We’ve recently made significant headway in our Stop Online Spying campaign—Bill C-30 is finally getting the media coverage it deserves and Canadians are engaging both online and off in this…
Once more our democratic traditions and rights are under attack by people who would deprive Canadians of the rights that men and women have died to protect. Let us not…
In an age where the “online spying” and “indefinite detention” become tools by the government to suppress the population and create fear of dissent, I have become completely convinced that…
A Liberal party staffer has admitted to being behind the @Vikileaks30 campaign on Twitter. As observed at the time, apparently it is okay for Vic Toews to push a bill…
I was disappointed to see Bob Rae apologize to Vic Toews today for the Vikileaks campaign. Not because of the apology itself, which was the decent act of a decent…
It was bad. It was really bad. It was the worst week the Conservatives have had since they became a Majority Government. Bill C-30, the “Protecting Children from Internet Predators…
On Monday, the provincial public works department put a limit on the size of trucks that can go over the left bridge at Placentia. This came after someone inspected the…
The LPoC owns up; the CPoC stonewalls. Worst part is Kinsella was right and we’ll never hear the end of it.
I didn’t think of this in my last post (which is why he’s paid to do this, and I’m not), but Kinsella is right. It’s highly unlikely that it was…

Congolese security ensures order and access at polling station. Experts recommend similar strictmeasures in Canada to limit election irregularites.
I sent a customized form letter to the Prime Minister, the heads of the RCMP and Elections Canada, and opposition party leaders. Goodale is CCed supposedly. I’m curious to see…
There was a sense of definite frisson in the House for a Monday, which often tend to be sleepy. Harper was present (unusual for a Monday), and the press gallery…
Today WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files – more than five million emails showing the inner workings of Statfor, a Texas-based “global intelligence” used by large corporations to monitor…
Robert Borosage wrote about Mitch Romney’s objectives at Campaign for America’s Future. The words were for Romney but, with a few changes, they are relevent to the tiny portion of…
Illustration stolen from Alison at Creekside, an excellent place to start learning about Robocon or Suppressiongate or whatever we are calling the latest bit of epic malfeasance on the part…
My favorite enabler is Andrew Coyne, because he gets quoted all the time by Progressive Bloggers and always gets a pass as a voice of non partisan conservatism. Re-read Mr.…
