An Eastern Bastard on Gordon Stamp and Western Separatism

Yet another interesting discussion going on at Planet X. Apparently the Conservative campaign manager in Edmonton East has resigned after it was learned that six months ago he posted a thread entitled “Canada Has No Moral Right To Exist”.
One of the sub themes of the argument goes like this: why is it viewed as [...]

The Clock Is Ticking

There’s only 23 days left until we go to the polls and my vote still does not have a home……

He’s Back

Last month I lamented the passing of Ianism, today, after finally getting time to see if the blog-o-sphere is still operational, I’m happy to report he’s back…..

Quick Blog Hits

You may have noticed that [highly enjoyable] seasonal activities replaced blogging over the last few days, we’ll get back into the swing of things soon enough, for now, here’s some quickies…..

Don’t Go –

– if you must, and you have even an ounce of humanity in you, go alone, please people, this is important, do not inflict it on others you care about.

A Canadian Journalist In New Orleans

“Being in this once-great city reminds me of my time in Bosnia… the buildings are intact, the streets deserted, the heart of the community dead – and an ominous mood of anger and fear hangs over the city like a shroud.”

All Communications ‘Eh?

I just sent an email off to a friend who lives on the eastern seaboard……

Merry Christmas!

Today marks the birth of Jesus Christ, perhaps the most profound and revolutionary moral philosopher in the history of our species. Many believe that he was the son of God incarnate; many more have been moved by the strength and beauty of his vision.

Too Funny

One of my (guilty) pastimes is to visit Robert’s site to see how the latest flame war exchanges are going. It can be very funny. What I find even more amusing over at Myblahg these days are Robert’s latest creations in the “Whinger World” photo category. Today’s installment is not disappointing. Funny stuff. Go and check it out

Arctic Sovereignty

Stephen Harper’s plan to protect Canada’s Arctic is oddly like George Bush’s Son-O’-Star-Wars missile defense plan: an enormously expensive package of new toys and old ideas, aimed at the wrong target.

Maybe They Don’t REALLY Care About Sovereignty?

When it came to missile defense, the US was deeply solicitous about Canadian sovereignty. Of course, that doesn’t mean THEY’LL ever respect it.

An Indicator Of Things To Come?

Admittedly it’s completely unscientific in nature, but this web poll by MSNBC seems to indicate that an over whelming number of people think that Bush has been involved in one or more impeachable offenses…..

Move Over America –

– there’s a new big brother in town

Balls!

A good blog buddy described Harper’s challenge to debate Gilles Duceppe as “balls”. And I agree…in the British sense of the expression. Harper is risking nothing: he’s throwing down a gauntlet that he KNOWS will not be picked up.

Order More Walls!!

A new and dangerous threat has emerged on Americas’ northern frontier. A threat more dangerous that of illegal immigration on the Mexican border, a threat more dangerous than liberal ideas leaking out along the Quebec/Ontario/American border, and a threat that makes angry bovines along the prairie border pale by comparison – that’s right folks, I’m talking about the insidious threat posed by Catholic school kids from the Yukon.
