Montreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Ugly Toilet Bowl Moment
I have to admit I'm stunned. I honestly thought that Andrew Scheer had hit rock bottom when he refused to apologize for comparing LGBT Canadians to dogs.And exposed his naked homophobia. But I was wrong. Somehow Scheer managed to sink even lower into the steaming bowl of excrement.And now he's accusing
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer, Hamish Marshall, and the Rebel Party
Ever since Andrew Scheer hired Hamish Marshall, he has never really had to explain why he would hire as his campaign manager a man who help found the hate mongering Rebel.A man who worked with the ugly bigot Ezra Levant to harvest hate for dollars.The MSM has never asked Scheer any

In light of PEGIDA Canada’s Jenny Hill’s failed attempt to crowdfund for her $11,000 judgment, we thought it prudent to bring to the public’s attention another PEGIDA related GoFundMe that deserves similar attention and action. Yellow Vests Canada members, PEGIDA supporters, general hatemongers, and self-professed “Domestic War Reporters” Rick Boswick and Derek

“Dirty Jew.” It’s the Summer of 1986. The place: Caroline, Alta., just outside Red Deer. The slur has been uttered by Terry Long, the “High Aryan Warrior Priest” of the Canadian branch of the Aryan Nations. I’m at the fenced gate leading to Long’s acreage. On either side of me

It was one of the most grotesque interviews I have ever seen. Two right-wing Christian fanatics on the bigot Rebel, discussing why they could never support a harmless motion condemning islamophobia, not long after a gunman killed six Muslims in Quebec City.And then cheerfully making plans to go duck hunting together.Andrew Scheer
Continue readingAlberta Politics: The declining impact of ‘bozo eruptions’ – are Albertans the proverbial frog in a pot of boiling water?
Have Albertans grown so inured to Conservative “bozo eruptions” they no longer have much impact? To put that another way, have we grown so accustomed to the Lake of Fire that we imagine we can bathe in it comfortably without putting on an asbestos swimsuit? That’s likely at least part

“Call me Stephen Harper with a smile” Andrew Scheer There is one truism about the Conservative Party of Canada under Andrew Scheer. It may be Andrew Scheer’s smile, but it is still the party of Stephen Harper. I am not here to beat up on Stephen Harper however, who has

It's a double blow for Andrew Scheer. The fake scandal is fading to black, but the other real scandal isn't going anywhere.The scandal where he revealed his true colours, by addressing a gathering on Parliament Hill riddled with racists, far-right extremists, and white nationalists like Faith Goldy, Scheer's old Rebel

For Canadaland on September 26, 2018 On January 25, 2018, Roosh V — real name Daryush Valizadeh, a rank misogynist and denizen of the so-called “manosphere” — hosted a live-streamed discussion of “tradthots” in the far right. A “tradthot” is a female internet personality who preaches “traditional” values and gender

According to an increasingly influential segment of the United Conservative Party’s social conservative base, Albertans who have taken to social media to assail an ally of party leader Jason Kenney for the bigotry evident in his comparison of the pride flag to the Nazi swastika are nothing more than “the

It's now been four days since Doug Ford and Faith Goldy met at the Ford Fest and had their picture taken together.And despite the fact that Goldy is a white supremacist and an alt right extremist, Ford has refused to condemn her, or apologize for his bad judgement.And yesterday was more

As you know I like to portray Doug Ford as a political ape, a brutish demagogue drunk on power who is leading Ontario to disaster.But now I think I may have underestimated the threat he poses to this country and its values.Now I think we can all start calling him a

Ah, ye little Faith. Not that little, actually. She’s tallish, slouching near the doors at Sun News Network, chain-smoking. Smirking. “Troll with a tan,” someone at the erstwhile network said about her. Uncharitably, but not inaccurately. That indeed seemed to be the whole package: a suspiciously deep, orange-ish tan, and

It looked like some kind of low budget religious TV program, with a host and a guest who were made for each other.Faith Goldy, the monstrous Christian Crusader and white supremacist, and Andrew Scheer, the creepy religious fanatic and alt-right sympathizer who would be Prime Minister.Sitting in one of Ezra Levant's

She was Ezra Levant's pet and Andrew Scheer's favourite Rebel journalist talking head. And for good reason.She's a religious fanatic like Scheer, she calls him "our people," she once demanded that the Pope excommunicate Justin Trudeau.And she's called for Christians to mount a new crusade to take back the Middle
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Andrew Scheer’s Cowardly Non Condemnation of Ezra Levant
Earlier today I wrote a post demanding to know why Andrew Scheer was hesitating to condemn the white supremacist views of Ezra Levant's bigot Rebel.After spending so much time riding on that stinking and sinking boat. Well now it turns out he did say something about it in B.C. last night.And

Another case of “she who smelled it, dealt it?” So shouts Fox News North. Or, Faith Goldy to be exact. Goldy spoke about the incident on The Source, saying, “”I’m just minding my own business, when all of sudden something putrid emerges in the air. So I gaze from my
