“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

RUSTAD - Shame on politicians, environmental groups and shysters who are scaring children for their own ends


Short and sweet.  Nechako Lakes MLA John Rustad captures the thoughts of many in just 131 words



There's an issue that has been bugging me for some time but a meeting this week has brought me to this statement:

Children around the world are expressing a fear that the world is about to end due to global warming. In a meeting this week a school age child stated the world is about to end with a slight crack in their voice.

Shame on politicians, environmental groups and shysters who are scaring children for their own ends. It disgusts me to think that these people believe the ends justify the means.

Children unable to sleep, having nightmares and trying to map a future without hope. Absolutely unacceptable.

The environment is an issue. It needs to be addressed. But scaring children to further an end is absolutely wrong and unacceptable.

FORSETH: Without a strong local presence, there is NO reason for anyone to tune in to local(?) radio

LOCAL HOMETOWN RADIO IS DYING … and without serious measures put in place, it will likely never see the light of day again. For well over four decades, the Canadian Radio and Television Commission (CRTC) has presided over its’ demise, and for that I say, “Shame”. Without out a word to say enough was enough, the CRTC has allowed corporate Canada to buy up one radio station after the other, and then allowed them to slash staff to the point where some so-called local radio stations do nothing more than air programming that originates from communities well outside the region in which they are located. Case in point?   On CHNL* 610 in Kamloops, the morning show hosted by Vinnie and Randi, DOES NOT originate from Kamloops -- it doesn’t even originate here in BC. It’s a program that Stingray airs across multiple radio stations in Western Canada. It doesn’t end there. Not only are Vinnie and Rando doing mornings on CHNL, but they also show up on sister station Country 103 … and of course o...

CTV: Year-end interview with John Rustad on BC Conservatives' remarkable 2024

It’s been quite the year for BC Conservative Leader John Rustad – his party soaring from less than two per cent of the popular vote and no seats in the 2020 election to nearly winning this year’s election ... ... He insists he’ll support free votes by his members – and what sets his party apart is its willingness to allow such free speech. “That’s a big thing that you’ll see between us and the NDP – you will never see them say anything outside of their message box,” said Rustad. “And that’s not how I want to do politics. I actually think it’s OK to have differences, it's OK for people to disagree. But we do agree on the big things, the things that are important for the people of British Columbia"...
