care at all what Trudeau is doing. He just needs to fade to black. We have a mess that will take decades to clean up. Do not want to hear that twits name.
... and one more thing. Here's a measure of how much I detest the name. This is very petty of me, I know, I just can't help myself.
There's a company that manufactures and sells kitchen-related products. They're called "Trudeau". They look pretty decent but I cannot force myself to even pick one up and look at it, let alone buy it. I wonder if there's anyone else out there who does the same.
Agreed. Times ten. I take pains, and go to the extra effort of referring to him as He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. That's a lot of difficult typing, but worth it to never see his name again. And I wish the powers-that-be would also eliminate his vacuous face from all forms of media.
I realize a many people believe that. But Putin has not done anything negative to me personally. Hard to assess someones character by what is being printed and journalled by biased individuals. I am just not so quick to judge because I have friends that are familiar with living in Russia and their opinion is not as negative about Putin as some who do not live there. So, I just don't know?
Truthfully, what someone has done to us personally is not really much of a gauge though it is true most media are biased, the question is how much and against whom.
I have a Russian friend who likes Putin as well, though she did admit her family was Communist party so she was privileged.
Luckily, I am not so quick to judge either, but when one's legitimate opponents have a habit of being poisoned, imprisoned (and dying suddenly in jail) or jumping off balconies, that adds up to evil to me. When one suspends the Constitution to stay in power longer, yeah, that's evil. When one is allied tightly to the CCP, I'm rolling with evil.
GerryT, when you mentioned opponents being poisoned and jailed, I thought you were writing about Hillary Clinton and Biden. And then I read on and realized it was about Putin.
True. Russia is a different place. The citizens have a very high sense of national security. They also, as a group, are content with Putins leadership. Check out Konstantin Kisin on Trigonometry.
That said, I compare Butts and his relationship to Carney and the laurentian elites , to Rasputin.
“Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin was a Russian mystic and faith healer who gained significant influence at the Russian Imperial court in the early 20th century, particularly with the family of Tsar Nicholas II. He was known for his purported ability to heal the hemophiliac heir to the throne, Alexei, and his controversial presence in the royal family's inner circle. Rasputin's influence and scandalous behavior ultimately contributed to his assassination in 1916. “
As always, I appreciate your writings. With respect to the Confederation bridge, when you build something of that magnitude, then expect to not have tolls that keep it maintained, (I am assuming the capital cost is long paid for) that is simply unrealistic. Highways are expensive, typical bridges even more so. A 21km long state of the art bridge will never be cost free. So the toll decrease is a feel good. If I was there, I'd appreciate the day-to-day savings but the reality is that the bridge costs will now come from some other Federal account, and likely add to the country's debt.
As usual, he appeals to Maritimers for their support, however ill-conceived it is. They consider the CBC a source of real news, and it appears that’s all they watch.
While Putin has done many illegal things. Assassinating dissidents abroad etc. He’s an easy “mark”
The wests biggest problem are the “Putjns” within our own administrations/countries.
Many western politicians are bought by Bid Ag, Big Pharma, The Big NeoCon War machine and let’s face it by big billionaires who donate to their campaigns and political parties one every country (Gates’ and Soros’s of the underworld)
Weston’s, McCains and Irving’s and those in the elite Laurentian class are all part of the problem looking down on us serfs.
We need to stop pointing the finger at overseas oligarchs & dictators and look at the many fingers pointing back at us and clean our own house.
With no true accountability for any of the many many transgressions of the last few decades from 911 Afghanistan Iraq Syria Domestic fraud in Canada by our many governments. The silencing of the lambs (JWR & others) by Trudeau and Carney and their inner circles. The destruction of democracy during the Covid lies. ZERO accountability!!! Until that happens the west needs to stay quiet about labelling others as villains. We are surrounded by them in our own house!
Brian, Canadians need to FIGHT for & PROTECT OUR FREEDOM of SPEECH which CBC is working along with the Gov't of Canada to take AWAY! I flushed Trudeau down the toilet long ago! When the Conservatives get into power the job is to bring back OUR CANADIAN VALUES along BEING CANADIAN!!
If you believe in free speech, it is not followed up by "but..."
If you don't believe in free speech, the day will come soon enough where you will.
Over the years, the term "Laurentian elite" has, for me, emerged from the depths of epithet into the foreground and I now know what a malevolent force these people are.
From my experience, speech is never free. Most people realise this after they speak more than they could afford. Easily done and the internet makes the fee retroactive. Speak wisely is all I can say, from personal experience.
I guess that depends on how we are defining free speech. Your definition is not the generally accepted one politically and philosophically, which is what I was referring to. Nonetheless, your point is valid and well taken, wise words.
More people are arrested for speech crimes in the “democratic” west these days. Our elites have never been more afraid and out of touch with their citizens. In fact they utterly despise them.
Re; the photo of PET and Streisand, it reminds me of the old Rodney Dangerfield joke; " my niece is ugly and she married an ugly guy, now they have two VERY ugly children".
I miss Harper!! Everytime i say that its a war on me. About how he sold us to China without our knowledge..but that deal has been renegotiated.. blaaaaa
Free expression not sure why they are having a hissy fit over a paster.. its not for me to say because if i do i will be attacked ..lol its music.. how bad can it be. He wears Trumps hat maybe thats it!
In the meantime Carney announced that in September at the United Nations he stands with Palestine! Good grief! Disrespectful to.our Jewish Canadians! Carney must go, he isn't a good fit for our 🇨🇦Beliefs! Carney is going to ruin Canada worse than Trudeau🙏he is gone soon!
The UN is largely made up of Muslims, who happen to be the protected class in Canada now. The whole UN/WEF contingent aims to create a global government that bows to Marxists-Islamists. And it is to these that Canada must use now submit. Sadly, the ignoramuses who elected Carney probably have little understanding of what those terms (Marxist-Islamist) really mean. For instance, a niece in Nova Scotia seems to think a Muslim is a Protestant branch of Christianity. I want to cry.
Why is our Prime Minister making announcements and signing documents like he is a President with the power of executive orders? I guess we sort of have the same thing with the PMO, Privy Council, and Orders in Council.
Speaking of which, visited Ottawa for the first time last week and got to see Sir John A's office and Georges Etienne Cartier's office. Highly recommend tour of East Block, fantastic historical resource.
While there, I also did some very rough math on how many billions are tied up in political buildings, it's not a small number.
Thanks for Sonny's Dream. As an ex-sailor, this lovely melody is particularly haunting to me. Now, it's stuck in my head, too. Not a bad thing, though.
Do not

Omg I do the same thing. Lol
Yay you! Awesome, I am not alone.
Haha yup…just seeing the name is nauseating 🤢
Ditto. Can not buy them.
Oh yes, definitely in your camp on that one. Try the Dollar Tree, I have found really great kitchen gadgets there. And no t_____u
Agreed. Times ten. I take pains, and go to the extra effort of referring to him as He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. That's a lot of difficult typing, but worth it to never see his name again. And I wish the powers-that-be would also eliminate his vacuous face from all forms of media.
I just call him the turd, or black face cunt..both sum up the POS in fewer words😉
They do indeed!
The mess will never be cleaned up with the liberals in power. They created the mess, how can they possibly be the solution?
Putin bashing is old. Just like “ orange man bad”
Look at Russian history and then temper your criticism with reality.
One of the most incredible statements made was by minister Jolie who stated that supporting Ukraine was necessary for “ a regime change in Russia”
Millions have died in a proxy war that really should not have happened.
Blaming Putin because he invaded Russian speaking Ukrainian territory is simplistic.
War is wrong
What could have stopped this war from happening?
Examine that historically and perhaps you could reach a different conclusion.
Apply the same principles to the Israel Gaza war
War is wrong
NATO and the USA taunt Russia until they react and then torture Putin further with the “evil man” sobriquet.
I don't argue with much of this, though Putin is still an evil man.
I realize a many people believe that. But Putin has not done anything negative to me personally. Hard to assess someones character by what is being printed and journalled by biased individuals. I am just not so quick to judge because I have friends that are familiar with living in Russia and their opinion is not as negative about Putin as some who do not live there. So, I just don't know?

GerryT, when you mentioned opponents being poisoned and jailed, I thought you were writing about Hillary Clinton and Biden. And then I read on and realized it was about Putin.
Lol, I can understand that error. Looks like Obama might be in just as deep.

Nice comparison.

Carney said lowering these rates will make life affordable for Canadians. I live in Ontario. Thanks idiot!!

As is written we must:
“Remove the log from your own eye first”
You forgot to mention the Desmarais family,who have held the LPC in thrall since the days of PET.
Who are these dissidents abroad?
Brian, Canadians need to FIGHT for & PROTECT OUR FREEDOM of SPEECH which CBC is working along with the Gov't of Canada to take AWAY! I flushed Trudeau down the toilet long ago! When the Conservatives get into power the job is to bring back OUR CANADIAN VALUES along BEING CANADIAN!!
Trudeau doesn’t deserve an ounce of our concern or even anger!! He’s gone and forgotten!!!
He deserves something, and freedom is not it.
Agreed!!

And visa versa.
I miss Harper too, but I am not sure he is right about Putin.
Re; the photo of PET and Streisand, it reminds me of the old Rodney Dangerfield joke; " my niece is ugly and she married an ugly guy, now they have two VERY ugly children".
Thank you for the laugh, love it.
Mark Carney is destroying Canada!
Exactly as he did while advising Trudeau, the lamebrain moron.
Great column. Yes I'm into the celtic stuff.
I miss Harper!! Everytime i say that its a war on me. About how he sold us to China without our knowledge..but that deal has been renegotiated.. blaaaaa
Free expression not sure why they are having a hissy fit over a paster.. its not for me to say because if i do i will be attacked ..lol its music.. how bad can it be. He wears Trumps hat maybe thats it!

Delete the word “use” above.

Carney is missing even when here’s there. He just doesn’t know what the people need! Or he just doesn’t care
