It was horrible. After taking a break from Canadian politics, and the right-wing sewer that social media has become, I returned to find Pierre Poilievre cackling like a hyena. Opening his mouth and showing his teeth, believing he is on the cusp of a massive majority.  And no doubt getting ready to take

I wasn't going to write anything about Justin and Sophie's sad separation. But as summer slowly changes to fall, I changed my mind.  I wanted to thank them for representing our country in such a classy manner, and for making us look new and exciting in the eyes of the world.

From the moment he became Con leader I warned that Pierre Poilievre would take this country to a very dark place. And sure enough he wasted no time attacking Justin Trudeau like a rabid hyena, trying to smear him into submission, by blaming him for everything from the economy to the

It has been more than a week since Pierre Poilievre finally realized he had to soften his image or give up any hope of ever being Prime Minister. So he gave himself a waxy looking makeover, and tried to fool us into believing that he's really a nice guy. But

Pierre Poilievre has always enjoyed being a bully, so it's not surprising that he should enjoy looking like one. With his cruel eyes staring out from behind his small town bank manager glasses, searching for the man he hates above all things, the decent Justin Trudeau. For a while the glasses helped

When I woke up last Sunday morning I knew I was going to have a challenging day. It was Pride Parade Day in Toronto, and as I prepared to head downtown with a small group of friends, at times I wondered whether I was going to survive. For starters, weather

The plan was just another example of Pierre Poilievre’s feverish compulsion to destroy Justin Trudeau and Canada. Not necessarily in that order. He announced that he was going to personally filibuster Parliament and delay the latest budget until Trudeau agreed to mutilate and neuter the carbon tax. But sadly for Poilievre, while the

I couldn't stay up to watch the coronation of the mad Con Queen Danielle Smith. I already knew that in a backward bigot province like Alberta she couldn't lose. And I didn't have the time wait for the rubes to learn how to count the ballots, and make it official.

Pierre Poilievre has been laughing a lot recently. Or in his case opening his mouth and showing his teeth. He's trying to soften his bestial Con image, but don't be fooled. His hate mongering campaign to try to destroy Justin Trudeau continues, and is getting, even more desperate and dangerous. Read more »

I’ll never forget the day I attended a Poilievre leadership campaign rally at the Steam Whistle brewery in my neighbourhood. It was a hot day, the Cons were sweating like pigs. And Poilievre’s speech was so boring I was getting ready to leave, when suddenly the grubby demagogue started chanting “Defund

As I watched the ritual humiliation of Donald Trump the other day, I couldn't help wondering how his Canadian stooge Pierre Poilievre was feeling. For Poilievre owes him so much, and so many of his Convoy Party are also Trump supporters. The ghastly Pee Pee was too cowardly to come

I always knew that Pierre Poilievre would take us to a very dark and very dirty place. I knew that he's a cold cruel Con who gets his kooky thrills by destroying things rather than creating them. A ghastly bully who enjoys the pain of others. I knew that his creepy

Ever since I saw his graduation photo, and the bizarre inscription he chose to go with it, I have always believed that Pierre Poilievre suffers from a serious mental problem. For the obvious thrill he gets out of threatening poor and vulnerable Canadians is deeply disturbing, and potentially dangerous. And now

Pierre Poilievre has been crawling through the right-wing sewer from a very early age. He hung out with kooky weirdos even before he joined the bigots of the Reform Party. He was Stephen Harper's faithful little Gauleiter and serviced him shamefully, trying to suppress the vote, make pensions harder to

Pierre Poilievre has made a lot of kooky really bad videos, but the one he made the other day in his limousine as he glided down the highway had to be one of the worst. It was yet another Trudeau hate video, but it was so ridiculous he looked like

I've been away, but it seemed to me like only yesterday that Pierre Poilievre shocked a lot of Canadians, by solemnly declaring that he was really a nice guy. He claimed that he didn't like all those F**K Trudeau flags, had no time for "rage," and seemed to suggest he might

For as long as I can remember, Pierre Poilievre has been a loud grating rage farmer, gnawing away at this country and its values. He is a misogynist, a bully, and an increasingly far right extremist, who seeks to diminish our Canada so he can make himself look bigger. And

It was great to be able to finally return to my peaceful neighbourhood by the lake, and find it looking as beautiful as ever.  And after a lot of travelling, and a case of the flu, I was tempted not to resume blogging until the New Year.  But I just couldn't

I never believed that the far right trucker's occupation of Ottawa was all about vaccine mandates, or bouncy castles, or as one kooky Con called it Canada's Woodstock. And after watching the Emergency Act inquiry I see I was right. That bestial spectacle wasn't really a protest, it was a Con attempt to

I always knew that Pierre Poilievre would never be able to make Canadians forget his shameful behaviour when the trucker convoy goons tried to bring down Justin Trudeau. He refused to condemn the hairy Con barbarians who held the helpless people of Ottawa hostage for almost a month, intimidated, tortured them, and drove so
