Coulda Had Max

Beauty.

A pre-election chill has descended over some environment charities after Elections Canada warned them that discussing the dangers of climate change during the upcoming federal campaign could be deemed partisan activity.
 
An Elections Canada official warned groups in a training session earlier this summer that because Maxime Bernier, the leader of the People’s Party of Canada, has expressed doubts about the legitimacy of climate change, any group that promotes it as real or an emergency could be considered partisan, said Tim Gray, executive director of the advocacy group Environmental Defence.

The possibilities are endless.

Different Rules for Trudeau’s Friends

Vivian Krause is asking some challenging questions about why certain U.S. funded charities in Canada don’t have to provide full historical disclosures:

Why did Prime Minister Justin Trudeau order his revenue minister to stop the Canada Revenue Agency from auditing politically active charities? Was it to protect his best friend and former principal secretary, Gerald Butts?

Those are just two of the many questions asked by Vivian Krause during a sold out Calgary Chamber of Commerce luncheon Wednesday at the Fairmont Palliser Hotel and during a scrum with reporters afterwards.

I’m seriously considering sitting the next federal election out.

Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer is not going to win the Oct. 21 election if he’s running scared of Liberal fear-mongering about Islamophobia by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
 
An indication that’s happening is the party’s recent veto, without explanation, of Salim Mansur from seeking the Conservative nomination in London North Centre.

Simply appalling.

Funny.

“The people that live here, they just want their little world the way it is,” said Malkin. “They paid five, seven million dollars to buy a house in the community. Do you think they should have to have it changed because our mayor wants to have the missing middle show up?”

I seem to remember that sentiment being what conservatives were excoriated for.

West Vancouver, in John Reynolds old riding, is currently represented by Liberal Pamela Goldsmith-Jones who won a majority in her riding in 2015 with 55%.

The average house price is $2.7M.

It doesn’t really matter to me what Quebec demands of it’s immigrants. Good for them, when there is demand, you can be stingy. I would like to point out that if Saskatchewan or Alberta were to put these restrictions on new immigrants (which we should), we would be blasted for being racist Nazi’s.

Quebec, though? Hmmm, well, there is an election on, you know.
