OK. Let me get this straight. The Republicans are still in shock.The crazed teabaggers are threatening to rip the GOP apart. Wednesday, the political direct-mail pioneer Richard Viguerie gathered a group of disenchanted conservatives for a news confer…

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Disastrous Tour of India
Well I see that Stephen Harper's Great Samosa Tour of India is finally over, and that it was a complete and utter disaster.As well as the most outrageous use of the taxpayer's dough abroad since Bev Oda bought herself a $16 glass of orange juic…
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Mitt Romney and the Con Cicadas
Oh boy. I don't know how to say this, but I feel I almost owe Mitt Romney an apology. For while it's true that he's a shameless huckster who lied so much he almost fooled enough Americans into making him President. Which scared the bejee…
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Scary Samosa Tour
I must admit that when I first saw this picture of Stephen Harper and his wife strolling in the deserted grounds of the Taj Mahal, my heart almost skipped a beat.Because I'm such a romantic eh?Until I found out that thousands of tourists and others…
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Halloween Nightmare
I'm quite sure that when he was a callow youth Halloween was Stephen Harper's favourite holiday.A day when he could bully and scare other kids to death, and get away with it.Just like he now horrifies decent Canadians, every day of the year.Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Porky Tales and the Madness of Con Canada
After disconnecting myself from the 24-hour news cycle for about a week, I decided to check out what Stephen Harper and his Cons had been up to in my absence.Because as we all know, you can't take your eyes off that porky gang for a moment, in case you miss
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Klowns Strike Again (PG rated)
Gawd. Living in Harperland isn't easy eh?Sometimes you weep, and sometimes you laugh.And sometimes on a day like this one you can do both. Weep for the bullied children of Canada who the Cons are refusing to help.Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Stephen Harper Got Punked
Golly. I see Stephen Harper FINALLY got a chance to show why some weird religious organization, named him the Statesman of the Year.No. Not at this meeting with Benjamin Netanyahu, the creator of the "Bibi Bomb" as inspired by the Road Runner.Because that was just man love.Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Margaret Wente and the Sorry Song
I have to admit that I am enjoying every twist and turn in the Margaret Wente plagiarism scandal.Not because I really care whether she ripped off the words of others eh? For that snooty right-wing hack was NEVER original. And in her hands even the works of Shakespeare would read like monkey
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Slow Degradation of Stephen Harper
I think this cartoon by the Star's Theo Moudakis neatly sums up what Stephen Harper's Con regime is doing to our image abroad. Making us look small, cheap, shabby. And like Britain's royal loyal corgis. For the Cons can try to downplay the embassy move, call it no big
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Tubby Van Loan and the Mighty Mulcair
If anybody still thinks that the Con regime is not out of control, the sight of Peter Van Loan in Question Period today should have been enough to cure that delusion. For there was Tubby, as his friends call him, filling in for Stephen Harper, clutching a piece of paper
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Con Army
I see that Stephen Harper's Great Con Clown Tour of the Arctic, has ended with another phony photo-op. Prime Minister Stephen Harper took in a military training operation in Hudson Bay on the final day of his northern tour Friday, observing a scenario involving Canadian Forces intercepting an ecotourism boat carrying
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Cannibal Country
OMG. The horror, the horror. Is that Hannibal or Harper? I was hoping that Great Ugly Leader's Tour of the North would be a total bust eh? But who knew things could go so horribly, wonderfully, wrong? Yesterday the critics were calling it a doggy circus. Today they're accusing him
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Cons and the Patronage Machine
Uh oh. I see the sign on the Con Farm barn has been changed. Ignorance is Strength is still there. But Patronage is Bad, the slogan that Great Napoleon Leader used against the Liberals, has been subtly revised. Now it reads Patronage is Porky, as in normal. Or yummy. Read more
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Vic Toews and my Manitoba Nightmare
Oh. My. Zombie. What a horrible nightmare. I'm pedaling furiously across Manitoba, desperately looking for a cheap motel. Because I've been warned not to be out on the road after dark. Especially when there's a full moon eh? And then suddenly I'm stopped by a cop and charged with SPEEDING
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the War Olympics
Well the Olympic Games are finally over, and I must say I enjoyed the show, from the stunning beginning to the wild and wonderful end. I thought the Brits did an amazing job, I was proud of all our athletes, whether they won a medal or not. And the only
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Rotting Regime
Sometimes it's the little stories that tell you so much about the way Stephen Harper's Con regime is slowly rotting from the head down. Like the story of how our mad emperor tried to turn his government of Canada chuck wagon winged chariot into Air Con. Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Rob Ford, and the Deadly Game
It had to be one of the most grotesque photo-ops ever. Rob Ford, the brutish Mayor of Toronto, gripping Stephen Harper's limp wrist in his meaty paw, in a police station. The two Cons carrying on like Laurel and Hardy, belching bullshit, and playing cheap politics with tragedy. Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Jason Kenney and the Monstrous Cons
I made this little Photoshop graphic a few years ago, but I see I was completely right to call Jason Kenney a freak. For only a freak would run a petition on his website inviting people to thank him for being Jason Kenney. Canadians who want to sign a petition showing their
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Julian Fantino and the Mediocrity of the Cons
I will never forget the look on Julian Fantino's face, the day he first took the loyalty oath to Stephen Harper, and became a Con cabinet minister. He looked stunned, as if he still couldn't believe it. The Great Fantino, the Crime Busting Crusader, the copo de tutti, had
