The “Do As I Say, Not As I Do” Award for 2020

It could be called the “DAIS N AID” Award, or the DAISY for short. If there is no such award there should be. It should be awarded annually to the politician or unelected high level bureaucrat who best exemplifies the “do as I say not as I do” principle. The political elites have been known to condescendingly dictating what their inferiors should and shouldn’t do while they blatantly do the opposite. They feel entitled to break the rules because they are in essence above the rules they set for others.

No Vaccine For You!

No Vaccine For YouSo sayeth the COVID-19 Nazis. At least not during the Christmas holidays. Ontario is like other jurisdictions where everyone MUST take the vaccine in order to stop the spread of the most over-hyped thing since Justin Bieber came on the scene. If you don’t line up and get your shot, people will die and it will all be your fault. You, that’s right YOU, are causing people to die! So you have to get a shot and the consequences future navigation throughout society without a government issued “Vaccination Card” will be pretty well impossible. So it was a surprise, or maybe not given the erratic state in which all levels of government operate, that vaccination centres closed down for the holidays. Despite the crisis that caused the elites to close the economy on the word of their WHO and UN masters, vaccinating people during the Christmas holidays was not important.

The Next Premier of Ontario Will Be…

In a previous column it was postulated the current PC premier of Ontario, Doug Ford, will be a one-termer. (Canada Free Press, Dec. 6, 2020). So if this turns out to be true, who will lead the Ontario government after the next election scheduled to take place in June 2022? It is perhaps better and certainly easier to begin by a process of elimination; which parties or leaders will not govern after Ontarians go to the polls in a year and a half from now? To begin with, we can rule out the Green Party of Ontario. Although party leader Michael Schreiner became the first member of his party to sit in the Legislature after the last election, no one is suggesting the party is currently anywhere close to obtaining party status let alone governing.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford will be a One-Term Wonder

Ontario Premier Doug Ford will be a One-Term WonderThe next Ontario election is scheduled to be held in June 2022. As is often said a week is a long time in politics and anything can happen during the next year and a half. Although it is not meaningful to predict election results this far out, it sure is fun. It is a matter of common sense if nothing else that it is a lot more difficult to prove a negative than it is to prove a positive. But not in this case. As it appears now the winner of the next provincial election will not be Douglas Robert Ford. Who will win is still up for grabs.

Coronavirus, Airbnb and Who the Real Racists Are

Coronavirus, Airbnb and Who the Real Racists AreCanada was one of the last major countries to make arrangements to bring its citizens back from China. The government also delayed making the decision that those returning from China be quarantined. There is a simple explanation for why it took so long for the Canadian government to act. It’s not a big deal. Since the outbreak of the Coronavirus the major concern of the politically correct politicians has not been the health of their citizens but racism. That’s right, racism.

A Government Agency’s Shocking Plan to Save Taxpayers Money

A Government Agency’s Shocking Plan to Save Taxpayers MoneyAnd it can only be described as shocking. A government agency, B.C. Transit, spent time in order to come up with a plan that saved the taxpayers of British Columbia hundreds of thousands of dollars. Such accomplishments are almost unheard of by governments or government agencies for whom money, other people’s money of course, is no object. Whatever the price, pay it and then go out for a drink and celebrate what a fine job you did in getting what you paid for.

Greta Thunberg—an Excellent Choice for Person of the Year

Greta Thunberg—an Excellent Choice for Person of the YearEarlier this week, Time Magazine chose Greta Thunberg as their Person of the Year for 2019. Finding it totally unnecessary to explain exactly who the 16-year-old Thunberg is, constitutes some proof the magazine made the right choice. Many people took to social media to criticize TIME’s choice, comparing it to the choice of Hitler in 1938 and Stalin the following year. Some seem to be under the impression the person or persons selected should be chosen for their goodness or positive contributions to society. But that is not the case.

‘Lest We Forget’ On the Way to be Forgotten

‘Lest We Forget’ On the Way to be ForgottenA few things occurred in the lead up to the November 11 Remembrance Day ceremonies this year. These events are proof positive the day set aside for those who fought for Canada, many making the ultimate sacrifice, is on the way out. During these times it is simply too politically incorrect to honour the country’s military. The major occurrence was what Don Cherry, former hockey player, NHL coach and Canada’s number one patriot said on the Nov. 9 edition of Coach’s Corner. Cherry talked about how few people wear poppies these days. He said:

Toronto’s Climate Emergency – Tourists Need to Stay Away

Toronto’s Climate Emergency – Tourists Need to Stay AwayIt is now official; after Mayor John Tory (aka Johnny Short Pants) whined Canada’s largest city has a “climate emergency,” city council voted unanimously that we in this city indeed have a crisis. This was accompanied by the usual claptrap about having zero carbon emissions in 2050, a year in which the current city mothers will be out of office, some of them dead.

Trudeau Decides Election Campaign Should Begin On…..9/11

Trudeau Decides Election Campaign Should Begin On…..9/11For the benefit of our American readers, when and how elections are held in Canada differ from those held in the United States. Although not necessary, Canada has legislated fixed election dates, the next one scheduled to be held on Oct. 21 of this year. Although not written in stone, the government is keeping with the date fixed by statute. While the campaign has been going on unofficially for weeks, certain things must be done in order for the official campaign period to begin. The Prime Minister must visit the Governor General and ask her to dissolve Parliament in order to begin the formal election period. Although the Governor General could technically refuse, that will not happen. As well as dissolving Parliament, the GG issues writs requiring elections to be held in all 338 electoral districts. This is generally referred to as “dropping the writ.”

Ontario Premier Needs to Have His Head Chopped Off!

Ontario Premier Needs to Have His Head Chopped Off!So said some of the demonstrators at a protest in front of the legislative buildings. Under the previous Liberal government, Ontario became the largest indebted sub-sovereign entity IN THE WORLD. Doug Ford and the PC Party swept to power on the promise to reduce spending and lower or eliminate taxes, especially the job killing cap and trade imposed to save the world from climate change and make friends of the Liberal Party rich along the way.

The Media’s Reaction to Trudeau & LavScam Was Predictable

The Media’s Reaction to Trudeau & LavScam Was PredictableAfter Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his Liberal Party became involved in the scandal known as LavScam, much of the mainstream media turned on their one time golden boy who, until recently, could do no wrong. The featuring the PM in a negative light increased after former AG Jody Wilson-Raybould testified before the Justice Committee. It was difficult for even the most ardent Justin-lover to conclude JRW was lying when her testimony about political interference conflicted with statements made by Trudeau.

Oh Justin! Don’t You Resign Too

Oh Justin! Don’t You Resign TooYesterday Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s principal secretary, Gerald Butts, resigned. Currently the Liberal government is involved in its worst scandal yet, being accused of trying to get then Attorney General Jody Wilson-Raybould not to proceed with criminal charges against SNC Lavalin, a company that contributes big time to the Liberal Party of Canada.

Battle of the Brainless: Justin Trudeau vs. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Battle of the Brainless: Justin Trudeau vs. Alexandria Ocasio-CortezMirror mirror on the wall Who’s the dumbest politician of them all? It’s about time we definitively decide which politician has the fewest functioning brain cells. It comes down to an epic battle between Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY). Sorry Americans; I know you like to finish first in everything but in this contest you lose.

My Exciting Trip to the Liquor Store in Fascist Canada

My Exciting Trip to the Liquor Store in Fascist CanadaAs I wrote in an earlier article, new laws concerning drinking and driving came into effect in Canada on Dec. 18. As well as increased penalties, cops no longer have to have a “reasonable suspicion” that a driver has been drinking before demanding that driver provide suitable breath samples. As well, a police officer can demand someone provide breath samples if that person has driven anytime within the previous two hours. If the demand is made to a person drinking at home or in a bar and that person blows over the legal limit, he or she can be charged. It is up to them to prove that they were not impaired when they last drove.

Will Canada’s Harsh New Drinking & Driving Laws Be Effective?

Will Canada’s Harsh New Drinking & Driving Laws Be Effective? The country has been tending towards a police state for some time. Nowhere are the losses of individual rights accepted by so many people as when these rights are taken away in order to combat drinking and driving. The new amendments to the Criminal Code that came into effect on Dec. 18, are not only draconian but some of the provisions border on the absurd. While some in the media have addressed the fact these amendments infringe upon peoples’ rights, little has been said about whether or not these changes to the law will be effective.

Was Sun columnist paid off for pro-Trudeau opinion piece?

Trudeau opinion piece? It’s no secret Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has come under heavy criticism lately. His popularity began to tank when he went on his disastrous trip to India and, with his constant wardrobe changes, showed the entire world what a fool he is.

Distrust of Police Growing in Canada

Distrust of Police Growing in Canada No, it’s not the progressives. Many on the left are true cop-haters from the get go. A prime example of how the left detest police (unless they become victims of a crime and squeal like the cowards they are) occurred during the recent Ontario election campaign. Gurrant Singh, brother of federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh, was a star candidate for the NDP. It was revealed he once carried a sign in a demonstration that read “F**K the POLICE.” Ontario NDP leader Andrea Horwath saw nothing wrong with that. Neither did the rest of her radical caucus.
