Well let's put it this way, it wasn't one of Rona Ambrose's better days.It's not that she's had many good ones. She hasn't.But this was a day of triple embarrassment.First Kevin O'Leary took aim at Rona's bombing fixati…

Montreal Simon: Justin Trudeau, the New Military Mission, and the Madness of Rona Ambrose
Now I understand why Justin Trudeau took his time before unveiling our new military mission in Iraq and Syria.For it was worth the wait.It's far more rational and sophisticated than the Con's one dimensional bombing mission.Much bigger than Ron…

Well let nobody say I didn't warn them. I predicted Jason Kenney would be the worst possible Defence Minister for these troubled times.I knew that sexually repressed religious fanatic would be inflamed by a religious war, and the sight of so many men in uniform.And would soon lose control of
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Jihadi From Hell or Ottawa
When I first heard the news that another Canadian jihadi had surfaced on YouTube, and was making wild threats against us, at first I was naturally terrified.Could Great Closet Leader really have found another warrior wannabe like himself, to scare the cowardly into voting for his foul Con regime?And try to
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the ISIS National Anthem
I see the leader of the ISIS Death Cult may have had a bruising encounter with the American Death Machine.Iraqi officials said Sunday that the head of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was wounded in an airstrike in western Anbar province. Pentagon officials said they
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the War He Won’t Fight
Well now we really are at war. Canadian warplanes have dropped their first bombs on Iraq.And in his command bunker or closet, Stephen Harper has been tweeting or retweeting up a storm. And so have his excited followers. Even though even the "good guys" in the region think it's a waste of
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, The Great Fear, and the Great War on Justin
Uh oh. Now we really are at war again. The ominous signs are unmistakable.The CF-18s are on the way to the Middle East. To save us from the ISIS hordes that would behead us in our beds. Or mow us down in a Tim Horton's parking lot.Because you're not safe anywhere eh?
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Big Business of War
In the fog of war there are some things about Stephen Harper's plan to use airstrikes to defeat the ISIS crazies that are already abundantly clear.One, they make him look as if he's taking decisive action, even though so far they are proving notoriously ineffective. Two, they are REALLY expensive. In a
Continue readingMontreal Simon: The Day Stephen Harper Was Accused of Flirting with Fascism
I always knew he'd lead this country to a very dark place, from the day he came to office.And the very first thing he did was order the removal of the words "women's rights" from thousands of government documents.I knew then that he was an alien beast like we had
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War: The Blood Moon and the Con Insanity
It's raining where I live tonight so I can't see the blood moon. But I'm sure if I was in Ottawa I would get a great view of it.Hanging low and bloody over the House of Commons.Because this was the day Stephen Harper finally got his War in Iraq.And it
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Con ISIS Enablers
So great is Stephen Harper's contempt for Parliament, that even on the day when it debated his plan to take us to war, he didn't even bother to show up.No doubt preferring to stay at home, and prepare himself psychologically so he can control himself, and his bowels, when the special
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War: Churchill Moment or Swan Song?
It was the night before Canada officially goes to war, and no doubt in his command bunker Stephen Harper must have been in a state of feverish delirium.No doubt believing that Harper's War will make him look like a Great Strong Leader, and that he'll be able to destroy the
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper, Harper’s War, and the Fear Factor
Well he's got his war, tomorrow's debate and vote in the House of Commons will be a mere formality.But then he'll have to sell it, and that won't be easy.Because he won't be able to claim that the Americans asked us to participate, since we now know he begged them
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Harper’s War and the Last Desperate Gamble of the Con regime
Eleven years ago Stephen Harper tried to drag us into a war in Iraq, and today he finally succeeded. Canada is heading to war in Iraq after Stephen Harper’s announcement that he intends to deploy jet fighters to join coalition air strikes against Islamic State militants for as long as six
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Slow Striptease to War
Well it's been a long slow striptease to war. A little tease here, a little tease there.One moment it was the Americans inviting us to take part in their new Great War on Terror. The next moment it was Stephen Harper inviting himself.One moment we had 69 soldiers in Iraq,
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Catastrophic Collapse of the Con Regime
We'll have to wait until tomorrow to hear how Stephen plans to take us to war.And how many planes and soldiers he will send to join the heroic twenty-six he sent to stop the ISIS hordes. Canada has only 26 soldiers in Iraq serving as military advisers, rather than the 69
Continue readingMontreal Simon: Stephen Harper and the Road to War
I have no idea which voice in his head was commanding him, but it was a very different Stephen Harper who turned up in the House of Commons today. An unusually subdued version.He reached out to the opposition, answered their questions politely, instead of mocking them, or setting his howling
