CBC;
Ottawa has announced plans for new security upgrades, including barring some people from flying on commercial flights. Under the program, the government will identify people who pose “an immediate threat to aviation security” and will work with airlines to stop those people from flying, said Transport Minister Jean Lapierre.
So, if I am reading this correctly, either Transport Canada doesn’t currently work with airlines to identify (much less arrest and detain) people who pose an immediate threat to aviation security ….

– or, with the London bombings showing up in Liberal internal polling, Jean Lapierre was pushed out in front of the cameras and told to “say something”.
More skepticism at Newsbeat1.
I doubt if anything’s really going to change. As usual, Libranos go to the MSM and give the country some doubletalk about so-and-so working closely with so-and-so on whatever matter. I suspect the “working together” is little more than frequent useless meetings that get nowhere, Dilbert-style.
It’s probably another opportunity to make unnecessary work for Librano loyalist “hirees” in the public “service”.
I’m so skeptical as I’ve over the years given the Libranos the benefit of the doubt and come to realize that they’ve really not done any actual work on any file. It’s all political posturing. And naturally the MSM will feign amnesia and let them off the hook.
So, really, we shouldn’t expect any terrorists, known or not, to be barred from flying, except by accident.
At first glance, the picture looks staged and “cartoonish”. Silly me, I guess… 🙁
London Times…………
“As the measures were unveiled, the Bank of England said that it had frozen the bank accounts of the four men held on suspicion of being the July 21 bombers, amid allegations that they had collected more than �500,000 in benefits.”

The most startling revelation for me was this vacuous �no fly� list the ministry is compiling�.what is the criteria? What makes one fit to fly on commercial air traffic in Canada? Will you be put on a snuff list if you disagree with the ( liberal) government? Will only the parties friends be issued permits for mobility? It all sounds a bit Orwellian to me �and the fact this is in the corrupt, inept hands of the Librano regime should make more than just the libertal pussies in the Canadian civil liberties association nervous.
Jihadist bombings and the daily blasting in Iraq are urgent news and correctly take up most of the space in our media.
Recently we saw a big headline about a thousand spies for China operating in Canada. That seems very important to me and all Canadians.
Why is there no follow-up?
The Hans Island embarrassment is a total farce, only matched by the Michael Jackson waste of media space and time.
China knows we are distracted with Jihadist concearns.
We want to know more about mega-mergers and industrial building block buy-outs that China is completing in Canada.
Always the risk that racist accusers are ready to pounce here. Forget it. The Chinese people are excellent steady-going and mostly very honest.
It’s the over-ambitious A-type personalities at the top who run things, that give me pause. 73s TG
And seriously, folks, here we are, August/05, almost four years to the day of 9/11 and we are only NOW going to build said list? The MSM doesn’t see a problem with this?
We will see the MSM criticise ANYTHING that Canada’s Natural Governing Party announces, sometime after the Liberanos organize a successfull fishfry for an old whores convention.
(Don’t wait up).
Myself, I’m getting the idea that us conservative-minded Cdns. who care about getting fair and balanced treatment of important issues should consider buying up the MSM. If we all pooled our investment resources, perhaps we could buy up, what are they called, Bell Globemedia and Canwest Global? Why settle for the blogosphere? Why not take over? The Libs will still have the CBC (but not if I have my way).
And we’ll have to take a good serious look at the CRTC. Something’s not right with it. No pun intended.
Of course, it’ll help immensely once the Conservatives are elected with a strong majority. Then that which is broken will be fixed.
Multiculturalism exposed as a fraud:>>
Utopia Parkway said…
Most people believe that everyone else is fundamentally like them. Differences are seen as small differences of approach or differences of opportunity or signs of mental illness. In fact there are fundamental and irreconcilable differences among people and among societies.
This is part of the problem with multi-culturalism, which assumes a certain similarity among people from different cultures that really isn’t there.
The long time taken to see Stalin for what he was is in large part because westerners couldn’t believe what he was.
I suspect that the only way for westerners to change their opinions of other cultures is based on wedge issues. 9/11 should be a good one regarding our view of the Muslim world.
The belief that others are like you afflicts non-westerners as much as westerners, perhaps more. They think we’re like them and we think they’re like us, and we’re both wrong.
