Rob Ford’s 911 problem

By Jymn, on December 30th, 2011

Tweet

Classy! (Photo from Dammit Janet.)

There’s something wrong with Rob Ford. We all know he’s trash. But there’s an undercurrent of rage surrounding the man that’s almost Alec Baldwinish. Marg Delahunty is one thing; drunken threats another.

On Christmas, Ford’s mother-in-law called police between 4 and 5 a.m. to report that the mayor had been drinking . . . → Read More: Rob Ford’s 911 problem

Odd Happenings in Mont-Royal

By Logan, on November 23rd, 2011

Tweet

So imagine this. You are an MP of a riding in the middle of Montreal. You’re not any MP, though, you are a Liberal MP. Your party has held this riding since 1940 and not only that, the first time you ran for this riding, you won it with 91%. Now it’s true, . . . → Read More: Odd Happenings in Mont-Royal

Rob Ford: Help! Call 911! Marg Delahunty is after my body!

By Jymn, on October 25th, 2011

Tweet

Marg to cop at Ford House "Where's a man when you need him?" Cop, "Obviously not here, m'am".

Too fucking hilarious. No wonder Conservatives are so afraid of the CBC. Marg Delahunty’s on the prowl. (Video here.)

Rob Ford, caught talking on cell phone while driving, gives mother and daughter the finger

By Jymn, on July 26th, 2011

Tweet

Class. The new Toronto. The new millennium of unbridled Conservatism is upon us. They do what they want, when they want and the law be damned. With our media protecting them, it will only get worse. There’s only so much a single local paper can do. Good on the Star.

Democracy: another word stripped of its meaning

By Orwell's Bastard, on February 13th, 2011

Tweet

If you’re not reading DownWithTyranny – a marvellous, thoughtful, progressive source from one of our friends to the south – then start now.

KenInNY may not be the first to compare and contrast the ouster of Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak with the increasingly hollow and meaningless “democracy” currently operating in the United States, but he’s certainly . . . → Read More: Democracy: another word stripped of its meaning

Macho Men Wear Pink–Wannabe Rockstars Who Make Your Skin Crawl–Canadian Cons–A Freak Show

By ck, on December 9th, 2010

Tweet

Indeed it is. In fact, I would go so far as to say that the Harpercons and their cheerleaders are really beginning to make the American tea-baggers look like normal functional people.

And yes, the worst bullies and buffoons loves their pink. Decided it was indeed macho since Don Johnson made it so . . . → Read More: Macho Men Wear Pink–Wannabe Rockstars Who Make Your Skin Crawl–Canadian Cons–A Freak Show

Rob Ford’s Debut At City Hall-Ending The Biggest “Waste”

By ck, on December 5th, 2010

Tweet

Add Robocop Fantino to the mix, and these three buffoons look more like villain commentators  from the World Wrestling Federation–and this is what is ruling politics of the day!

Enjoy! I did take care to find a less migraine inducing suit of Don Cherry’s.

Roger Ebert takes on Rob Ford … again

By Jymn, on November 5th, 2010

Tweet

I love Roger Ebert. I liked him as a reviewer of movies – he was lucid, thoughtful and never gave away the plot or ending (hear that, Peter Howell). But as a political observer, he is unparalleled. He just devastates everyone and everything in his path. Not with malice but with heart. He . . . → Read More: Roger Ebert takes on Rob Ford … again

Condie Rice Comin’ To TO?

By ck, on October 28th, 2010

Why, oh why? Lessee…

Rob Ford is perhaps feeling festive over his win and decided to celebrate by inviting an American high priced call girl.  Perhaps Officer Bubbles will be hired to do security.

Some Last Minute Election “Thoughts” From Family Values Dodo Can’t Spell

By ck, on October 25th, 2010

Ok, “thoughts”, perhaps a bad choice of words, since Maria S  Nunes AKA “Dodo” is clearly incapable of thought: we’d feel the earthquake all the way here in Montreal, hell, I think my co-blogger, Logan in China would feel it! You see, boys ‘n’ girls, Dodo, in addition to being Islamophobic, also appears . . . → Read More: Some Last Minute Election “Thoughts” From Family Values Dodo Can’t Spell

Don’t Forget To Vote Tomorrow!

I’ve always believed that if you don’t vote, you forfeit your right to bitch.  Tomorrow, municipal elections are happening; Ottawa, where the wingnut Larry O’Brien is sure to lose, thank gawd the folks in our nation’s capital are coming to their senses, or appear to be anyway (it remains to be seen if . . . → Read More: Don’t Forget To Vote Tomorrow!

Maudit merde de Tabarnac!! Maclean’s has gone and done it again, like so many corporate media outlets in the rest of Canada do; they bash our Belle Province de Quebec. Maclean’s is claiming that Quebec is THE most corrupt province in Canada and will be published in this week’s magazine. Well, we must be . . . → Read More: Come Join the Dark Side!

Candidates Like Rob Ford Make Me Appreciate The Dysfunctional Family Known As Montreal City Hall

By ck, on August 20th, 2010

Tweet

I don’t live in Toronto and this shouldn’t concern me all that much. However, my entire family does live there,  and I’m concerned about how life for them in that city would be, particularly with a wingnut like Rob Ford.  What I find absolutely mind boggling is how does a supposedly progressive city . . . → Read More: Candidates Like Rob Ford Make Me Appreciate The Dysfunctional Family Known As Montreal City Hall

The Hypocrisy and Confusion That is Tasha Kheiriddin

By ck, on August 20th, 2010

Tasha Kheiridin’s columns as of late really shows her off to be a wannabe, using terms that no longer exist, like small c conservative. No such thing anymore.  And no Tasha, the Harpercons are not right of center; they’re to the far right.  Right of center would have been the Progressive conservatives of . . . → Read More: The Hypocrisy and Confusion That is Tasha Kheiriddin
