Further to the post much farther below, it seems that in Quebec, it's just a wish away:Transportation Minister Julie Boulet, February 2010: “There are rules that govern the funding of political parties. It’s legal in Quebec to engage in political financing, for companies to donate.”Education Minister Michelle Courchesne, December 2009: “The majority of private enterprises donate to all th

At the beginning of the Olympics in Vancouver, I had some respect for this guy - turns out he's a pretty well-decorated Olympic short track speed skater. But then he turned into a whiny baby after last night's short track race. Yeah that's right - the one where Canada got the gold and silver (according to my new hero, Rod Black. Of course, in actuality, it was gold and BRONZE, brainiac)!

Michael Ignatieff’s year in Canadian politics has been marked by ups and downs. He walked into the Liberal leadership earlier last year acclaimed as the new leader of that party after the failed leadership of Stephane Dion. In order to differentiate himself as a different kind of leader — one that could stand [...]

The belivers at the Washington Post have written a good article on the ineffective and sinking chicken littles. A lot of the so called sciebce we see is taking the extrapolations of the flawed models to absurd lengths and then touting the result. There are many many variables and even some of the warmists admit that conclusions are being made with inadequate data. Argument by anecdote has long bee

I gave Danielle Smith's "alternative budget" a bit of a hard time yesterday, and, although some of her supporters were little rankled about it, looking at their complaints, I noticed a cotinuing absense of substace in response.As Ted Morton calls them, "The New Supects" complain, still, about how the current government is't "conservative" enough, apparently, of the opinion that if a bad id

The TTC doesn't help alleviate the stereotype of Torontonian arrogance. Following public outcry at their inefficiency, TTC employees are rambling against the public and apparently want to add insult to injury through some work-to-rule action. Where on earth does the TTC find them?
Every public transit system will have its ups and downs, as much as every business has good and bad employees. Commo

Another waste of taxpayers money to do with the Olympics is a handbook devised by some over paid/under intelligent Vancouver City staff bureaucrat. This maroon (with directions from his/her higher ups) came up with a ridiculous 128 page etiquette guide on how greet foreign guests during the Olympics. (see manual here)
A couple of gems from [...]

Despite the imposition of a code of silence on Mr. Rebagliati by the federal Liberal Party, for whom he plans to run in the next election, the former Olympian spoke openly about his desire to see marijuana legalized."Prohibition didn't work; this isn't working," he said after running with the torch, which some have even said resembles a giant joint. He was ultimately allowed to keep his gold m

The palpable desperation of the Massachusetts dems has resulted in some pretty awfull ads. The Brown campaign is apparently going to sue. coakley is not having a good time.And this one which UPS is quite upset about.

Good times are here again! The Liberals have released an attack YouTube (not an ad, just earned media bait — full irony understood here). The video implies Canada is acting like a third world country:
“Cover-up: a description far more familiar to other countries, until now.”
Cover-ups. Where have we heard this before?
[It] shocked the Canadian [...]

Norman Spector has it right on the money. He does however have the title wrong. His post should be titled "What the Liberals know we have forgotten".The Liberals know all about cover-ups:- Prorogation over ad-scam- Shutting down an inquiry over the Somilia affairNow the Liberals are launching their small and petty attack ad campaign. Yet another broken promise by Iggy to not "go negative".Pett

...at least by comparison to 2009. That might not be saying much, but it's something.
When Ignatieff fired Warren Kinsella from his war room last month, I predicted that act of good housekeeping would stop the party's free-fall in the polls, and lead to a slow but steady diminution of the gap between the Conservatives and Liberals. It's too early to call it a trend, but in the month since

Seeing as how most of the media are doing their “Year In Review” wrap-ups this week, I thought I’d do something along similar lines. However, mine is bent towards getting some badly-needed feedback.
I should explain: I’ve been blogging about politics since 2004, and six years is a long time to keep up a web [...]

I am so mad at these two LIBERAL provinces, for their sucking up to the "Euro" crowd of dummies, for their bashing of CANADA the country I love, I could spit bullets! Gerretsen and Quebec Environment Minister Line Beauchamp held a joint news conference to say the two provinces -- home to two-thirds of Canadians -- will continue to work together to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. They also

Liberal Press Release December 11, 2009...Mr. Dosanjh said the secretive manner in which this government continues to operate – the cover-ups, hiding of evidence, contradictions, intimidation of witnesses and censoring of politically damaging documents – is why an independent public inquiry is needed. Dosaganjh call this government "lawless" on CTV Question Period December

Hello Canada, It's Day 93 which means I have seven more days of writing on my move to Ottawa. I've been asked to continue writing past the 100 day mark so I'll see what I can do. It's been a great process of waiting and excitement, frustration and joy. When I first had the idea to document this process I thought I would just take some pictures and videos, and talk about Spark

Just went down and got flu shots, both H1N1 and seasonal. No line ups, maybe took 5 minutes.Nice lady who stabbed me...twice...commented, "Thank heavens Tiger Woods piled into that tree, so the media has something else to talk about, eh?"I have a soft spot for sadists with a sense of humor.After the deed was done, and I quit crying, she warned that I should take a seat and hang around for at lea

Fox News asks the tough questions, and left wing organizations make cover ups. The United Nations, which has been telling the world that it must cut back dramatically on its greenhouse gas emissions, has finally decided to practice what it preaches. But the world body isn't coming clean on the full costs of its self-greening effort with the member states who foot the bill.After Fox News began ask

Hello Canada,So it's day 89 in our move to Ottawa. Over the course of these one 100 days my goal has been to be completely honest with the ups and downs of taking this step of faith. I've come to realize that writing about the process is as much therapy for myself as it may be for you.I have to admit that today is one of those down days. Although a lot of amazing things ha

That just prior to a major international conference on AGW, where the principle focus of the agenda will be the redistribution of at least $100,000,000,000 to as much as $250,000,000,000 from western nations to the rest of the world...That a story has just broke on the internet about how someone hacked into the computers of the Hadley Climate Research Unit, a group of scientists central to the ent
