I’ve been thinking about the state of affairs in Canadian politics. In case you haven’t noticed we have a single conservative party winning majorities while getting a minority of the vote. This isn’t a good thing for Canada and we need to do somethin…

What’s worse than being a fat, polluting, racist, ignorant jerk? That’s easy, not knowing you are one. And what’s worse than even that? Being in a society full of people just like you, where no one is aware of immoral conduct, of greed, of sexism, and of the ignorance that
Continue readingThe Scott Ross: The Liberal Post
The Liberal Party is like a newspaper, regardless of whether there is news or not, it has to keep coming out claiming something important has happened because if it doesn’t it will go under. Just like newspapers have to print every morning, regardless of whether there is any real news,

Liberals like to pretend, and this is reinforced by public opinion, that the Liberal Party didn’t stand for anything in the last election and that’s why they lost. Liberal members and the public both say this, both acknowledge this, both perpetuate this, that the party led by Michael Ignatieff offered

How much would you give to protect your own religious freedom? Probably a lot, from money, to political action, to perhaps your life. I suspect you would give comparably to protect that freedom of another Canadian. Now what would you give to protect the religious freedom of only people in

Seriously Hugh. The “leak” of your election platform is as disengenuous as the document itself. So the polling that now has you ten points back has also showed that Manitobans are in no mood for the cuts in public services that you have been advocating for. In response, the Team McFadyen brain trust has decided […]

There has been a general consensus among liberals, since the May 2 election debacle, that the party’s PR machine and recruiting mechanism need an extreme overhaul, a new vision and strategy through which the party can re-gain the attention of voter…

Akaash Maharaj - Practical Idealism: Akaash Maharaj – Global News: Analysis of the NDP Platform
My analysis of the NDP’s platform for Global Television News. It has proven to be a politically shrewd, but fiscally improbable document. Ultimately, could Layton deliver on his his five key areas during his first 100 days, as he promises? Not unless t…
