The Globe and Mail, Canada’s ’newspaper of record’ is making a campaign for the country’s political elite to once again defy public sentiment and extend the Canadian Armed Forces’ intervention in Afghanistan beyond the current deadline of December 2011".

CANADA’S PRINCE OF DARKNESS ASSUMES LEADERSHIP OF THE LIBERAL PARTY
John Chuckman
Since leaving the shaded groves of Harvard a few years ago, seeking as his second career the running of a country, Michael Ignatieff has been a prominent politician in Canada . He didn’t just pack his bags and come home – he grew up in Canada – he had the encouragement of some Liberal Party officials as a possible future leader. While it’s true that the Liberals needed to do (…) -
Canada’s ’socialist’ NDP supports US Terror War in Afghanistan
11 December 2008 par (Open-Publishing)
Canada’s New Democratic Party has abandoned it’s nominally anti-war stance on Afghanistan. The NDP has recently formed a coalition with the opposition pro-war Liberal Party in an attempt to oust the ruling Conservatives.
This abandonment of a principled anti-war position by a "left" party has been barely reported by the always subservient mainstream corporate media in Canada. It is a shocking and appalling position for a social democratic party to take and should not go unnoticed or (…) -
The agenda that threatens Canada: Two telltale speeches by Stephen Harper
5 December 2008 par (Open-Publishing)
I have written, at length, about Harper and his Conservatives in the past so I will refrain from regurgitating that information. For those interested, the articles are available at the end of this post .

The issue of Indian Residential Schools and genocide is so important that it’s colonization by doubtful and dubious elements is perhaps the most dangerous threat to exposure and decolonization.

Canadian financial swindle is just as absurd as that of the US: Canadian and US Bank Bailouts Equivalent
17 November 2008 par (Open-Publishing)
Let’s do some simple mathematics to put things into perspective.
The United States has a population of 303,824,640 and the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, commonly referred to as the $700 billion bailout of the US financial system, means that approximately $2,304 per capita will be donated to banking institutions, or should I say, be given to private banks so that they can maintain their stranglehold on citizens of the United States.
Canada has a population of 33,212,696 (…) -

Harper - Sarkozy
Why we Must Stop Stephen Harper and the Conservatives:
In the year 2000, the United States held their most important elections since their creation, and now it’s our turn. In four short years the Bush administration bankrupted the United States and started two major (…)
