In, albeit not their sleaziest act, the Harper government blanketed the Ontario federal riding of Scarborough-Agincourt with flyers, aimed at the Liberals, for the upcoming bi-election. Not unusual during an election campaign. What made these flyers beyond the pale, was their content. Hoping to tap into the abundant immigrant community

CANNABIS CULTURE – So I received a cease and desist order via registered mail today from ZIG ZAG. It’s 3 pages of their request, followed by 50 pages of their copyrights they own. In one part their letter mentions “Even though your use of our client’s copyrighted works make a

Whatever else one might be tempted to say about Harper, nobody is going to claim he is not politically savvy. His latest move – considering changing marijuana laws to include a ticketing system – is tactically brilliant. Consider the context: Justin Trudeau has adopted the brave stance to support marijuana

Hey, hey – whatever happened to Harper’s Reefer Madness? Word from Elmer’s unfortunate boy, Peter MacKay, is that the Harper regime is looking to backpeddle on its get tough on drugs policy.

The always charming Ms Coulter equates marijuana with ‘retard pills.’ One can only assume she comes by her own mental deficiencies naturally. Ann Coulter: Obama acts like he’s from Kenya — and weed is a ‘legal retard pill’ (via Raw Story ) President Barack Obama may not be a covert

Turning points. Here are two graphs that show a changing tide. I have already written about trust in corporate media tanking. Now we can see a turned tide in pot use. And in Canada prostitution is no longer illegal. We are either entering a time of abject moral decay, or

With the Supreme Court striking down Canada’s prostitution laws, they have forced the issue into the public sphere. Within a year, Parliament has to decide to pass new laws regarding prostitution, or decide not to. Undoubtedly this is going to be a highly politicized topic and much like the Liberals

Justice Minister Peter MacKay is hinting that the government might take steps to “modernize” Canada’s marijuana laws: Fining pot smokers for possession of small amounts is one policy the government will likely consider.“That doesn’t mean decriminalizing or legalizing, but it does mean giving police options, for example, to issue fines

Well I see Stephen Harper has returned from his disastrous attempt to try to force Obama to approve the Keystone pipeline. And that after shooting himself in both legs by insulting the American President, the long ride back from New York City was more like Napoleon's retreat from Moscow than Lincoln's
