Dear CRTC, Please Protect Me from Choice.

Because, you know, Bell Canada is so small it needs protection from competition.

Conclusion

The Saviour Sanctions Child Soldiers

Change.

“When a little boy is kidnapped, turned into a child soldier, forced to kill or be killed — that’s slavery,” Obama said in a speech at the Clinton Global Initiative. “It is barbaric, and it is evil, and it has no place in a civilized world. Now, as a nation, we’ve long rejected such cruelty.”
But for the third year in a row, Obama has waived almost all U.S. sanctions that would punish certain countries that use child soldiers, upsetting many in the human rights community.

Next Time, Shoot to Kill

Oh, I don’t know, maybe because the Pope didn’t take up arms, commit war in civilian garb, or kill a medic while pretending to be wounded?

“There were, we are told, equal reasons why the current pope was not considered responsible for his membership in the Hitler Youth when he was precisely the same age (15),” he notes. “Certainly we did not try the Pope at Nuremburg, thank goodness, and it is fairly ludicrous that the US decided to try Omar Khadr as if he were an adult.”

Should have just shot the traitor.

It’s Always about the Process

What is it John Gormley says about the left and process? Delay, obstruct, destroy.

“When I started this I was anti-stadium, but I’ve changed my outlook on it. I’ve been listening to people and I think the consensus is that people want (a new stadium), they just don’t want this. There needs to be a dialogue here, with the process and with the funding model.”

Shorter Dawn: I’m getting ridiculed for being a wing-nut.
If you’re going to the game tonight against the BC Felions, please respect the trash and don’t feed the hippies.
