By Montreal Simon It couldn’t have been more of a fairy tale beginning. Prince Justin, his princess Sophie, and the Liberal cabinet marching up the driveway to Rideau Hall to be sworn in, after having toppled the tyrant. And yes what a difference a day makes … One moment we were living in his grim Harperland, […]
Sunny day
The Post’s selective MEMRI
By Alison@Creekside National Post, flagship of the largest media conglomerate in Canadian history run by a foreign hedge fund, inhales a MEMRI “report” based on the online musings of four anonymous “known” jihadi dudes titled: “Pro-ISIS Activists React Joyously On Twitter To Canada’s Elections” Then they give it the fabulous new Trudeau-torqued headline you see at left. […]
Harper and the spawn of the Great Satan
By Montreal Simon Oh dear. I see that Stephen Harper had to take the day off on Saturday. No doubt to try to recover from the brutal effects of the long campaign he inflicted upon himself. And get a full spa treatment. Because let’s face it he needs one … Every day he looks more bagged […]

Genesius, the […]

Trudeau stands up
By Montreal Simon The other day I wrote a post where I asked, or begged our progressive leaders to elevate their game. To go big or go home. And make the struggle to defeat the Harper Cons a larger struggle to save Canada and its values. And I have to say that last night in […]

By Frank Moher Does Justin Trudeau have a little meter in his pocket that tells him which way to tack on issues of the day? Does he pull it out and the needle tells him “Slightly Left” or “Slightly Right”? Of course he does. It was passed down to him by the previous leader of […]
Parliament shooting: What the leaders said
Stephen Harper: “My fellow Canadians: for the second time this week, there has been a brutal and violent attack on our soil. Today our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. Cpl. Cirillo was killed today — murdered in cold blood — as he provided […]
