Labrador ~ Here's Your Chance to Vote Peter Penash-Away


Penashue thought that "The Coast was Clear!"
So he stole this riding!

This time the 'Coast' must be clear
that they Won't be
T
aken for Granted!

As I was perusing Peter Penashue's Facebook Page,I noticed something that fits right in with the Opposition's narrative on the now disgraced (former) MP and (former) Minister of Intergovernmental Affairs history of service. The Page contains hundreds of photographs  posted in 2011, hundreds. The odd part is that he stopped posting them on April, 30th, 2011 just two days short of the last federal election. What's so odd about that, you ask?


Well! Take a Closer Look
at Peter's Photo Stream and on that very page you will see that there were only two photographs posted in 2012, and both of them were PMO approved photo-ops of spending announcements with plenty of human props. And that is not hundreds is it now. And moving on to 2013, the first photo graphs were , not posted till January 28th, 2013. And this my friends, was that he was informed that he was under investigation by election Canada, and that the investigative had concluded that he grossly exceeded the spending limits for the 2011 campaign.  Election Canada gave him a deadline to explain the roughly $48,000.oo that he had no right to spend. This was several weeks before he resigned as a Minister and MP and left the  caucus of the Conservative Party of Canada.


And this is Quite Amusing ~ Don't you think! 

It has been deleted from his Facebook Page!

Carefully compare the two links
to see that they are identical

Not Surprisingly the Document to which it links has been Deleted! Reg Bowers has been! 



Listen to Reg Bowers | Unedited

Reg Bowers, the "inexperienced volunteer" former Conservative minister Peter Penashue blamed for "ineligible donations" made to his 2011 federal election campaign, says he "unintentionally" accepted at least one corporate donation, which is illegal under Canadian law.




Again, Not Surprisingly 
a link that lead to this Document appeared 
on his Facebook page on March 15th 2013


That fine print at the bottom says:
Authorized by the Official Agent. Lol!




Wow!  It's still there on Facebook 
click to comment!His Original 2011 Campaign Video  
I'd better see if I can copy it
 before it goes the away.


Rex Murphy isn't all that Impressed!


Peter is back on the Campaign Trail and I think he is in way over his head!

Stephen Harper Hates The Canadian Charter of Rights of Freedoms

Stephen Harper's Regime has been Fighting the
T
he Charter of Rights of Freedoms,

since the first days he was elected prime minister.




Youth who get It! 

Harper Would Made Mince Meat Out of the Charter.
Bob Rae on the 30 Anniversary of 
The Charter of Rights of Freedoms
Harper Tells You Exactly What He Thinks About You!


Reached from Chile Stephen Harper a Statement!

"In terms of this as an anniversary, I think it's an interesting and important step, but I would point out that the Charter remains inextricably linked to the patriation of the Constitution and the divisions around that matter, which as you know are still very real in some parts of the country," Harper said.

Harper had also been asked to comment on perceived problems with the application of the Charter in the courts, but he said he didn't want to wade into that issue.

But many Conservatives have criticized the Charter, saying some have taken advantage of the document to drag out court cases. There's also a view that it has allowed judges to make laws rather than parliamentarians."

Harper dismissively labelled it Divisive. He had no proof of it, but he is always pulling this shit (Kent). Reminiscent of the Long Form Census which they vilified with the use of hearsay, and an number unsubstantiated complaints!

Bring on the Tipping Point ~ Declare Harper Land a Failed State ~ The Big Giant head is Top Heavy ~ All Together Now...... Push!



Harper's balanced approach
 Have we Finally Reached 
the Tipping Point?  
Will we finally take Harper by the short and curlies and throw him to the curb? God knows we have had our opportunities. Some of us thought his infamous speech in 1997 would have made him Disappear. Some thought that the fact that he wanted to take us headlong into the quagmire of Iraq to find those Weapons of mass destruction, might have done it. He even plagiarized a Speech made by John Howard, then the Australian Prime Minister which many say was actually written in Washington.



Failing to wake up then, we have continued to ignore countless instances of abuse of privilege, power, bad legislation, constant campaigning and incompetent and backward governance by this so-called leader and his so-called "Harper Government." Here are a few more of those instances, none of which have sufficiently aroused a sense of obligation on the part of Canadians to protect themselves from abuse. 


This is a copy of a comment that I made way back in 2004, it was reposted then by a stranger on another site,  and which still floats around the web these years later. I searched and found it quite easily again today.  


I will put it up here as an example of the current length of that list. Keep in mind that this one is over three years old and that at the time I wrote it right off the Top of My Head. One can only imagine how long such a list must necessarily be today. This is Pre-Colvin, Pre-Toews, Pre-gazebo, ....... And three and  half  years before RackNine, Robocalls, and yet another incidence of Election rigging.

Three and a half years ago this was ONLY a partial list!
And Today, we are really no closer to getting rid of the beast, although some are starting to stir. We must remain vigilant, we must continue to apply pressure to the Harper Government.

Guelph Ontario, May 02, 2011
OTTAWA  Citizen ~ An Elections Canada investigation into black ops "robocalls" was focused on a Conservative party campaign in Guelph, Ont., documents obtained by Postmedia News and the Ottawa Citizen show.
A court order executed on an Edmonton call centre in November specifically refers to records related to the campaign of Conservative candidate Marty Burke in Guelph, where many voters reported receiving pre-recorded messages that falsely claimed their polling stations had moved.

 All too Plausible to think the Conservatives are Involved in the Robocall Scandal
Andrew Coyne.  "We do not know whether the calls were made by members of the Conservative party. We do not know whether any Conservative authorized them, or even knew about them. We do not know whether anyone was prevented from voting, or had their vote changed, as a result, nor do we know whether the results of any riding were affected.
But my God, what we know is disturbing enough. There were not a few calls: there were thousands. They did not occur in one or two ridings: there were at least 18 of them, scattered across the country. In all but one the race was viewed as being between a Conservative and a Liberal, and in every one the calls were made to Liberal supporters. (The NDP now claims to have found nine ridings in which its own supporters received similar calls. These remain to be verified.) In some cases voters were given false information on where to vote by someone pretending to represent Elections Canada. In others, they were annoyed or insulted by calls purporting to come from the Liberal party." Read more

 Opposition leaders vow to maintain pressure on Tories over alleged dirty tricks
TORONTO - "The opposition politicians were out in force Saturday fanning the flames created by the election robocall scandal, while the Conservatives offered up their own victim of dirty tricks, an MP who won his seat in a landslide.
Peterborough MP Dean Del Mastro, who is Prime Minister Stephen Harper's parliamentary secretary, issued a statement Saturday saying his supporters were targeted by deceitful callers in the lead-up to the May election." Read more

Rae claims 'robocalls' contributed to Liberal candidates' defeat

Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae claims reports of "robocalls" and voter suppression tactics contributed to the defeat of Liberal candidates in at least 27 ridings during the last federal election.

These tactics were the equivalent of "stuffing a ballot box," Rae said at a news conference in the riding of Toronto-Danforth on Saturday.

Rae called on "the prime minister, any Conservative MP, candidate or party official" who has any knowledge of these reports to come forward and turn the information over to the RCMP or Elections Canada for investigation.

According to Rae, these reports are part of a wider misinformation campaign by the Conservatives and he is calling on Parliament to hold an emergency debate on Monday.

Bob Rae ~ Terry Milewski ~ Ridings reach 34
MY TAKE:
Listen to Pierre Poilievre especially closely here. They always dig him up when this sort of Robo- Con message is needed. There is no one in Canada better able to lie stone faced to the camera.  During the Contempt hearings and all through the In and out scheme, Poilievre repeated some hundreds of times that it was an "Administrative dispute" and we all know that it was much much more than that.

So listen here carefully and remember this statement by Pierre Poilievre, it will not be the last time that you hear it.
"It is clear that uh, Voter suppression is completely unacceptable, uh, The Conservative party of Canada ran an Ethical and clean campaign and uh, the reality .... the reality is, uh, that uh, we we are never Condone this kind of activity and frankly if anyone has engaged in it and that is proven they should face the full force of the Law."

~ Robocon Defence Drone ~


Suddenly, Dean Del Mastro ~ Con MP/Car-salesman suddenly wakes up from 9 month snooze and remembers rather vaguely that he too was a victim of dirty tricks.

Canada's Liberals Vow to Legalize Pot ~ Bob Rae Weighs In

"Let's Face Up to it Canada! 

The War on Drugs Has Been a Complete Bust" 
~ Bob Rae


The Liberal Party of Canada has finally resolved to legalize pot.

Huffington Post Canada ~ Participate in Poll or Read More
Over seventy-seven per cent of delegates at the Liberals' biennial convention in Ottawa in a vote that can only be described as overwhelming, told their party's leadership Sunday morning that they want a future Liberal government to legalize marijuana. That number is fairly consistent with any poll taken anywhere in Canada. Canadians are tired of the war on drugs and many are worried about Bill C-10 now part of the Harper Government's War on Pragmatism.

Their interim leader Bob Rae acknowledged the war on drugs hasn’t worked, but told reporters the party's caucus would have to study the implications of the resolution.

"Frankly, the status quo doesn't work and that's what needs to change,” Rae said. “The Liberal party is saying that the current laws do not work and that we need a new direction.”

Liberal Marijuana

“It’s now up to us to take that resolution and see exactly what it will mean in terms of policy, because there are some practical questions that we have to look at,” Rae added, saying in French that one such issue would be how to control the supply of legalized pot.

Rae insisted he was completely at ease defending the principles of the resolution and that he would work with the membership on the issue in the months and years ahead as the party drafts its next election platform.

“I accept that it is the will of the party that was expressed today and we will continue to work together,” ~ Rae 


And in his Closing Remarks, he added:
"Now that we have decided to legalize Marijuana,


We Will Be Even Happier!"

I am lucky enough to have met Bob Rae in person, and had a quiet moment or two with him during the last Election Campaign in Moncton N.B. and I have to admit that at that meeting, the subjects of Crime, Harper's War on Pragmatism, and the War on Drugs all came up. I told him that I was also against Harper's War on Canada. I told him that I wanted to launch a "War on Stupid", and We had a Great laugh!


You see, he has a wonderful sense of humour and besides, he already knew that I had the Government of Harper Land squarely in my sights. I mean seriously, They mess up almost every day and  had already seen the Back of that nice shirt! Lol!

Do You Need a Little More Convincing?


Even this Conservative American Judge has Figured it Out.



Surprise! 
 
A Majority of Canadians Agree!


"The prohibition and a 40-year-long “War on Drugs” have led to pot being more widely accessible, taxpayers considerably poorer, gangs richer and thousands upon thousands of otherwise law-abiding citizens branded “criminal.”
Another 50,000 or so Canadians are busted every year for possession; throw in 20,000 or so traffickers and producers and this so-called war is costing us as much as $400 million annually in law enforcement, court and corrections.


Bearing in mind that a million dollars a year buys roughly 12 new cops, 14 teachers or public health nurses, ask yourself: Couldn’t all that money be better spent? "         ~ READ MORE:
