Who cares? Right now the Conservatives being in power are keeping our country together. The west is finally being treated like all the other provinces. This is keeping us in the game. Two posts today got me thinking about what has been going on lately. We are letting the Liberal media dictate to us what we should think, and this must stop.

I already miss the proroguing of Parliament. I haven't been able to watch QP this week, but I don't really need to because it's just back to the same garbage as before Christmas. It's time for MP's to take a look at their responsibilities. First and foremost, they need to listen to their constituents. We don't need 308 MP's going to Ottawa to argue about this bill or that. We have too many

CTV's Craig Oliver goes on the attack, sort of....Oliver looks like an owl with his glasses, and he was very confrontational towards Minister Day. I don't know if he thought he was scoring points but he came across as just plain rude. Minister Day calmly answered his questions and made Oliver look like a fool. The supposedly big scandal of the day is that Flaherty used a government plane. Okay,

I was thinking about what to post, and looking for something that struck a nerve with me today. It was a beautiful spring like day out, so I really didn't pay any attention to politics. I did start my tomatoes today, if they all come up I will have more than 250 plants to get rid of. No one in my family actually eats the things, unless they are in a pasta sauce. Tomorrow I plant my petunias, dust

We are getting closer to spring everyday, it's light out in the morning and still light on the drive home, not like in the winter when you get up in the dark and arrive home in the dark.

People have talked about ending poverty for decades by sending massive amounts of money to third world countries. It's not working. We are seeing terrorists who are intent on killing people and continuing to oppress their own women. This is working. The key to both problems is education. If you educate the people, they can create new businesses and opportunities for their families. Look at any co

I loved all the athletes, they showed their pride in Canada, and were proud to watch the maple leaf fly high for them and our country. During the Olympics, the medals were for Canada, not any specific province within Canada. All athletes competed for Canada and showed their pride, whether they won a medal or not, all were united, and this united our country like no other time I can remember. It wa

I found two interesting videos on the National Post site, one has a Toronto councilor going bananas and the other has Robert De Niro on SNL, I ask, who is the comedian!First up the Toronto councilor, she would be funny if she wasn't so serious about saving the world from Conservatives. She really loses it. I hope someone runs against this far left piece of work.Then we have this really funny piec

Do the greenies even understand what hypocrites they are, or are they just such followers that someone like Gore can blind them to real problems with real solutions?Perfect case in point, the lawsuit against Syncrude because 1500 ducks died. Now I am really sorry that those ducks died the way they did because that made them inedible. What I fail to see is why one incident in 20 years makes this an

What an Olympics! Our athletes were excellent, Vancouver was exceptional and a party was had by all. I have never seen so many people wearing their hearts on their sleeves as I saw at these Olympics.

What a joy it has been to watch our athletes! I have been on the edge of my seat many times cheering for our athletes. My favorites are Virtue and Moir, they are so young and full of life they are a joy to watch. Here is their gala performance, it's an updated version of the one I posted earlier.

Congratulations to Joannie Rochette, she deserved the bronze medal for her performance. She is also a shining example of what the Olympic spirit is all about. She could have quit after her mother died, but she keep on her path and succeeded, for her Mom!Now, if our politicians would just get with the Olympic feeling, we might see some progress in this country. I find it typical that CTV would blaz

This is the story....CTV informs us that 11.5 of the medals out of 15 so far have been won by our Canadian women. So, men, what's up with that?Have all our men been turned into metrosexuals more interested in fashion than sports? Or are our women just more competitive and capable? Seriously, where have all our competitive men gone? CTV is even called today "Woman's Wednesday" after 4 medals in

I of course cried watching Joannie Rochette skate for her Mom. I don't know how she kept it together, but she did, and she deserves to be in third. Watch her skate here. A gutsy performance. I have no doubt her Mom is smiling down on her tonight. It kind of puts everything into prospective. When one of our athletes doesn't win, maybe we should think more about what they had to do to get to the O

Congratulations to our gold medal winners in ice dance, Virtue and Moir! They showed everyone what dance was all about. They floated over the ice, and made it look effortless. Watch the performance here!Outstanding! What I liked about their performance was the understated outfits, the lack of tricks and the solid dance moves. Too many pairs let the costumes overwhelm their performances. Never hear

CTV is determined to make sure everyone knows that the "Own the Podium" program is a failure. Well CTV is the failure. They fail to understand that Canadians are pumped about our athletes and we understand that they can't all be on that podium. Yet CTV continues to mention the fact that we are not in top spot on the podium. Hey CTV, we NEVER have been! We just finally won our first gold on Cana

Conservatives don't like to tell other people how to live their lives. So the idea of going out and protesting is foreign to us. Same goes for boycotting something. Lefties on the other hand use both protesting and boycotting as a powerful tool to get what they want. It can be effective (short term) like the prorogue scheme that was led by the opposition parties. It can also go seriously wrong li

The Canadian pride at these Olympics is outstanding. Our athletes are doing better than we could have hoped for, and the media is whining. What a bunch of do nothing babies. It appears that a lot of the empty seats at events is because the media is staying in the brier patch instead of actually going to the events. It appears the media have prorogued the Olympics.

It's getting to the point that even the MSM can't ignore the Climategate fraud anymore. Every day now we are getting more data that shows what a house of cards global warming was. Funny how Gore and Suzuki are so quiet now. Maybe the Bug Dr. is hoping we will forget his wholehearted drinking of that koolaid.

Whole Foods doesn't want to use Alberta oil. Well I have news for you, Ontario doesn't get their oil from Alberta, neither does Quebec, they get blood oil from the Mideast. The oil gets shipped over the ocean, in huge oil tankers that pollute the ocean and kill fish like seals and tuna and dolphins and whales.

It appears that the Liberal leader is in Vancouver enjoying the Olympics. Shouldn't he be in Ottawa holding fake meetings with Liberal supporters disguised as experts?Like the CEO of TD Canada Trust?

Got money in TD Canada Trust? Is your skin crawling and you can't figure out why? Get an itch every time you pass by a TD Canada Trust branch? You might be suffering from a Liberal infestation. It disguises itself as a totally innocent bank, but uses it's disguise to slam the Conservatives. It spouts Liberal talking points and is arrogant enough to think that you will buy it's disguise.

Not just gossip, but totally biased reporting! I only link to this video so you can see how biased and incompetent CTV is. Bambi totally leads the discussion with her point of view, and then deliberately mismanages the time so that the Conservative MP does not get to respond. She even laughs about it. Sick. Gossip is normally harmless, this is not harmless, this is a concerted attempt to discredit

So the IPCC is taking some real heat, and your everyday person on the street is starting to get the picture. I have never been fooled into thinking that "global warming" was what the eco-nuts were concerned about, they forgot about REAL pollution in their rush for grant money and jobs.

So, the feminists blathered all over the place about a Focus on the Family ad, yapping about how it should not be allowed, and giving it lots of advance publicity so that we were watching for it. We have satellite so we get the American commercials. If the feminists hadn't created such a fuss, I would have had no clue that this commercial was an anti-abortion ad.

All quiet on the abortion front. If you didn't read the blogs, you would never even know that Iggy had blundered badly by listening to his far left feminists. Those ladies of the "pink" book, which of course is sexist just by choosing "pink" as their colour, think helping women and children in the undeveloped countries means abortion.

Back in November when it was announced that the G7 finance Minister's would be meeting in Iqaluit in February, it really struck me as perfect, I still think so.
