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."

What everybody got wrong about that viral video of a starving polar bear
Dubbed the ‘Face of Climate Change,’ a starving polar bear photographed in Canada’s Arctic might have nothing to do with climate change

South Surrey WR, always a Conservative riding, today goes Fiberals. WTF
Conservatives elect a low energy red tory moron in the worst possible leadership system ever convinced and the Lieberal train rolls along.
What say you Gord Tulk
The tax on nothing in the name of junk science marches on.

Apparently there was no complaint against Lindsey Shepherd.

Would take that with reserve.
Look at the voter turnout !!
Battlefords-Lloydminster: 12,889 of 47,651 (27%)
South Surrey-White Rock: 26,110 of 79,359 (34%)
Scarborough—Agincourt: 17,351 of 68,775 (26%)
Bonavista—Burin—Trinity: 12,593 of 58,771 (21%)
The CPC could have easily won South Surrey white Rock and Scarborough-Agincourt by getting off their behinds and voting.
Well, and it appears the NDP support in South Surrey cratered and just enough of it went to the Lib. The Conservative percentage of vote stayed pretty much the same.
Only the bc riding is a slight disappointment. Toronto was a lot closer than expected. And true to form the turnout for all was horrible.
I put nil weight on bye-elections at all times.
Sheer is a very capable politician. He needs to continue assembling his team. And he won’t grow support to 38% by being a hard-line Conservative.
Two large factors out of his control are the NDP – it needs to pull up to the high teens in support.
And the GTA real estate market. If it weakens (and there are signs) the LPC is toast. If it doesn’t it’s going to be a very close run thing.
Sorry DanBC, I went from Sask Watch to Sask Party over getting angry at voter turnout.

Re: ”I put nil weight on bye-elections at all times.”
I say the same, however the poor voter turnout is proof positive that we (CPC) didn’t learn a lot by losing the last Federal Election. Winning 3 out of 4 seats would have demoralized the enemy somewhat. The only good that came out of this by-election is that we now know the NDP won’t be the opposition for a while yet.
I say it makes the case for Polar bear over population . But then nature doesn’t follow the script of a coke commercial .
Watched CTV national news. ZERO! ZERO reporting! The usual Trump bashing some TV cooking show guy from France who apologized for abusing women. Yea that”s more important then bye elections in Canada.
Yes, true, but even Tulk is right on this point. By elections don’t mean much and turnout is often low.
The bigger story in BC today is the ENDP doing an about face and continuing the Site C dam project. Horgan campaigned strongly on wanting to kill it. It’s great watching lefties fight each other.
And Weaver the Deceiver is really really really really upset about it. But he won’t vote against his Marxist brothers.
But he’s really upset about it.
Weaver is the definition of a political whore

And he won’t grow support to 38% by being a hard-line Conservative.
And this is why us Trump supporting alt-right dedpise and disrespect your kind. You’re always there prostituting your principles “if only you loved me!! If you just vote Conservative we’ll show you that we can be just as kind and giving!!!”
Cucks, the whole freaking lot.
So what you are saying is that the conservatives need to be liberals to win? If that is the case, I’m not voting because there is no point.
you are correct.

Conservatives in White Rock had an opportunity to send the country a message about what Turdeau is doing and did not. If anything it was an endorsement. Sadly the left is making serious inroads in the West. The assumption that the West had some form of immunity to political bribery is false.
If conservatives think people will wake up one morning and vote these fools out then dream on. The CPC has no grassroots and remains has Harper left it. Top down. Reform was grassroots and they killed it off. We had lots of fiscally conservative Dippers in Reform.
When Jag Singh with the ‘special hat’ was elected NDP leader I knew the Liberals had just won the lotto and these election results show exactly that. You have to remember that ‘the left’ is never as open-minded as they claim; Jag Singh is going nowhere.
There is nothing wrong with Andrew Scheer just as there was nothing wrong with Harper but believe me, we are in for a long hard dose of Liberal.

Just thought someone should thank the West on Quebecs’ behalf.
Thanks West!
Had to access the venerable Humboldt Journal as the large Canadian Media couldn’t seem to find space for the provincial breakdown.
“On Sunday, Ottawa released the 2018-19 equalization payments for the federation’s so-called “have-not” provinces. The same six will receive cash through the $18.9-billion federal program: Quebec, Manitoba, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Ontario.
At $11.7 billion, Quebec will once again receive by far the biggest payment from Ottawa. It will be an increase of nearly $700 million compared to this year”
http://www.humboldtjournal.ca/provinces-feds-to-square-off-over-tax-proceeds-of-legalized-marijuana-1.23118232
A vote for the Liberal Party is a vote for Quebec rule and selfishness. What is wrong with Canadians?
Canadians are pathetic.
Replace the Beaver with the Mouse.
$11.7 Billion out of $18.9 Billion = 61 percent.
Population of Quebec = 8.4 million out of 36.7 million = 22 percent.
“Percentages of Canadians with below desired literacy and numeracy rates are staggering: 49% for literacy and 55%

Say what you like about the NDP vote collapsing or the poor voter turnout but the results of the by-elections were, for the most part, disappointing. Trudeau has proven to be nothing more than an inept dufus who has turned the office of Prime Minister into that of a circus clown yet the Liberals manage to win in 3 of the 4 contests. The stupidity of the majority of Canadian voters is staggering. Do they all stay on top of current events by watching the CBC? At least the Saskatchewan voters proved that all Canadians are not ignorant and uninformed as rookie Rosemarie Falk crushed both the NDP and Liberals.

ABC news has suspended its venerable chief
investigative correspondent Brian Ross for mistakenly reporting that Mike Flynn, the former National Security Advisor, would testify that Donald Trump directed him to make contact with Russian officials before the election.
That would have provided the clearest evidence yet of campaign ties to Russia, but the network later clarified that the request was in fact to look into ways that relations with Russia could be repaired – a rather different prospect….”

Americans sure must be enjoying the tiny little bit of Swamp Draining going on.
Their Swamp is obviously deep but Canada’s Swamp is an ocean, Canadians are drowned, there is no Opposition, no Non-Complicit Media, no Judicial Watch, No Civil Liberties Assoc. etc.etc and, funniest of all, Canada’s elected Swamp Drainer is yet another Trust Fund Millionaire from Quebec equipped only with a name and strings.
Boy, did Canadians get punked.
I wonder if the Democrats learned from the Liberals how to infest every part of a country with partisans.

I think you are a bit too pessimistic about the impact Singh will have. He is very personable. He is also much more authentic than Justin. In a general election, Singh will be given profile via debates,etc. And I believe have an impact on the Liberal vote.
Careful, you;ll be tarred a Liberal for saying that.

“It’s the minimum wage, absolutely. That will be an $80,000 hit for me, just in hours,” Besserer said. “Then you have to factor in the grey area of what all the other stuff that comes through the door is going to cost. Is it going to be 10 per cent more? 15? 20? Who the hell knows? Nobody knows.”

Traditional NDPers will support him. He is actually very charismatic. Many NDPers “lent” their vote to Liberals last time. They will not do so again, now that they have been betrayed on election reform. I think Libs will also lose youth support as they screw up the marijuana distribution (as it looks like they are doing). The question is how many Liberals voted for the NDP (or stayed home) when the Libs were in third place? The voting on the left shifts back and forth (somewhat) between Libs and NDP. I am not sure Singh will capture any traditional Liberals, as Jack Layton might have. Still, between Sheerer and Singh, future debates should expose Justin for the sham that he is. Both of the other party leaders will out perform him.

“HuffPo Laments That One Year in, ‘Trump Is Winning’”
“In the midst of much hand-wringing and anguished sighs, the Huffington Post has announced to its readers that after his first year in office “Trump Is Winning.”
“This is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to write and admit,” begins Earl Ofari Hutchinson in his essay, “Trump is winning.””
“Among Mr. Trump’s many victories, Hutchinson enumerates Mick Mulvaney’s appointment to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, Neil Gorsuch’s contribution to the Supreme Court, Scott Pruitt’s work at the EPA, Trump’s support of fossil fuels to make America energy independent, the RNC backing of judge Roy Moore in Alabama, the fizzling out of Russiagate, the passage of the tax reform bill, and the record-level stock market.
Yet all of these wins are small potatoes compared to Trump’s three top victories, Hutchinson claims.”

hoping to not overexpose him. Keep him fresh. If he brings nothing to the table I expect the ndp vote to go librano.

Baghdad Bob would laugh at you.
The byelections are a disaster in and of themselves and a harbinger of what’s to come. Scheer is never going to be PM.
What’s hilarious is all the Trumptards screaming about ‘principles’. These people don’t even understand what that means let alone have them. It’s also hilarious seeing the same people who complain about snowflakes claim that Singh looks ‘scary’. Honestly, I was surprised the NDP did so poorly.

All parties are left, which is why I’m not voting anymore. I don’t care who wins anymore because it will make no difference.
Agreed… the well has been poisoned… no point in drinking the rancid swill offered up as “democracy”… Trudopia and democracy is like oil and water… The retards of Trudopia just love the retard with the socks… enjoy the decline.
I miss Harper, but I see what you mean. Still, another priority for me is to get rid of the bozo who is currently being called the PM. I cringe everytime I see his picture. I still cannot believe Canadians are so dumb . . . but I guess many are.
