Corey Watson just traded to Edmonton...

I have no doubt she was just repeating nonsense that she was told while in her riding by fellow lunatic Green Party boneheads. It was a sad day when that woman finally found a riding in Canada dumb enough to elect her, because now as a taxpayer I am paying her salary, and I find that repulsive. Maybe she should move back to the USA, her homeland, where filthy language spewed in public forums is more accepted. This is Canada Lizzie. Yankee go home.

It's not foreign. What I meant was that Elizabeth May can get away with acting that stupid in public and the leftist media will just ignore it, or worse, make excuses for it. And that's a double-standard. But what I'm saying is; what you say the leftist media ignores, happens by the 'rightist' media who will ignore whomever it is, who does their stupid act in public. It's the same thing from all sides. It's mostly all bullfrog. It's not just what they "ignore", it's the insane reaction to any perceived grievances committed by Harper, and to a lesser extent Trudeau, and the free passes given to the NDP and the Greens. If Trudeau or Harper had been on stage, drunk and dropping F bombs at a media dinner, the Toronto Red Star and Pravda and Mail would be plastering their front pages all about how they should be resigning. All I see in the CBC today are the excuses for May's idiotic behavior. That's just not right. They should be calling on her to resign, and rightly so. It's time for May, and hopefully the entire Green Party, to go bye-bye.

LOL! Oh my ribs....

What the hell? Since when as a politician is that appropriate behaviour? Any way she could get fined for this? It's OK if you are a Green Party politician. They can do whatever they want. The NDP operate under similar rules.

And here's loony Liz making all of those saps in Victoria who voted for her feel so proud... Green Party Leader turned the air blue during an unusual speech in which she proclaimed her support for Omar Khadr and tossed an F-bomb at the government at the Parliamentary Press Gallery's dinner in Ottawa Saturday night. "Who knew Khadr is spelled K-H-A-D-R," she said in her speech that's been posted on YouTube. "Welcome back, Omar Khadr. It matters to say it. Welcome back, Omar Khadr, you're home." By this time Transport Minister Lisa Raitt is trying to get May away from the podium and the microphone. May did leave but not before taking a potty-mouthed parting shot at the government: "Omar Khadr, you've got more class than the whole f---ing cabinet."

Draisaitl/Merkley/Chartier with Morrisey and Bowey on the points will be a pretty potent power play unit.

I do agree with Ezra on the point that that lawyer of Khadr's is a total buffoon. Harper is a bigot - what an idiotic thing to say. Good grief.

Looks like Ezra has a beef with Joe Beef... http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/joe-beef-owner-david-mcmillan-ignites-boycottjoebeef-with-omar-khadr-tweet-1.3066175

Chartier and Golbourne are hurt, two big players. Chartier may be back soon though.

I just saw him last week. He didn't look like he was heavier. Don't get me wrong. I think he's a good player. If he can find a way to play like Tyler Johnson then great. I just don't think he's Tyler Johnson. And he's definitely not Johnny Gaudreau.

Nope. Wally's not going to do that, unless he's starting to go senile.

Unless Petan grows five inches this summer I don't see him making it out of camp this year.

LOL. Did you actually see what he said? He was actually very complementary of Notley and hopeful that she'll be a good premier, which for Ezra I am sure was hard for him to say. He also blasted Prentice and the Wild Rose leader who crossed the floor. I don't post much of Ezra's rants but when there's one that does seem to be at least somewhat non-partisan and not completely laced with far rightist rhetoric I'll share it here. And as for full disclosure - I went to school with both Ezra and Naheed Nenshi, who were best buds at that time, and got to know them pretty well, especially Naheed, who was and still is a great guy. Both of them were so involved in extra-curricular activities that I don't know when they slept. As a team they were amazing. In fourth year they took over the U of C Students Union, and in one year cleaned up years of mismanagement and debt created by idiot leftist arts students who had controlled council for far too long. Over the years, I've watched Ezra go far too far to the right, but that's where his bread is buttered, and Nenshi go a bit too far to the left. Both of them were dynamite when they were more in the center, to center-right, where the majority of voters in this country reside.

Thanks. I didn't realize that I was supposed to supply an entire thesis with a bibliography, but I already know that wouldn't matter anyway. You didn't supply any links whatsoever, and just concluded that Harper is "muzzling scientists". I don't believe it, because I haven't seen any real proof that this is actually happening. I did see a few years ago here in BC - we had a really bad sockeye salmon run. Supposed "government scientists" fell all over themselves running to the media predicting that this was the end of the sockeye salmon and of course it was all due to that horrible villain, man made climate change. Millions of dollars was needed "immediately", according to these supposed scientists, to launch "studies" and they ran around blathering alarmist bullshit non-stop about how the salmon were all doomed. Then the next year, there was the biggest sockeye salmon run since 1913. Tons and tons of sockeye salmon. So those scientists all looked like total idiots. Perhaps they shouldn't have been "muzzled", but also perhaps, there should have been some kind of media reporting system in place, such that they didn't just alarm the public over nothing, and also wouldn't make such giant fools of themselves. I'm just spit-balling here, but it seems like maybe, just maybe, if you are taking government money to study something, you should also follow some kind of reporting procedure on your findings. But "Harper is muzzling scientists" makes a great soundbite, so why not just say that I guess. Why didn't you? I supplied the link. What really pissed me off with this whole muzzling thing was that stupid march last year where supposed "scientists" marched on Parliament Hill to protest being "muzzled", and it turned out about 99% of the people marching were just loser leftists who march in every one of these stupid marches, be it a march against the oil sands or a "insert brain dead cause here" march. And of course the CBC reported that "thousands of scientists" were present. Just pure bullshit. And that's why it's hard to get behind anything or believe anything anymore because there is so much obfuscation and lying and fear-mongering going on. What's the actual truth? Are scientists "being muzzled"? I don't know.

I looked into this and from what I could read, this whole mantra that the government was "muzzling scientists" was a bunch of alarmist BS, much like the alarmist BS being spread about Bill C-51. Is the government really "muzzling" scientists? No. Not really. It's amazing how a soundbite these days gets into the public mainstream and then is repeated as gospel over and over again. Today all I see are idiots posting "#Harperisabigot" everywhere. Just ridiculous. These people truly are their own worst enemy.

I've seen a lot of people who I know have never owned a stock in their life crying about the sale of GM stock "at a steep loss". When the government received that stock of GM, it was pretty much worthless. Everyone was just hoping GM would survive. The fact that the government was able to get $3.5 billion for a company's stock, that was essentially bankrupt, is a big win, and it's too bad people want to play partisan politics and criticize the government for realizing some value on something that could easily have been a complete zero. Should the government have held on to the GM stock? If they had, and GM had gone back in the dumper, then the same people would be crying about how they could have had $3.5 billion and pooped it away because they didn't sell when they had a buyer on the table. The one thing I've noticed is that any information can be spun to the negative if put through different filters.

That's how I walk into the office every day. But I also don't wear pants while doing it.

Now we just need Bilikudi and Mulumba and we are set. What's the status on Henoc? Is he on the bubble with the Colts?

I have yet to ever meet a happy provincial or Federal employee. You guys always seem pissed off about something or other. Not saying you don't have the right to be. I just wish there was a way to fix this, other than of course, just throwing ever bigger gobs of cash your way.

I think Trudeau has to grow up a bit more before people will trust him. I don't see him winning this election, but definitely the next one. He's just got to stay the course, and appeal to a wide base of voters.

OK Ben Franklin. What is it that we are supposed to be so scared of? I think part of the problem is that the fear-mongering I've seen has all come from people I wouldn't let mow my lawn, that's how little respect I have for their intellectual capacity.
