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


The Senate committee has rigged these hearings to ensure that most of the testimony comes from coastal supporters of Bill C-48.
Don Braid ~~ Calgary Herald  ~~ March 23, 2019

The committee will travel to Terrace and Prince Rupert, B.C. But the senators have twice voted down pleas to hold hearings in Alberta and Saskatchewan.

On Friday NDP Leader Rachel Notley sent a letter asking the Senate to reconsider. She urged Albertans to do the same.

“They don’t think the people of Alberta should be heard . . . I gotta tell you, this is kind of an unprecedented stampede of stupid,” Notley said....

‘Stampede of stupid’ hardly covers the arrogant belligerence of the Senate Committee on Transport and Communications. The Senate is failing its duty to consider the interests of all provinces and Canadians. It is very curious that the Committee on Transport and Communications is vetting Bill C-48 rather than the Committee on Energy, the Environment and Natural Resources.

This appears to be a replay of Criminal Code amendments included in a Finance Bill.

Every Canadian has a stake in the Tanker Ban Bill. Development and export of our natural resources involve billions of dollars in lost revenues, tens of thousands of jobs, work for steel mills, foundries, suppliers of fittings, valves, sensors, motors and thousands of supplies needed in the oil and gas fields, pipeline construction, maintenance and service, billions of dollars in investments, and the resurgence of an economy with recession knocking on the door.


Canada cannot be allowed to be held hostage by a minority of foreign-subsidized, self-styled environmentalists determined to destroy the Canadian economy on the altar of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).



Our government has failed to exercise its constitutional powers to act in the best interest of Canadians, claiming its hands are tied by environmentalists when that is not true. 

If this government cannot or will not protect our national interests, it has to go.

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
