I wrote this post a few years ago, but I can't think of anything else to say about the horror of war, that would not bring back some more nightmare memories for me and my companion. So here we go again…———————————————————————————————————————–.It's Remembrance Day 2019, and a time to remember all

Montreal Simon: Jason Kenney and the Wacky Wexit Weiners
I have always believed that Jason Kenney's religious fanaticism, his inner demons, and his burning ambition, would eventually threaten the survival of this country.And sure enough, first he stoked the fires of western alienation to unite the Cons and get himself elected premier. Now he's using the threat of separation to try
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Don Cherry Should Be Fired Immediately
Don Cherry has always been a crass, loud mouthed bully and buffoon, and a terrible example for young Canadians.He glorifies violence, he is a Trump groupie, he calls decent progressives "pinkos" and those who believe in climate change "cuckaloos."But now he is suggesting that immigrants are less patriotic than other Canadians because
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Media Finally Goes After Andrew Scheer
In one of my last posts I wrote about Andrew Scheer's bizarre performance after emerging from a bruising seven-hour caucus meeting.And how he tried to convince us that his Cons were united, and that he was really a winner not a loser.Which didn't really surprise me. They don't call him a serial
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Rex Murphy and the Religious Bigotry of Andrew Scheer
It's now been quite a few years since the hideous Rex Murphy regularly disgraced the CBC's flagship news program The National, with his reactionary views and his Big Oil propaganda.But Murphy is still around, still pimping for the tar sands, still going after Justin Trudeau as only a rabid Con
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer And The Con Road To Ruin
It was Andrew Scheer's first meeting with his caucus since his election night defeat, and it went on for almost seven hours.So I'm sure many people waiting outside must have thought that Scheer was flogging himself like a good Opus Dei groupie, and promising real change.But if they were thinking that,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Most Horrible Halloween
I wonder if Andrew Scheer will be dressing up for Halloween tonight, as he has done before.Although the way he looks these days is probably scary enough.AAAAARGH.But what I think it's fairly safe to say, is that he won't be running the same Halloween greeting he ran last year.Read more
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Andrew Scheer Probably Won’t Be Able To Save His Job
I don't know why Andrew Scheer doesn't accept his fate graciously, or at least stoically, like a good religious fanatic should.Accept that even after the foulest campaign in Canadian history, and the all out support of our shabby Con media, he STILL couldn't beat Justin Trudeau.Recognize that after being exposed as a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau and the Con Apocalypse
It's been almost a week and I still can't get those amazing election night sights and sounds out of my mind. The glorious victory, the happy couple, the cheering crowd chanting "Four more years !!!"And of course the piercing screams of Cons in pain.Because for many of them it really was a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Humbling of the Religious Fanatic Andrew Scheer
Andrew Scheer is looking a lot more humble than he was just two days ago, when he described his humiliating loss as a " first step" to victory.And said he couldn't wait to go after Justin Trudeau again. Now the sounds of sharpening knives seem to have tempered his wild enthusiasm.But
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau’s Huge Carbon Tax Victory
It took a lot of courage for Justin Trudeau to impose a carbon tax on Canadians, in a country where the word "tax" can be political poison.The Con premiers rose up against him. Their ugly supporters threatened to kill him.And the Ugly American Andrew Scheer vowed that the very first thing
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Hidden Hand of Stephen Harper
I knew Andrew Scheer would be a poor loser. He was so sure he was going to win, and he lives in his own dark reality.So I knew he could never accept the way he was humiliated by Justin Trudeau. Still I was hoping that Scheer might eventually decide to do the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau’s Wonderful Humiliation of Andrew Scheer
For more than two years Andrew Scheer has smeared Justin Trudeau on a daily basis, and recently he seemed sooooo sure he would replace him and become Canada's next prime minister, or Pope.And so were his ugly Con supporters, who were screaming, and hissing, and fighting over who would get
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day That Could Decide Whether Our Canada Lives Or Dies
I waited until the very last moment to write this final post of the election campaign, for a very good reason.It was such a nice day I thought I should take a little more time to reflect on, or at least try to forget the most disgusting campaign I have
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Kinsellagate Scandal
It's been really quiet in my neighbourhood recently. Most of the tourists have gone, the fairs are over, and most of the party boats will soon be moving to their winter berths. Which is just as well, since I badly need some quiet time to recover from this hellish election campaign.Which thanks
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Lies That Could Cost Him the Election
Andrew Scheer had a funny look on his face, at a rally in Fredericton this morning. He was trying to look like a winner.But instead he ended up looking like a desperate loser, after being made to look like a liar. Again.And although many Canadians already know that Scheer is
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Ugly American and the Road to Catastrophe
As you know, I always considered Andrew Scheer to be more American than Canadian, long before it was revealed that he had been hiding his dual citizenship.His scary religious fanaticism, his slobbering service to Big Oil, his obvious contempt for our humble but precious Canadian values, made that only too
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Election 2019 and the Malignant Influence of Parson Manning
It's been almost thirty years since Preston Manning and his Reform Party cowboys galloped into Ottawa and started trampling on our country and its values.They had "The West Wants In" tattooed on their…er…saddles, as they stampeded into our parliament.Parson Manning thundered that they had come to elevate our politics, take
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Electoral Reform Cult and the Vote Splitting NDPers
As Jagmeet Singh heads for the finishing line, still urging Canadians to vote for the NDP even in ridings where that party can only split the vote and elect Cons, his supporters react in kind: And since I can imagine what they will say, if they elect a Scheer majority that
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Canada Heading For A Coalition Government?
For years I dreamed of a mighty progressive coalition that would unite to topple the increasingly sinister Stephen Harper.And I will never forget how happy I was to see progressives of all colours marching together after the would be dictator prorogued Parliament.Or forget how much I hoped it would encourage the
