“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

THOUGHTS ON BC POLITICS AND MORE ... thank you for joining us each and every week


The year is near end ... and today, as likely my last post of 2019, I present a quick little ditty ....


‘Twas two days before Christmas,
And all through the land,
Scribes on their keyboards took the ‘ledge to hand
What about Andrew, and Horgan, and Andrew?
Sounds like a law firm; and what about lawyers?
Many don’t like ‘em, there's too many elected
But in a spirit of cheer, and goodwill to all men,
We’ll give them a break, so that they can reflect
And perhaps start the new year with mutual respect


Thank you for joining us here each and every week – each of us who participate with opinions and commentaries on the blog appreciate.  Stay tuned for the years top commentaries of 2019.  I’ll have them for you on what many who love in the Cariboo still call Wrestling Day ... January 2nd.

Merry Christmas, and may you enjoy Gods richest blessings through-out the new year ahead!

FORSETH: Bill 7 will strip away 150+ years of democratic representation. Tell me, what does that sound like to you?

Sadly, many people are completely unaware of what BC NDP Premier David Eby is doing in trying to ram through Bill 7 .  In a nutshell, he is taking our provincial government into authoritarian rule under the guise of needing to be able to react to attacks on our economy by Donald Trump. I ask the question, however …. “If this is REALLY necessary, then why is NO OTHER provincial or territorial government asking for the same powers?” Plain and simple, this is government over-reach, and an assault on the democratic process we have had in our provincial legislature since confederation – over one hundred and fifty years ago.  But you don’t have to take my word for it. Simply Google Bill 7 and read and see for yourself. Here's just a small sampling of what you’ll find: Times Colonist Editorial : Government's Bill 7 is a disgraceful overreach Bill 7, as drafted, basically gives Eby the power to do as he pleases, across almost the entire field of public policy, without any oversight or...
