Last week, I wrote about, “Rethinking Canada“, in which I made the basic case for Alberta’s secession from the Canadian confederation. Every so often, when I bring the subject up in conversation, the reaction can be very emotionally charged. That’s perfectly fine, this is definitely an emotional topic for many people, and we are indeed…
Read moreRethinking Canada
It’s been almost three months since Canadians outside of Alberta and southern Saskatchewan sold out to expediency, jealousy, and entitlement – choosing to throw out the Conservatives under Stephen Harper, because they were buying into the string of untenable, unaffordable, and unwise bill of goods peddled by a man who has never held high office….

In my last post, I said I hoped I was wrong – and I was. I predicted a Liberal minority government. I’m working my way through the results, comparing my projections against the actual results, and I’ll put that analysis up later, but for now, I want to get my fingers on the keyboard and…

Read moreIpsos Poll: October 14 – CPC Minority most likely
Really quick entry here, as the numbers are shifting a lot and there’s a very large amount of uncertainty regarding Monday and what the end result will be. Ipsos came out with a poll today, which, when I ran it through my Projection Machine, yeilded the following: Party Projected Assured Probable Possible Long Shot…
Read moreCould Harper be Poised to Pull it off?
For the last few weeks, things have looked pretty grim for the Conservative Party; of course, that’s assuming you believe what the mainstream media tells you. The CBC, CTV, the National Post, and of course Pravda The Toronto Star all seem to be actively campaigning for the NDP/Liberal coalition. However, Ekos released a poll yesterday (well, it’s…

Earlier, I wrote about a co-operative community in Edmonton known as ArtSpace, which was peripherally involved in an ongoing, protracted labour dispute between AUPE, the Alberta Union of Public Employees and an organization called SAIL (Support for Artspace Independent Living.) SAIL provides, as you can read on their website, basic personal care services, meal preparation, and laundry. The…
Read moreThe Faces of ArtSpace
Behold: the Faces of ArtSpace. ArtSpace is a residential community in Edmonton. It’s a co-operative housing project. Approximately 180 people live there. Some of whom live there with the help of employees of SAIL (Supports for Artspace Independent Living). SAIL has their own entrance to the building. In December of 2012, SAIL’s health care workers –…
Read moreAndrea Horwath: Hypocrite
Ontario NDP Leader Andrea Horwath criticized provincial CEO’s for “nickel and diming” taxpayers, expensing “coffee and muffins” as well as “trips all over the world”, while expensing exactly the same thing: coffee and muffins.
Read moreGroupThink(tm) – Some Initial thoughts on the Calgary Election.
Many on the so-called “Liberal” and “Left of Centre” side of the spectrum have certainly treated me as an enemy. I’ve been told, by one socialist nitwit, that I was, (and I quote verbatim) “… no better than a rapist and murderer,” because I stood firm on an issue of strong personal conscience. Such statements,…
