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."

Mike Pence is a fascist for leaving an NFL game:

Happy thanksgiving everyone .
Sooo just to tell you all we have to be thankful for 1 thing you will al be thankful for is the liberal government has now decided to tax employee discounts .
The article is in the globe and mail / mop n pail ….I refuse to pay for that garbage site.
A buddy texted me the link , it’s behind a paywall.

Why does this song come to mind:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uu2_nfl3lLE
Listening to the lyrics, one could swear that the Beatles had our federal government in mind:
“Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don’t take it all.”
Today you rarely hear that song because we’re all socialists now. It was a George Harrison song written in 1966. Harrison noticed the Labour government of Harold Wilson and his Supertax was taking 95% of Beatle income, hence 1 for me 19 for you.
That is like charging tax on an original price when an item is on sale. Should be illegal. Also, those getting discounts most often work in retail — not the highest paid sector. So much for supporting “the middle class”. Next they will raise the GST. I am sure they will. Parliamentary restaurant is subsidized. Ordinary people can’t get in. Will they be charging Parliamentarians for this extra perk?
Just a thought to warm the hearts.
Anyone can lose an election if there is a confluence of the necessary events. To beat PM Sock puppet the conditions have to exist where good looks and fashion don’t motivate the voters that show up at the polls, and objective facts do.
It’s just a matter of finding out what those events are and helping them happen.
Maybe, but it would certainly help if the name Trudeau wasn’t on the ballot. It was only after PET packed it in that we were finally able to rid ourselves of the Liberals in 1984.
I’m sure there’s so much magic in that surname that if the Liberals ran a stuffed toy animal (a unicorn, maybe?) named Trudeau as its candidate for PM, southern Ontario and southern Quebec would vote it into office with an overwhelming majority. I’m sure the same thing would happen if a cardboard cutout of the Shiny Spud was used.
So, Revenue Canada will deem employee discounts as a taxable benefit. Surprised they didn’t add this to the list decades ago.
Ha, I will be curious to see if the now popular “employee pricing” marketing schemes have to change. That, or am I expected to believe that I can now pay much less for a vehicle than an employee?
I forecast that the libtards will just simply be driving more of our economy underground and will probably spend more in enforcement than gained in additional revenues. Also, as Lindal already mentioned, where are the new taxation rules that target politicians? Hmmmm? How about a Pig Trough Tax?
Well past time for a taxation revolt! The west doesn’t need to leave, it needs to withhold it’s tax dollars from these irresponsible thieves and traitors in Ottawa.
How will the tax people reconcile the fact that items are routinely on sale at or cheaper than the employee discount?
Will they be taxing green rebates,Bombardier subsidies and liberal kick-backs.
Your moral and intellectual superiors…. NYT buried Weinstein story in 2004
—————————————-
After intense pressure from Weinstein, which included having Matt Damon and Russell Crowe call me directly to vouch for Lombardo and unknown discussions well above my head at the Times, the story was gutted.
A spokeswoman for the Times had no comment on Sunday.

“EPA Set to Scrap Obama’s Power Plant Rule Tuesday, Pruitt Says”
“The Trump administration will propose the repeal Tuesday of President Barack Obama’s Clean Power Plan, which mandated cuts in carbon-dioxide emissions from power plants, said Scott Pruitt, the head of the Environmental Protection Agency.”
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-10-09/epa-set-to-scrap-obama-s-power-plant-rule-tuesday-pruitt-says
Ordinarily, I would heed Harrison’s admonition to … “declare the pennies on my eyes” … but the government’s already nicked those too. My heirs won’t have any pennies to place on my eyes. I will be going into the afterworld as a pauper. But I guess Jesus will be happy that all my filthy wealth has been distributed to the … poor … yeah … riiiight.
What do Al Gore and Harvey Weinstein have in common?
http://dailym.ai/2g4UwGn
They’re both crazed sex poodles … well-fed … OK, really FAT crazed sex poodles. Unwanted … crazed sex poodles.
Do we see a pattern here, with RICH, POWERFUL, leftists? Yes, of course you should add Billy-Bob Clinton to the heap of leftist pigs.
And SHE wonders why America could care less about Donald Trump’s braggadocio “pussy-grabbing” comment? Because America can tell the difference between common locker room talk … and chartering “Lolita-express” flights to Caribbean sex lairs to molester underage girls.
No wonder the gross FAT, PIG, Weinstein HATES Trump. Because Trump can actually land Fashion model wive(s) … while Weinstein has to rub one off into a potted plant. What a disgusting PIG. Piggy, piggy, oink, oink!
Winning! So. tired. of. all. this. winning. And yet the GOPe and Never-Trumpers … are STILL insisting that Trump is a New York liberal in disguise. When will they ALL finally admit they got him completely WRONG … and the American voters got it exactly RIGHT!?
Winning!!!! So. tired. of. all. the. Winning!
Just two weeks ago, the CRAZED GOPe Never-Trump poodles were excoriating MY President for having dinner with Pelosi and Schumer to discuss how he would/could support DACA. The Never-Trumpers SCREAMED that he has reneged on his campaign pledges … yadda yadda yadda. And yesterday … MY President unveiled his 70-point plan for cracking down on ILLEGAL immigration, and protecting the AMERICAN worker.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2017/oct/8/trump-send-70-point-immigration-enforcement-list-c/
As I repeat here (often) … patience. Patience … my friends. The FIRST part of a successful negotiation is getting your adversary comfortable and confident that you will deliver what THEY want … then … drop the other shoe and get YOUR goals met. MY President is absolutely KILLING IT! Esp. as compared to the spineless FRAUDS in the Republican Party who actually aided and abetted everything Obama ever wanted.
Yep
You have recapped a possible outcome.
But does this mean that outcome is the only one?
Furthermore, is it the only possible outcome?
That outcome as I pointed out is based on two presumptions that he is loved by all and that he’s fashionable. This in no way takes aim at him with the usual insults….see where I’m going here?
It’s not a matter of going at him as much as making those two attributes un-important to those “that will be showing u p to vote”.
Put the onus on his campaign to demonstrate how pretentiousness is a necessary requirement to be PM.
The two attributes are of a subjective nature and like any transient or fashionable trend time is not on his side.
This is not advocating for a campaign to out trudeau trudeau, it’s a strategy of making it unimportant to the majority of voters.
And OtterRob … would YOU send your daughter to “work” for Harvey Weinstein … when the open-secret of his debauchery was common knowledge? Malia Obama is a PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER … she doesn’t need a resume’-building job any more than Chelsea Clinton needed a resume’ to become a multi-millionaire by age 28.
https://twitchy.com/gregp-3534/2017/10/06/frank-rich-questions-why-the-obamas-let-malia-work-for-harvey-weinstein-gets-dragged-by-fellow-liberals/
Pigs. They’re all PIGS. They’re all the WORST kind of hypocrites known to mankind.
And let’s not forget the free travel (air and rail) benefits they enjoy.
Re: Video.
I’m hoping that the next time I eat Turkey will be on election night, when Trudeau gets the boot!
Listen carefully. Quebec is not ending crude oil imports–just what’s coming out of Alberta

Ain’t that the truth. Now Bob Corker laments, led by his sensitive ego, that Trump is a threat to start WW3, that he’s really scary don’t you know.
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/08/us/politics/trump-corker.html
Let’s see. Establishment idiots allowed NK to build their capability to this level. Trump has convinced China to get rid of their pugnacious meglomaniac in Pyonyang, deferring to US trade opportunities, though that remains a work in progress. Deeply isolated NK is an inert international Higgs boson.
Sure, all was wonderful before the unconventional Trump came along. Iran is no threat either, we’re just being big meanies with them.
Is it any wonder these fools were OK with “get their silencers” Hillary over their party nominee? These bambies avert their gaze from the Trump accomplishments, because he doesn’t do it like they would, such as lose to the collectivist juggernaut, preparing to tax away prosperity and liberty.
Imho, right of centre types here in Canada (the actual liberals) aren’t much better with the bleating about Harper/Sheer “not being conservative enough” to get their vote, therefore confirming statist hegemony and its accompanying attack on our wallets and words.
I truly fear for the future of both nations, but not because of Trump or Sheer not being conservative enough. That will end up as our national epitaph.

“We should not stifle these discussions and cannot allow our rights to become subservient to the very opinions our Constitution protects” NFL player union
This is clap shit.. The Government can not limit free speech, but every American has the same right & may react negatively to the Organized & coordinated Political agenda of Roger Goodell & NFL players Union…The right of an Evil individual to target NFL players is protected, but they could be prosecuted for the method..
The Baltimore & Jacksonville Game in the UK involved ESPN (ABC) workshops to obtain the maximum benefit for BLM & shame Trump.. The Killers in Dallas of 6 police officers was BLM…
THE NFL should cancel all scheduled games in 2017 (The teams are not competitive, players are lacking concentration) This will give Congress time to remove all Anti-Trust exceptions…Illegal Contracts voided
Give all the Players a Bus ticket & an Apple…
The College Teams play better football & are worthy of support…

A quote from the Globe&Mail:
“African-Nova Scotian organizers say it’s time for a centuries-overdue discussion about Canada’s legacy of slavery, its lasting harms on black Canadians and potential forms of reparation.”
Well I suppose it is only right and fair that they get a handout considering the Liberals are handing out $750,000,000 or so to the scooped Indians as reparation. Yup. And that’s why the liberals are inventing new ways to tax us with the ’employee discount’ tax next to see the light of day. What brain damaged progressive thought that one up, I wonder.
Massive swarm of wildfires in the wine country.
http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/2-big-wildfires-prompt-evacuations-in-Napa-County-12262945.php
The source of the fire(s) are … un – der … investigation. Believe me. These fires were set by ARSONISTS. Eco-arsonists who HATE mankind and development. And lest you believe these eco-terrorists are dumb … they set the FIRES during a N.CA WINDSTORM. The wind was absolutely HOWLING last night at my (normally calm) suburban enclave. The TIMING of this ARSON was carefully planned to coordinate with the HOWLING WINDS.
Our society has degenerated into complete chaos. Mass shootings, mass fire starters, statue defacers, kneeling NFL brats … SICK. Totally SICK. The American Dream is being dismantled piece-by-piece by the radical leftist ghouls. Time to fckuing FIGHT BACK !!
And I read that homes in the beautiful little wine country community of Kenwood were BURNED. Kenwood isn’t in the hills. It is down in the Napa Valley. It is not in the (newly)fire-prone hills of Napa. I have grown-up my entire life in CA … and this crap is totally UNPRECEDENTED in my lifetime. Its our sick, sick, radical leftist society that has permitted and even encouraged this garbage. And let me guess … the eco-experts in some State Dept. of eco-resources will declare the FIRES as “good” for the environment, because some acorns are only germinated by FIRE. Effing tools !! I am totally OVER this shit. OVER it.

Bongo’s old man was reduced to a minority after one term in ’72. Bongo could easily do the same or worse. The electorate everywhere is volatile. By 2019 anything is possible.
Detroit Firefighter Fired for Bringing ‘Racially Insensitive’ Watermelon to Work
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/10/08/detroit-firefighter-fired-bringing-racially-insensitive-watermelon-work/
What can I say, the left is doing an exceptional job at destroying any racial harmony America DID have. I hope the white firefighter enjoys the millions he wins for his racially motivated dismissal.
True, but that’s when the real damage occurred, when elder Trudeau finally turned the LPC full socialist by selling its soul to the NDP in minority.
The country went downhill from there. Take a look at the present NDP leader, he makes their 1972 leader David Lewis look like a gun toting Republican.
Singh will go beyond Lewis’s “corporate welfare bums” to crony environmentalism, class warfare and business destruction. Be careful what you wish for.
Classical liberals/libertarians and conservatives need to check their political chauvinism in favour of the nation, and help the Tories win a majority in 2019.
Or 2020 as the mendacious cabin boy falls further in the polls? As we speak the mediocracy is already preparing their “extreme right wing” labelling.
What will we get instead? The right eating their own, the mediocracy egging them on. What follows is Canada calling on the IMF within five years.
Will we become the next Greece or Venezuela? With our PM stoking the divisions and blaming those who notice, the latter polity seems more likely imho.
Remember that PET soon became loathed and reviled by many people. That didn’t keep him permanently out of office, did it?
He pulled all sorts of tricks to say in 24 Sussex, such as his phony-baloney “resignation”. That was merely a trick to get people to rally around him when Joe Who was busy shooting himself in the foot.
It wouldn’t surprise me if PET deliberately stirred up separatist sympathies in Quebec in order to get people to see him as the saviour of the country.
Defeating bongo won’t be easy but it is not impossible. Voters around the world are pissed with politics and politicians.
It could happen here especially if Jaggi Singh starts to gain some traction and Sheer looks like a reasonable alternative to bongo. I was around when PET, David Lewis, Bob Stanfield and joke lark were around. Conditions seems different this time.
Despite Google and Facebook suddenly “discovering” multiple purchases of “Russian” political “disinformation” advertising on their platforms … aka FAKE News … aka Trump “collaboration” …
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2017/10/09/google-uncovers-russian-bought-ads-on-youtube-gmail-and-other-platforms/?utm_term=.8633da71fcaf
I have yet to SEE a single ONE of these so-called FAKE News advertisements actually PUBLISHED. Not one. Makes one wonder a) Do they really exist, b) Are they REALLY “fake”, or do they tell the TRUTH about HER ? c) Do they really favor one candidate over another ? d) What were these ads really all about ? The fact that the ads are being “discovered” … yet not shown … begs multiple questions.
It is really easy and convenient to make broad, generalized, vague, charges about Russian “hacking” and “collusion” … but it is apparently really hard to find any specific evidence of the activity whatsoever. Not a single ad being shown as an example. Seems to me if Facebook collected > $ 100K in ad revenue … they could find a single ONE of the advertisements bought with all. that. money.
This is the biggest pile of Bull-droppings since Global Warming. Media FRAUD through and through.
I thought Canada’s legacy was that we let the black slaves in. Isn’t that where many Nova Scotia blacks came from?
,i.Imho, right of centre types here in Canada (the actual liberals) aren’t much better with the bleating about Harper/Sheer “not being conservative enough” to get their vote, therefore confirming statist hegemony and its accompanying attack on our wallets and words.
We. Don’t. Care.
We’re not voting for your team just because you think we should. If you can only come up with the reason “Well, he’s not Trudeau!” is the extent of your argument, it can burn. You want the vote of the actual Alt-Right and not the media’s concoction, present us with a candidate worthy of the vote. I’m voting NDP here in Alberta just because the only way Alberta gets a premier worthy of the office is if we’re even further in decline. Jason Kenney is just another globalist, multivultural (not a typo) shill. Brian Jean can’t keep his schwantz in his pants. Re-elect Notley until the right gets it right.
We’re almost even with Greece and Venezuela now and there’s no turning back. When a company is going bankrupt, it’s easier to let go and start all over again.
None of our politicians want to swim against the current. It’s easier to swim with the current and end up being dumped into the ocean where you can sink to the bottom, like Greece and Venezuela.
I do care when idiotic viewpoints like yours affect this country.
I think “He’s not Trudeau” is a wonderful reason to vote for almost anyone. Get that guy out, and we can fix things as needed.
Agree 100% with you, Deplorable Sean. As with drug addicts, there is no hope for recovery until you hit bottom. The sooner the addict hits bottom, the sooner recovery can begin. Of course, there’s also a chance that there is no recovery.
Either way, it does not matter once you are in the grips of addiction as we are. The bottom beckons.
Having said that, in elections I vote Libertarian if there is a candidate. If not, I either write none of the above or refuse the ballot. A CINO is not a valid choice in my book.
So, what’s your alternative, sport? Which of these 3 are going to do some push back that will benefit this province’s economics, given who they are & their track records?
That’s a level of stupid that usually takes years of grad school to acquire. Grade A prime dumbassery.
Did you think of that all by yourself or did your wife’s boyfriend help?
Conservatives have tried to make real candidates out of McCain, Romney, W. Bush, Kenney, Harper, and now Scheer. None of them were and none of them did/will stop the statist, communist agenda. You just keep voting Team Blue ( Canada) or Team Red ( US) and keep hoping stuff changes. The rest of us realize hiw vapid, how intellectually bankrupt and how you keep helping the left. We’ll keep a prime spot for you on the wall.
Don’t overlook Australia as an outsider
Captcha POLICE MEDICO
You’re planning on voting for the NDP yet you say that I’m the one helping the left? And this makes sense to you?
Yes, it does. When your team can put someone out front that isn’t a leftist in disguise, then maybe the A-R will vote for him. I’ll vote NDP/Green/Hard left until you do. I want someone who will roll back the leftist agenda, you want someone who just pretends to on the campaign trail and then “Well, what did you expect us to do?” afterwards.
So by giving power to the left, you’re helping to roll back the leftist agenda. You’re not rewarding them with your vote, oh no, not you. By allowing them to sink their claws deeper, you’re doing your part to halt their agenda! And you wonder why I say that’s stupid.
Vote Conservative sport. They’re by far the closest thing to support private enterprise and limiting government.
Don’t let the perfect, sorry “real conservative,” be the enemy of the best choice. If you have to plug your nose or ditch political snobbery, do so.
When you go to the government choice smorgasboard, you have to pay for the food they put out, whether it fits your tastes or not.
Sometimes there are things you want that aren’t available, so you make the best choice possible, given there are no refunds.
If you don’t eat, you pay anyway.
If you can’t decide, the restaurant owner happily does for you and makes the menu even smaller, by focusing on their favoured suppliers, for his benefit.
You still have to pay. Before long the restaurant owner will think your money belongs to him, that he’s doing you a favour supplying bread & water.
Vote out the restaurant owner, put him out of business. It’s not enough to refuse to deal with him. It’s all good to him, less work, same pay.
He gets paid no matter what. Welcome to government. Pay and starve. You get the government you paid for, whether you like it or not.
So make the best of imperfect options or you will get the worst option. That happened in 2015, it will happen again in 2019 unless people wake up.
Unless you prefer the NDP?
Name one (1) true conservative politican in Canada. Go back to 1867 if you want and name one (1). Federally or provincial.
It is over.
Canada was a nice idea when it started.
Diversity is no strength and our debt at government level is treason.
The debt level we now carry is un-payable.
(Those unfunded promises, liabilities.)
So pick your death, whining and foot dragging as the so called conservatives do or pedal to the metal NDP style.
Do you want a long drawn out collapse?
Or a quick death?
Of course there is the Liberal “solution” where the fools and bandits are too stupid to realize the fates they tempt.
Sunni Daze for all, smoke dope and repeat endless “affirmatives” Unicorn Farts and Pixie Dust will save us all, if only you believe…
There are no conservatives present in the “Public dialogue”.
We are too Reactionary,Racist, Extreme and Judgemental to be allowed a voice in this Politically Correct Loonie bin.
What I feel needs to be said is, Hate Speech by our laws.
So we have no voice, which leaves the only truthful activity in society, actions.
Businesses are closing, investments are not being made and useful people are not volunteering.
Up until recently the chant from our parasitic overlords was consistent;
“Productivity in Canada is falling”.
Year in year out…Now in Trudupia the bureaucrats and their media offspring don’t even bother to report this..
Cause its 2016..2017…Cause maths is hard.
Reform was an important experiment.
The conclusion is inescapable.
A Kleptocracy cannot be peacefully reformed.
Once 60% of voters believe they can vote themselves “Free Stuff”, the country is done.
No need to separate from the East, once this becomes a pocketbook issue all our own fools and bandits will be squealing to part ways…when the bill comes due.
