Montreal Simon: The Nasty Cons and Great Macho Man Leader

Well I think it's safe to say that Stephen Harper must be feeling a bit bruised this weekend, like Napoleon did, after his unfortunate visit to Moscow.He's mourning the death of his old pitbull Doug Finley, who taught him not to take any prisoners. Back in the glory days when his caucus was still loyal. And he didn't have to worry about being taken prisoner himself.Or being held hostage, by his own rabid base. Read more »

Montreal Simon: The Big Pot Party and the Criminal Cons

I didn't have a chance to attend any of the pro-marijuana rallies today.Like this one in Vancouver.Or any of the many others. Canadians gathered in cities across the country Saturday to mark April 20, an unofficial annual holiday celebrating cannabis culture. But if I had been there I definitely would have inhaled eh?

Montreal Simon: The Ghastly Legacy of Margaret Thatcher

This time I waited until I was sure she was dead before I started celebrating eh?For I'll never forget the last time Margaret Thatcher's death was announced.

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Con Pit Bulls

When you stare at the public face of Stephen Harper's sinister Con regime, what you see is horrifying enough.A tired, morally corrupt regime, that is willing to lie, muzzle people, or do anything to cling to power.But what most Canadians don't see, what is hidden from their view, is even more frightening.Read more »

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper’s Witch Hunt Backfires Badly

Well it has been a year since Stephen Harper declared war on environmentalists.And started going after the Green Menace like Joe McCarthy went after the red one. Calling respected environmental groups "radicals" and "extremists" and ordering that they be investigated.

Now the first results are in, and no doubt Harper is rolling on the floor of his bunker tonight, screaming with disappointment, and/or biting the carpet. Read more »

Montreal Simon: The Harper Cons Shame Canada Again

He did it DELIBERATELY !!!! And the Cons have REASONS !!!! Read more »

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Rob Ford, and the Con Liars

The great Abraham Lincoln once said no man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar. But then he didn't live in Con Canada eh? And he didn't know Stephen Harper. Because either the great man was wrong, or Harper has a phenomenal memory. Just like his scary ancestor. Who never forgot ANYTHING his enemies did to him. For even as Great Lincoln Leader struggles to put down the backbench rebellion of the Reform Confederacy, he just can't stop LYING.Read more »

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Rebranding of Canada

As you know the Con regime is obsessed with changing or rebranding the name and the look of everything Canadian eh?Making the colours of Canada blue and red, like the Con logo, instead of red and white like our flag.Or solemnly declaring honking that henceforth the Government of Canada should be known as THE HARPER GOVERNMENT.Well now we have a better idea of just how far this crazed crusade has gone.

Well as you know today was St Patrick's Day, and no doubt wee little Jimbo Flaherty was running around looking for the pot of gold.The one he lost when he cut the GST.And probably wishing he didn't have to call his new budget Porky Action Plan 2013.Because it's hard to imagine a worse way to sell a budget, than reminding Canadians of something that's driving them CRAAAAAZY !!!!

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper, the Scientists, and the Spaceman

It could have been a truly great occasion.A group of Canadian kids getting a chance to talk to a real Canadian hero, Chris Hadfield.But of course he HAD to be there.Hundreds of school children have chatted live with Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield as he orbits the earth, and now Prime Minister Stephen Harper has had his chance, too.

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper and Our New and Armed Forces

But that his warrior government would stop them if we bought those fancy jets. His propaganda machine hummed heroically. But that was then, and this is now.Read more »

Montreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Carbon Trap

It's been the weirdest winter ever where I live.It was so warm for so long it took forever for the canal to freeze, until it was safe enough to skate on.Then it thawed so quickly, the net got stranded in the middle of nowhere, with the ice too thin to retrieve it.And since I blame global warming for this latest disaster, and so many others, I wasn't exactly thrilled by this news.Read more »
