“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

Trudeau, and his Liberal government are NOT 'pricing pollution', they are forcing Canadians to pay a TAX for the just about everything we need to live, and die for that matter!


Yesterday, when Conservative Party leader Andrew Sheer stated that, “Justin Trudeau’s Carbon tax does NOTHING to actually help the environment” ... there was a fairly quick response from Gerald Butts, a senior political adviser and political secretary to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

He tweeted that ... "It’s important to respond that most of the country’s (and the world’s) economists and scientists say precisely the opposite. Pricing pollution is an essential part of any serious #ClimateChange plan."

I have news for you Butts ... your federal masters (paying you a salary far higher I am sure than most Canadians) are NOT in fact pricing pollution!

and political secretary to
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau
You are instead hitting Canadians with a TAX on the fuel we need to get to our jobs ... you are hitting us with a TAX on tools carpenters, mechanics, and the like need for their jobs ... its a TAX we pay for increased costs on the homes we buy, and the fuel to heat them ... its an added TAX that gets passed on to us from businesses getting their products to market -- and that INCLUDES the food we eat, and the clothes and footwear we purchase for our children.

In actual fact Butts ... it’s a TAX passed on by your boss Justin Trudeau – an individual who has NEVER in his life every had to working about budgeting for himself, or his family.

What’s the bottom line in this whole commentary, that infuriated me when I saw it?

Here it is.  Trudeau, and his Liberal government are NOT 'pricing pollution', they are forcing Canadians to pay a TAX for the just about everything we need to live, and die for that matter!

Pricing Pollution? No ... I call Bull Shit!

FORSETH -- Focus on the nine things I mentioned. That’s what will allow the Conservative Party to win the next election

IMAGE CREDIT:   Darryl Dyck, the Canadian Press. I thought I had already made up my mind who I would be ranking on my ballot, in the Conservative Party of BC leadership race; now I am not so sure.  That means that, at least for me, and perhaps many others, it’s a good thing voting hasn’t already taken place. There were initially only one or two of the candidates that I thought might be a little too right of centre for my liking, now it seems that list is growing. I consider myself more closely aligned with what used to be called a Progressive Conservative, regardless, I feel more than comfortable within the Conservative Party of BC.  Some, however, in messages to me on my political Facebook page, have been rather, shall we say, a bit mean-spirited in comments they’ve made about my ‘purity’ as a conservative. To tell you the truth, I really don’t care! Some leadership candidates, in comments made online, have also been raising the issue of who is a pure enough conservati...

WARD STAMER -- Those are REAL forestry numbers, not just made-up numbers

The following is a condensed version of remarks Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s made, regarding Forestry, in the BC Legislature, on Tuesday afternoon (02/24/2026)   Let’s talk a little bit, when we talk about Budget 2026, about the forest industry, which is near and dear to my heart. Forestry remains one of British Columbia’s foundational industries. It’s a pillar that built this province. Entire communities depend upon it. Interior towns, northern communities, Vancouver Island regions, the Kootenays, the Lower Mainland, with manufacturing facilities in Surrey and Maple Ridge, just to name a few — everywhere in BC is touched by forestry. One word that was not mentioned in Budget 2026 was forestry. That’s a shame, an incredible shame. It wasn’t an oversight – it was intentional. This government has driven forestry into the ground .... INTO THE GROUND! We can talk a little bit about some of the initiatives that this government has brought forth, to try to resurrect ...

Your government has a gambling problem (Troy Media)

Provinces call it “revenue,” but it looks a lot like exploitation of the marginalized The odds of winning Lotto Max are about 1 in 33 million. You’re statistically more likely to be struck by lightning than to win it. But your government is betting that statistics won’t hold you back; they’re counting on it. Across Canada, provincial governments not only regulate gambling, they also maintain a monopoly on lottery and gaming by owning and operating the entire legal market. That means every scratch card is government-issued, gambling odds are government-set, casino ads are government-funded and lottery billboards are government-paid. And these are not incidental government activities. They generate significant revenues that governments have powerful incentives to expand, not constrain. It would be one thing for our governments to encourage us to engage in healthy activities. We can quibble about whether the government should be trying to convince us to be more active or eat more vegetabl...
