Montreal Simon: The Harper Cons Shame Canada Again
OMG. That wretched little Monkey King has done it again.Pooped on the planet. And shamed us in the eyes of the world.The Harper government is pulling out of a United Nations convention that fights droughts in Africa and elsewhere, which would make Canada the only country in the world outside
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Rob Ford, and the Con Liars
The great Abraham Lincoln once said no man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar. But then he didn't live in Con Canada eh? And he didn't know Stephen Harper. Because either the great man was wrong, or Harper has a phenomenal memory. Just like his scary
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Cons and the Reform Gang Rebellion

Oh. My. Furry. Photo-op. It was supposed to be the animal show of animal shows.The Con Ministry of Propaganda and Disinformation's most spectacular production. A chance to boost Great Ugly Leader's sagging polls, by making him look as cute and as cuddly as a giant panda.But somehow, despite the heroic efforts of the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: How to Fight Back Against The Porky Action Ads
Gawd. You just can't teach old Cons new tricks eh?For there they are bombarding the airwaves with their grotesque Porky Action Plan ads again. Even though it's costing a fortune. The Harper government spent $21 million on major advertising campaigns under its Economic Action Plan brand in 2011-12, according to the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Great Con War on Crime and Medicare
Oh no. Remember how I said the other night that Jimbo Flaherty probably hated having to call his new budget Porky Action Plan 2013?Because there couldn't be a worse way to sell ANYTHING.Well forget that theory eh?Because there was Jimbo yesterday getting a Porky Action sign engraved on his new shoes. Read more

When I watched this stunning moment in Question Period today, at first I couldn't believe it. Then I was outraged, and then I was disgusted.For nothing could have summed up better the total and absolute moral corruption of the Con regime.Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Thomas Mulcair and the Attack of the Oil Pimps
It's like a really bad horror movie.One that could only happen in Harperland, where madness reigns, and the Big Lie RULES.A B-movie where Thomas Mulcair gets swarmed by a small army of Con oil pimps, for warning the Americans the pimps are trying to scam them. While the Con pimps, who
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Ezra Levant and the Apology Song
Well I'm glad to see that Ezra Levant has apologized for his hateful comments about the Roma.Although it did take him forever to put his lips together and spit out the words I'm sorry.And knowing him, I'm pretty sure he's even sorrier that he had to write this formal apology. Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and Our New and Armed Forces
Ever since he came to power Stephen Harper has tried to use the military for crass political purposes.First he tried to use it to change his image from a nerdy policy wonk, to a Great Warrior Leader.And when that failed miserably, for obvious reasons, he set out to change the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Joe Oliver Goes to War Again
Uh oh. He's BAAAAACK!!!Joe "Oily" Oliver, the screaming scarecrow of the Tar Sands.First he called Canadian environmentalists job killing extremists, and tools of foreign interests.Then he promised we would be able to drink the tarry bubbly from the tailing ponds. And that it would taste like prosperity.Now he's back as crazy as ever, waving
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The House of Manning and the Con Conspiracy
They flew into Ottawa this weekend like a swarm of bats from some dark netherworld.Hundreds of Cons, religious fanatics, sinister would be Republican operatives, climate change deniers, right-wing kooks like Ron Paul.All there to try to figure out how to make Canada conservative FOREVER.All there at the invitation of the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stompin’ Tom Connors and the Con Stooges
It was a wonderful Canadian moment.One of my Canadian heroes, Romeo Dallaire, talking about another of my heroes, the late great Stompin' Tom Connors.Telling Evan Solomon about the day when him, his U.N. soldiers, and about 200 civilians were in a Rwandan hotel under heavy enemy fire.How he played Stompin'
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Captain Harper and the Partisan Threat
OMG. I don't know how to say this. Because I don't want to cause mass panic eh?But Stephen "Queeg" Harper is looking and sounding crazier than I've EVER seen him.At least since the time he lost his marbles strawberries, and turned the PMO upside down looking for them.For there he

I see that Hugo Chavez has lost his long battle with cancer.Venezuela’s government announced the death of President Hugo Chavez on Tuesday, ending 14 years of charismatic rule by the firebrand socialist but leaving his party firmly in control of the nation. Vice President Nicolas Maduro’s voice broke several times
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Cons and the Shaming of the Poor
Every time Diane Finley tries to defend why she is waging war on the poor, she claims that it's just a question of saving money.Just like she did today when Thomas Mulcair went after her for ordering EI inspectors to barge into the homes of the unemployed. “Service Canada has a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Diane Finley’s Hideous War on the Poor
She has always been one of the most brutish Cons.A hardline right-wing ideologue who would wage war on Canada's poorest and most vulnerable citizens.And have the unmitigated gall to deny it.Last month she claimed that EI inspectors didn't have quotas for uncovering fraud that they were expected to discover. Only to
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Jason Kenney and the Bieber Factor
As you know I've always considered Jason Kenney's singular contribution to Canadian politics a real freak show.I've had trouble taking that ghastly religious fanatic seriously since he said that gays were free to get married. As long as they married someone of the opposite sex.One moment he's accusing Thomas Mulcair
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Could the Cons Really Rule Forever?
When I think of a fascist nightmare I usually think of Orwell, and Big Brother, and this famous line: If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever.But now I've got another nightmare to worry about eh? The thought of the Con regime
