Yesterday Trudeau spoke on the allegations by Judy Wilson-Reyboud.  Rather than helping, he did exactly what one should not do when something like this happens.  Instead of accepting responsibility and promising it won't happen again, he just makes excuses.  This comes across as someone who is arrogant and out of touch.  People don't expect politicians… Continue reading Lavscam and Trudeau’s speech

Lavscam Today some explosive testimony was given at committee by Jody Wilson-Reyboud.  This comes on the heels of Gerald Butt's resignation.  While too early to say the full fallout, I cannot see it as being good for the Liberals.  Will it be fatal or not, tough to say.  I am glad Gerald Butts is gone… Continue reading Lavscam, by-elections and moderate conservatism

Recently newcomer Alexandria Oscario-Cortez has gotten a lot of attention for her staunchly left wing ideals and some even think she will bring about a socialist political revolution in the United States.  For one her ideas are pie in the sky and the idea that a normally centre-right country will go for someone as left wing… Continue reading AOC’s leftist promises and JWR’s resignation from Cabinet

BC Speculation Tax Provincial NDP has imposed everyone living in a designated area (which is most of the province population wise) fill out of a form annually to show their home is not empty for speculation.  While this is well intentioned, I believe it is horribly implemented and should be scrapped.  Many in expensive homes… Continue reading Quick Political Updates

To say 2018 didn't see some major political events both here and abroad would be an understatement.  Here in Canada we had three provincial elections and all three resulted in a small c conservative party forming government.  For conservatives, this was a great year as at the beginning of the year, only two provinces with… Continue reading A look back in 2018 in Politics

I haven't written much on the PR referendum other than briefly mentioned I am opposed to it.  Very happy to see it got defeated so decisively.  Hopefully this puts the issue to rest and we can focus on other more important issues.  I think as Chretien pointed out, maybe some university professors who can never… Continue reading BC defeats PR

In my previous post on gun control, I discussed the changes that I think need to be made in Canada.  This section will be about why I think these changes need to be made, and my next post will primarily be a FAQ to debunk many of the myths being spread by the pro-gun lobby.… Continue reading Why We need Tougher Gun Laws: Part II
