A Police Association Conspiracy?
Tweet
Has it really come to this?What ever happened to conservatives arguing based on principles. The gun registry is a bureaucratic giant, and should be defunded in order to pump more money into police and more money into already existing gun registration enforcement. Well now, that wasn't so hard, now was it? Instead, we get Garry Breitkreuz saying that there is some conspiracy to take away Canadians

A Whole Bunch of Money....

OK, OK. So Dalton messed up again. Well, the good news is we can all save a whole bunch of money on car insurance. Oh wait. Seriously, Dalton, the Geico Gecko is in trouble with the tea partiers already. Why do you have to be such a meany and make it worse for him? Is it the Australian accent and the fact that there's a hung parliament Down Under?Putting aside the fact that at

Margaret Atwood at it again

Margaret Atwood has become a rather comical figure today after reading an article in the Globe about her brain wave to try and stop the Fox News North channel from going on the air. Her argument is quite funny: “But it shouldn't happen this way. It's like the head-of-census affair – gov't direct meddling in affairs that are supposed to be arm's length – so do what they say or th

In my last column for the Libertas Post I got all cranky about the Green Party's decision to delay a leadership race. After all, unless the Greens' rhetoric about being a grassroots party is just bluster, one would think a leadership race would be just up their alley.Hey, pretty much every other third-string protest party seems to undergo the leadership shakes every few months.

The Tomb of The Unknown Soldier
Tweet
When I first visited Ottawa (about nine years ago) I had an entire day to myself. I was staying with a friend who lived along the Rideau Canal but he had to work so I set off to explore Ottawa, walking along the Canal (beautiful, btw) until I eventually got to the end by the Locks and then headed up towards the Parliament Buildings. Between that point and where I was going I came across the Nation

Well folks, I'm guessing that it's mostly due to the summer break, but there's been little or nothing to report on politically during these lazy days of summer... other than the breakdowns of the "Just Visiting Express", aka "The FailBus".With the various municipal election campaigns ramping up, and the return of Parliament, there's sure to be lots more to blog on.

How can a minority government of any stripe ever hope to implement it's election platform, when it's opposed on all sides by parties with completely different ideology? It's nearly impossible of course, but that's the wonderful situation Canadians find themselves in. When looking at the current makeup of the House of Commons, it's a wonder anything ever gets done at all. Clearly, threateni

Canada in minority government for many elections to come

The Bloc Québécois makes it nearly impossible for a national federal party to form a majority government. With a lock on around 50 seats neither the Conservatives nor the Liberals are likely to win enough ridings to gain complete control of Parliament. So Canada is stuck with minority governments and the resulting constant threat of elections and instability.There are only two ways for a majorit

Good news from Europe is that the proposal for allowing the EU Commission taxing power has been rejected. Giving the Commission tax powers would have been dangerous at best and disastrous at worse. Governments in the EU can at least claim democratic legitimacy when they raise taxes. If the people do not like taxes being raised, then they could at least theoretically vote for a lower tax party.But

Maxime Bernier on long form census
Tweet
I like Maxime Bernier. And the more he says the more I like him. This is a politician who embodies solid conservative, libertarian values! As to the long form census, I agree with him. In a democracy a citizen should not be forced to reveal personal habits under threat of imprisonment. Quite frankly, the long form census feels more like a marketing survey.

Prince Charles
Tweet
I am curious to know how you would feel to have Prince Charles as your Head of State? Regardless of your own feelings on the Monarchy, there really is nothing bad anyone can say about Elizabeth; but who is coming next, and how much power could that individual exert over our Governor General?
