“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 - A Liberal organizer declared in 1986 ... ‘Tell them anything to get elected and do what you want when you win’. Trudeau drank the Kool-Aid and acts accordingly


A STARK CHOICE ... pollsters and pundits insist that the Conservatives and Liberals are in “deadlocked” in the 2019 election race. That is hard to believe considering the vast difference between how the two parties plan to govern over the next four years.
 
Conservative leader Andrew Scheer
The Conservatives have proposed a common-sense, reasonable plan to reduce spending on non-essential programs (such as subsidies to corporations) to finance tax reductions while maintaining core services and working to balanced budgets.

The Liberal continue to strike fear in Canadians (fear of a climate crisis; fear of any reductions in government spending) and to spend even more to create a false appearance of prosperity. Liberals will increase borrowing due to budget deficits by $94 billion over the next four years, raising our federal debt from the current $768 billion to $862 billion.

To put that in to perspective, based on a modest 3.2% interest rate, we are currently paying $24.6 billion per year in interest. The Liberals plan to increase that to $27.6 billion by 2023.

That is scary; in 2015, the Liberals promised us the accumulated deficits over the next four years would be $24.1 billion. Their actual record was $71.8 billion. 

They missed their target by $47.4 billion or nearly a double (+97%) overrun.


What the Liberals promise, and deliver are very different. I recall a declaration by a Liberal organizer in 1986: “Tell them anything to get elected and do what you want when you win”. Justin Trudeau drank that Kool-Aid and acts accordingly.

We cannot tolerate another four years of reforming Canada to Justin Trudeau’s globalist ideals. The concerns and well being of Canadians come first and are being ignored by our current government.

Despite Herculean efforts to dumb us down by forcing us to accept globalist declarations that there is a consensus of scientists and therefore climate change science is settled, most of us know that there is no such thing as a “consensus” in science. Science is an unending search for truth; fact that can be verified through replication.

An "argument to the people" is a fallacious concept which concludes that a proposition must be true because many people believe it, often concisely encapsulated as: "If many believe so, it is so."

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau
Some members of the scientific community have sold their souls for income. Most members of the academic community have sold their souls to fame and glory. There is “no real critical thinking” in academia anymore.

Please take time to view two 12-minute videos:




Andrew Scheer has disappointed us so far, but the belated release of his costed platform indicates there is real fire beneath the election campaign fog.

On the other hand, we are painfully aware of Trudeau’s track record and most of us have an aversion to consorting with an unethical ideologue who disdains the rule of law.

NDP Sits on $61 Million With No Start Date for Burnaby Hospital

Phase 2 of Burnaby Hospital redevelopment  was green lit to go ahead in September 2023 The NDP spent $45 million on the Burnaby Hospital redevelopment, cancelled the second phase, and now has another $61 million listed for the project in the province’s Public Accounts, with no start date for construction. If the NDP cancelled the project, what is happening to the $61 million set aside for it? The Phase 2 project was expected to cost between $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion and was intended to expand the hospital’s capacity. With Burnaby’s population growing and residents struggling to access healthcare, the government should be investing in healthcare capacity, not leaving millions of dollars tied up in limbo. “The NDP spent $45 million on this project before cancelling it, and now $61 million remains listed for it in the Public Accounts,” said MLA Misty Van Popta, Shadow Minister for Infrastructure. “If the government isn’t going to build the hospital expansion, it should explain whe...

BC Conservatives Point to Warning Signs in BC’s Economy

While Canada posted modest job gains in July, warning lights are still flashing in British Columbia. Youth unemployment remains stubbornly high, leaving too many first-time jobseekers shut out of the workforce. BC also lost 3,400 public administration jobs in July, likely as temporary Census positions ended. “BC's jobs divide remains stark. Unemployment is far higher in business-driven communities like Kelowna (9.3%) and Abbotsford-Mission (8.3%) than in Victoria (5.0%). Government should be focused on creating the conditions for private-sector investment and job growth,” said Gavin Dew, MLA for Kelowna-Mission and Shadow Minister for Economic Development. “We need an economy where young people can find work, businesses can hire, and every region has the opportunity to prosper.” This comes as BC faces five straight quarters where more businesses are closing than opening, an NDP cabinet rift over job-creating projects like Tilbury LNG, and fresh signs that even the province's to...
