toronto Sun says Monsef is under investigation following complaints made to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
OK. So who will start the “conversation”. Should we have people with extremist views working at our airports? How about people in burkas? Trudeau is so stupid, he is dangerous and it is high time the public noticed.
Don’t forget that, according to him, “a Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian”.
But this business about the “conversation” we’re all supposed to have reminds me of my last department head at he place where I used to teach.
Whenever I presented an idea to him that he didn’t like, he never said “no”. That would have been seen as negative. Instead, he would always say, “We’ll talk about it.” Except we never did.
By responding that way, he always gave the impression that he might consider my suggestion and I could never accuse him of turning me down.
That “conversation” that wee Juthtin says we need to have will never take place.
