OMG. Mothers hide your children. It appears that Stephen Harper has set out to try to woo Quebec. Stephen Harper and more than a dozen of his cabinet ministers chose Quebec to kick off the Tories’ political “summer of love,” wooing support with their economic plan and a pledge to

Montreal Simon: Dean Del Mastro and the Ghastly Cons
Uh oh. I KNEW it was a mistake to make Dean Del Mastro, the Con point man on the robocall scandal. One moment he was leading the charge, bellowing like a bull, claiming da Liberals did it, and that the Cons didn't do dirty stuff like that. The next moment
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Jason Kenney and the Royal Jelly
As you probably know I'm not exactly a fan of Jason Kenney. Ever since he said that gays should be free to marry, but only if they married someone of the opposite sex, I have had trouble taking him seriously eh? And I don't think I could EVER trust a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Jimbo Flaherty and the Vanishing Economy
I'm sad to see that so many GM workers are losing their jobs in Oshawa. The Canadian Auto Workers union received official notice Friday that GM will begin shutting down its consolidated assembly line in the fourth quarter, which will wipe out 2,000 jobs, reducing the number of GM employees

They were out in the streets of Montreal again tonight, for another casserole protest or cazerolazo The 31st night protest comes as a growing number of Montrealers join a neighbourhood-wide cazerolazo – casserole protest. Since the weekend, hundreds of people in the island's central neighbourhoods have taken to their balconies,

They marched for three months. In the cold of February and the chill of the Maple Spring. Many of them were roughed up, or arrested for no good reason. For most of that time the corrupt Charest government refused to talk to them, just tried to divide and conquer. They

When I read this story about Rob Ford's latest bully eruption. Rob Ford is not denying Toronto Star reporter Daniel Dale’s allegations that the Toronto Mayor charged at him with his fist raised during a Wednesday night confrontation on public property behind Ford’s home. When asked by the National Post
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Peter MacKay and the Flying Piano
I always knew that sooner or later Dumbo MacKay would hit the eject button by mistake, fly into the air, and blame the whole darn cabinet. Defence Minister Peter MacKay says cabinet ultimately signed off on the figures the Defence Department cited publicly for the cost of the F-35 stealth fighter
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why I support the Quebec Student Strike
It's reached a point where I almost can't bear to read or watch any MSM coverage of the Quebec student strike. Because all I usually see is a bunch of kooky old right-wing pundits flapping their gums, or hissing like kettles. Like the grotesque Con dwarf Rex Murphy. Who should have
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Stephen Harper Losing His Marbles?
I told you last night I've never seen Stephen Harper look so weak and so vulnerable. So wonderfully insane, so beautifully SCARED. Well, that's the photographic evidence, and this is why. The federal New Democrats are enjoying a rise in support that puts them ahead of the Conservatives following the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Woody Woodworth and the Egg Man
Gawd. What a horrible way to begin my day. All I could think of was Stephen "Woody" Woodworth polishing his big teeth, and preparing for his big day. Even my egg started to look like him, and I hardly dared boil it, in case it should hatch. For who knows
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Wild Hog Gang and the New Alberta
Wow. What a dramatic finish. The rednecks were squealing with anticipation. The beer was on ice.The Big Oil Barbie was so sure she would win. But in the end the old wild hog couldn't make it up the hill of its own excrement and bigotry.Read more »

I spent a really quiet Earth Day. Paying homage to the sun, using as little energy as possible, and wishing I was in Montreal. Read more »

Oh no. Bang me with a bong. What a gaffe. I thought 4/20 was every day of the week. Not an annual protest. A crowd estimated at more than 10,000 people gathered outside the Vancouver Art Gallery Friday for the annual marijuana smoking event known as “4/20.” That just keeps
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Peter MacKay and the F-35 Songs
Golly. I’m soooo jealous. Why can’t I be as popular as Peter Mackay? Everywhere you go these days you find people singing songs about him. First there was this brilliant piece by our very own Jim Bobby. Now let’s have a big hand for the Canadian Beaver Band… Damn. I
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Con Photo-Op Machine
When I first saw this picture a couple of years ago, I remember being seized with the sudden urge to run to the toilet, and vomit violently. And of course I never forgave Bryan Adams. But now that I’ve heard his version of what happened I’m feeling a little more
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Bobo Cons and the Chinese Menace
Golly. I see Peter MacKay was in the hot seat again today. Claiming he’s smart enough to keep those fancy jets from costing us an arm and a leg. And failing miserably. When questioned by reporters Tuesday, MacKay cited segments of Ferguson’s report that he said showed Parliamentary Budget Officer
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Moral Abyss
Holy horses’s head. Let’s put it this way eh? It wasn’t exactly the Con mob’s finest hour. First they were fingered by the Auditor General for diddling the truth. So that’s it then: They knew and they lied. To Parliament. To all of us…if the AG is to be believed —
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Christian Paradis and the Kafka Cons
OK. So let me get this straight. The Con stooge Christian Paradis is stumbling though an ethical mine field. The opposition is calling for a fresh ethics probe following new allegations about the conduct of federal Industry Minister Christian Paradis. The call comes less than a week after Conflict of
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Failed Assault on Thomas Mulcair
Well I see that even before Thomas Mulcair rose in the Commons today, the Cons sent out one of their attack chihuahas to try to “define him.” Or in their mob lingo, bite his balls knees ankles. “This hug-a-thug, soft-on-crime leader will return Canada to policies favoring the rights of
