“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

Nanaimo Conservative Party of Canada EDA President Mark MacDonald should do the right thing ... resign


CPC EDA President Mark MacDonalds
statement for January 16th
It seems Conservative Party of Canada Nanaimo EDA President, Mark MacDonald, was taking desperate measures today to explain away his recent shot AGAINST the BC Conservative Party. 

In my opinion however, and using the immortal words of Ricky Riccardo, he has ... "more splainin" to do.

No matter what he is now saying today, On January 16th HE WAS in fact advising Conservative Party of Canada members, to vote for the bc LIBERALS.

And ... he was doing it with the Nanaimo EDA logo and social media account. And he did the exact same thing today!

TODAY'S statement from Nanaimo-Ladysmith
Conservative Party EDA President Mark MacDondald
If, in fact, he was just trying to make a personal comment, and now wants us to believe he made a bad hash of it, then why was he using Conservative Party of Canada logo and account? 

That seems pretty deliberate to me ... and I am guessing again several bylaws and principles of the Conservative Party of Canada.

People have had to resign for that same thing in the past – the improper use of registered and copy-written material ... or speaking a personal opinion but using the Official Office he is elected to, to do so.

It’s my opinion therefore, Mark MacDonald should do the right thing, and also resign.  That way, if he wants to support the BC Liberal Party, he’ll be free and clear to do so.

    This has been an issue for the BCCP for a very long time. The Federal Conservatives do not and have never supported the BCCP. In fact the CPC has gone out of its way to distance itself from the BCCP. To make matters worse Andrew Scheer has pulled the CPC to a centrist position, hardly differentiating it from the Federal Liberals. Why would you be surprised that they are supporting the provincial Liberals? The People's Party of Canada (PPC) is a better fit for the BCCP than the CPC. When is the BCCP going to wake up and negotiate with the PPC for recognition?

    A Liberal in blue isn’t a CONSERVATIVE. We know the difference. Andrew Wilkinson is a Trudeau boy, just blowin smoke. They will never build the pipe line. This attack by Mark MacDonald is just the latest of many. Regards Don Purdey

KRUGELL: BC NDP turns its attention from BC United to BC Conservatives

The BC NDP turning its attention, from BC United, to BC Conservatives was reported over the weekend from a variety of sources. It is the result of the surge in the BC Conservative's polling numbers and the subsequent collapse of BC United. The NDP has largely ignored the BC Conservatives, instead they opt to talk about issues directly or attack their old foes BC United. Practical politics says that parties closer to the centre tend to ultimately prevail over the long haul. They do wane but often make comebacks. A good example is the federal Liberals going from third party to government in 2015. Centrism has a lot of appeal on voting day. The NDP shifting its fire from United to Conservative is a reflection of reality. BC United did buy advertising online and radio over the last few months. Did that shift the polls back to them? Nope. The reality is today, the BC Conservatives are the party of the Opposition, and day by day the Conservatives are looking like a party not ready to fig

The fact that child killer Allan Schoenborn has successfully changed his name under BC laws has prompted finger-pointing among politicians.

What My Dad Taught Me about Grief, Art and What Makes a Life (The Tyee)

In October 2017, the day after I found out my dad had died from an accidental drug overdose, I picked up my camera and loaded it with a roll of film. Photography is how I make a living and it’s also how I process my experience of the world. In the immediate days after my dad died, I often felt the weight of dissonant, opposing emotions. Our relationship was complex and thus created polarizing memories that can bring a smile to my face or overwhelm me with sadness. Creating double exposures was a way for me to express the contradicting and fraught emotions I was experiencing ... CLICK HERE for the full story
