Doug Ford's carbon tax tour

Tweedle Dee visited Jason Kenney of the UPC in Alberta to rally opposition to the carbon tax. I didn't think he'd be visiting the wicked witch of the west on that visit. OK so let's put this into perspective. Green Justice opposes the carbon tax because it is just another tax grab. Politicians stay up late at night trying to think up new ways to tax people. Then some neocon had a brainstorm. We'll call it a carbon tax. That way all the environmentalists will support it. What a scam that is. Conning the people into supporting a rise in taxes. It's actually quite funny.

I don't share Jason Kenney's idol worship of Doug Ford but I do oppose the carbon tax. However, once again we need to use common sense to balance the extremes. Setting the hype aside, polluting the environment indiscriminately is not a good thing. Importing PCP to dump in Canada is not a good thing. Exporting coal out of the Surrey docks is not a good thing. Natural gas is cleaner burning than coal. That is common sense.

Recently Jason Kenney declared war on the green left and I want to make a call to order. You can declare war on the alt left and the alt right. I'm fine with that but don't declare war on the environment. Green Justice supports business. Sustainable business. Rachel Notley has come across to the rest of the world as a raging lunatic. She insists that she will pollute the entire planet and no one can stop her. Why don't you mine asbestos while you're at it. That's not very progressive thinking. Protecting the environment is like avoiding unnecessary debt. Justin Trudeau's unlimited credit card spending is not sustainable. Neither is excessive pollution.

I'm not saying everyone should ride their bicycles to work. Mayor Moonbeam's desire to ban all cars from Vancouver is insane. I'm saying we should strive for sustainability and strive to avoid excessive pollution wherever possible. Like I said, natural gas is better than coal.

Recently everyone is kissing each others ass over the decision to go ahead with LGN out of Kitimat. I'm kinda shocked. I support natural gas but they just announced that instead of twinning an existing pipeline they are going to cut a new pipeline through an old growth forest and all the environmentalists are cheering at their victory. Did I miss something?



If they are going to clear cut a new pipeline to Kitimat, they might as well twin it while they are at it. That would be cost effective. The problem with Kitimat was and is, navigating tankers in to that harbour. It's not a clear passage. They have to navigate numerous islands in the Douglas Channel. There are risks involved. Would that be better than increased tanker traffic in Vancouver? Perhaps. It's always a trade off. Just fix the price of gas in Vancouver.

I will say Kinder Morgan is better than Enbridge. Enbridge has a horrible reputation for leaking pipelines in the US. Kinder Morgan is owned by Texas. Enbridge is owned by Communist China. Do the math. Green Justice supports Jason Kenney over Rachel Notley. Let's just leave the alt right and the alt left behind so we can balance the extremes and find peace of mind with lower taxes for everyone that allows for a vibrant economy to prosper. Peace.

BTW Privatizing Hydro will not fix the problem. That's what caused the problem. Contracting in that work will fix the problem. It's got nothing to do with left or right. It's just common sense.

Fatal shootings in Mission and Chilliwack, Targeted hit in East Vancouver, body found in Richmond

Anything can happen in a New York minute. The Peace Arch News is reporting that "One man is dead after a shooting incident in the parking lot of the Junction Mall in Mission. Mission RCMP and IHIT are on scene but few details have been released. The incident occurred just after 9 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 3 near the SilverCity Mission Cinemas. RCMP have confirmed that shots were fired, and a man is deceased, but the investigation is still in the early stages and no other information is being released at this time. The suspect is not in custody."

"One witness at the scene said he heard four loud shots and then saw a vehicle quickly drive away. According to the witness, the vehicle then circled back towards the original shooting scene, a gun could be seen sticking out of the window, and three more shots rang out."

Update: The Chilliwack Progress is reporting that the Mission victim was Varinderpal Gill, 19 and was involved in the gang conflict. A Honda Pilot SUV was set on fire shortly after the shooting.

Targeted shooting in East Vancouver

BC Local News is reporting that "Vancouver police say a man is seriously injured after a targeted late-night shooting in the Downtown Eastside Wednesday. Officers received several 911 calls about shots fired near Carrall Street and East Pender around 11 p.m. When they arrived, police found a 46-year-old Vancouver man who had been shot. He was taken to hospital with serious injuries. No arrests have been reported." That's edging towards Chinatown.

Woman's body found in Richmond

The Richmond News is reporting that "Homicide investigators have been called in after a woman’s body was found in a Richmond city centre home in the early hours of Thursday. Shortly after midnight, Richmond RCMP was called to an older-style, detached home on the south-west corner of Westminster Highway and Minoru Boulevard for the discovery of a body. The body, according to police, is that of a deceased female and her death is considered as suspicious."

Update: CBC is reporting that the woman has been identified as Aspen Pallot, 19. Solaris Onatta Running Dey, 23, was arrested nearby shortly after her body was discovered and has been charged with manslaughter. Weird. The kid looks like a nerd from Big Bang theory. .



Fatal shooting in Chilliwack

The Chilliwack is reporting that "One person is dead following a shooting in the Yale Road and Menzies area of Chilliwack Thursday afternoon. The homicide teams have been called in to investigate the shooting, which happend around 2:20 p.m." Sh*t be cray yo.

Update: CBC is reporting that the Chilliwack victim was Kyle Cromarty, 27.



Shots fired in South Surrey

The Peace Arch News is reporting that "Surrey RCMP is investigating reports of shots fired overnight in South Surrey. Police say there were multiple reports of shots being fired in the 3300-block of 194 Street at approximately 1 a.m. Friday (Oct. 5)." Once again, I object to the new digital encrypted radios the police are using to go off the grid from Scan BC. Now we only hear what they want to tell us. It is not good for democracy or public accountability.

Green Justice is Back Online

As I previously mentioned, the Greenjustice.ca website was hacked and the entire server crashed so I changed servers. It's now back online so it is. Let's get ready to rumble.... Oct 20th - face it.

Not surprisingly, Roslyn Cassells' web site was also hacked but is now up and running on a new server in time for the election. No lie can live forever because truth crushed to the earth will rise again so it will. Dirty tricks from dirty rats can slow us down but they can't stop us. Word.

Green Justice Mayor and Council endorsements

Green Justice School Trustees endorsements

Tom Gill Sucks - Surrey First Meltdown - Private Text messages

Surrey Mayor Candidate's Debate



Update: A slight correction on our Green Justice endorsement. The Peace Arch News and the Voice Online both reported that Brenda Locke and Mandeep Nagra both joined McCallum’s Safe Surrey Coalition. Beau Simpson and Justin Thind ran last year but aren't running this year. Brenda Locke is a former MLA in Surrey. Mandeep Nagra is concerned about drugs and gang violence and also prefers Skytrain over LRT. That's good enough for me.

Victoria Police Chief fired for misconduct

First we heard that suspended Victoria Police Chief Frank Elsner resigned but unlike in Jim Browns case, the disciplinary hearing continued after he resigned. Then we hear that "Although Elsner resigned in May 2017, his service record will now show that he committed eight acts of misconduct under the Police Act which would have resulted in his dismissal from policing."

"Two retired judges acting for the commissioner determined that Elsner committed six acts of discreditable conduct, including three of workplace harassment, one act of deceit and one act of inappropriate use of police equipment. “I have concluded that the decisions and discipline proposed by the retired judges are well reasoned and appropriate … Therefore, there is no need to call a public hearing on these matters,” said Lowe. Since his resignation, Elsner has launched a cannabis consulting business - his profile on Linked In says he is principal consultant for UMBRA Strategic Solutions, which provides security consulting to marijuana businesses.

More cop pot. I wonder if he's going to start working for Andy Richards? Does that means cops who sell pot are not allowed to enter the US? Now two local mayors are complaining that the report implicates them by stating "In the report released Sept. 26, Lowe said Helps and Desjardins predetermined the outcome of the internal discipline process from the outset, and set about navigating a course to allow the former chief to remain in his post.”

Frank Elsner is from Sudbury where he "associated with criminals and partied with drug users, bikers, and hookers. He set up elaborate drug deals, disappeared for weeks on end, was involved in a hitman operation, and had multiple aliases." This is an example of an undercover cop who goes undercover not because he hates crime because he covets that life. I do not. There is nothing in that life that appeals to me and I think married cops that go undercover to infiltrate the bikers gangs because they covet that lifestyle are trash.

Liberals defeated in Quebec

Global is reporting that "François Legault’s Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) will form the next majority government in Quebec. This historic election marks a first victory for the party and a stunning defeat for the Liberals." A little je me souviens à nos frères au Québec.

Surrey RCMP investigating voter fraud. Not.

CBC is reporting that "Surrey's chief election officer says he has "sufficient cause to suspect illegal activity" around the mail ballot process in the leadup to the Oct. 20 municipal election. Anthony Capuccinello Iraci confirmed the RCMP is investigating allegations of voter fraud, but said it was too early in the voting process for any harm to have been done."

Investigated by the RCMP. Yeah right. Like that's not a conflict of interest. The RCMP aren't going to charge Tom Gill because they want him to win since Doug McCallum will be getting rid of he RCMP. Having the RCMP investigate the mater is a complete conflict of interest. They won't charge Tom Gill any more than they charged Christy Clark in BC Rail. As soon as the BC Liberals renewed the RCMP contract the money laundering charges were dropped. So the voter fraud was within the South Asian community and it wasn't Rajesh. Gee, I wonder who that leaves.

On that note, Jas Rehal is a d*ck. The Surrey Now Leader is reporting that "Surrey removing 200 election signs near intersections that violate city rules. In Surrey, signs aren’t allowed within 25 meters of intersections." 25 meters of intersections? That is f*cking ridiculous. People have always out election sign at intersections because that is where traffic stop to wait for lights.

Jas Rehal is that baby peacock killing wannabe mall cop. Fire him. BTW I want to press charges for theft. He stole my sign on 88th and King George Hwy and I was not notified.

Edmonton cop leaking intel to the Hells Angels again

CBC is reporting that "An Edmonton police officer has been arrested as part of an ongoing investigation by the Alberta Serious Incident Response Team, city police said Friday. CBC News has learned the female officer, a constable who worked out of downtown division, is suspected of leaking information to a Hells Angels associate. The officer is not in custody." As if it's only her. The EPS has always been compromised. That's why all the HA busts are done by ALERT.

Surrey School Board Candidates

Green Justice is very clear on who they endorse for Mayor and council. I'd like to take the time now to address the candidates for School Trustees. First I'd like to say that anyone on the Surrey First ballot has to go. Their time is done. Putting a road through Hjorth Road elementary is in no one's best interest. Next I'd like to say that I endorse Cindy Dalglish, Charlene Dobie, Mary-Em Waddington and Sonia Andhi of Surrey Students NOW because they are clearly opposed to the road through Hjorth Road elementary. Opposing that is in everyone's best interest.

I endorse Laurae McNally who is an incumbent but she is an independent from Whiterock. She is not a member of Surrey First and is opposed to the road going the road Hjorth Road elementary. I also endorse Lisa Alexis who is an independent. Julia Poole in an independent who is actually an experienced school teacher. Gary Tymoschuk is an incumbent with Surrey First who claims to be oppose to the road through Hjorth Road. That appears to be in conflict with his party. So here are the six Surrey candidates and one Whiterock candidate Green Justice endorses:

Cindy Dalglish - Surrey Students NOW

Charlene Dobie - Surrey Students NOW

Mary-Em Waddington - Surrey Students NOW

Sonia Andhi - Surrey Students NOW

Lisa Alexis - Independent

Julia Poole - Independent

Laurae McNally - Independent for Whiterock





I don't support gender parity. Sometimes the best man for the job isn't a woman. In this case we endorse all women. Who cares? It's the person not the gender we endorse. Having a financial wizard and a former school teacher makes the slate complete. Say goodbye to Surrey First. Give it up for Xena and the Amazon warriors. This is a printable PDF of the endorsement.

On a separate issue, I will now address the new SOGI 123 program for elementary school students. I'm all for equal rights - gay, straight, transgender, it just doesn't matter. However, no one likes religion pushed on them and likewise no one likes alternate lifestyles pushed on them. Gay pride is an oxymoron. Being gay is one thing, being promiscuous is another. Promoting gay promiscuity is just as bad as promoting heterosexual promiscuity. It is cheap and trashy.

Cramming these rainbow crosswalks down our throat is a bit much. If someone is persecuted for their sexual orientation, that is wrong. Likewise if someone is persecuted for their religious beliefs that is also wrong. Both are prohibited under the Canadian Charter of Rights.

Tragically the Supreme Court of Canada just threw away the Canadian Charter of Rights and has discriminated against law school grads from Trinity Western University. Neither the state nor the court has the jurisdiction or the authority to tell me what kind of covenant I can and cannot make. They do not have the right to tell me what I can and cannot believe. That crosses the line.

Recently Doug Ford rose to power in Ontario in response to leftist extremism cramming gender neutrally down young kids throats and the people said enough is enough. Talking about using condoms with high school students is very different then cramming gender neutrality on young elementary school students. This new SOGI 123 program the NDP has come out with is insane. Consensus has fallen. I do not support that. It boils down to confused adults teaching children to be confused. That's just not right. Kids need to feel loved and wanted. They don't need to be pushed into making decisions that will adversely affect them for the rest of their lives. Caitlyn Jenner is to be accepted but he / she is certainly not a role model. Just say'n.

Caitlyn Jenner was a man who became a woman yet still prefers to have sex with women. Do you really think other women will feel comfortable sharing the same washroom with him? I think not. Telling elementary school kids there is no such thing as gender is wrong.

Steven Skinner worked for the Hells Angels and Larry Amero

CBC is reporting that "Colombian authorities say a Nova Scotia man who is awaiting trial for a 2011 murder in Lake Echo, N.S., was allegedly one of the ringleaders of a drug cartel that paid people to smuggle liquid cocaine in their bodies to Canada, the U.S. and Europe."

"The Colombian attorney general's office also says Steven Douglas Skinner murdered an accomplice in that country and then escaped to Venezuela. Skinner was arrested on a beach in Venezuela in 2016 and extradited to Canada, where he is facing a second-degree murder charge in the death of 20-year-old Stacey Adams. Adams was shot dead in the driveway of a home in Lake Echo in 2011. Skinner, from Cole Harbour, fled the province soon after the killing and was on the lam for five years before he was caught in Venezuela."

So Skinner is charged with a murder in NS but he is also accused of murdering an accomplice in Columbia. What Canadian drug dealer was murdered in Columbia around that time? Frederic Lavoie. Frederic Lavoie was murdered and dismembered in Colombia May 12 2014. This appears to be Skinner's accomplice that he murdered in Columbia.

Let's be clear. Skinner is from Nova Scotia and sold drugs for the Hells Angels. Just because I buy drugs from the Hells Angels, that doesn't make me a member of the Hells Angels. If I sell drugs for the Hells Angels and buy cocaine from Mexico, that does not make me a member of the Mexican cartel. If I sell drugs for the Hells Angels and buy cocaine from Columbia, that does not make me a member of a Colombian cartel. Skinner did not work for the Mexican or Colombian cartel. Skinner worked for the Hells Angels. His accomplice was from Quebec.

The drug ring was run by the Hells Angels. This is the same drug ring Larry Amero and Rabih Alkhalil were involved with. So they killed another accomplice two years after they were busted. With friends like that, who needs enemies?

Dark web fentanyl dealer from Kelowna

Kelly Hayes from Global is reporting that "Sting operation uncovers dark web fentanyl dealer in Kelowna." It's all very similar to the Friendly Chemist sting on Silk road.

The Surrey Now Leader is reporting that "At a press conference in Cleveland, Attorney General Jeff Sessions was joined by U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio Justin Herdman and other Justice Department officials who condemned the activities of Kiessling and several others swept up in Operation Darkness Falls.”

“Today’s announcements are a warning to every trafficker, every crooked doctor or pharmacist, and every drug company, every chairman and foreign national and company that puts greed before the lives and health of the American people: this Justice Department will use civil and criminal penalties alike and we will find you, put you in jail, or make you pay,” said Sessions in a press conference at the time.

Unfortunately we know that statement is simply untrue. The CIA have been trafficking cocaine since Vietnam and they have never been charged. Every time they get caught bringing in a ton of cocaine into the US no one is ever charged. Hilary Clinton was the author of Operation Fast and Furious and she was never charged. The US AG at the time stepped down but he was never charged. After Oliver North was convicted of drug trafficking in Iran Contra they made him a Fox News host. Nothing has changed. The real gangsters are the politicians.
