If you're a progressive in Canada, this is the kind of CBC News panel that can really ruin your day. Old, grim, predictable, boring, and as Con as they come. And like all the other CBC News panels and opinion pages, so totally biased the people's network might as well

Montreal Simon: Has Rex Murphy Finally Left the CBC?
For years I have tried to avoid watching the CBC National on Thursdays so as to avoid the At Issue panel.For it was always a Con clown show under Big Daddy Mansbridge, and judging from what I've seen so far, will remain that way under the very Con-friendly Rosemary Barton.A
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Andrew Scheer the New Jason Kenney?
When we last left Andrew Scheer he was walking through a quiet suburb looking like a dazed Forrest Gump, or a weirdo trying to pick up women.And now we know what the ad produced by his new Mini-Me, Hamish Marshall, the nasty little man who used to work for the hate
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau and the Con Media Losers
It's now been more than four days since Justin Trudeau missed a meeting of APEC leaders, and our Con media went ballistic.Claiming he'd sabotaged a trade deal, and that all the other leaders were furious, and that Canada's reputation was RUINED!!!!And nobody was more outraged than the pompous hack from
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Does The Con Media Hate Justin Trudeau So Much?
Well it's now been two days since the Con media went after Justin Trudeau for allegedly sabotaging a trade deal by missing a meeting. In what can only be described as a pig wrestling contest. Which as you know ended badly, with our porky media looking like idiots. Since they
Continue readingMontreal Simon: How The Con Media Were Made To Look Like Idiots
Remembrance Day is always a sad day, but it was a particularly gloomy day at the Parliamentary Press Gallery.Yesterday they were squealing like hogs, accusing Justin Trudeau of having sabotaged a trade deal by missing a meeting.And along with the creepy Andrew Schmear all but demanding that Trudeau resign IMMEDIATELY
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Millennials Who Will Destroy Him
Even though I despise Andrew Scheer with every bone in my body, I can't help feeling a little bit sorry for him. For every day he sets out to smear or schmear Justin Trudeau, and lie like a thief… Justin Trudeau’s wealthy friends pay less, while he hikes taxes on 81% of
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Sad Rise and Fall of the Con Dickhead Pierre Poilievre
For weeks Pierre Poilievre has been enjoying his moment in the spotlight again, attacking the Liberals as only the man known as Pee Wee or Dickhead can.While our shabby Con media licked and sucked him like a lollipop.And he must have felt like he was back in the good old
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why The Con Media Failed To Bring Down Justin Trudeau
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
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The CBC’s War On The Liberals (Continued)
Yesterday I wrote a post about the CBC's frenzied attempts to try to bring down the Trudeau government, and make the sinister religious fanatic Andrew Scheer Prime Minister.And how in pursuit of that goal it seems to have sacrificed its principles and its sanity. And I was pleasantly surprised to see how
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Bill Morneau and the Monstrous Assault of the Con Media
For weeks Bill Morneau has been under an all out assault by the Cons and the Con media.For having made a couple of rookie political mistakes, the decent Morneau has been smeared as a crook by scumbags like Pierre Poilievre.Even though there is absolutely no evidence that he has done
Continue readingMontreal Simon: John Ibbitson’s Obscene Ode to Andrew Scheer
I realize that the Globe writer John Ibbitson has written some rotten columns before, most of them in praise of Stephen Harper.And I realize he works for a newspaper that somehow managed to endorse the Cons, if not Harper, in the last election.Which was of course somewhere between absurdity, and insanity.And after
Continue readingMontreal Simon: When Progressives Shoot Themselves In The Foot
As you may know, one of the things that drives me wild is to see progressives attacking each other, instead of the real enemy.Only to end up shooting themselves in the foot.I've seen what that has done in Canada, and how it gave us ten years of Stephen Harper.And more recently
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Theresa May and the Amazing Campaign of Jeremy Corbyn
When Theresa May called a snap election, I'm pretty sure she was confident her Cons would be able to destroy Jeremy Corbyn. Her campaign manager Lynton Crosby, the malignant Aussie known as the Wizard or Lizard of Oz, must have had her dreaming of making meat pies out of the mild-mannered Labour Party leader.
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Ghastly Beginning of the Con Clown Convention
As I watched the Con leadership candidates deliver their final speeches yesterday evening I was struck by three things:How small the convention room was, how old and white the audience.And how absurd were those speechesThirteen candidates vying to replace Stephen Harper as permanent Conservative leader delivered their final speeches Friday
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Media and the Fake Helicopter Scandal
It was a horrible way to end a long and grim week. I crawled across the Friday finishing line, turned on the TV, and there was Rosemary Barton, looking even more like a dominatrix than usual.And leading her grim increasingly boring show with the story of Justin Trudeau, the helicopter,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: How The Media Made Kellie Leitch Our Trump Impersonator
I must admit I still find it hard to believe that an educated person like Kellie Leitch is doing what she is doing.Trying to whip up xenophobia for crass political purposes. And sounding more extreme with every passing day… Or more insane. For what else can you call a member
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Media and the Liberal Fundraising Gang Bang
As we all know, the Con media and the opposition have been having a ball attacking Justin Trudeau and his Liberals for charging people to attend Liberal fundraisers.And suggesting that Trudeau could be bought for $1,500 bucks.Even though he has denied that in a manner that seems to me both honest
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Media and Justin Trudeau’s Long Honeymoon
Ever since Justin Trudeau was sworn in as Prime Minister, the Con media has been declaring that his political honeymoon is over.And in recent weeks with the confusion over electoral reform, and the controversial pipeline decision, that clamour has become almost deafening.With one story after the other declaring that his golden ride
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Michael Harris On The Demonization of Justin Trudeau
The other night Justin Trudeau turned up at an event in Toronto's Distillery District, bearing a bag of gifts to add to a so-called Toy Mountain for poor children.And I was amazed to see how cheerful and relaxed he looked, after the barrage of criticism he has had to endure in the
