Alright, I have the solution as to who to pick for GG. It’s easy. Let the Canadian People decide, that is let the Canadian people elect the next Governor General!! If we can do it, hopefully one day for the Senate, why the hell can’t we do it for the position of GG???
Elect the next GG!!

Extramarital sex fuels earthquakes, warns Iran cleric
Amazing how plain dumb some people are....
A SENIOR Iranian cleric has claimed that dolled-up women incite extramarital sex, causing more earthquakes in Iran, a country that straddles several fault lines, newspapers reported today.
"Many women who dress inappropriately ... cause youths to go astray, taint their chastity and incite extramarital sex in society, which increases earthquakes," Ayatollah Kazem Sedighi told worshippers at overnight prayers in Tehran.
"Calamities are the result of people's deeds," he was quoted as saying by reformist Aftab-e Yazd newspaper.
"We have no way but conform to Islam to ward off dangers."

Rahim & Helena
Am I the only person who doesn’t give a shit about Rahim Jaffer and Helena Guergis? He isn’t even an MP anymore, hasn’t been in a long while, whatever he has done as a private citizen, who friggn cares? If he used his wife’s car and driver for a personal errand? So what. Please provide me proof that no LPC, BQ or NDP member with a car at their disposal in the last ten years hasn’t done that?? Make him cough up the $50 and get over it.
As for Helena? Besides a rant at an airport? Which happens everyday by someone, again who cares??
Look if they were awarding government contracts, then accepting money back from these people as donations, I’d have an issue with it.
If this is the worst the CPC government has come to in 4+ years, I think it’s a damn good government!!

The USA can lock you up if you're an atheist
So in the good ol US of A, the state can lock you up for not believing in god. Interesting. Gotta be something seriously wrong with this shit.
http://www.redding.com/news/2010/apr/10/in-america-we-dont-lock-up-atheists/
Newspapers have a natural love for the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment, which protects freedom of the press.
Even before the drafters of the Bill of Rights mentioned that key American principle, though, first in the First came the prohibition on establishing a religion. If that means anything, it means that the government cannot impose religious beliefs on citizens and lock them up if they don’t profess belief.
You don’t have to be an atheist or a drug user, then, to appreciate the importance to our fundamental American liberties of the legal dispute over whether a Redding parolee should have been sent to prison for refusing to participate in a 12-step program as part of court-mandated drug treatment.
The 12 Steps of AA
1: We admitted we were powerless over alcohol--that our lives had become unmanageable.
2: Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
3: Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
4: Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
5: Admitted to God, to ourselves and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
6: Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
7: Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
8: Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
9: Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
10: Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
11: Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
12: Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

Remembering Katyn, 70 years later
I never thought I would find anything positive to say about Putin, but good for him doing this.
The Polish prime minister will attend Wednesday's ceremony in Russia marking the 70th anniversary of the Katyn massacre of Poles by Soviet forces. It is an unprecedented step, and one which could herald a new era in strained relations between Poland and Russia, says the BBC's Adam Easton in Warsaw.

Forgotten war hero
I'm a serious Canadian nationalist, I read tonnes of Canadian history books and articles, and I try to keep up with other world history stuff. I have always considered myself knowledgeable about history in general, but in reading a book the other day i came upon something, much to my shame had forgotten, the story of Francis Pegahmagabow.
We in Canada tend to be very nonchalant when it comes to our war heros. As I'm getting older this is starting to bother me more and more. In the UK in the USA and in many other countries this man would be a national hero, here? Ask around and I doubt 1 in 500 could guess who he was. Yet it is because of people like him we have our freedoms.
Just providing a small rant and a bit of Canadian and first world war history to the community.
Corporal Francis Pegahmagabow, MM and two bars, (March 9, 1891 – August 5, 1952) was the aboriginal soldier most highly decorated for bravery in Canadian military history and the most effective sniper of World War I. Three times awarded the Military Medal and seriously wounded, he was an expert marksman and scout, credited with killing up to 378 Germans and capturing 300 more. Later in life, he served as chief and a councillor for his band, and as an activist and leader in several First Nations organizations. He corresponded with and met other noted aboriginal figures including Fred Loft, Jules Sioui, Andrew Paull and John Tootoosis.

Easter
I am an atheist, but as a libertarian I will never allow anyone to tell anyone else what they are allowed to believe.
That being said, if you celebrate Easter, I sincerely wish you and your family a Happy Easter.

Michael Coren is an idiot
Michael are you kidding me?? The nonsense you've thrown out has been dismissed by far greater minds then you or I. Hitler referenced god and Jesus many times, but he was a vegetarian, that’s really where all his evil came from. Not eating meat makes you fucking nuts! Didn't you know that?? His spoiled up bringing after his father died, not to mention the strictness of his life while his father lived, had nothing to do with it his fanatical ideas.
Our free will?? What a cope out.
Science at least has evidence to prove itself.
Come on Michael, you can do better then that!!
Have a Happy chocolate bunny day; while you’re praying to your invisible man in the sky, I shall be eating a chocolate bunny on your behalf.

Helena and the LPC
Are you kidding me?
I like Helena, I think she has the potential to be a great minister, though she may have to head out to the pasture for a while.
It is one of the most stupid thing I have ever read from the Liberal party, and I've read tonnes of stupid stuff from them.
How the hell could she possibly know that staffers sent in letters praising her? She's an MP, and a Cabinet minister, can someone please tell me how she could possibly know everything her employees, and political volunteers are doing?
I've know people from all parties, we all send letters in without telling people. Why? because its none of their friggn business. I see letters in the local papers by people I know work for the LPC, the NDP and the CPC, why would anyone of us tell the MP or Cabinet Minister taht we are doing it??

Minister Guergis must step down
Published on March 31, 2010
OTTAWA – Liberals today called for Minister of State for Status of Women Helena Guergis to step down from Cabinet following a series of letters that appear to come from average citizens when in fact they were written by her staffers and Conservative friends.
“It is simply not credible that this minister did not know that her assistant, her former staff, her former riding association president and even her staffer’s mother were sending these letters to media,” said Liberal MP Wayne Easter.

Free speach in the UK finally wins!!
This poor guy has been fighting with the UK chiro group for a few years now, it nice to see a victory for the good guys!
If you make a claim, like chiro can cure childhood asthma or colic, back it up with scientific research/evidence/proof, otherwise it is just an opinion.
Sadly years ago I had some "faith" in chiro, now? No chance.
