Well as you all know, Tom Mulcair is perched precariously on a narrow plank, over the deep blue sea.With the big question being, will he be standing or swimming on Monday? But even as he marches or limps towards his destiny, some of the old guard ar…

Well it's been three days since Stephen Harper and his Cons teamed up with the beasts from ISIS to make that ghastly attack ad.And even though it starts with the sinister ISIS national anthem, and goes downhill from there, they still haven't been arrested for promoting terrorist propaganda. The Anti-terrorism Act

Yesterday was the 800th anniversary of the day King John reluctantly signed the Magna Carta, the document that was the foundation of our parliamentary democracy, and the rule of law.And most importantly declared that nobody was above the law, not even the king.So it's ironic that few people have celebrated that anniversary

It couldn't be a worse nightmare. David Cameron's Conservatives have a majority and are preparing to carve up what's left of Britain's welfare state.They are planning to make massive cuts to welfare payments for the poor and the disabled, continue their privatization of that country's medicare system, and scrap the human
Continue readingMontreal Simon: How Progressives Can Engage Young Canadians in the Election Campaign
When Joe Oliver made his outrageous statement about leaving Harper's granddaughter's generation to pay for the Con's revenue killing tax policies, he only said it because he thought he could get away with it.Because he knows, like we all do, that a lot of young Canadians don't bother to vote.And
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Justin Trudeau and the Great Canadian Coalition
Ever since Stephen Harper came to power and Canada's long nightmare began, I have tried to remain strictly non-partisan and support all three progressive parties.I have encouraged them to fight the tyrant as hard as they can, I have focused on the strengths of their leaders rather than their weaknesses.Because
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Bill C-51: Now More Unpopular Than Ever
Sometimes in this big beautiful country it seems like we are too small, too insignificant, too weak or too complacent to change anything.Helpless to stop the monstrous leader who is tearing its guts out, trying to change it beyond recognition, and trying to scare his own people into submission.But somehow
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Summer of Protest
At a time when Stephen Harper is trying to drag us into his monstrous darkness.By using fear as a weapon against his own people, whipping up war fever for crass political purposes, and trying to bribe us and brainwash us.While preparing to turn us into a police state, and sucking the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Bill C-51 and the Dangerous Apathy of Canadians
As you know I find it hard to understand why so many Canadians are so complacent about what Stephen Harper and his foul Con regime are doing to this country.Violating our values, making a mockery out of our democracy, and trying to turn us into a police state.And when I
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Harper Regime and the Summer of Protest
As you know I was so happy to see thousands of Canadians taking to the streets to let Stephen Harper and his foul Cons exactly what we think of them.Because I will never understand why we have remained so passive and so quiet for so many years, while Harper and his Cons
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Why the Struggle Against Bill C-51 Must Continue
It's taken me two days to come down from last Saturday's big demonstration against the Harper regime's foul Bill C-51.Because I do wear my heart on my sleeve, and it was so great to see so many Canadians in the street at last.Instead of letting Stephen Harper scare them into
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Canadians Sent a Message to the Terror Cons
It was cold wet and miserable across most of Canada today. A day to stay at home if ever there was one.But that didn't stop tens of thousands of Canadians from turning out to send a message to Stephen Harper and his foul Con regime. We are not afraid, and

As you know, I have a dream. One that I hold tightly to my chest in this dark Harperland, where hope goes to die.The dream of defeating Stephen Harper and his foul Cons who are trying to scare Canadians into voting for them.By helping to create a Great Stop Harper
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Rise of Tom Mulcair and the Missing Progressive Vision
I've always thought it was unfair that Tom Mulcair should work so hard and reap such little benefit.Because the way he grills Stephen Harper in Question Period, like a prosecutor does a criminal, is one of the highlights of my day.Especially since it drives Harper crazy, and makes him say
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Neoliberal Conspiracy
If you ever wonder how we could end up living in a world where the richest 80 people on Earth are now as wealthy as the 3.5 billion poorest people.Or wonder why the top ten percent in Canada are wealthier than the rest of us.Or wonder how the sinister ideologue
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Can Canadians Be Bought By The Grubby Stephen Harper?
He hasn't been seen for days, since he sent his shabby minions out to announce that he was proroguing the budget until April.So he's probably banging away on his piano in his gloomy basement, trying to figure out how he can restore the surplus he blew before he had one.So he
Continue readingMontreal Simon: All The Ways Stephen Harper Could Soon Be Gone
It's one of my fondest dreams, the day Stephen Harper finally leaves. And it can't happen soon enough.Because I honestly believe that him and his ghastly Cons are losing touch with reality, or think they can brainwash us all.And that we are all FOOLS.Because there he was in that latest

In my last post I looked at Stephen Harper’s ghastly record and wondered how he gets away with it. And I said that I was confident that although a lot of people in this country are discouraged, that record would come back to haunt him in the election campaign.Despite his desperate efforts
