CANADA DAY SHOULD BE MORE THAN...
* A day at the beach
* Rib Fest
* Chin Picnic
* Dyke and pride Parades
Please stand as you read this …
O Canada: A love letter set to familiar music
CANADA DAY
Sean Kilpatrick,The Canadian Press
A Canadian flag is waved on Parliament Hill in Ottawa
O Canada: I am so glad we met. I have loved you and be
en faithful to you for just over 50 years. I used to think everything was perfect about you but now, sadly, I'm having some doubts.
Our home: If you're lucky enough to have one. O Canada, why don't you have a National Housing Strategy like all the other G8 countries? You must know that on any given night here, 30,000 people have nowhere to lay their heads.
And native land: The land that belongs to First Nations people. O Canada, why do you treat the real natives of your great land with such disdain, leaving half of all aboriginal children living in poverty and nearly half of their reserves without clean water?
True patriot love: Ah, love. Here's where you really shine, O Canada! You have allowed true love to become married love for gay and lesbian people since 2005. Your influence on the U.S. of A on this issue has been profound. Last Wednesday, the Defense of Marriage Act was overturned because of the gumption of two American lesbians who were actually married here by our first ever gay judge, Harvey Brownstone!
The sun sets on Lake Huron like no place in the world, and the mountains and the lakes have held us spellbound since even before your birth …
In all our sons' command: Not so much anymore. However, even with 85 per cent of Canadians being governed by female premiers, women still earn 72 per cent of what a man makes and one in three women will experience some form of sexual assault in their lifetime. Why, O Canada, why?
With glowing hearts: O Canada, although we're proud of many parts of the medicare system that keeps our hearts healthy and glowing, why are people who come here as refugees being denied access to care for their illnesses?
We see thee rise: In fact, O Canada, we have seen thee fall. Known as "Number One" on the United Nation's human development index for most of the '90s, you're sitting at number 11 this year. Once recognized for your environmental integrity and leadership, you're now being called an "environmental laggard," by your Conference Board, O Canada, because you rank 15th out of 17 developed nations on environmental performance. Where will you be on this list if the oil sands are developed?
The true north: The north may be true but are you true to the north, O Canada? While you claim sovereignty of your northern lands and oceans, you don't seem interested in controlling your greenhouse gas emissions that are melting away the ice cap, creating enormous implications for plants, animals and people throughout the world.
Strong and free: While we celebrate your Charter of Rights and Freedoms in many ways, O Canada, you must have been disappointed with the barriers to freedom during the G20 summit in Toronto. Did you ever imagine such a scene here? And instead of addressing the root causes of crime such as poverty and homelessness, prisons such as the Grand Valley Institution for Women, in Kitchener, are bursting at the seams and not able to rehabilitate inmates toward a lasting freedom.
From far and wide, O Canada: Far and wide and top to bottom, this land is beautiful but dangerous. Rivers overflow and lands flood. Winds ravage and lightning strikes. But the sun sets on Lake Huron like no place in the world, and the mountains and the lakes have held us spellbound since even before your birth, O Canada.
We stand on guard for thee. God keep our land: Whatever our faiths or belief systems, O Canada, we owe it to you to stand on guard as stewards of this great land, not pointing fingers at those we deem to be in charge but taking ownership for our part in all of this.
Glorious and free: May we celebrate your 146th birthday in recognition of the freedom you provide and offer the gift of ourselves to bring you back to your former glory.
O Canada: I still love you best.

I'm glad I missed this, as I did the Dyke Parade this year, however tomorrow I will be at Pride to illustrate how your hard earned tax dollars are being spent.

The U.S. led the world to the triumph of democracy and the free market. But it is not now one of the more exemplary practitioners of either...
SOCIAL IN-ACTIVISTS MANIPULATE THEIR "CAUSE"
...and make them "cottage industries" allowing them to get closer to the government funding trough of "social injustice!"

HUMOUROUS ASPECT DISSIPATES...
...when in both the USA and Canada we have migrants working in our fields and sending the $$$ home and when you call large corporations you get to speak to well educated foreign workers, highly lucrative businesses are started with foreign capital allowing these new businesses to undercut Canadian/USA enterprises, much of the money we borrow comes from the middle and far east, etc. etc.

A TRADEGY MORE CITIZENS DON'T ADOPT THIS ATTITUDE
What would happen if funding for multi-cultural programs was stopped and politcians at all levels stopped dressing in "traditional" costumes when marching in parades?
My 47 years in Canada
I stopped seeing myself as a hyphenated Canadian, even if my double identity is of interest to demographers and pollsters. As Laurier would say: “I am a Canadian first, last and all the time.”

ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF MY DISDAIN FOR "SOCIAL" NETWORKING
TWITS TWEET
Are you a lousy parker? Be prepared for a public shaming
I have said it before and will say it again...tweeting has deprived spinsters, invalids, peepers, et al have been deprived of a major item in their existence and window blind/drapery manufacturers have taken a hit on their bottom line.
I HAVE A VISION...(Save The Homophobic Accusations)
Transgender artists stripped of right to fly
* Wynner supporters hold a "book burning" at Nathan Phillips Square, which will probably be renamed Joanne Circle, of books no longer used to teach the 3 Rs thanks to her group of educators who think the priority is a club for alternative sex students.
* Will promote her diversity campagian by having white people wear arm bands with the Star Of David prominent.
* Will push for diverse neighborhoods (ghettos) similar to the Church/Wellesley area,
* A NEW FLAG, containing the following for Ontario, which proudly promotes the McGoonty/Wynner/Liberal reality that has been their mantra for Ontario Voters

HMMM!
Homophobic message? You have to wonder if this is one of those; "I have no problem with (insert issue) but...
POLITICAL BRAVADO?
Citizens in the area deserve a break but some might wonder why those attending might make better use of their time shoveling mud, cleaning up debris, ensuring everyone has a roof over their head, etc. etc. would it be a tragedy if they held the event, even in a smaller scale, in August, September...
HEADLINE MAKES THIS A MUST READ!
More Balls Than All the North American Male Reporters Combined!
One doesn't have to agree with every aspect of Clare Daly's politics to appreciate that very few politicians or journalists would have the balls to speak so honestly about Barack & Michelle Obama.

Battle: Toronto-Centre
The battle to be the next federal Liberal candidate in Toronto-Centre is heating up, the week after Bob Rae announced he will be stepping down as MP. It 's shaping up to be a race between a political veteran and a fresh face - one known for being a pitbull in politics, the other as more soft-spoken.
George Smitherman tells Newstalk 1010 he's seriously considering throwing his hat into the ring, noting Ottawa is the next step for him politically. Smitherman says he's had extensive talks with his family about the issue.
Smitherman calls Toronto-Centre "home political territory" given that was his riding as MPP at Queen's Park and says believes he has enough support to keep the riding red.
However, Sachin Aggarwal may be the Liberal favourite . Sources close to the 34-year-old say high-level Liberals have approached him to seek the nomination, including Ontario Transportation Minister Glen Murray, who represents the Toronto-Centre riding provincially.
Two sources confirm Aggarwal is seriously thinking about the move.
When asked about going up against younger candidates seeking the nomination, the 49-year-old former provincial Health Minister says he still considers himself young and notes his experience speaks for itself. However, he underlines he may not be the pitbull he once was in the legislature.
Aggarwal is seen as less confrontational than Smitherman.
He was a campaign manager for underdog Toronto mayoralty candidate Rocco Rossi in the 2010 municipal election. Smitherman lost in that same election to Mayor Rob Ford.
Smitherman brushes aside the thought that any one event - like the mayoral loss or eHealth scandal spending tied to his name - would affect his chances to run federally.
The dates for the Toronto-Centre by-election and the Liberal nomination meeting to choose the party's candidate have not been set.

YOU HAVE TO WONDER WHAT MOTHER NATURE DOES ON HER VACATION TIME?
A LONG TIME COMING...
...but I will bet that educators felt it was time for a change when English Majors, Social In-Activists, Corona Champions, et al were being turned down for jobs at fast food restaurants.
Universities have to change to adapt with the times, even if those changes upset a few students along the way.

- Unhypentated Canadian
- I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
