I'm pretty sure that most Canadians know very little about Andrew Scheer, the new leader of the Cons, who likes to call himself "Harper with a smile."They just see a friendly looking man who always has a smile on his face, even when he's talking about the recent death of

Montreal Simon: The Day The Cons Became the Reform Party Again
When I saw Rona Ambrose at the Con convention giving her farewell speech, praising herself extravagantly and bragging about how "she could kick Trudeau in the balls," I knew it was going to be a weird night.And that I was right, Ambrose has no class.But who knew the Cons would end
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: Nigel Wright and the Con Scandal That Won’t Die
The timing couldn't have been more embarrassing for the Cons. On Saturday they will choose a new leader, and Rona Ambrose is still desperately trying to whip up interest in the event… The big day is almost here – on Saturday we're going to find out who Canada's next Prime Minister will
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Rona Ambrose and the Bleak Future of the Cons
With just three days to go before the Cons choose a new leader, I see that Rona Ambrose is still trying to whip up some interest in the event.Still claiming that she was always planning to leave. “If I was going to stay in politics, I would have run for the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Justin Trudeau Has The Wind In His Sails
It's getting pretty close to my favourite time of the year. Time to think about harnessing the wind out on the lake, and getting away from it all.Now that I have almost recovered from my motorcycle accident.Or just taking to my hammock, reading some real books, and making a list
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Lamentable Legacy of the Con Clown Rona Ambrose
It's not a very good picture, but I thought I'd keep it anyway, because it's historic. Sort of.A picture of the Con Queen Rona Ambrose announcing that she's retiring from federal politics. Which as you can imagine had the Cons and the pathetic Con media in a tizzy, praising her as the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Lisa Raitt and the Kamikaze Candidate
The hapless stooges in our corporate media like to describe Lisa Raitt as the most "moderate" candidate in the Con leadership race. The one who is so "nice" she doesn't stand a chance in that collection of racists and religious fanatics. But of course we know better. We know that
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harjit Sajjan and the Opposition’s Dirty Game
It may be the most overhyped story to hit the Commons in a long long time. And the most racist.But the Cons are desperate to find something, anything, to try to hurt the Trudeau government.So Rona Ambrose really did say this yesterday. But then of course she should know eh?Read
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Rona Ambrose and the Assault On Harjit Sajjan
The grotesque chicken hawk Rona Ambrose has disgraced herself so many times it's almost impossible to keep a body count.Whether demanding that we should drop more bombs on one country or another, or attacking the Trudeau children, or trying to prevent doctors from helping dying heroin addicts, she simply has
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Kevin O’Leary and the Death of the Harper Party
Kevin O'Leary is said to be leading the Con leadership race by a comfortable margin. Even though he won't commit to remaining Con leader, unless Canadians give him a majority.This is balls to the wall. I can’t do what I need to do in this country without a majority mandate. I can’t cast
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau and the Fight That Changed Canadian History
It's hard to believe, but it has now been five years since Justin Trudeau stepped into a boxing ring to take on the Con Senator Patrick Brazeau.And although it was only a charity fight, and it lasted less than three rounds.It was the biggest fight of Trudeau's career.Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Now Can We Call the Cons the Bigot Party?
Yesterday was the deadline for the Con leadership candidates to sign up new members. And as you can imagine, as the clock ran out on them, it was not a pretty sight. The stench of desperation hung heavy in the air, and the squealing was deafening.But at least they did manage to provide even more proof
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Michelle Rempel’s Outrageous Assault on Justin Trudeau
It's a sad thing, but Michelle Rempel's behaviour is starting to alarm a lot of people in Ottawa, or deeply concern them.For she just can't stop acting like she's boozed up, or stop directing torrents of abuse in the general direction of Justin Trudeau.I mean who can forget when she
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Rona Ambrose, the Budget, and the Scandalous Cons
I almost felt sorry for Rona Ambrose yesterday, as she tried to say something intelligent about the Liberal's new budget. Only to fail miserably.And end up looking, once again, like the village idiot. Claiming that Liberal spending was out of control, and that it was a "nightmare scenario."Read more »
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Clown Leadership Scandal Just Got Worse
In one of my last posts I wrote that the Con leadership race was starting to look like a crime story.And I suggested that it might be time to call in the police.Or at the very least the Keystone Cops.Because that grubby leadership race is becoming more and more farcical.
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why the Police Should Investigate The Con Leadership Race
The other day I warned that the Con leadership race was becoming more desperate and more porky by the day.With so many mediocre candidates, and no new ideas. And now to make matters even worse, the suffocating stench of scandal.With Kevin O'Leary aka Mr Wonderful, claiming he was robbed.Read more »

For years Ezra Levant has disgraced himself, and disgusted decent people all over Canada, with his ugly professional bigotry, and his total lack of class.Or the way he begs for money all the time, like a screaming beggar.But now Levant and his hate mongering rag The Rebel have finally hit
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Con Leadership Race Is Now a Stinky Scandal
It's a horrible sight, it sounds bestial. Oinky, oinky, honky honk!!!!And it smells even worse. But who can be surprised?As the never ending Con leadership race heads towards the final stretch, the stench of porky is in the air.And the most disgusting leadership campaign in modern Canadian history is in danger of gassing itself.Read

For months the ghastly Con leadership candidate Kellie Leitch has been demanding that refugees and immigrants be given her "Canadian Values" test.While never telling us what kind of questions she would ask them. But now Leitch has shared a few of them with supporters of the racist rag The Rebel.And as
