Caroline Mulroney joins the Neo Con - Update

The Canadian Press is reporting that "A source with Caroline Mulroney's campaign says the Toronto lawyer and businesswoman will officially jump into the race to lead Ontario's Progressive Conservatives on Monday, days after reports first emerged suggesting she was eyeing the party's top job. Mulroney, the daughter of former prime minister Brian Mulroney, was pegged as a contender to replace Patrick Brown as soon as the contest began, despite having never held political office."

Obviously a child is not responsible for the sins of their father, but with Lyin Brian's backing, it will certainly be hard to over come. Brian Mulroney was given the nickname lyin Brian for his dishonesty. His tax and spend pork barrel politics created the Reform Party. Stephen Harper betrayed every Reform Party principle known to man when he merged with Mulroneyism and became the exact entity the Reform Party was created to oppose.

Air bus was but one of the many insider trading scams Lyin Brian was involved with. He defrauded the Canadian taxpayers out of a $2.1 million out of court settlement because he lied to the court and swore he wasn't involved with Karlheinz Schreiber when it later turned out he was and did in fact receive cash payments from him.

Brian Mulroney was tied to Iran Contra. He served on the International Board of Directors of Barrick Gold along side George Bush when Barrick gold was involved with the same scandalous gold mine in Indonesia Bre-X was. Stevie Cameron documented Brian Mulroney's legacy in her book On The Take: Crime, Corruption And Greed In The Mulroney Years.



Karma Chameleon has more chance of winning that leadership race than the spawn of Satan. Just sayin. The Fall of Kim Campbell had nothing to do with her being a woman. It was because of her ties to Brian Mulroney. Neo Cons are not conservatives they are con artists. They say one thing and do the other. They say they want to control spending and lower taxes but they do the opposite. They say they support a free market but they dont. They support corporate monopolies that kill the free market because they are in reality corporate communists.

In contrast, Kirk LaPointe appears to be a local favorite for the leadership of the NPA in Vancouver to take over for Mayor Moonbeam. He is someone I can support.



Update: Holy crack pipes. Rob Ford's brother is running for the leadership of the Ontario Conservatives as well. What a freaking gong show. That guy is a complete clown. Rob Ford was an abusive drunk. His claim to fame was smoking crack cocaine and saying derogatory things about women. Rob Ford's brother sat on the same Toronto City Council when Rob was mayor. Together they made that city council look like a WWF gong show.

Think about it. The leadership position became available because the previous leader, who Doug Ford supported, resigned due to disturbing sexual assault allegations. We don't know what those allegations are but they have been referred to as disturbing. Electing an abrasive politically incorrect hillbilly might not be the most tactful choice to mend the bruised reputation of the party. Doug isn't even a MPP. This might be an appropriate time to elect a woman. One who is actually serving as an elected MPP and isn't the spawn of Satan.

CBC is reporting that Christine Elliott is also running for the leadership of the party. Christine Elliott has spent nine years as a Whitby-area MPP. The other two cowgirls don't even have a seat in the Legislature. I support Christine Elliott in that race. That one is a no-brainer.

Christine Elliott has most caucus support for good reason.

Kamloops Man shot in foot

BC Local News is reporting that "Kamloops Mounties remained at a home on Wilson Avenue on the North Shore early Sunday morning following a shooting in the area on Saturday night that sent a man to Royal Inland Hospital. Sgt. Denis Duford said a 26-year-old man was walking in the area of Wilson Street and Mulberry Avenue at 10:10 p.m. when he was shot in the foot. His injuries are not considered life-threatening. Duford said several people were arrested at a Wilson Street home, with any recommended charges dependent on the outcome of the investigation."

Reggie Yates Outside Man

There is another stirring series on Netflix with Reggie Yates called Outside Man. Reggie is a brother from the UK who has a brain and a heart. Netflix states "Award-winning filmmaker Reggie Yates travels around the world tackling big issues such as gun violence, racism, gay rights and addiction. In the first episode he camps at a white slum in South Africa. This guy has a future.

I know a white guy from South Africa. He moved to Canada after the fall of Apartheid. I don't like him. He's all everything was fine until we gave blacks the right to vote. I'm like if you don't like black people then stay the f*ck out of their country. I don't like racism. I don't like slavery. I don't like Apartheid. Reggie Yates is posative and thought provoking. He is worth listening to.

Andrew Wilkinson elected B.C. Liberal leader - Update

CBC is reporting that "Andrew Wilkinson has been chosen as the new leader of the B.C. Liberal Party, edging out former Conservative MP Dianne Watts on the fifth ballot in a vote Saturday night." Oh happy day. I endorsed Andrew Wilkinson because of his competence. He was a former lawyer and a doctor. He is educated. He was also the former president of the BC Civil Liberties Union which is impressive because preserving civl liberty in this neo con era is important.

"The Australian-born Wilkinson was first elected in 2013 and briefly served as Attorney General before the fall of Premier Christy Clark’s government last year." He has experience.

I opposed Dianne Watts candidacy because of her corruption. "Grant Rice recently tweeted The Dhesa brothers, Sohan & Nahar, defendents in @CityofSurrey civil bribery case had Whalley application approved by #SurreyBC council in June 2010, months after start of #RCMP investigation & @DianneWatts4BC assurance of "preventative measures" after Ian Mulgrew wrote about the corruption case Dianne Watts hid when she was mayor of Surrey.

Andrew Wilkinson has spoken out against the NDP and the Green's insane compromise to use tax dollars for political party funding. That needs to stop. Welcome to the year of the dawg yo.



The morning after her crushing defeat Dianne Watts' lapdog chokes on his sour grapes.

Bloody Hell give it a rest. Mike Smyth campaigned for Dianne Watts and lost. Get over it. Stop flooding the MSM with bullsh*t. In today's paper Michael Lapdog asks how can a 60 year old white man win the ethnic vote. AYFKM? His client is a 58 year old white woman. At least Andy doesn't die his hair and do Botox. That's because he is comfortable with who he is.

Mikey makes a big deal about the fact that Andrew Wilkinson left the celebrations relatively early so he could get up early the next morning and get straight to work. That was a good thing. He is a hard worker. At least he didn't stay up late at a drunken gala and run a red light on the way home T-boning another vehicle then lie about it. We need more leadership from leaders not more drunken partying. What was Dianne Watt's claim to fame after she was elected a MP for Harper? She built a new office and didn't show up for work for six months. At least Dianne Watts was able to feign a graceful defeat. Too bad her lapdog couldn't.

Overview

There's been a flurry of new news and I just wanted give a brief overview since older posts quickly get buried on the blog. The big news is Kim Bolan's report on the Kevin LeClair murder trial. The defense lawyer claims the crown witnesses are lying to save their own skins and that is clearly true. The defense has successfully established that the crown witnesses have no credibility because they keep changing their story and their current claims contradict the evidence. The only real witness saw two shooters. The one that opened up fire with an automatic assault rifle was much larger and more muscular than the other. That doesn't fit Corey's description. That fits K-9's description. It wasn't Corey. The crown witnesses are lying again.

The shooting at the Quebec courthouse was outrageous. Five officers couldn't control a very mild scuffle with one kid and the officer that was choking the kid pulls out a gun and shoots the kid in the head all caught on video. The officers dragged the kid into a side room because they knew they were being filmed. That was obscene.

The local gas fraud is out of control along with the news of the current ICBC fraud. This kind of corruption needs to be addressed becaue it is exactly what caused the Greek financial crisis.

Two Toronto cops called 911 after they chowed down on pot edibles they seized in a raid.

Legalizing all drugs is the wrong road. That is not the Portugal model.

There was a fatal shooting at a known drug house in Chilliwack on January 31st.

A Surrey man was shot in Richmond Thursday night.

Russia's Olympic ban has been lifted so hopefully we'll see them on the ice during the Olympics.

The Honduras police chief assisted a cartel leader deliver a ton of cocaine.

Larry Amero was busted in Ottawa January 25th.

I posted the real story about Dianne Watts and Rich Coleman.

Ian Mulgrew wrote about the corruption case Dianne Watts hid when she was mayor.

The Trans Mountain Pipeline is a fair compromise.

The Black Panther movie hits the theater as they start filming for Creed II

Wanted is a great Australian TV series on Netflix. Season 2 starts off in Thailand.

The Good Place is another great TV series on Netflix. It is light and funny.

Surrey man shot in Richmond

The Peace arch News is reporting that "Richmond RCMP are investigating a shooting after a Surrey man, 20, was found suffering from injuries Thursday night in the 7000-block of Westminster Highway." CTV is reporting that "It appeared that he had been shot near the 6200-block of Lynas Lane."

Postal Union Innovates while Canada Post Stands Still

The Huffington Post is reporting that Canada Post Continues To Stand Still As The World Passes It By but that is simply not true. In reality, the Postal union has some great ideas for innovation while Canada Post and the Canadian government let that brilliant opportunity pass them by.

The Huffington Post article regurgitates the same old rhetoric about getting rid of the postal monopoly. Mail volumes are declining. We could easily go to second day delivery. Parcels are the way of the future. Canada Post delivers Amazon and online orders. Instead of fighting over table scraps by getting rid of the postal monopoly we need to look at getting rid of the banking monopoly. That is where the real money is.

The Union is suggesting we bring back postal banking. That makes sense. Especially in rural areas: #ABankForEveryone Breaking the bank monopoly would be in everyone's best interest.

No Motive in Dover Park Shooting

Kim Bolan is reporting that "A young gangster was convicted Thursday in the August 2015 attempt to kill his own associate in Richmond’s Dover Park. Richmond Provincial Court Judge Bonnie Craig said the circumstantial evidence at trial proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Thomas Duong participated in the near-fatal shooting of Matin Pouyan on the night of Aug. 21, 2015. Craig agreed with the defence that there was no apparent motive behind the murder plot and that Duong and Pouyan had been seen hanging out together on the day of the shooting."

The judge claims the shooting was premeditated but had no motive. That makes absolute no sense. Every crime has a motive. It couldn't have been premeditated if there was no motive.

Latest ICBC Fraud in the News

There has been a lot of talk recently about the latest ICBC Fraud. The MSM claim both BC provincial parties are blaming each other but it doesn't take a brain surgeon to figure out what happened. You can't blame this on the NDP. The Liberal government extracted a $1.3 billion dividend from ICBC to balance Christy Clark's fake fudgeit budget. That was another act of fraud just like how they extracted a $852 million dividend from BC Hydro that wasn't there.

Peter Rose from Delta wrote in to the Vancouver Province and nailed it. "How gullible does Attorney-General David Eby think the public is? The Insurance Corp. of B.C. is $1.3 billion in the red, but the Liberal government siphoned off $1.3 billion from ICBC. That means ICBC is breaking even. It’s up to the provincial government to reimburse ICBC the funds it took and, in future, keep its hands out of the till."

This is the same kind of investment fraud that created the Greek financial Crisis and the BC Liberals keep getting away with it. In this case, they extracted a dividend from ICBC which did not exist to falsify their budget and created another manufactured emergency. They did the same thing to BC Hydro only worse.

Before they forced BC Hydro to borrow $852 million to give the BC Liberals they privatized the independent power brokers that sell power to the public company at above market rates. That means they created a tsunami of deferred debt withing BC Hydro then on top of that forced them to borrow more money they didn't have to give to the BC Liberals. They all should be in jail. Before we do anything we need to fix that fraud before it continues to get any worse.

Norm Farrell nails it - Again

Two hikers stabbed on Mount Seymour

The Georgia Straight is reporting that "North Vancouver RCMP are investigating what happened to two men who were found stabbed on Mount Seymour. On February 1 at 5:09 a.m., an injured male hiker on Dog Mountain Trail on Mount Seymour called 911 for help. Emergency Services found him on a trail about one kilometre from the Mount Seymour parking lot and took him to hospital. Then at 8:30 a.m., Emergency Services received and responded a call from a second male hiker in the same area, who also needed medical help due to similar injuries. RCMP stated in a news release that both of their injuries were knife wounds resulting from an altercation, and that both men were known to each other. At a press conference, RCMP stated that the two men had been camping together."

Global is reporting that one of the injured people was known to police. When I first saw the report I was like, WTF? That's the trail I always hike on. This time of year it's covered in snow so they had to have been showshoers. Only it was on Dog mountain not the longer trail up to Seymour first, second and third peak past Brockton Point. I always skip Dog Mountain.
