“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

DAY SEVEN ... a look back at the week of March 24th to 30th


My apologies folks, however I got busy last Sunday and missed putting up the list of Top Ten most read articles and stories of the week.  So ... without any further ado ... let’s get things underway and take a look at things for this past week starting with the first of three posts from John Feldsted:


#10 ... FELDSTED: Canada cannot be allowed to be held hostage by a minority of foreign subsidized, self-styled environmentalists determined to destroy the Canadian economy



#9 ... FRANK LEONARD: I never asked Larry if he indeed did remember Ken because it doesn’t matter. Larry had given a priceless gift to Ken and his family and that was all that mattered.



#8 ... FELDSTED: The stench of unethical actions will hang in the caucus room like the odor of a barrel of rotting fish

#7 ... ADAM OLSEN: Just imagine a scenario where it was being proposed that the gravesite of one of your ancestors, one of your grandparents' gravesite, was going to have a house built on it



#6 ... FELDSTED: The back-room dealings, controversy, rumours scandal, and secrecy are an object lesson in why governments should not be involved with or support business enterprises of any kind


#5 ... ADAM OLSEN: My colleagues in the BC NDP have seemingly bought the hype hyperbole, and propaganda, they once so bitterly denounced


#4 ... SUITS AND BOOTS: The Senate indeed has the power to kill C69 … we are calling on them to again exercise their power of sober second thought


#3 ... FORSETH: Manitoba now joining Alberta and Saskatchewan requiring mandatory commercial truck driver training. Meantime here in BC ICBC says it will help you pass your tests


#2 ... DAN ALBAS: Examples that point towards increased household debt ... in order to access the benefits of the programs ... that themselves are being offered by a $19.8 billion deficit budget

And last but not least .... here is the most read op / ed piece of the week:

#1 ... FORSETH: Jody Wilson-Raybould, “... this is about the integrity of the government ... this is going to look like nothing but political interference ...”



Again ... thank you for being a part of the journey on the blog site ... and thank you for taking the time to read the divergent thoughts and opinions presented by the writers taking time to write and share their thoughts.

Have a great week!

The NDP is destroying BC's softwood industry as 100 Mile House mill shuts down and jobs vanish

No more than a few days after the province hosted its much-touted summit to discuss the continuing impact of U.S. softwood tariffs, and with Statistics Canada reporting another decline in BC’s softwood production, the axe has fallen on West Fraser Timber’s 100 Mile House mill. Lorne Doerkson, MLA for Cariboo–Chilcotin , says the devastation now hitting the South Cariboo is what happens when government ignores every warning sign coming from the forest sector. “One hundred and sixty-five people in 100 Mile House just lost their jobs,” said Doerkson. “That’s 165 families wondering how they’ll pay their bills and whether they can stay in their own community. The ripple effect will hit every business on main street, from the gas stations and restaurants to the grocery stores.” “The Minister’s thoughts and prayers aren’t enough for those families facing unimaginable hardship. It’s time this minister did his job and not another photo op,” said Doerkson. “The Minister thinks the ...

Premier’s Office Acknowledges Richmond Residents Affected by Cowichan Land Claim Face Issues on “Mortgages, Property Sales”

“The Premier’s Office is secretly sending letters to my constituents behind my back. If the NDP were truly committed to transparency and supporting residents, they would have proactively engaged with owners years ago, not rushed out last-minute letters to cover their tracks.” ~~ Steve Kooner, Conservative MLA for Richmond-Queensborough and Opposition Critic for Attorney General Steve Kooner, Conservative MLA for Richmond-Queensborough and Opposition Critic for Attorney General, is criticising Premier David Eby and the NDP provincial government for secretly delivering non-committal, last-minute letters to Richmond residents affected by the Cowichan Tribes land claim. For over six years the NDP misled British Columbians on the implications of indigenous land claims. Premier Eby is now quietly sending staff to conduct damage control following public fallout from his 2019 strategic directive for government lawyers not to argue extinguishment of aboriginal title, even over p...

Kamloops woman’s cancer test cancelled due to Interior Health mandates for OB/GYNs (iNFO News)

A Kamloops woman’s cancer screening appointment was considered urgent by her doctors and scheduled within weeks, but it was postponed indefinitely when Interior Health ordered her gynecologist take that day’s on-call shift. Troylana Manson now waits with the mystery of whether she might have cancer amid a staffing crisis for women’s health care specialists in Kamloops. “I was happy to have that appointment in December so we could rule this out, but now it’s thrown in the air again. People in Kamloops, certainly people in positions of power, need to realize what Interior Health is doing”  ... CLICK HERE for the full story
