Keystone decision proves Obama is anti-American and anti-West

January 22, 2012 Politics

Venezuela is led by a murderous, despotic Marxist who is bosom buddies with one of the world’s most dangerous terrorists, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a physical midget who seeks to build a nuclear bomb for the sole purpose of blasting Israel off the map.

Name one bad thing oil sands are NOT responsible for

January 20, 2012 Politics

Is it any wonder that (pro-leftist) mainstream media have become the joke they are? Every day, they give a platform to some of the worst nutters the left can produce, and their insane and morbid thoughts are treated with the kind of reverence usually reserved for the Bible or similar religious icons.

Fair compensation for Calgary City Council?

January 19, 2012 Politics

The pay and perks package for Calgary’s mayor comes in at a total amount of $256,938. That’s nothing to sneeze at, especially for a guy who spends so much time just admiring himself. It looks even more generous when one compares it to the salary of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, who’s in charge of the second [...]

Northern Gateway: Suzuki doesn’t get it.

January 14, 2012 Business

David Suzuki, who last time I checked isn’t even qualified to expound on such issues, is off on one of his wild (and demented?) tangents about the Northern Gateway pipeline. “Screw the environment. The pipeline will hurt our economy,” he rants.

Northern Gateway: Canada is a sovereign country – time to teach the world a hard lesson!

January 10, 2012 Business

I don’t hold out much hope that the Keystone pipeline from Alberta to the US will ever be approved. President Barack Obama has already put it on ice once, to appease his liberal grassroots, and he will likely axe the whole thing in coming weeks or months. For Obama is by the man, of the [...]

Weather/climate science … no predictive value at all

January 6, 2012 Science & Technology

This is just delicious beyond belief. Several months ago, the newspapers were filled with dire warnings about Western Canada being hit by the harshest, most brutal and coldest winter ever. The scientists who made that prediction based it on the effects of the well-established El Niño effect. By now, Albertans should have been killed off [...]

Let’s be clear: many celebs are just airheads

January 5, 2012 Arts & Entertainment

On his TV show, Charles Adler once asked me why some public figures felt the need to appear “politically correct” when they didn’t really subscribe to that nonsense. To which I replied: Because many of those in the public limelight – politicians, actors, and even public servants like prosecutors – want to be liked, and [...]

Redford, like all liberals, dream big … at great cost to taxpayers

December 30, 2011 Politics

Liberals like to dream big. The bigger, the better. The only trouble is that those dreams invariably end up costing taxpayers dearly – without the dreams ever getting realized!

Premier Mom – a left-winger’s wet dream come true

December 23, 2011 Politics

Too bad they’re already married, because these two lefties should really shack up together: Ontario premier Dalton McGuinty and Alberta premier Alison Redford. McGuinty has come to be known as “Premier Dad” over the years, and now Canada also has a female counterpart, with Redford quickly proving that she’s up to the job of “Premier [...]

Is the West in? Out? On Top? Nowhere to be found?

December 22, 2011 Politics

There once was a time when Canada’s western provinces (the “West”) wanted “in”. This was in reference to a succession of mostly Liberal governments in Ottawa that never bothered about anything west of Ontario. The only time the West mattered was when Ottawa tried to raid the former’s treasuries.
