“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

FELDSTED – The Great Reset for Canadians

 


It is not the reset the United Nations and World Economic Forum are proposing. We don’t need those unelected and unaccountable geniuses (in their minds) controlling our nation and our lives.

Even the dullest among us understand that we have locked ourselves into a downward spiral. When our spending consistently exceeds income, there can be no happy ending.

We have become a nation bound in the chains of failing ideologies and sacred cows. Our politicians are avoiding accountability and pretending that they have no viable solutions to continual deficits.

Enter Moya Greene with a no-holds-barred ground-shaking plan proposing everything from tax increases and deep spending cuts to streamlining the public service to privatization for the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador. This is a plan needed from coast to coast to coast.

Please take time to read the entire article. It is well worth it.

I do not advocate adopting the Greene report recommendation across all jurisdictions as impacts will vary from province to province. Still, we desperately need a new perspective and thinking outside the current political boxes that hem us in. We have not had a fresh approach to our difficulties in decades and, without creative thinking, will become victims of insolvency, runaway inflation, or likely both.

Failure to deal harshly with planning dependent on increased debt levels will drive our population into poverty and sharply reduced living standards. Our MPs, MLAs, and MPPs are directors of our governments and have an inescapable fiduciary responsibility to govern prudently. Continual deficit spending should land them in prison.

Tossing Justin Trudeau is not enough. We need governments committed to finding a path for us to live within our means. The alternative is for all but the most wealthy to suffer degradation of our living standards.

We need to dig in our heels and refuse to allow our governments to drive us into poverty so we will accept slavery. We are perilously close to that at present.

PEATS: I am writing with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community

The following is a copy of a letter sent to me, which was sent to BC’s Minister of Health Adrian Dix. It is with regards to the impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic in Dawson Creek.   Dear Minister,   I am writing to you today with a critical concern regarding the imminent closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic, a vital healthcare facility in our community. The closure, scheduled for the summer of 2024, is a result of the utterly burdensome terms and conditions imposed by the bureaucratic Northern Health. As a result, Dawson Creek stands to lose four doctors who have made this city their home, and who wish to continue serving the people of our community.   The impending closure of the Eljen Medical Clinic is a significant blow to our city. Not only will it result in the loss of highly qualified and dedicated healthcare professionals, but it will also deprive thousands of Dawson Creek residents of access to their primary physicians. At a time when healthcare se

Selina Robinson: "You broke my heart . . ." (The Real Story)

The mildly Zionist, innocuously leftish and now ousted advanced education minister’s letter to her New Democratic Party caucus colleagues, explaining why she has resigned the caucus to sit as an independent. The letter is an historic document, an artifact of the disgraceful cultural moment we’re living through. It’s important. It’s also a scorcher. It’s gathering a heck of a lot of attention . I’m printing it in full here. I’ve been insisting that what happened to Robinson is a much bigger deal and a completely different story than the one we’d all been led to believe. The necessary background: My piece in the National Post: The despicable untruths behind Selina Robinson's political lynching . More importantly , a Real Story investigation: The Problem With The Selina Robinson Story. . . It wasn't true. What follows is the story of what really happened. Let’s just get into it. Apart from punctuation and spelling I replicate the letter faithfully, with some further comm

Long-time former BC Liberal supporter says, I am definitely not hanging in there with BC United

                              BC United leader Kevin Falcon I recently asked a political acquaintance of mine, about their current involvement with BC United.   I was much surprised with the response given the BC Liberals had been the recipient of a lot of their time and energy in the past. By request, their comments are posted anonymously : I am definitely not hanging in there with BC United. Kevin’s poor judgement in ousting John Rustad from Caucus, and then publicly humiliating him, might be the most inept thing I have seen in BC politics ... and I’ve been involved in BC politics for a number of years! I still think the impetus was John‘s involvement in the Ellis Ross leadership campaign for the BC Liberal Party, and how successful and respected (despite not winning) it was. I am uncertain about the tenor of the current Conservative movement in North America. The once proud Republican Party in the United States has allowed itself to be led by a person who is morally, intell
