I suppose it's only fitting that it should be Peter MacKay, the one who pimped the Progressive Conservative party to Stephen Harper and his Reform cowboys, who should make the announcement.And that the hooker regime that would do ANYTHING to win or steal an election, should be the one to re-criminalize prostitution.

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Excruciatingly Embarrassing Supreme Court Fiasco
Gawd. I bet I know how Stephen Harper is spending the May Two-Four weekend eh?Trying to build up his courage to say sorry to the Chief Justice for smearing her so viciously, like a thug or a maniac.And hoping that nobody noticed how he jinxed the Montreal Canadien's first game

by: Obert Madondo | May 18, 2014 Obert Madondo, Editor, The Canadian Progressive The RCMP last week charged Bruce Carson, a former aide to Prime Minister Stephen Harper, with illegal lobbying and influence peddling. This is further confirmation that Harper is the world’s worst talent scout. Even more interesting is the fact that
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Stephen Harper Was Forced to Change His Story
He has apparently retreated to his bunker, surrounded by his shrinking inner circle, in the one place where he feels he's still in TOTAL CONTROL.And his many enemies real or imagined can't get him.The wild rage is over. But now, as Tom Flanagan recently warned us, comes the ghastly darkness.“He

More so than any Prime Minister in Canada’s history, Harper is hell-bent on imposing his political agenda on Canada’s courts. But there’s another way to look at it, based on a view shared by Stephen Harper and others in his inner circle, that judges on Quebec’s senior courts are too
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Supreme Court Smear and the Incredible Shrinking Peter MacKay
I have never had much respect for Peter MacKay since the day he sold out his Progressive Conservative party to Stephen Harper's Reform Alliance.For as the moderate Con Lowell Murray said at the time, it was the end of a proud party, and an act of pure treachery.Just days after

Well I have to admit that I'm not in the best shape myself. And that I will be hobbling around on crutches for about a week.But I want to thank those of you who sent me all those sweet comments. And all the nurses who spoiled me rotten. And our wonderful medicare

Well I must admit that there are so many things I want to do with my free time, now that the Winter from Hell is over and it finally feels like Spring.Almost all of them have to do with bikes and boats.And blogging about the horror of Harperland is not one

Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s attack on Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin is an attack on Canadians and Canadian democracy. It’s unacceptable. by: Obert Madondo | May 4, 2014 Prime Minister Stephen Harper is so desperate for political capital he’s willing to publicly smear the Supreme Court of Canada and its Chief Justice, Beverley

In the wake of a series of failed gambits involving the Supreme Court, we now find Harper attempting to assassinate the character of the Chief Justice. “I can tell you this,” said a clearly irked Harper, who appointed Nadon last September after commissioning independent legal advice that approved of the

His massive propaganda machine has been working overtime to try to soften his image, but it's just not working.Not when he is now in one of his wild rages, not when the monster is aroused, not when his evil madness is out of control.For there he was today going after
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Foul Assault on Beverley McLachlin
I knew he would go after the Supreme Court, now that he is so bitter and crazy desperate.I knew that he would not be able to contain his anger, after losing five SCOC decisions in a row.And that his rage would explode out of every orifice like vomit or diarrhoea.But who

If I didn’t know better, I’d swear that Harper doesn’t know how to read a legal decision. Yesterday, in Question Period, Harper said the following: “The Supreme Court has ruled in its wisdom that the federal government can neither abolish the Senate nor, in fact, can the federal government actually

As those of you who follow politics in Canada know, the Supreme Court of Canada told Stephen Harper on Friday that if he wanted to either reform (7 provinces/50% of pop) or abolish (unanimity + Senate agreement) the Senate, he needed to do something he hates doing – build a

Golly. I don't know who looked more more beaten or more pathetic today, Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre. It was too close to call.But what is certain is that both were humiliated beyond belief.Harper slapped in the face by the Supreme Court, and sent crashing to the canvas. Stephen Harper

I can hardly believe it, so disturbing, so absolutely insane is the idea.Stephen Harper has just been slapped in the face by the Supreme Court for trying to appoint a judge who wasn't qualified for the job.He has been humbled and humiliated by a 6-1 decision.He should be sitting in
Continue readingThe Cracked Crystal Ball II: Further Analysis On Marc Nadon’s Appointment
Marc Nadon is, for now at least, out of the picture as far as Canada’s Supreme Court is concerned. Frankly, I know very little about Justice Nadon’s beliefs and history as a judge. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he happened to lean towards Mr. Harper’s “hang-em-high” approach to
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Supreme Day of Humiliation
It has to be the most humiliating moment of Stephen Harper's political life.He tried to appoint a judge to the Supreme Court who wasn't properly qualified, for crass political reasons.He rushed the appointment through Parliament, and then tried to change the law retroactively to make it legal.He tried to subvert the

The Day Stephen Harper Was Pounded By the Supreme Court http://montrealsimon.blogspot.ca/2014/03/the-day-stephen-harper-was-pounded-by.html Have to admit I had to read it twice..but yes, Nadon was re-jected byHarper’s own appointees! Every one of ‘em…wow, it must be Canada, or something…. It’s a good day for Canadian citizens..and another round of eating crow (poor

Well it's lucky he is in Ukraine challenging Vladimir Putin to come and fight him. Or doing whatever he can to inflame the situation and win the ethnic vote.Because if he was in Canada, he'd be lying on the canvas after being pounded by the Supreme Court.Read more »
