Yes, boys ‘n’ girls, as Dr. Dawg always says, Conservatism of today is not a politics; it’s a diagnosis. And Mr. Robbie Anders has a very bad case of it. Goes right up there with calling Nelson Mandela a “terrorist.” Our little Narcoleptic Neanderthal woke up temporarily to accuse Thomas Mulcair of “precipitating” . . . → Read More: Rob Anders Breaks His Own Record Of Stupidity: Peter Stoffer Call Him a “Dickhead”

Well, I’m sure many Liberals can rest easy, for now–the fetus fetishist, Trifon Haitas, lost the nomination to advertising exec, Grant Gordon last night. There was concern that the Liberals being in such bad shape, that it was ripe for a take-over from single issue interest groups, like a fetus fetishing group looking . . . → Read More: The Anti-Choicer Loses Liberal Nomination For Toronto-Danforth And The Riding is the NDP’s To Lose

What a year 2011 was. Who would have thought in January that the Conservatives would, by May, have a majority government? That the Bloc, so long a dominant force in Quebec, would be reduced to numbers not seen since the early 1990′s? That the Liberals would be reduced to third party status? That . . . → Read More: The Year That Was: Canadians Politics in 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.

Speculation regarding Jack Layton’s successor had already begun within days following his death. Personally, I thought it was in poor taste. Kind of predatorial, really. I mean, couldn’t we bury Jack first before getting to this new business?

Jack Layton’s state funeral service couldn’t have been more fitting. Different kinds of music being played, from classical to Quebecois from Martin Deschamps to pop to a gospel rendition of a 60′s Youngbloods’ classic by Julie Michel. The musical selections also represented something Jack Layton strived toward, besides social democracy; diversity. In fact, not . . . → Read More: Jack Layton’s Funeral, Learning About Jack, The Family Man. A Few Words To Critics,

I’m stealing this directly from Dan Gardner. It’s too perfect to leave on the Twitter floor.
This video defines ‘blowhard’ - Mark Bonokoski in a jealous rage over the attention given to Jack Layton on his passing. These guys just can’t stand a lefty taking up media space they feel they alone deserve to occupy. It’s driving. them. insane.

Yesterday, Christie Blatchford wrote a column for the National Post full of back handed compliments to Jack Layton on the day of his death. Between the lines, however, lay a great streak of right-winged opportunism, attacking the man and his party for their beliefs and actions.

Stephen Taylor must be so proud.
“By the end of today’s news cycle… …there will be no part of his anatomy left unkissed… “

I just learned that Jack Layton passed away from cancer much too young early this morning, surrounded by his family. He certainly made history for the federal NDP and contributed a lot and still had much to contribute.

Finally, I post my thoughts about the NDP filibuster of Stevie Spiteful’s draconian Back to work legislation of locked out Canada Post workers and the press coverage it has received, along with many Canadians’ attitude toward it.

According to Kady O’Malley’s last tweets, it appears that Stevie Spiteful will be visiting the sites of the Richelieu Floods sites for a briefing tomorrow, suggesting that perhaps Jack may have to wait for the opportunity to ask Stevie his first question as leader of the opposition.

Jack Layton just finished telling Craig Oliver that he thought what young Brigitte DePape did was wrong.
