It was one of the most bizarre actions ever by a Canadian political leader, and definitely the most cowardly.Andrew Scheer was at a newser yesterday, trying to criticize AND claim the credit for Justin Trudeau's tax changes. And needless to say was already looking like an idiot.When just about ten minutes into the newser, a

Montreal Simon: The Con Media’s Outrageous Assault on the Liberals
As you know I have very little respect for the corporate media in this country, for its right-wing bias couldn't be more shabby or more blatant.With only few exceptions, it's little more than a propaganda outlet for the Cons.Its mission is to return them and their creepy leader to power

It's that time of the year. The leaves are finally turning red, the nights are suddenly cool. After one of my the wildest summers ever, it's time to put away the boat.And prepare for winter in the Great White North.Sad.But the changing of the seasons can be beautiful where I
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Con’s Alt Right Candidate
One week ago, I wrote about how Andrew Scheer had given his blessing to a certain candidate in a by-election to replace Rona Ambrose.Even though that candidate, Dane Lloyd, was less qualified than some of the other ones in that race.And had once called feminists "feminazis."Well now it turns out that Lloyd
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Trudeau, Trump, and the Ghastly Margaret Wente
As you may know, Justin Trudeau is going to meet with Donald Trump this week to fight for the future of NAFTA. And try to hold back a tidal wave of protectionism. And since hundreds of thousands of jobs in this country hang in the balance, you might expect that most Canadians
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Tax Scam Is Finally Being Exposed
For months Andrew Scheer has been able to pull off one of the greatest tax scams in modern Canadian history.With the help of the greedy rich and our shameless Con media, he has been able to portray the Liberal government's attempt to make our tax system fairer, as a nefarious scheme
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Andrew Scheer Canada’s Milo Yiannopoulos?
In my last post I looked at how the creepy social conservative Andrew Scheer was accusing the Trudeau Liberals of "intolerance," for refusing to accept his nomination of Rachael Harder as chair of the Committee on the Status of Women.Claiming that he was surprised and shocked that Harder's candidacy was rejected
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Are the Scheer Cons Becoming the Trump Party?
I've been having so much fun enjoying the dying days of summer that I haven't spent much time in my political observatory, scanning the stars, and trying to figure out where this country is going.And the polls haven't helped since they have been all over the place. First the Liberals were ahead,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the Neo Nazi Invasion
As we all know, Andrew Scheer likes to claim that he's a godly man, with a "positive" message for Canadians, or Conadians.And not long ago he asked those Conadians what issues they would like him to focus on when Parliament returned. And although one might think that they had told him to focus on
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer and the New Reform Party
Andrew Scheer likes to describe himself as a new generation leader, but like everything else about him that claim couldn't be more fraudulent.For instead of leading his Cons out of the darkness of the Harper years, he's taking them back to the cowboy days of the Reform Party.And he just
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Poll Wars: The Liberals Are Back On Top
Oh dear. Yesterday the grinning religious fanatic Andrew Scheer was flying high, after a Forum poll showed him and his Cons leading the Liberals for the first time in a long time.But I wondered whether the poll was an outlier.And now it seems it was.And poor old Scheer isn't grinning anymore. Read
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Is Andrew Scheer Now More Popular Than Justin Trudeau?
It's going to feel like 40 degrees again in Ottawa today. And I was pretty sure that Andrew Scheer was melting.Not just because of the brutal temperature, but also because of the heat he's been taking over all the lies in his phony tax campaign.But could I be wrong?Could this nightmare
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why the Con’s Phony Tax Revolt Is Doomed to Fail
If you believe our Con media you might think that the entire country was rising up to fight the Liberal government's plan to make our tax system fairer.If you believe Andrew Scheer, you might think that millions of middle class Canadians are as mad as hell at Justin Trudeau for
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Disastrous Day In The Commons
It should have been a crowning moment for Andrew Scheer. His first day in the returning House of Commons, as the new leader of the Harper Party.His first chance to face Justin Trudeau, deploy his creepy grin, and claim he's trying to save small businesses from his greedy clutches… But
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Exposed: The Con Tax Scam to Fool Canadians
For weeks I've been warning that there was something funny or fishy about the way Andrew Scheer and his Cons were attacking the Liberal government's plans to reform our tax system.Warning that nobody should believe Scheer when he claimed he was trying to defend the poor rather than the rich.And
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Final Humiliation of the Con Clown Dean Del Mastro
The news hit me like a blast from the past. A very dark past. A past I sometimes wish I could forget. But there was Dean Del Mastro, who once somehow managed to be Stephen Harper's favourite Con enforcer AND his point man on ethics, on his way to jail. Again. To
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Cons and the Big Fake Tax Scandal
Michael de Adder is one of my favourite Canadian cartoonists, a guy I admire a lot even if I don't always agree with his political views.But sadly this cartoon is both disappointing and appalling.Not just because it demonizes an attempt to make taxation fairer in this country.But also because like
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Shameful Flim-Flam Act
We know that Andrew Scheer is a sinister religious fanatic. We know that he is a crass misogynist, and an anti-gay and anti-Muslim bigot.We know that he is a creepy demagogue, and a good friend of Ezra Levant.We know that he believes that we should pay to have children home schooled,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Andrew Scheer’s Crusade Is Heading For Disaster
In my last post I wrote about how Andrew Scheer had set out on his crusade, to try to bring down the Great Satan Justin Trudeau.Aided and abetted by a small army of religious fanatics, and the usual shabby posse of racists, misogynists, dirty old men, and anti-gay bigots.And so
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why Andrew Scheer and His Cons Have No Future
Ever since Andrew Scheer was chosen as the new leader of the Harper Party, I've been trying to explain to the few Cons I know, that they've made a terrible mistake. Trying to explain that by choosing a religious fanatic who would criminalize women, marginalize gays, and ignore climate change, they
