It was one of the most disgusting political spectacles I have ever witnessed. A bully show if ever there was one.The ratty con media ganging up on Justin Trudeau and demanding that he serve the decent Bill Morneau on a bun, with a big piece of cheeseTo the great joy of

Montreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Sad and Disappointing Saguenay Adventure
Oh no. Poor Andrew Scheer must have been so disappointed. I'm sure he had high hopes of winning yesterday's by-election in the Saguenay.Especially after asking the Madonna at Cap Trinité for some divine intervention.But sadly for that creepy religious fanatic, she wasn't interested.And neither were the voters.Read more »
Continue readingAccidental Deliberations: Tuesday Morning Links
This and that for your Tuesday reading. – Yves Engler discusses how Justin Trudeau is now the face of the exploitation of poor countries and workers by the Canadian mining industry. And Penny Collenette writes that governments and business should both bear responsibility for human rights – though it’s worth

Well the rats in our Con media must be feeling really proud of themselves. And so must Andrew Scheer.Proud and relieved.For not only did the media's assault on Bill Morneau facilitate his mugging by special interests. The kind the Cons exist to pleasure.But their chorus of phony outrage also allowed Scheer to
Continue readingMontreal Simon: How The Cons Became The Levant Party of Canada
As you know, Andrew Scheer shocked a lot of people the other day, by abruptly ending a newser and running away from reporters.After one of them asked him a question about his campaign manager, Hamish Marshall, and his ties to Ezra Levant's hate mongering Rebel. But while most people assumed that Scheer
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Andrew Scheer Ran From The Media
It was one of the most bizarre actions ever by a Canadian political leader, and definitely the most cowardly.Andrew Scheer was at a newser yesterday, trying to criticize AND claim the credit for Justin Trudeau's tax changes. And needless to say was already looking like an idiot.When just about ten minutes into the newser, a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Resurrection of Kellyanne Conway
I'm sure you remember how Kellyanne Conway seemed to be everywhere after Donald Trump's election victory.Offering the novice president advice, or acting as his mouthpiece on CNN and other TV networks.But after a while she became a little too comfortable in the Oval Office… And some began to believe the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Many Crusades of the Con Monster Andrew Scheer
As I'm sure you know by now, the sinister religious fanatic Andrew Scheer is on a crusade to try to turn Canada into a theocracy.Two days ago I told you how he had humiliated the would be feminist Rona Ambrose, by arranging to replace her with a candidate who once
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Con’s Alt Right Candidate
One week ago, I wrote about how Andrew Scheer had given his blessing to a certain candidate in a by-election to replace Rona Ambrose.Even though that candidate, Dane Lloyd, was less qualified than some of the other ones in that race.And had once called feminists "feminazis."Well now it turns out that Lloyd
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Tax Scam Is Finally Being Exposed
For months Andrew Scheer has been able to pull off one of the greatest tax scams in modern Canadian history.With the help of the greedy rich and our shameless Con media, he has been able to portray the Liberal government's attempt to make our tax system fairer, as a nefarious scheme
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Andrew Scheer Canada’s Milo Yiannopoulos?
In my last post I looked at how the creepy social conservative Andrew Scheer was accusing the Trudeau Liberals of "intolerance," for refusing to accept his nomination of Rachael Harder as chair of the Committee on the Status of Women.Claiming that he was surprised and shocked that Harder's candidacy was rejected

Today’s announcement by the TransCanada Corporation that it would no longer pursue the construction of the Energy East Pipeline from Hardisty, Albert to St. John, New Brunswick triggered a storm of statements, accusations and criticisms from politicians trying to drive their political narratives. Here is a quick look at who is
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Con War On Women
From the moment he was named Con leader, Andrew Scheer has been building an inner circle of religious fanatics like this country has never seen before.Almost half the members of his so-called "shadow government" are social conservatives who are strongly anti-abortion.And his choice of a candidate to replace Rona Ambrose
Continue readingBabel-on-the-Bay: It is time to fire Bill Morneau, Justin.
Bill Morneau has a straight-forward job. As complex as the Finance Department might appear to the average Canadian, the Member of Parliament for Toronto Centre has the credentials that say he should be capable of handling the finance portfolio. He is also considered to be a generally good guy. It

I've been having so much fun enjoying the dying days of summer that I haven't spent much time in my political observatory, scanning the stars, and trying to figure out where this country is going.And the polls haven't helped since they have been all over the place. First the Liberals were ahead,

As we all know, Andrew Scheer likes to claim that he's a godly man, with a "positive" message for Canadians, or Conadians.And not long ago he asked those Conadians what issues they would like him to focus on when Parliament returned. And although one might think that they had told him to focus on
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Polls Wars: Who Is More Popular The Cons Or The Liberals?
I realize that a poll is just a snapshot in time, and that all of them come with a margin of error.But trying to figure out who is doing better these days, Andrew Scheer's Cons or Justin Trudeau's Liberals, is getting to be almost impossible.For first there was a Forum poll five
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the New Reform Party
Andrew Scheer likes to describe himself as a new generation leader, but like everything else about him that claim couldn't be more fraudulent.For instead of leading his Cons out of the darkness of the Harper years, he's taking them back to the cowboy days of the Reform Party.And he just

Oh dear. Yesterday the grinning religious fanatic Andrew Scheer was flying high, after a Forum poll showed him and his Cons leading the Liberals for the first time in a long time.But I wondered whether the poll was an outlier.And now it seems it was.And poor old Scheer isn't grinning anymore. Read
