God Ordered This Census, You Say?

Published by jnarvey under Canada, Media, canadian politics

You’ve got to be kidding. First, just about every hard-boiled secular (or at least non-Christian) political opponent of Prime Minister Stephen Harper has already implied he’s some kind of nefarious theocrat with a hidden evangelical agenda that’s sort of modeled on Iran’s Islamic Republic.

But what’s the latest criticism of Steve-O? The PM is ignoring the will of God by making the census voluntary.

Our government is wrong-headed in its policy direction because it refuses to be influenced by cherry-picked verses from the Old Testament? What?

You can’t make this stuff up. Thanks, Globe and Mail.

The Bloc Quebecois Is Worried About Traitors to Canada

Published by jnarvey under Canada, canadian politics

Separatists in Quebec want potential traitors to Canada identified by CSIS toute suite. How about looking in a mirror, Maria from the Bloc? From Kelly McParland in the National Post:

The head of CSIS, the national spy agency, is being questioned about his contention that some Canadian politicians are under the influence of foreign governments, and who gets all hot under the collar about it? A Bloc MP, who wants the “traitors” identified.

“Who are the traitors in the current political class, Mr. Fadden?” demanded Maria Mourani of the Bloc Quebecois. Mr. Fadden described her words as totally inappropriate, saying there was no question of treason.

“You don’t use the word ‘traitor’ but I’ll say it…. I’m giving you a chance to tell us. Who are these ministers who are traitors to the nation?” Ms. Mourani fired back.

Um… yeah.

The Propagandist Goes To War

It’s a weird, scary world out there. Hugo Chavez fanboys and Hezbollah-luvin’ fifth columnists are trying to undermine our rights and bring us back to the Dark Ages. Political correctness is strangling free speech.

The Propagandist is fighting back.

New Media fans, note that I’ll be moving much of my original political writing over to The Propagandist. This is not just another political website — we aim to make this THE go-to online magazine of its kind. Think Adbusters, but with a 180-degree difference in editorial slant.

The Propagandist is also looking for contributors. Interested? Check out the submission guidelines.

Read some of the latest articles in The Propagandist:

Libby Davies Has To Go

Libby Davies can be seen on YouTube saying she thinks that chanting “long live the intifada” “sounds good” and saying (not once but twice) that Israel has been occupying Palestinian land since 1948, that “it’s the longest occupation in history,” and that it’s time for boycotts and disinvestment. – Bob Rae

People are fired up about this. Here’s video of a protest outside NDP MP Libby Davies’ office in the heart of Vancouver:
