The key to winning an election is to offer policy solutions that set you apart from your rivals in the minds of voters. And this is where Erin O’Toole utterly fails. For 18 months he’s been Trudeau’s "yes-man" on almost every major issue that matters to Canadians. Driving Canada’s debt to a record high? (Trudeau spent more last year than all other Prime Ministers … [Read more...]
Where are the Defenders of Religious Freedom?
Independent MP Derek Sloan and independent Ontario MPP Randy Hillier are the only two politicians I’m aware of who dare defend the right of Canadians to worship God during COVID. So where are the rest of the politicians defending the fundamental religious freedoms of Canadians? This question immediately brings to mind that famous scene from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off when … [Read more...]
Premier Doug Ford Does the Unthinkable and Admits He was Wrong
Full marks for courage and character for Ontario Premier Doug Ford. He did what no other Canadian government official has done since COVIDiocy overtook the nation: he admitted he made a mistake. Premier Ford made the admission at his press conference yesterday, April 22, 2021. Now, if only other High Priests and High Priestesses of COVID (I'm talking to you, Bonnie Henry … [Read more...]
Municipal Police to Doug Ford: Never Go Full Retard
2021-04-18 18:45 Updated to include the 43 municipal police agencies who refused to obey Doug Ford's illegal/unconstitutional order. It's now clear (if it wasn't before) that Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his so-called 'conservative' government has completely lost the plot. While more and more American states end their lockdowns and mask orders, Doug Ford decided … [Read more...]
Lawyers, Carry a Gun to Protect Yourselves says Philippine DOJ Chief
"The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers," William Shakespeare famously said. In the Philippines, it appears someone (many argue it is Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte) took Shakespeare's words to heart. From 2006 to 2019, between 43 and 61 lawyers and other court staff were murdered. Many others were attacked but survived the attempt on their lives. The … [Read more...]
Promise Made Promise Broken: The Conservative Party’s Election Expense Rebate Clawback Debacle
After much digging into the Candidate Campaign Expenses Reports on the Elections Canada website, I'm finished the update to my latest special report: Promise Made Promise Broken The Conservative Party’s Election Expense Clawback and what my research revealed about why the Conservative Party can’t win in Quebec The Conservative … [Read more...]
BC’s Bill 4, Firearm Violence Prevention Act Makes Illegal Guns ‘Even More Illegal’
Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General, claims Bill 4, the Firearm Violence Prevention Act, will miraculously stop criminals who routinely ignore the Criminal Code of Canada. I think he’s drunk too much of his own KoolAid. “Gang members will have fewer options to buy, transport or possess real and imitation firearms under new legislation devised … [Read more...]
Minister Blair: Are you Ignorant? Or do you actually believe the lies you peddle in Parliament?
How many lies can Public Safety Minister Bill Blair spin in under 60 seconds? How fast can Shannon Stubbs, CPC critic for Public Safety, slap them down? Watch this short video and find out! [Read more below the video] https://youtu.be/1Zvu9CD4WR0 A small sample of Shannon Stubbs efforts to set the record straight on a litany of Liberal Lies in the House of Commons … [Read more...]
David Lametti Drops Mandatory Minimums for Serious Firearm Offences
Justice Minister David Lametti's performance during last Thursday's press conference for Bill C-22 rivalled Justin Trudeau's or even William Shatner's for overacting. "We're turning the page on a FAILED [overemphasised for dramatic effect] Conservative criminal justice policy." "It was an approach that did NOT [overemphasised for dramatic effect] make our communities … [Read more...]
Bill Blair Enrages Liberals’ Most Ardent Supporters with C-21
It's fascinating to watch Bill Blair get roasted for 'betraying' a host of lobby groups who want the government to confiscate my legally-acquired and legally-owned firearms but those same lobby groups refuse to support Firearm Prohibition Order Reform to keep illegal guns out of the hands of convicted violent criminals. Their position is a little bizarre, to be honest. I … [Read more...]
Smuggled Guns: Was Defeating Bill C-238 the right choice?
On January 27th, 2021, Liberal, Green and NDP MPs defeated Conservative MP Bob Soroya’s Private Members Bill C-238 – intended to increase penalties for anyone possessing a smuggled firearm – by a vote of 171 to 150. At best, it was a well-intentioned but poorly-drafted solution to the problem of smuggled guns. At worst, it was an abject failure to comprehend Section 96 of … [Read more...]
Who is Erin O’Toole? Someone I can’t vote for, says guest columnist Robert Alexander
On Monday, February 8th, CPC National Campaign Manager Fred DeLorey sent an email asking the question, "Who is Erin O'Toole?" Robert Alexander answers Mr. DeLorey's question in today's guest commentary. Dear Fred, Who is Erin O’Toole? Someone I can't see myself voting for, that's who. That man is neither my idea of a leader nor of a modern … [Read more...]
Joe Biden: America’s Gun Salesman of the Month for January 2021
Democrat American presidents are great gun salesmen. Newly sworn in Joe Biden is no exception according to data released by the FBI. In January 2021, over 4.3 million background checks were initiated by the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check (NCIS) system, the highest total ever, making Joe Biden America's 'Gun Salesman of the Month' for January … [Read more...]
Erin O’Toole’s Public Perception Problem
Think Titanic and Iceberg. We all know who wins, the Titanic’s ‘unsinkable’ billing notwithstanding. Erin O'Toole’s ship slammed into the Iceberg of public opinion sometime in late September 2019. Since then, every move the new Conservative Leader made ripped new and bigger holes in the ship’s hull. Today, the good ship O'Toole is sinking and sinking fast. This is a … [Read more...]
Parliament Talks Smuggled Guns and Mandatory Minimums
Parliament resumed this morning and MPs from across the country were chomping at the bit to make their first speeches on Bill C-238 in the House of Commons. Here are some of the highlights and lowlights via the Hansard for Monday, January 25, 2021. Kristina Michaud (Bloc Québécois) Avignon—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia, QC I am very pleased to speak to gun control, … [Read more...]
Erin O’Toole: Your Hypocrisy is Showing
On Monday, January 18, 2020, Press Progress ‘broke’ a story fed to them by a Conservative Party insider that Derek Sloan, one of the contenders in the recent Conservative Party leadership contest, accepted a donation of $131 from a ‘neo-Nazi.’ “Conservative Party of Canada Confirms Conservative MP Derek Sloan Accepted Donation From Neo-Nazi” screamed the headline. “Mr. … [Read more...]
Did Navdeep Bains Quit or did Justin Trudeau Force Him Out?
On January 11, 2020, Navdeep Bains – the former Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry – resigned his cabinet post. Bains also announced he would not run in the widely anticipated spring pandemic election. With no election officially in sight and a Liberal Party actively seeking candidates to run in the next campaign, why would Bains bow out now? My guess is Navdeep … [Read more...]
15 Signs of an Abusive Relationship: Government Edition
How do you know if you’re in an abusive relationship with your government? If your government tells you not to see your friends and family, you’re in an abusive relationship with your government. If your government says you must ask for their permission before leaving the house, you’re in an abusive relationship with your government. If your government tells you what … [Read more...]
Government Power Always Comes From the Barrel of a Gun
“Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” It’s said that Mao Zedong, the most famous of Justin Trudeau’s dictatorial Chinese idols, first uttered this maxim on August 7, 1927. I think it was Naheed Nenshi, Calgary’s Masked Mayor, on December 18, 2020. For the sake of today’s political commentary, I’m going to attribute this quote to Calgary Mayor … [Read more...]
Are Your Ready for a Pandemic Spring Election?
I've said for a while that Justin Trudeau wants a spring election. A Friday afternoon funding announcement is one more indicator that The Shiny Pony does indeed intend to send Canadians to the polls for a pandemic election. How he will engineer the fall of his own government remains to be seen. On December 11th, the Trudeau government quietly rolled out their latest climate … [Read more...]
Trudeau’s Virtue-Signaling Vaccine Giveaway
I literally laughed out loud when this headline scrolled through my Twitter feed: Canada will donate excess COVID-19 vaccine to poorer countries Excess? We're at least six months away from knowing if we have enough to meet demand from Canadians, yet we can commit to giving the vaccine away to other countries? Obviously, it's never too early for another virtue-signalling … [Read more...]
Virtue Signalling vs Action: Another Liberal Failure, Another National Disgrace
If Justin Trudeau is faced with a choice between solving a problem or talking about solving the problem, Justin Trudeau will opt for useless chatter and virtue-signalling every time. On December 3rd, 2020, that pattern continued when the Trudeau government tabled Bill C-15, An Act respecting the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, into the House … [Read more...]
Justin Trudeau: All I want for Christmas is a Pandemic Election
December 2, 2020, 16:00 hrs | Updated final analysis at the bottom of the page. Justin Trudeau will use his government’s December 1st fiscal update to force opposition parties to either lick his boots or send Canadians to the polls. This comes with some sharp unknowns for all sides, but the chips appear to be stacked in favour of the … [Read more...]
Is Widespread Election Fraud Coming to Canada?
Will the next Canadian federal election be marred by widespread electoral fraud? Some would contend election fraud arrived ages ago, albeit not in any organized fashion. But are those people correct? The answer, sadly, is both "Yes" and "No". Elections Canada says it identified over 85,000 names on the federal voter list who were not citizens prior to the 2019 federal … [Read more...]
Andrew Scheer Shoots Himself in the Face… Again
Hot on the heels of the Yasmin Ratansi scandal where the now-former Liberal MP hired her sister and lied about it, we learn Andrew Scheer stole a page from the Liberal Entitlement Handbook and took it to heart. Andrew Scheer hired his sister-in-law, Erica Honoway, to work in his constituency office. While technically this does not violate Parliamentary hiring rules, it's … [Read more...]
Yasmin Ratansi: Just Another Ethically-Challenged Liberal MP
What is it with Liberal Members of Parliament? Do they honestly believe the rules don't apply to them? That's the question at the top of my mind after news broke that Yasmin Ratansi, Member of Parliament for Don Valley East, hired her sister, Zeenat Khatri, and lied about it. CBC reports Yasmin Ratansi employed her sister from 2005 to 2011 when Ratansi lost her seat in … [Read more...]
Time to Incarcerate Trump Supporters?
Last Friday afternoon the media declared Joe Biden President-Elect of the United States of America despite the fact not a single official source has reached this conclusion. This is hardly surprising. The media hated Donald Trump long before he won the 2016 Presidential election and has spent the last four years trying to discredit him. Despite Trump proving every one of … [Read more...]
Liberals Worst Fundraising Quarter in almost a Decade: What Does It Mean?
On October 30, 2020, the Conservative Party sent out an email crowing (and rightly so) about their best fundraising quarter in Party history outside of an election year. From July 1 thru September 30th, the Conservative Party raised $5,659,091.83 from 39,451 individual donors. The Conservative Party also out-fundraised the Liberals in quarters one and two. While this is … [Read more...]
Did NDP Candidate Dan Coulter Just Make Electoral History in Chilliwack, BC?
Congratulations to Dan Coulter who, if the preliminary results hold, made provincial electoral history as the first NDP candidate ever elected in the provincial riding of Chilliwack, British Columbia. This is a feat nobody thought was possible as Chilliwack is arguably one of the most conservative electoral districts, both federally and provincially, in the entire … [Read more...]
Jagmeet Singh: Justin Trudeau’s Useful Idiot
On Tuesday, October 21, 2020, Jagmeet Singh, Justin Trudeau’s most useful idiot, proved what millions of Canadians already knew: the NDP leader is monumentally inept. The Liberal Party’s communications team might as well have drafted the statement Singh made prior to the confidence vote in Parliament. “People need help right now. They need confidence in the future. They’re … [Read more...]
