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
Taken 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!

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.

Stephen Harper Says the NDP Refused to Support War on Hitler? ~ He Needs to Be Relieved of Duty ~ He is "Clearly" Insane ~

IN the last couple of days has Harper crossed the line. In his insane rant/answer to a question of urgent import on his plans for Afghanistan, He was asked directly if he would be extending the deployment past 2014. Watch the Video. He is losing it.

Yes, he said Hitler.  "We are ^NOT like the NDP we are not going to have an Ideological position .... regardless of circumstances". That was insane enough, as it was. No one is as ideologically driven as Stephen Harper. Then he went on the add, breathless and stammering.....:

"the NDP, ....the NDP, .....the leader the NDP ..  in 1939, did not even want to support War against Hitler! ...... "  

The New Democratic Party of Canada was hardly responsible for anything said in 1939,  being founded in 1961! **********************************************************************

History of the New Democratic Party of Canada

From Wikipedia, the free 

encyclopaedia         (DON'T wonder Off!   ~  OPEN THESE LINKS IN A SEPARATE TAB ! ttSm )

n 1956, after the birth of the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC) by a merger of two previous labour congresses, negotiations began between the CLC and the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) to bring about an alliance between organized labour and the political left in Canada. In 1958 a joint CCF-CLC committee, the National Committee for the New Party (NCNP), was formed to create a "new" social democratic political party, with ten members from each group. The NCNP spent the next three years laying down the foundations of the New Party. During this process, a large number of New Party Clubs were established to allow like-minded Canadians to join in its founding, and six representatives from New Party Clubs were added to the National Committee. In 1961, at the end of a five-day long Founding Convention which established its principles, policies and structures, the New Democratic Party was born and Tommy Douglas, the long-time CCF Premier of Saskatchewan, was elected its first leader.^[1] In 1960, before the NDP was founded, one candidate, Walter Pitman, won a by-election under the New Party banner.      **********************************************************************

Both the PM and John Baird (CON MP ) repeated the absurdity
on Friday the 27 April, 2012.  I am searching for the video.

Republican Interference? ~ The View from the Front Porch Looking North ~ This is Not just Voter Engagement

Has Harper Crossed the Line?

Julius Caesar Crossed the Rubicon 
on January 10th, 49 B.C.
which turned out to be One river too far.
So, why do modern men still cross lines
that Precipitate their Own Undoing?

Why is Noone talking about the Conservative's Relationship with Front Porch Strategies? 

To me, their tell-tale shared backward looking Ideology and all that they both promote sheds light on the very heart of the Robocon Scandals that include not only Tele Town Halls as well as  Robocalls, but a whole litany of other unreported activities. 

Front Porch Who? ~ Who Are They? 

There is lots of evidence to be gleaned from some of Front Porch Strategies own gloating rhetoric and many incidences of both unilateral and mutual congratulation and mindless glad-handing. These are obviously not just business relationships and just as obviously are rooted in the same dark Right wing Ideology that Most Canadians would not tolerate if it was revealed to them.

There is much more than an exchange of services happening here. There is much in this relationship that speaks of  a growing connection between the Harper Conservatives and the  Right, American Conservative Movement. A look at some of the Issues that Front Porch Strategies promotes shows a very close relationship to the American Religious Right and the big money of the Republicans and shows their passionate interest in dredging up a lot of issues that Canadians have long since felt were already settled. Many of them are issues that even Harper claims are already settled. According to Harper for instance there is no reason or plans to resurect the abortion debate. 


Here are just a few screen shots taken from the very public facebook Page of Front Porch Strategies. Just a few pictures to whet your appetite.

What is the Heartbeat Bill? ~ This from the Companies official Public Facebook page:

So what other issues do they promote? Well they are seemingly in lock-step with the Harper government's views on Israel vs. Palestine and openly lobby on Facebook for more support for Israel, and less consideration for Palestinians and are clearly promoting a very unbalanced approach. 

So? Who Do They Do Work For?

I am having a hard time to decide which clip of Newt Gingrich best typifies his incredibly dangerous and dismal Ideology. Should I raise his racist rants? Should I talk about his stupid take on taxes, his attacks on Muslims, or his outrageous treatment of both of his ex-wives? There are just so many clips, and so little time. Of course all of those topics are open game in america.  And again I want to ask you to ask yourself if you think that any company that so actively and passionately promotes nothing but Right wing Ideologues is not very likely to have more than just a business relationship with those who share that Right Wing Ideology?

At any rate I picked this clip because it shows how very practical he can be. This was just moments after his having lost the Republican Primary on Jan. 31st, 2012 in Florida: (Unofficial 100 percent) Mitt Romney 46.42 percent (775,014), Newt Gingrich 31.9 percent (533,117), Rick Santorum 13.3 percent (222,799), Ron Paul 7 percent (117,104), other 1.3 percent (21,613). ).

Beware the loser that will promise you the Moon! 

Wondering Why the Christian Alliance seems so familiar?

Harper looking None too Happy
to be photographed
outside of Alliance Church

"About two decades ago, Harper shifted away from the mainline Protestant denominations of his father and began finding a home in the Christian and Missionary Alliance Church, which has about 2.5 million members and 14,000 congregations worldwide. One fifth of its members live in North America, with Alberta a Canadian hotbed.

Since Harper moved in 2003 to Ottawa, he has been attending the capital city's Christian and Missionary Alliance Church, called East Gate, under the guidance of Pastor Bill Buitenwerf.

On the outside, RockPointe Church looks like a bunker. On the inside, it's a cavernous auditorium with no crosses, altar or pulpit. Instead it has a "stage" on which its many pastors champion conservative moral values while strolling like casual talk-show hosts, remarking on how "cool" things are, exclaiming "Right on!" and referring to adherents as "You guys."

Trask believes the more than 2,000 evangelical Protestants in his thriving church, as well as most of the 2.5 million evangelicals across the country, are enthusiastic supporters of his old friend, the prime minister. "Read more:

And yet Another Contradiction by Front Porch Strategies who have Categorically Denied that they even Make

Automated Calls!

A link to the FPS Video
So, do you still think that the Harper Government has no idea what went on with all the calls that they paid for during the election? 

They seem pretty damned well organized to me, even taking the time to thank the company that was kind enough to bring American attitudes and issues right to their door. Are you comfortable with front Porch Strategies importing their Pro-life and Anti-Palestine campaign here?

They do as you may remember, also promote Newt Gingrich, and Rick Santorum. 

    What Could Be Less Canadian Than That? 

I just wanted to add one final worry about this American Right wing spin machine. They have been saying for a week that they do NOT do Robocalls and only did Tele-Town-Halls on behalf of the Conservatives. As you have just seen that clearly is the case. Oddly they still deny having such capabilities, but they need to be careful what they say on publicly on Facebook.

Harper PERSONALLY Cheated in May 2011 Election! ~ We Knew It Then!

I have no idea why there is any doubt that the man at the Top of the "In and Out" and the obvious architect of the on going deconstruction and de-funding of Canadian democratic principles is getting even the shadow of doubt here. Are we that forgetful? Do we reset our minds every news cycle? Are we really as stupid as Harper thinks we are? 

Stick around and we'll jog yer memory! He even personally broke the Election Law on May 2, 2011at 1136 PM ET.
Have another look at evidence clearly showing Harper campaigning illegally on Election day 2011!

And he was talking about the fresh news that Osama was dead. If there is anything that reaches out to his kind of crowd, it is news that opponent has been slain. Revenge is a powerful Right Wing aphrodisiac. Note at the end that he gets schooled by a citizen after putting in a shameless plug at the end of the interview.

To me it is hard evidence. There is also much evidence that to the Cons, the concept of evidence is a hard one to get! We can't change them, but we do out-number them. We must concert ourselves to that end.

Seriously, Election Fraud is no harder to prove than all of the other fraud that they have so openly committed! Their entire tenure as the government has been fraught with dismal lapses of reason, ethics or direction. This blog is full of such information.

In an interview this morning with Bill Good on CKNW in Vancouver, Stephen Harper openly campaigned for the Conservative Party of Canada, asking listeners to "vote Conservative" in defiance of Elections Canada rules and regulations that state no campaigning may be done during the media blackout on election day.

During the interview Stephen Harper contravined the Elections Canada Act by stating that "It is certain that I will vote, and I encourage all other people to vote, and I encourage people to do the same as me and vote Conservative."

The host of the CKNW call in radio show, Bill Good, was quick to reply to listeners that "We encourage you to vote too, but we encourage you to vote whichever way you feel is appropriate."

Sections 480 to 499 of the Elections Canada Act detail prohibited activites by candidates during the imposed media blackout on election day in Canada.

THIS BLOG POST, like Harper's continued Contempt for Canada is a work still in progress. I am looking at the View from the FRONT Porch, Lol! I'll be back!

The Elections Canada investigation prompted by misleading calls to voters during the final days of last May's election is spreading, CBC News has learned.

The growing probe will involve interviews with some employees of a call centre based in Thunder Bay, Ont., operated by Responsive Marketing Group. The company was hired by the Conservatives to reach out to voters.

It was not immediately clear whether the interviews in Thunder Bay are directly connected with the continuing investigation by Elections Canada in Guelph.....

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.

Read more: 

 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

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.        Read more

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."

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.

2012 Canadian Election Crimes ~ Silly Conservatives ~ Three Strikes ~ You're Out!

Actually polling at 91% Yes ~ 7% NO

Have Conservatives Cheated in a Third Election?
Stay Tuned. 

Once again, the Conservatives have been caught in a scheme that they are going to be calling "Voter Suppression." I will be using harsher words. But it will all come down to the words we use.

OK, two hours into the story and yes, there he is, that familiar Reform riddle and odd artefact, Pierre Poilievre of "Administrative disputes" and Contempt hearing fame. They dug him out of hiding to give us his robotic polemic and tiresome mumbologue. Poilievre repeated today about eight times: "We ran an ethical Campaign and a clean campaign. We do not believe in 'voter suppression'. If we find out who did this they will face the full force of the Law. Bull kent Mr. Polyester.

This was not voter suppression any more than the "In and Out" was an administrative dispute. It spite of Poilievre's pitiful claims to frame that Election crime as such. He in fact said it almost a hundred times in Public and obviously many more in rehearsal.

Sorry Pierre, It was voter fraud, organized in 18, and now they are saying 27 ridings. Only 'known' opposition voters were called by an automatic dialling system. They were told that they were being called by elections Canada and that there was higher than normal turnout and that they had been re assigned to another polling station. That other station did not exist.

The Opposition Weighs In

Harassing or misleading automated campaign phone calls have been linked to a company (RackNine from Edmonton Alberta) that did campaign work for Conservative candidates, including Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

"The NDP is calling for a full-scale investigation into a dirty-tricks campaign apparently aimed at suppressing the Liberal vote during last spring's election campaign.

Interim Liberal Leader Bob Rae says the whole Conservative approach to politics should be scrutinized.

Interim NDP Leader Nycole Turmel says the tactics are a disgrace and those responsible must be held to account. "Cynical, old-style politics have become a trademark for the Conservatives," she said."

This was an obvious conspiracy of some sort and anyone who suggests that a scheme this big and this tightly focused could be the work of 'a few good men' is mistaken or lying.  and when the perpetrators are found, there will be criminal charges. I've been waiting since it happened on election day to give elections Canada the time it needed to have this issue surface.


Pierre, You were the most contemptuous of any of the posse during the Contempt Issue. Full force of the law, eh? You are not the only one who claims to think so. Let's start with this Pat Martin and John MacCallum reaction, and I'll be back!

Remember this Name!  RackNine! They made the Calls.

THE CONS HAVE FIRED SOMEONE! The Cons have run over someone with a BUS! One down and 102 to go! Lol! This will be the end of it from their side of the Story! But we know it took more than one to do this. He would not have had that much info to share. It goes much much farther up. But that will not stop them from saying "there we fixed it."

OTTAWA — "Different Parliament Hill media sources are reporting that a Guelph man has left his job with the Conservative Party of Canada in connection with robo-dialling phone mischief in the last election.

The Globe and Mail reported Friday that Michael Sona, a Conservative parliamentary staffer who worked on the federal election campaign in Guelph, resigned Thursday evening from his position as Conservative MP Eve Adams' assistant. The Huffington Post, an online new service, asserted Sona was fired but offered no confirmation of that from the party.

Sona, 23, was the communications director for Guelph Conservative candidate Marty Burke during last year’s federal election campaign. Attempts to reach Sona, Adams, or Burke for comment Friday have not led to any comment from them.

News of Sona’s alleged break from his job with Adams comes days after a Tory robocall scandal erupted. There is no public evidence Sona had any link to the matter,which is being investigated by Elections Canada."

It's like saying, We caught that guy.... "Anonymous".

This was not done by a single man it was done by a huge dedicated organization, with a plan and a budget, but if Rack9 Co-operates, any of the little myths that the Cons like to spread, like "calling Election fraud, Voter Suppression, will be laid bare. Stay tuned.
