“I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind.” ~~ John G. Diefenbaker

CANADA’S ENERGY CITIZENS: We wanted to show you a headline from this morning


CALGARY:  March 12th, 2019 

U.S. the new oil king as Canadian outlook deteriorates: IEA ... The International Energy Agency’s latest oil forecast sees diverging prospects for the two neighbours’ oil and natural gas industries

One of the main reasons why? Continued delays in building new pipelines.  This is Canada in 2019. How did this happen?

Canada sits on the third largest known reserves on the planet. We are global leaders when it comes to environmental responsibility, innovation and safety. Past surveys* have shown that the world would choose Canadian oil and energy products before any other country in the world.

*People around the world see Canadian oil and natural gas as the energy of the future, according to a new global research survey.

But here’s the cold reality.

A lack of leadership or direct confrontation from political leaders has meant tens of billions of dollars of investment evaporating out of Canada. A range of new policies have made our country less competitive while we let foreign oil continue to sail into our country without the same regulatory challenges.

Those are jobs for all Canadians right across the country that have disappeared and are instead being sent to other countries like the United States, Saudi Arabia or Nigeria. And that’s billions more in government revenues that should be going to things like new roads, hospitals and schools.


To make things even worse, the federal government is piling on with new legislation that will make building new pipelines nearly impossible with bills C-69 and C-48.



That’s unacceptable.

Tell senators and the federal government that Canadians do not back these bills and it’s time to bring investment back into Canada.



Send a letter now ... Take action ... Fight for Canada’s future.

GORDON F. D. WILSON: When The Trick Masquerades as The Treat

Thirty-seven years ago, Halloween 1987, I became the leader of the BC Liberal Party.   British Columbia was badly polarized. Social Credit held one side and the NDP the other. It had been twelve years, 1975, since Liberal MLAs Garde Gardom, Pat McGeer, and Alan Williams had walked away from their party to join Social Credit, one year after the lone Progressive Conservative MLA Hugh Curtis had abandoned his party to sit with Bill Bennett, the son and heir apparent to long-serving BC Premier, WAC Bennett.   An unwritten agreement by the biggest Canadian political shareholders, the federal Liberals and Conservatives, decided that if British Columbia was to remain a lucrative franchise from a revenue perspective, they couldn’t risk splitting the electoral vote and electing the real enemy, the NDP, so no resources would be used to finance either a Liberal or Conservative party provincially.   “There are two sides to every street,” I was told by a very prominent Canadian businessman who cont

FORSETH: As a BC Conservative member, and campaign worker, I will again state that the fact these errors were found -- AND brought to light BY Elections BC -- shows the system IS working

Sadly, two and a half weeks after the BC provincial election campaign, those who want to undermine our political process are still at.  PLUS, we also have one who doesn’t even live in our country, never mind our province. I speak of the buffoon running for President of the United States, who has poisoned the well when it comes to faith in the electoral process. Just today alone, comments such as the following, were being made of posts that I shared online: ... all the votes they keep finding has just favoured NDP on in all critical ridings and soon they will flip another riding in favour of NDP, Come on. ... Elections BC has ridiculed British Columbians, and I no longer have confidence or trust in their process and competence regarding the results Then there are others online, with comments like these – who are claiming fraud in the October 19th election: ... Who is the oversight for Elections BC? They should be investigated for election fraud! ... Fraudulent election ... should be red
