He likes to think of himself as a Great Warrior Leader. And the greatest political genius this country has ever known.And of course his faithful fanatics in the PMO groom him like a queen bee, and feed his delusions.But these days I wouldn't be surprised if they are all sitting

Montreal Simon: Julian Fantino and the Royal Conadian Choir
When I heard the news that Julian Fantino had met with a group of veterans in an apparent effort to rebuild all those bridges he has blown up in the last few years, I was suitably impressed.Until I found out the meeting was at the Citadel in Quebec City, not Ottawa
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why The Harper Cons Must Pull These Porky Ads
As you know, I had a little fun yesterday with this latest Porky Action Plan ad, produced and directed by the Con Ministry of Propaganda and Disinformation.Because it's so misleading, so obviously partisan, such a blatant attempt to brainwash Canadians with their own money.I simply can't help myself… For how

She's the latest victim of the Con regime's war on Canadian veterans. A Royal Canadian Legion chaplain who lost her position for having committed the ultimate crime in Stephen Harper's Canada:Standing up for our veterans and our wounded soldiers. Read more »

When I first heard the rumours that Stephen Harper was about to go for a walk in the snow. Or whatever. And announce that he planned to step down in the New Year, I must admit I was stunned. It just didn't seem to make sense.His fear campaign is boosting his polls, the unemployment
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Joe Oliver’s Dangerously Reckless Budget Scam
Well as you know, I wasn't exactly impressed by Joe Oliver's totally political fiscal update, and by the way he is recklessly blowing the surplus.To try to buy votes and leave no money in the cupboard, so the opposition can't make their own spending promises.While also leaving no money for a rainy
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Vladimir Putin, and the Great G20 Showdown
OMG. I see Stephen Harper has stolen the spotlight at the G20 summit, by going dictator to dictator, with Vladimir Putin.Stephen Harper told Russian President Vladimir Putin flatly that he needs "to get out of Ukraine," when the two met at a Group of 20 summit of major economies in
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Politics of Fear
As I've mentioned several times recently, I've never seen this country so paranoid and so fearful.So that even a small marine police exercise in the bay the other day, had some people wondering whether the terrorists were coming.The ones Stephen Harper would have us believe would behead us in our
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Stephen Harper Couldn’t Hide Any Longer
He has always been a strange bird. When it comes to the Great War on Terror, or any war from 1812 onwards, he's a raging chicken hawk. He can't get enough of it, or squawk loud enough But when it comes to the Great War on Climate Change, he has
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Joe Oliver and the Incredible Shrinking Surplus
It was hard to imagine a scarier sight, than old Joe Oliver delivering his fiscal update to an audience of Bay Street business types the other day.And announcing that Canadians should support the Cons, because he's blown the surplus trying to buy votes.So they can't trust the opposition to run or ruin
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Great Failed War on Marijuana
As you know, Stephen Harper has made The Great War on Marijuana one of his main weapons in the Great War on Justin Trudeau.So he could accuse him of being a dangerous junkie who would make the drug more accessible to kids… But when that attack ad didn't work, he
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Great Benito Leader
There is an old internet adage called Godwin's Law, that dictates that among other things, one can't call Stephen Harper and his Cons Nazis.And I don't, because it also wouldn't be decent. It would diminish the deaths and the suffering of Hitler's many victims. And of course, because it's not strictly
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Road to an Early Election
I didn't watch the ceremony at the National War Memorial, but I see that Stephen Harper made it back from China just in time to take the starring role.So he could take advantage of this country's massive emotional upheaval.Pose as a Great Strong Leader keeping us safe in a time
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Great Shabby Trip to China
Well it wasn't much of a trip, not the grand photo-op he was expecting.He never got his pandas.And as for those two caged Canadians they're still in a Chinese jail. China’s second-most powerful leader emerged from a meeting with Stephen Harper to say his country’s courts alone will decide what happens
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Tony Clement’s Orwellian "Open Government" Plan
I suppose we should have known that anything Tony Clement proposes would be hideously flawed, so rotten is his record.And his so-called "Open Government" plan" is no different.The Conservative government has rejected calls to reform the Access to Information Act as part of a new openness plan. The final version

Who can forget how Stephen Harper shocked the world a few months ago by suddenly and loudly declaring that the North Pole belonged to Canada?Even though it actually belongs to Denmark.But who knew the stunning proclamation also sent shockwaves through the cowed ranks of his own civil servants?New documents suggest

Two years ago he told us that he was pressing the "reset button" on his plan to buy 65 F-35 fighters from his friends at Lockheed Martin, after it was revealed that their cost would blow Canada up instead of the enemy.He promised us his corrupt regime would look at other
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Tax Evasion: When the Cons Are Part of the Problem
As probably you know, the Con regime has given the Canada Revenue Agency more money to go after its enemies.While depriving it of the resources and the inspectors to go after tax evaders.Well now it turns out there may be method to that madness. For it seems that when it
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Regime and the Great Bridge Debacle
Well I see that Denis Lebel, Stephen Harper's Quebec lieutenant, has been forced to beat a humiliating retreat.After trying to rename Montreal's Champlain Bridge after the famous hockey player Maurice "Rocket" Richard.Only to fail miserably. The replacement for the Champlain Bridge will not bear the name of Montreal Canadiens hockey legend
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Dirty War on the Unions
It's a foul anti-union bill worthy of a Banana Republic or a tea bagger place like Alabama.It would strip unions of their privacy rights, bury them in paperwork, and cripple their ability to defend Canadian workers.It was introduced by the obscure Con backbencher Russ Hiebert in 2011. And all but
