And The Kids Are Part Of The OCCUPY Movement...

Obama Priority?

Walkom: Teacher ultimatum marks onset of war on public workers
Fri Mar 2 2012
With Ontario's demand for a teacher wage freeze, the long-expected attack on public sector workers is finally kicking off. (7)
,,,this a demand from Premier Dad whose track record for leadership is well knoewn.

There Are Days When Christie Is A Tonic...

Afghan protests, cruise ships, jumpsuits and other pressing matters
Christie Blatchford: Is anyone else growing just a tad weary of Afghanistan and Afghans and all those who continue to carry on about the accidental burning of Korans?
...and then we have the liberals and ndp:
Robocalls scandal is bad, but politicians are being a little hypothetical
Chris Selley: Trying to trick someone into not voting is indeed more offensive than trying to trick him into voting for the other guy. The law, however, seems not to make any distinction
Scott Stinson: Robocalls scandal sinks Question Period debate to new lows
...you really have to ask yourself if there is even a smigden of truth do those who were swayed really deserve "the right" to vote? I know we allow criminals in prison to vote and I have to wonder whether this same right is extended to those in mental instituations? The success of the ndp in quebec might say yes!

Be Thankful Stephen...You Are Not Obama...

...but you still have a job to do and robovotes is not a priority. Can't you revoke the parking privileges of the opposition or even more severe cancel their cafeteria privileges and get on with running the country.

Let's Review The Results Of The Last Election...

...how many robo votes did the conservatives gain if any? Are there not more important issues that the denizens of parliament should be dealing with...deficit, jobs, crime, infra-structure, etc. etc. etc.

Time to rethink the industry: taxis are part of sustainable public transit
By Adam Giambrone
Chances are if you’re one of thousands of locals who rely on taxis as a way around the private car, you found it tough hailing a lift Monday morning, February 27. That’s because many cabbies, placards in hand, were circling City Hall to draw attention to the urgent need for reform and to the city’s ongoing Taxicab Industry Review.
Who seemed to have spent most of his time with his hand on his pecker rather than on the helm of the TTC!

Premier Mom Trying To Prom ote Eating Gruel...

...is like eating a filet mignon.

You have to be kidding me.
“Through consolidation, we should be able to save hundreds of millions of dollars. We’re not at a point where we have an exact number yet, of course.” - Economic Development Minister Brad Duguid
I wonder how Mr. McGuinty can blame the petro-dollar for Ontario's state of affairs when his own minister doesn't really know where the monies are going?

Transit "EXPERTS" Hijack Silly Hall...

Stintz's motley crew: Levy
City transit horror show
While Mayor Rob Ford now says there’s no way he’ll revive David Miller’s vehicle registration tax (VRT) to pay for his subway plan, what he has been suggesting is scary enough.
Definition Of Expert: "Someone who knows 101 ways to have sex but is abhorrent to the opposite/same sex!"

Mayor Rob Ford promises no new taxes to help fund Sheppard subway
After floating potential revenue tools to help extend the line, Ford declared Thursday: “There will not be any new taxes.” (43)

It seems like it wasn't electrical cable being pulled from Queens Park to Silly Hall ...was it possibly the puppet master's puppet string!

Will Second Nation individuals accept guilt for the travesties of their ancestors on the real First Nation settlers?

Explaining Basic Politics...

Too Little Too Late...

Rob should have started cleaning house on Day 1 by firing, or at least putting on notice, beauracracts at Toronto Silly Hall...MY WAY OR THE HIGHWAY!

Protests From The Pulpit, Marches, Street Memorials...

Christie Blatchford: Contrast between shooting victim and trial witnesses almost too much to bear
...are an insult to Kenneth Mark and his memory and the judicial system seems to be a party to this breakdown in law and order in the name of political correctness.

Those Who Voted For Change (AT LEAST TWICE)...

No gratitude for Alberta's largesse
For almost a decade, Sun Media editorialists in Ontario have been banging their heads against the wall in their attempts to convince voters in their province, and the rest of the country, that Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty is an idiot.

...should be held accountable.

You have to be kidding me.
