Canada

I’ve actually lost a few friendships over the last 5 years because of my intolerance of Liberal attitudes. As one of my more radical friends once said, those snooty butter-won’t-melt-in-my-mouth Liberal lunch ladies make me want to puke. My own disgust really came to a boil with the JWR incident. I’ll admit, I was pretty shocked how far some…[Read more]

of malfeasance perpetrated by the Liberal party and it’s individual MP’s. I think JWR will safely be re-elected as an Independent and rightly so, but I fear the rest of Canada will have short memories, or be fear-mongered into voting for these assholes again.

I hope I don’t offend anyone with this comment, but Carolyn Bennett is and always has been a privileged, patronizing, hypocritical cunt. In other words, a pretty typical white Canadian Liberal. (For the record, she was very briefly my GP in the 80s.)

Interesting story, glad to hear of it.
“It was extremely stupid and should have led to Zatzman’s immediate removal. Instead, Paul sought to ride out the kerfuffle. But Green activists refused to let the smear and threat slide. They mobilized online and my article “Crazed anti-Palestinian Green adviser must be removed” was widely read and share…[Read more]

I really should read those emails they keep sending me. 😬

I joined the greens for the sole purpose of voting for Dmitri Lascaris, whom I’d been following long before the leadership race. I even said that to the phone-banker who called sometime later to ask for money. He said he’d been hearing that a lot. I doubt the current party leaders would…[Read more]

I like Dimitri Lascaris who is not just a Canadian GP leader, he is a world leader.  And I hope to see him succeed.  German GP has gone neo-liberal.

When those areas take hundreds if not thousands of years to create their structures of life, there is no such thing as replacing them. Have seen examples as well of replacing where they do no good or are out so far away the projects cannot even be monitored.

Far-Right Italian Senate Candidate Made Big Donation to Doug Ford’s Leadership Campaign

Snip…

Cortellucci also has well-documented ties to Ford’s brother, former Toronto mayor Rob Ford – his family gave $30,000 in support of Ford’s 2010 mayoral campaign.

Doug Ford and Cortellucci last made headlines together when the former Toronto city cou…[Read more]

When I saw the title I figured it was just some rich person using their connections, but —

–chartering a plane and posing as casino workers means they’re not as moguly as all that; they have enough $ to charter a plane from canada to alaska, but not good enough connections to get whatever they want from their equally well-connected private…[Read more]

Yeah, the fine’s a joke for them. If they could afford to charter a plane, then the fine is just part of doing business. But the notoriety is a different matter. Unlikely it’s a coincidence that he “resigned” shortly after this news broke. I suppose his aspiring-actor wife might get some work in a Q Anon video; but otherwise, it’s looking like…[Read more]

I’m sure that the bad press will bother those rich fuggers more than the fine!

Commercial fisherman are a very disgruntled lot. They used to be part of a big free-for-all and the indigenous people, called “first nations” in Canada, received no special consideration. Now the fish are scarce and indigenous people often get a share by court order. I hear the fisherman complain about this because they sometimes use ham radio…[Read more]
