Well, boys and girls, I know I’ve been gone for awhile.

Shorter Jason Kenney

By ck, on December 20th, 2011

I hate everything and everybody but I sure love to spend their money. But, of course, isn’t that true of most of these Harpercons and those Rethuglicans south of the border these days? I’m only mentioning it because it seems that the speculation regarding Stevie Spiteful’s potential successor have begun. Jason Kenney happens . . . → Read More: Shorter Jason Kenney

We Don’t Have a Speaker! We Have a Stevie Spiteful Yes Man!

By ck, on December 13th, 2011

I honestly don’t know why people are so shocked about our adorable speaker, Andy Scheer. I always knew he would be a hyper-partisan speaker. Others speculated about whether or not he could be non-partisan, as well, despite the fact that the Harpercons would’ve preferred someone older.

Christie Blatchy Blatchford Misses John Wayne And Other Machismo–Plus Other Bonus Tracks

By ck, on December 10th, 2011

Poor Chrissie, down time from hanging around the Shafia trial and sounding “honour killing” dog whistles is proving not to suit her too much. Her latest column in the Nasty post proves as much. I guess during down time for Chrissie, she can only write so many autobiographical columns about being a bitter . . . → Read More: Christie Blatchy Blatchford Misses John Wayne And Other Machismo–Plus Other Bonus Tracks

By ck, on December 1st, 2011

It’s not like it hasn’t been done since 1999, they say. Let’s see how some of them justify these latest actions, shall we?

“Every political party in the House identifies its voters in one way or another,” Conservative MP John Williamson said. “This is an important part of the political process.”

By ck, on November 30th, 2011

I had heard nothing from the federalist media, particularly from those from the right who say nothing but sovereignty is dead in la belle province. The evidence they have? Well, some polls, which I do take with a grain of salt–the usual suspects–Leger Marketing. Sadly, that is all most Quebecers have to work . . . → Read More: Trying To Understand Politics In Quebec These Days–Part 1–Is Sovereignty Really Dead? The Potential Resurrection of Gilles Duceppe

By ck, on November 21st, 2011

Well, boys ‘n’ girls, we have a science and technology minister in ol’ Gary Goodyear who is a creationist and doesn’t believe in evolution. Ok, not all that surprising, given the gang of Christian evangelicals in our government.
