Steve Nash in Toronto?
My God, that would be so awesome. Will it happen? Of course not. Why would the incompetents at Maple Leaf Sports actually stop offering up stinkers, year after year, when…
Warren
The Nanos thing
What’s it mean? Well, after the polling industry’s Alberta debacle, I don’t put much stock in polling, these days. You shouldn’t either. But if it’s true, it means that Bob…
Tea Party North Tempest
I am reliably told that the source of some of this anonymous griping to the Star about Tim Hudak’s leadership comes from none other than Lisa MacLeod, previously Head Kool-Aid…
It’s never the crime, it’s always the cover-up, part ad infinitum
Next time the National Post lectures the rest of us about openness and transparency, blah blah blah, be sure to have this one handy: “In the meantime, there was as…
Vote Shithead!
We in SFH are in a bit of conflict, because Joey’s Sudden Death Records is going to be distributing the CD version of our new record, but we are simply…
Ontario PC MPP Bill Walker, scumbag
Just named me, and a personal relationship, in the Leg. I dare him to repeat it when he isn’t protected from a libel lawsuit. I dare him. (And if he…
Wildrose redux: why the Internet is fun, etc.
Wildrose not as scary as some say The Daily News (Kamloops) Fri Apr 20 2012 Page: C1 Section: Opinion Source: Vancouver Province It is intriguing to hear the gathering chorus…
A lobbyist is a lobbyist is a lobbyist
I’m one. So is the United Church and the Salvation Army. So are plenty of folks. What brings the word “lobbying” into disrepute is crap like this. And, no, I’m…
Life goes very fast
In this extraordinary case, in less than three minutes. Don’t be surprised if this affects you emotionally.
Thanks, Ken, I actually do love to hear that
From reliable source(s), an exchange that took place between and Ken Zeise, who was until recently the PC Party President, at the Mississauga South Ontario PC AGM: Zeise told me…
In today’s Sun: not all of us predicted a Wildrose victory…
Campaigns matter. Stephen Carter, the election strategist who took Naheed Nenshi from nowhere to capture Calgary’s mayoralty, is the same guy who engineered Redford’s huge win on Monday night. Carter…
These are a few of my favourite Tweets
For the past while, I’ve been pretty open about my enthusiasm for Alison Redford. I’ve also been pretty critical of her main opponent, Wildrose’s Danielle Smith. I haven’t hidden it.…
Centrist politics ain’t dead – in Alberta or elsewhere
Sarah Palin North got beaten, badly. The PC leader who impressed me so much, months ago, won big. Quick takes: Rod Love has gone into hiding. A hole has been…
In today’s Sun: why cons are winning
But that’s just politics. When Canadians are probed about their attitudes and identities — the deep-down, emotional stuff that doesn’t easily lend itself to words, but which drives political choices…
Meanwhile, back at Yale, Adam Goldenberg is furiously tweeting about the merits of separatism
In the future, if you are to look up the dictionary definition of “idiotic,” this will be one of the examples offered up.
Sigh
Speaking for me, myself and I, a election would’ve been quite acceptable. We would have won a majority, and the Ontario PCs would have been reduced to third-party status. Also,…
Wild-eyed (not Wildrose) prediction: Redford remains Premier
Wildrose has been dropping sharply since the bozone layer eruptions began. The PCs now own Edmonton, and the huge Wildrose lead in Calgary has vanished. Rural Alberta is rural Alberta:…
More from the Wildrose bozone layer
I love it when conservatives give writing tips, and then misspell two key words in three sentences: Hey Kinsella: You would make a great writer for the National Enquire. Have…
Conservatives love Big Tobacco
This story, about the loathsome Bev Oda’s willingness to blow the equivalent of most Canadians’ monthly pay on herself, reminded me of this unforgettable photo: Isn’t that gross? What a…
