  1. The government going after the government! I think there are a lot of details missing to yet another CBC ”let’s get Harper story.”

  2. NEP2 has put the Energy East pipeline on hold until 2018.
    Lets see…. 2019 looks like an election year for both bongo and Rachael. Just sayin’. Naw to cynical.

  3. Pro Canada East Pipeline rant
    I gave up on Rick Mercer a few years ago for his flaming anti everything rhetoric, especially anti CPC. As smart as he is, he can be a brainless idiot sometimes. Not this week. He acts like he actually “gets it.”
    This week’s rant is very good. He defends Alberta’s right to ship oil east and rips PQ a new one.
    Worth two minutes. It is good.

  4. Rick’s Right On with the pipeline issue.
    Canadian Oil feeds our families, puts a roof over their head, pays their taxes, and it’s significantly cleaner than coal. Those who don’t like that, don’t have to live here and benefit from all that Canadian oil which pays for universal health care, and revenue equalization among a confederation of provinces. Only a stupid person bites the hand that feeds them.

    What’s interesting, however, is that these people, who claim to be journalists—Wallace, Baier, Kelly, Stirewalt, Kurtz, and pretty much everyone else at the Fox News Channel, especially Sammon—all committed what is pretty much a cardinal sin in journalism: They didn’t disclose a major conflict of interest ahead of a presidential debate. That conflict, of course, is that Brooke Sammon—Rubio’s national press secretary—is the daughter of Fox News executive Bill Sammon.
    Brooke Sammon is no small player in Rubio’s orbit, either. She’s second in command to Rubio communications chief Alex Conant, and has worked for the senator for years.

  9. In Friday’s National Post, John Ivison mentions that on the same day that the Liberals reversed Tory legislation re Unions, certification, voting etc, the federal elections commissioner found that a plumbing union made an illegal contribtion to the Liberals.

  13. Well, I did not have any hopes that the Liberals would be focusing on the interests of Canadians — so most of their moves do not come as a surprise. But surely they might have thought a bit about the issue of union transparency, and had they done so it would have been obvious that this is in the interests of Canadians. Their reversals on this and the transparency for Native groups is a step backwards for everyone — including those who pay into unions and most natives who suffer at the hands of abusive leaders. As always, Liberals simply favour their special interest groups. Canadians have bought a pig in a poke. Fairness, balance and justice will suffer at the hands of the Liberal party.

  14. Oh right, graft line forms to the left:
    “Chiefs from B.C., Manitoba and Quebec reject Liberal pipeline reforms.”
    I assume they reject all tax transfers, especially from petro taxes, as bad for their civilization? No?
    “Grand Chief Derek Nepinak from the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs said the threat of climate changes means that the government must consider whether “we will survive as a civilization” and whether there will be any economy left to salvage in the future.”
    If climate change and state welfare is a threat to their civilization, then it’s time for reflection on their part. Anyway we all know what this is really about. Hint: it has nothing to do with either their civilization or making lives better for their people. Think corruption, think nepotism, think their personal power. Show them the money.

    “The International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank are extremely worried about the financial stability of Brazil, Venezuela and Ecuador, which are heavily reliant upon oil profits.
    And the two organisations are now set to discuss an emergency fund of a possible $4billion emergency to bailout Azerbaijan in what risks to become the first bailout of a country due to oil.”

  16. Kelly McParland has an interesting article about the dire situation in Europe regarding the refugees and the overall stresses on the EU. There is rising resistance to refugees based on stories and experiences regarding rape, attacks and other anti-social behaviour. Interestingly, none of this is related in the Canadian media. Sweden is now planning to deport up to 80,000 refugees . . . well this should certainly help Mr. McCallum make his quotas.

  17. SPOT THE DEMOCRAT!
    Last year, former Assembly Speaker Sheldon and ex-Senate Leader Dean Skelos, R-Long Island, were convicted of corruption. Silver, a Manhattan Democrat, was found guilty of taking more than $4 million in bribes. Skelos, a Long Island Republican, was convicted of extorting payments and jobs for his son.
