What does Martin think?
Francie Ducros uses the ‘M’ word. Carolyn Parrish uses the ‘B’ word. Give the Liberals enough time and soon they will use every letter in the alphabet. Carolyn Parrish supports Paul Martin. Are we to assume that Mr. Martin and Ms. Parrish’s ilk are of the same mind when it comes to hating the Americans? […]

American won’t be summering in Canada
As an American who has always had a warm feeling for Canada and Canadians, having spent parts of six of the last eight summers in Canada, I am shocked at the anti-American attitudes within Canada. When Canadian officials and staff call Americans the names of recent, I have to revise my opinion of Canada. My […]
Martin must shoulder some blame
Paul Martin has been wandering around Canada for the past year, like some latter day Moses, telling how he will lead us to the Promised Land. He proclaims he brought fiscal stability to Canada and balanced the federal budget. Never mentioned is how: *By raising $45-billion from the workers of Canada and their employers through […]
What does Martin think?
While there has been widespread coverage of Liberal MP Carolyn Parrish’s ignorant anti-American outburst – part of a shameful crescendo of similar insults being hurled at our neighbours by Liberals – there has been one glaring oversight. To wit: what does Prime-Minister-in-waiting Paul Martin think of all this? Not to mention Sheila Copps and John […]
Senior bureaucrat urges changes to voting system: ‘There is a sense of fatigue about our democratic institutions’: Des Rosiers
OTTAWA–If the government is really serious about restoring faith in the political system, it should seriously consider fixing the distorted way politicians are elected to the House of Commons, says a senior federal official who’s spearheaded a major review of the country’s winner-take-all electoral system. The government is currently in the midst of reforming political […]
Martin must make a choice
Paul Martin wants to keep his company and run Canada. I think that anyone who had respect for Canada would be willing to consider running Canada to be his or her full-time job. Whether or not Mr. Martin can be trusted to prioritize Canada over his business is irrelevant. Perception is extremely important for those […]
Herb-al remedies…
Now that Natural Resources Minister Herb Dhaliwal has officially taken himself out of the running for the Liberal leadership, as anticipated here last week, the question is, who will the government’s B.C. political lieutenant back against Paul Martin? He will get involved somehow – the taking over of his riding executive by Martinites last year […]
Layton hires acting chief of staff Maureen Prebinski/Jean-Francois Thibault will join Industry Minister as new EA
OTTAWA–A former Hill staffer will run as the NDP’s candidate from the riding of Ottawa Centre in the upcoming provincial election in Ontario expected to take place in April or May of this year. Jeff Atkinson, 35, won the NDP nomination unopposed last month. A native of Duart, Ont., Mr. Atkinson worked on the Hill […]
Parrish’s lack of upbringing
Regarding Canadian Liberal MP Carolyn Parrish’s comments last week, “Damn Americans. Hate those bastards.” I am one of those bastards south of the border. I hope you will have the decency not to call on us to save your sorry behind if Canada is ever in need of a military defence. You are too cheap […]
