Montreal Simon: Jason Kenney’s Sorry and Surrealistic Terrorist Game
Well let nobody say I didn't warn them. I predicted Jason Kenney would be the worst possible Defence Minister for these troubled times.I knew that sexually repressed religious fanatic would be inflamed by a religious war, and the sight of so many men in uniform.And would soon lose control of

In the monstrous darkness of Harperland, and when I read a poll like this one.There’s rarely been a bill before Parliament that was more popular. The public Conservatives’ new anti-terror legislation is filling a public demand for tough new measures aimed at a terrorism threat that Canadians believe is serious,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Whispering Way to War
Golly. What a difference a day makes. On Wednesday Stephen Harper was loudly taunting the opposition.And all but inviting the terrorists to attack us.But yesterday he was suddenly more subdued, as if realizing what might happen if they did attack us. And Canadians blamed him.So he was barely whispering as he
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Michelle Rempel and the Horror of Stephen Harper
Well it's been a slow and sad descent for Michelle Rempel, into the darkness or the bowels of Harperland.From little Miss Con Goldilocks, to the most fanatical follower of her beloved leader Stephen Harper. The groupie of groupies.The bubbly bubbling fanatic who could put out a tweet like this one today…
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Terrorist Trap
Well just I predicted, Stephen Harper is moving quickly to take political advantage of that skirmish between our special forces in Iraq, and a group of ISIS terrorists.Using it to puff out his chest or his belly, and sound like a tough guy. "This is a robust mission, we're there
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Exposed: The Grubby Con War on Terror and Canadians
In my last post I wrote about how Stephen Harper is trying to use the Paris tragedy and the politics of fear to try to scare Canadians into voting for him. I highlighted this quote from Michael Harris: "Fear is Harper’s most powerful vote magnet; security is fear’s most reliable handmaiden."And
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the Rise of ISIS
Back in my teenage days when I was studying martial arts and fighting a lot, I tattooed this famous Sun Tzu quote on the back of my right shoulder:"Know your enemy and know yourself and you can fight a hundred battles without disaster."Which I deeply regret now along with so many
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Testing the Tolerance of Canadians
It was an interesting idea. Test the tolerance of Canadians at a bus stop in Hamilton, Ontario.By having the guy on the left pose as an anti-Muslim bigot, and insult the guy on the guy on the right while the cameras rolled.And although it was a little crude, and it did end
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Canada’s Son, and the Forgotten Soldier
There couldn't have been a more impressive and moving tribute. Thousands of people lining the streets of downtown Hamilton, to pay their final respects to Cpl. Nathan Cirillo. There couldn't have been a more heartbreaking sight… That little boy couldn't have been braver on such a sad day.The media couldn't expend enough
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Great War Election
Well at least now we know what will be Stephen Harper's main weapon in the next election campaign.Until about a week ago it was going to be all about the economy.But now he will mount his armoured closet.And it will be all about WAR. Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the Delusions of Salvation
It was a balmy 17 degrees, and my little corner of Canada looked very much like it always does at this time of the year.But the flags flying at half mast to honour our two murdered soldiers reminded me that this is no ordinary fall.We're at the beginning of Harper's
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Stephen Harper Was Forced to Hide in a Closet
It was a remarkable scene in the House of Commons. Stephen Harper hugging Tom Mulcair and Justin Trudeau. And I must admit I was impressed, because I've never seen Harper look so human.But then there's nothing like having to cower in a broom closet, while the Con caucus prepares to defend you
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the Song of the Chicken Media
Well it's the Thanksgiving Day weekend in Harperland, and we all have so many reasons to give thanks.Especially Great Leader.He finally got some good job numbers. As short-lived and as dubious as they may be."As a stand-alone report, this is no doubt highly impressive, but given the rising turmoil in the rest
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War: The Blood Moon and the Con Insanity
It's raining where I live tonight so I can't see the blood moon. But I'm sure if I was in Ottawa I would get a great view of it.Hanging low and bloody over the House of Commons.Because this was the day Stephen Harper finally got his War in Iraq.And it
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War: Churchill Moment or Swan Song?
It was the night before Canada officially goes to war, and no doubt in his command bunker Stephen Harper must have been in a state of feverish delirium.No doubt believing that Harper's War will make him look like a Great Strong Leader, and that he'll be able to destroy the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the Last Desperate Gamble of the Con regime
Eleven years ago Stephen Harper tried to drag us into a war in Iraq, and today he finally succeeded. Canada is heading to war in Iraq after Stephen Harper’s announcement that he intends to deploy jet fighters to join coalition air strikes against Islamic State militants for as long as six
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Slow Striptease to War
Well it's been a long slow striptease to war. A little tease here, a little tease there.One moment it was the Americans inviting us to take part in their new Great War on Terror. The next moment it was Stephen Harper inviting himself.One moment we had 69 soldiers in Iraq,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Road to War
I have no idea which voice in his head was commanding him, but it was a very different Stephen Harper who turned up in the House of Commons today. An unusually subdued version.He reached out to the opposition, answered their questions politely, instead of mocking them, or setting his howling
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Screaming Voices
It was one of the weirdest most surrealistic days in the long and dark history of Harperland.A day when all the voices in Stephen Harper's head seemed to be screaming at the same time.WAR !!!! PEACE !!!! EARLY ELECTION !!!!And in the House of Commons madness ruled.Read more »
