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."

Also, there is an oil terminal in Gretna Manitoba. Wouldn’t it be ironic to name an oil terminal, or refinery, after Greta T. The bigger the better.

Trump 2020 majority may be bigger than Ronny Rayguns second term.
It’ll be Yuuuge!
Honestly, what did black congressmen who treat their districts as fiefdoms ever do for their constituents? At most marginally increase the welfare while making themselves rich. After throwing all that federal money at the problem, the inner city slums were still shitholes.
Under President Trump’s watch, in less than three years, unemployment for blacks have reached all time low, and simultaneously welfare recipients are rapidly declining.
If you have pride and want a future for your children, not only would you vote for Trump, you would want to throw all those bums out too.
If Trump can get a quarter of blacks to vote for him, that would be a switch of about 2% of the electorate, for a net difference of 4%. Everything else being equal, that would be a huge change. And everything else won’t be equal, you can at least make the same argument for Latinos.
I never get tired of watching that clip about Mark Knopfler’s Guitars.
By the way prices for a Monteleone arch top guitar start at 39000 US and can be as much as 85000 US.

TWWO: The West Wants Out!
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-49899113
Blackie’s CBC reminds us this morning on the two most important issues facing Canadians. Abortion and dual citizenship. CBC will keep at Hitler Scheer today on these issues. And expect lots of wonderful coverage of Great Leader Groper as he plants trees in Ontario today, because Hitler Ford is cutting down every tree in the province. Meanwhile Blackie’s Toronto Star ignores Jason Kenney in the Toronto area and rants that memes should be regulated. Showing a picture of Harper with the phrase, “Miss me yet?”, the Star wants memes regulated on social media by the Liberals.
This is the Poutine fed Star flustered because we can’t regulate:
Memes are everywhere. And they’ve taken over Canadian politics. From anti-Trudeau blackface memes to this Stephen Harper “MISS ME YET?” meme, these are going viral, and no one can regulate it.
You know, as in Chinas basic dictatorship.
Transcript of Australia’s PM Scott Morrison Foreign Policy Speech at Lowy Institute
https://www.pm.gov.au/media/speech-lowy-lecture-our-interest
Is it worth reading? If only to see how Canada’s political leaders are out classed in today’s world.
I can only hope that at some point in the next parliament our leaders will begin to behave less like children and more like adults who have the interest of their citizens and their country at heart.
Foreign policy doesn’t matter in a postnational state that answers to the UN. Didn’t we here just cancel the party leaders’ foreign policy debate cuz the PM was a no show???? Scott comes off as a populist nationalist so he would only get 5% of public support in dumbed down postnational Canaduh:
– it also does not serve our national interests when international institutions demand conformity rather than independent cooperation on global issues.
-We should avoid any reflex towards a negative globalism that coercively seeks to impose a mandate from an often ill defined borderless global community. And worse still, an unaccountable internationalist bureaucracy.
-Globalism must facilitate, align and engage, rather than direct and centralise.
-Only a national government, especially one accountable through the ballot box and the rule of law, can define its national interests.
-And under my leadership Australia’s international engagement will be squarely driven by Australia’s national interests.
But then didn’t we here just cancel the party leaders’ foreign policy election debate cuz one was a no show????
Raymond M thanks for the excellent post.
Lots of “I’m voting for Energy” signs showing up in Ontario.
The Conservatives need to allow Ontario Premier Ford to come out of hiding and set his attackers straight. What are they afraid of?
Elizabeth Warren LIES (repeatedly) about not getting hired because she was a pregnant woman.

How to rig an election in Canada:
✅$600M to Media
✅ $7M to social media police
✅ $4M to social media influencers
✅ create debate commission
✅ participate 2/5 debates
✅ coffee with debate moderator
✅ ban media who didn’t receive partial sum of $600M
#cdnpoli #elxn43
Media that receive, or are promised, funding from a particular party should not be allowed to report on the election due to the conflict of interest. Reporting should be arms-length.
For example “The Toronto Star, like all good government-subsidized Canadian media, has been doing its best to neutralize the mammy songs.” “the Star’s new HD minstrel video is of sufficient quality to show that the banana on the T-shirt is, in fact, the beak of a toucan. Unfortunately, the new video is also of sufficient quality to show that the banana is instead stuffed down Justin’s trousers.” “Meanwhile, the CBC instantly came down with the world’s most chronic case of post-minstrel syndrome: tedious spinmeisters gaming out how to put the minstrelsy behind” and other examples from the witty Mark Steyn:

Angel, excellent post. The post sums up everything about this campaign. The federal Liberals are so corrupt in rigging this election, but nobody seems to care.
From the Ottawa Citizen on the state of our judicial system: “Two international students — both convicted in the gang rape of a young Ottawa woman — have skipped town and possibly the country.”
“Ousmane Kader Diarrassouba, 24, and Abdilahi Houd, 22, were convicted on June 28. The successful prosecutor, Juliana Martel, asked the judge to revoke their bail while they awaited sentencing but he refused.”
The judge refused and gave the perps 72 hours to surrender their passports to police. Surprise, they never showed up and likely skipped the country. The perps names speak for themselves.

What l found interesting about that item was that nowhere in it was the country of origin of either rapist mentioned.

No mention of the University of Ottawa. No mention of the Ivory Coast. However, still listed on Linkedin.com
A CBC typical hit-piece on Scheer. Fact-checking Scheers claim that the Trudeau government introduced legislation that allows for gang members to get away with as little as a fine.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/conservative-scheer-gun-gang-violence-crime-fact-check-1.5309485
There are indictable offences (e.g. murder), summary offences (less serious) and hybird. The hybrid offence gives the Crown prosecutor the ability to decide whether they want to prosecute as indictable or summary (tough or easy).
Trudeau’s new law converted many indictable offences into the hybrid category so that they would not automatically be considered as serious crimes.
According to one lawyer “Spratt agreed, calling it an “outright lie” to claim the bill lets gang members convicted of violent crimes off the hook with a fine.”
See the bait and switch there? “convicted of violent crimes” is not what Scheer meant. He meant they wouldn’t even be charged with a violent crime, let alone be convicted. Such as discharging a weapon in a shopping mall. Is that a violent crime? I would say yes but if the Crown prosecutor says no it becomes a summary offence with a fine of up to $5,000.
Not that I really care about black gang members dying in Toronto in record numbers…
Progressive Regional Municipality in bed with Marxist/anarchists
https://www.halifaxtoday.ca/local-news/bridge-protesters-prepared-for-police-apologize-to-commuters-1733129
The regional municipality has declared climate emergency but that’s not good enough for the Marxists. Deputy Mayor says “They didn’t apply for a permit [to protest], and it wouldn’t have been given a permit to my understanding. But they’re going to show up, so there’s not much we can do.”
“The police are going to close the bridge down for public safety reasons…to ensure everyone’s safety, including that of the protesters.”
Question? so did the party of Crooks & Thieves (AdScam,SNC ), Liars,Hypocrites, socialist,communist, fascist shut down a Canadian Newspaper or reporter with a class action suit. If this is so then that is the most troubling assault on Canadian Democracy ever to have happened in this country.
Is the history of 1930’s Germany, Italy, Russia revealing its ugly head again only in Canada.
Have the very far left stolen this country Yes they have and Canadians need to stop this come election day.
The Puppet and his cabal that are leading this country are very dangerous, Wake up Canada before its too late.
Blackie’s CTV had Big Chief Pam on their Question Period show this morning. They agreed that the number one issue this election should be racism. Great discussion that genocide still occurs, indians need more money, and all white Canadians are racist bastards. They did have time to discuss the second most important issue, dual citizenship.
I was in hospital emerg during early Friday afternoon, in considerable pain, and for two hours I found myself watching the emerg room’s CTV News network. I must agree with you. CTV News is excrable, and corrupt. P.s., doing ok now.
CTV has been execrable for a long long time, no doubt as bad as the Corpse.
They are the Liberal’s Pravda and Tass.
I gave up TV eight years ago. Don’t miss it at all.
Cable company keeps sending me letters asking if I’d like to sign up. I reply that I can’t afford to pay for their executive bonuses.
Haven’t owned a tv in more than 25 years. Addicted to radio.
I have 4 internet radios as well as xm and terrestrial radio. Try to listen to all sides of the issue.
If I’m in the airport or someplace where they only have cbc,ctv or global I get out of range and pull out my book.
That’s almost as bad as sitting in an airport departure lounge and the only thing that’s on the telly is the CBC Knows (Zip) thingy. Earlier today, while I was waiting to change planes, the place I was in not only had it on, but had the sound cranked up.
CTV.
My boycott of mainstream Canadian TV began on the night of a Chretien electoral win. I was stunned and angry not because of the usual BC complaint about the election having already been decided before the BC polls closed, but by the ugly cheshire cat grin on Lloyd Robertson’s puss. I have watched 0 minutes of MSM Canada since that night.
Was there even one “journalist” at Question Period currently working west of the Ontario border, even west of Toronto? Nope.
Enough said. Who cares what these jackbooters think? They haven’t a clue what the west wants, nor do they care.
Remember Scheer is the guy who has to prove his numbers, not the two faced liar who promised deficits under $10b and a balanced budget by this year. They should change the name of the program to Begging the Question. Period.
Alberta needs to collect her own provincial income taxes, Sask, Manitoba and BC too in addition to provincial corporate taxes.
We don’t debate, we decide. There is no debate to be had unless one considers being told what to do a debate. It’s over.
How long will it be before we’ll need a passport to enter Ontario and other eastern parasitic environs?
The eastern oblivious weanies say we’re angry. Hardly; we’re just getting started. Fury? They ain’t seen nothing yet.
They only thing they respond to is power and money; let it be so; let them cry when it’s taken away for our use.
“From the Ottawa Citizen on the state of our judicial system”
The Canadian Supreme court is suffering from “Granny Feelings” Old hags & Cockroaches who Judge Social Justice concepts, not the rule of law…then they define the NEW statute…Absolute powerful
The UK Supreme Court is the leader in “Granny Feelings” They kick sand into the Queens face & piss all over her… That MAY not bode well for those that are dis-loyal to the Queen @ election time…
Insane example of Canadian Supreme Court: They heard a case that the male applicant felt that been punished as an 18 year Adult was excessive… because he was a YOUNG 18 year old… I never bothered to
follow up on the final judgement…Silly & all feely stuff for the Grannies…. How it got to the SCC was enough, they felt they had the power to CHANGE Age Statutes (consent Etc)
JMHO
RIP Ginger Baker of Rock group ‘Cream’
https://youtu.be/vyftaay-pFA
Saw them play live years ago-
when Baker did his drum solo it was mesmerising.
Farewell Mr. Baker … I’ve missed you since 1971 …
https://youtu.be/8O5IgyDcohQ
If you’ve not seen it … you must … Beware Mr. Baker
https://youtu.be/d7h8CqYXEx0
Drop in at about 25:30 … and get a feel for what Mr. Baker meant to R&R … When Stuart Copeland says Ginger INVENTED Rock drumming … you best believe it.
Thanks for putting your video here. Saw the first 60 minutes this morning elsewhere and plan to finish it later. It is fascinating. Every drummer looked up to Baker. He was their hero.
Years ago, when I saw them in Montreal at the old Expo’67 grounds on a hot summer night, Baker did a drum solo that was so lengthy that Eric and Jack literally left the stage for a break. I was shocked. I’d never seen that done before and was wondering whether they’d come back. Of course, they played all their hits that night…it was terrific!
This video below is very moving…from when they were inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame. They had quite a time of it, didn’t they? Sadly, there’s only Eric left. Those guys loved each other. They were the BEST!
https://youtu.be/Ty-_EVO0HqA
You keep making me jealous of who you’ve seen live. Wonderful memories, I’m sure.

A nice Ginger solo in there. And young, young Stevie Winwood and Eric Clapton
Here they are doing “Can’t Find My Way Home”…
https://youtu.be/PJJnA6zEcGk
Kenji- can’t believe how close in time our above two posts are… 7:09 and & 7:10 pm … as we channel the same thing, the same loss, the same memories, in our similar but parallel lives.
Lordy, lordy, look at the young boomers in the crowd there, that was us!
Me: not dancing though, but with long straight hair! How utterly sweet it was! Glad to share this with you and the hippies at SDA.
Missing Ginger Baker, RIP man.
I was a more reserved, if not uptight fringe hippie of the early 70’s … had to be cool then … now when I listen to these tunes, I am swaying and bobbing my head like the crowd shots during “Do What You Like” … no longer caring about what the neighbors think.
“Do What You Like” is a long 15min. vehicle for instrument solos (Winwood’s organ solo and Clapton’s guitar solo are superb). I actually like Ginger’s drumming through the combo music better than his solo. Ginger Baker actually wrote “Do What You Like” … as an obvious vehicle for his band mates to do what they like, solo, along with the double entendre for us kids to … “Do What We Like”. No argument. Ginger’s bluesy-jazz-psychaldelic tempo has always grabbed me by the soul. The Jazz tempos of his drumming have always resonated with me.
“Can’t Find My Way Home” is a simply gorgeous counterpoint to all the other cuts on the Blind Faith lp which are hard guitar driven blues-rock tunes. Obviously little Stevie Winwood’s soft side. Love the way Ginger smashes the closed high hat on that tune. Now THATS how you punctuate a chorus lyric!
Long straight hair … the “uniform” of cool 60’s girls … *sigh* There was a clip in the film “Echos in the Canyon” that I saw a couple weeks ago that melted my heart like a 13yo boy with his first real girlfriend (she was 15) … of a painfully beautiful young Michelle Phillips with her straight long hair …
https://youtu.be/4M7gKZqgHn4
Wow … that clip almost made me cry
Don’t forget the guys wore long hair too.
Some of the old guys of today are wearing their white pony tails with pride. Funny thing …they still look good.
OTOH these guys still have it:
https://youtu.be/DVl-oXi-TpY
Didn’t know Winwood had those guitar skills. Superb musicians with a true FEEL for the music. Pete Townsend still has it too … when I saw what’s left of The Who a few years back.
No ponytail … never adopted the old gray ponytail thing … or god-forbid, the man-bun thingy … but I’ve never adopted the corporate close coif either. Pretty much just left my freak flag flying all these years.
Ah well, I’ll never sync with you guys musically. Funny thing, guess I am the uptight whitey here with my classical music (with traditional folk songs thrown in.)
This somehow passes for journalism in Canada.

Blackie flew into Belleville Ont on his two jets to talk about the environment. Of course he also ranted about Hitler Doug Ford. With all the social media uproar about his racist candidate in Victoria, a token Unifor reporter asked him about it. He explained that the candidate apologized. So thats the end of that.
I agree with Salim…

What does London Muslim Mosque excluding me from all-candidates debate in London North Centre, the PPC candidate, say about this mosque and its officials? And about the LibCons, NDP and Green’s complicity in trashing our democratic traditions?
I have repeatedly indicated most mosques in Canada and the US are dens for Muslim Brotherhood (MB) activism that directly subverts our liberal democracy. And our Establishment parties, except for PPC, are in full appeasement of MB and complicit in their global Islamist agenda.
Any vote, it is now amply evident and undeniable, for Establishment parties (LibCons, etc) is a sell out to the Globalist-Islamist global network. Only fools and those complicit with this network will insist otherwise.

This election will be the most corrupt in the history of the country. Not only will we have the illegals who came in through Quebec voting, elections Canada has just announced an additional four days to allow students at Trent University and Fleming College in Peterborough to vote. Needless to say these students who have been brainwashed through the public school system will be voting liberal. This will ensure our illegal M.P will get her livelong fully indexed pension. Isn’t democracy great?
