Pierre Poilievre Defiles Canadian Democracy

-

Jagmeet Singh, NDP federal leader voted with Conservative Party 
and Bloc Quebecois to force David Johnston to step down.

Donald Trump did not accept defeat so he claimed his election was stolen. Pierre Poilievre, Canada’s Conservative Party leader is making the same accusation. His goal is to be Canada’s Prime Minister prematurely, without waiting for the next federal election. How?

1. The Conservative Party is accusing China of interfering in Canada’s federal elections, the Party lost.

2. Pierre Poilievre demanded a public inquiry into the matter. Prime Minister Trudeau obliged and hired David Johnston as special rapporteur to investigate.

3. He did the job and tabled a report recommending  there should be no public inquiry.

4. Pierre Poilievre and other opposition parties do not like Johnston’s findings. They voted in parliament that he should be removed. Very childish. The only recommendation they want is a public inquiry.

5. David Johnston finally succumbed to pressure and resigned on 9 June.

Pierre Poilievre’s and Trump’s Lies

It is despicable that Poilievre admires Donald Trump so much, he would emulate something that sullied America’s reputation as the bastion of democracy. Johnston has resigned, but his recommendations stand. Poilievre will reject them of course, because of his next course of action.

6. The only recommendation Poilievre will accept is that China interfered in the last election causing the Conservative Party to lose. Like Trump, the only true result is if he wins.

7. Poilievre will then use taxpayers’ money to conduct the public inquiry. He will accept only one outcome. Which is? China interfered in the last election causing his Party to lose.

8. The NDP and Bloc Quebecois will vote with him to nullify Trudeau’s emaciated win in the last election and force a new election.

9. Because he thinks he’s god, he will win that election.

Conclusion: Canadians do not want a public inquiry because there was no interference. Doing what Trump did to American voters, indirectly says Canadian voters are stupid, imbeciles to the core. They don’t know what they are doing when they are in that voting booth.  Conservative Party voters should be concerned. Do they want a leader whose thinking is linear, for himself only, at the detriment of the party?

Elections And Political Bullies

-

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

-

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

Einstein Passengers

Being a passenger is very stressful.   You must listen to the owner of the car, nod and grumble yes to everything he says because you don’t want to piss him off. Two things can happen if you disagree with the driver: he can lose concentration and you all end up in a mash-up accident or stop the car and ask you to get out.   That is the driver’s prerogative.   You must listen to me if you are a passenger in my car.   Let’s flip the script for a minute and sympathise with the driver if she has a passenger who is more intelligent than Albert Einstein. He talks non-stop.   It is all about himself, how right he is, how good he is, how stupid his boss is. Einstein is also a driving instructor.   “Careful.   Look at that guy.   Is he crazy or something? ” says Einstein. Einstein is the unofficial pilot.   He presses imaginary brakes in the passenger seat when the driver stops abruptly for a guy who is texting on his bicycle. A certain Einstein took it to another level.   S
