I was scouring Memorandum last night and I see Atlas Shrugs blogger Pamela Geller is posting about her convo with Ezra Levant on Sun News (she calls it ‘Sun TV’). The subject is a topic I blogged about earlier: a Pennsylvania judge dismissed charges against a man for assaulting another because the

Conservative operative Michael Sona, is taking the fall for the voter suppression scandal and has resigned as a staffer. What the conservatives would like us to believe is that he acted alone. Give me a break. Sona, in the background during Ezra Levant’s sponsorship of Ann Coulter, is a product

Last week, Conservative MP Larry Miller, compared support for the gun registry to Adolf Hitler and his apparent disarming of Germans. Most people were shocked but they shouldn’t have been. The NRA uses this argument all the time and before they pried the gun from his “cold, dead hands”, Charlton Heston

Ezra Levant, above, when he was running for the Canadian Alliance Party. After a heated battle, he stepped aside so that Stephen Harper could run in a safe riding, after being voted head of the Alliance Party. Close confidant of Jason Kenney and Stockwell Day (coined the term “Stockaholic”) Levant is

At a January meeting with her Alta. counterparts, B.C. Premier Christy Clark said what’s obvious: …[she] bluntly told Ms. Redford that public opinion is against the [Northern Gateway] pipeline in British Columbia – Alberta gets the benefits while B.C. carries the risks of environmental disaster, according to senior officials in B.C. …and

In March of 2001, Rahim Jaffer, an Alliance MP, got into a bit of trouble when a hoax he had helped to perpetrate, blew up in his face. Jaffer then owned a string of coffee shops in Edmonton, one of them set to open on the very day that he

Pictured: Ditchburn (left) and Levant (right) Who knew Canadian Media Twitter Wars could be fun? Who knew that was even a thing?! Well it is. And it’s spectacular! Let me set the scene. Jennifer Ditchburn, who works for the Canadian Press, writes a story about government bureaucrats posing as new

Blogger Scott Tribe shared a link yesterday to an article that appeared in Slate magazine, which is owned by the Washington Post. Saudi Arabia. Nigeria. Venezuela. Canada? Is our neighbor to the north becoming a jingoistic petro-state? We think that Stephen Harper is only our problem, but like it or

My neighbour told us of an experience he had with the local McDonalds. He was sitting in one having breakfast and found himself offended by a debate playing out on the television, that included racial slurs. So he went up to the counter and asked if they could change the

suntv_news.gif Just over a week before the Northern Gateway Pipeline hearings began, EthicalOil.org and its allies launched a pre-emptive PR offensive on environmental and First Nations groups who oppose the pipeline. Their new website, OurDecision.ca, and ad campaign are an attempt to invalidate opposition to the pipeline by pointing to

Levant said the oilsands have been “defamed” by a number of organizations… Ezra, getting them all riled up in Fort Mac.

And, oh yeah almost forgot to tell ya, about that Keystone boondoggle … I doubt that Stephen Harper or the Conservative agenda factored one bit in the Obama administration’s decision to scrap postpose the Keystone XL pipeline decision – at least until 2014 – but it sure does not look good

Enbridge oil spill.jpg If the pipeline giant Enbridge Inc. is content to cower behind a 20-something blog manager rather than acknowledge its role in the recent attack on the patriotism of Canadian environmentalists, what hope have we that the company would ever stand accountable for the accidents that will occur

hamish marshall and stephen harper.jpg As the Northern Gateway Pipeline Project Joint Review Panel begins hearing over 4,000 comments submitted by community members, First Nations, governments, and environmental groups, the tar sands front group EthicalOil.org has launched its latest PR offensive in support of the pipeline. OurDecision.ca, the new astroturf ad

Once in a while, something crosses my desk that makes me cross my eyes and pound my head against the desk in frustration. This is not one of those things. This is one of those things that makes me crinkle up my face and exclaim “What the hell?” If you

Tuesday, January 10, 2012 What began as a smear campaign against West Coast Environmental Law and other environmental groups has crossed a line with oil industry advocates EthicalOil.org and Ezra Levant (author of the book Ethical Oil), taking aim at the thousands of ordinary Canadians who have registered to express

Hi! My name is Tia! I’m a radical, eco-terrorist, and enemy of the state now! Whee! (This is almost as random as the people Harper appointed to the senate the other day, and makes just as much sense.) Due to my fervent opposition to the Enbridge Northern Gateway Pipeline, I can now add these spiffy

Oh no. I knew Ezra Levant’s obsession with Chiquita Banana would end badly. First he lost control of his senses, now he’s lost control of his bowels mouth. Winding up a 10-minute denunciation of the banana company’s decision to boycott oil from Alberta’s tarsands deposits, Levant signed off his Dec.
