“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

Liberals are stuck, and would rather sacrifice the economy and the common citizen, while they "virtue signal" the rest of the population stating how "important" it is to talk

Blockade in Toronto this morning (Twitter)

As people continue to protest, blockade, and shut down access to both public and private property, I thought I would provide a few thoughts from now retired (after 25 years of service) RCMP officer Kurt Peats ...


What the protestors are doing is illegal - full stop.

Consider however, that all chiefs of police are political appointments (either municipal, provincial or federal).  Further, all RCMP senior officers serve at the pleasure of the federal government. Their next promotion depends on the government.

The "rule of law" only applies to some people,
some of the time, and if you support the cause,
well then you'll get a pass.

That is why no police will take action as they do not want to upset their political masters. The Feds in turn can blame the police for not taking action and state ...  "Let's let the police do their job...it's their call." As a result, the federal government walks away unscathed as the general population mostly believes the government.

The Liberals support base has many First Nations peoples, and environmentalists, and it would be fair to believe they do not want to upset the base, and chase them over to the Greens.

The Liberals are stuck, and would rather sacrifice the economy and the common citizen, while they "virtue signal" the rest of the population stating how "important" it is to talk ... and to respect each other... and to understand how we got here.... and whatever other platitude they want to throw in.

No one is fooled ... and everyone knows the game ... leaving those not in government, or protesting, rightly upset that a handful of people have been able to hold the rest of the country hostage because of Liberal idealization.

And the lesson learned for the protesters?  They can do want they want, and there will be little to no consequences.

The "rule of law" only applies to some people, some of the time, and if you support the cause, well then, you'll get a pass.

Kurt Peats retired from the RCMP in 2011 after serving 25 years with the Force.  He and his wife make their home in Dawson Creek. In 2013 he ran as a BC Conservative candidate in Peace River South.

FORSETH -- Focus on the nine things I mentioned. That’s what will allow the Conservative Party to win the next election

IMAGE CREDIT:   Darryl Dyck, the Canadian Press. I thought I had already made up my mind who I would be ranking on my ballot, in the Conservative Party of BC leadership race; now I am not so sure.  That means that, at least for me, and perhaps many others, it’s a good thing voting hasn’t already taken place. There were initially only one or two of the candidates that I thought might be a little too right of centre for my liking, now it seems that list is growing. I consider myself more closely aligned with what used to be called a Progressive Conservative, regardless, I feel more than comfortable within the Conservative Party of BC.  Some, however, in messages to me on my political Facebook page, have been rather, shall we say, a bit mean-spirited in comments they’ve made about my ‘purity’ as a conservative. To tell you the truth, I really don’t care! Some leadership candidates, in comments made online, have also been raising the issue of who is a pure enough conservati...

WARD STAMER -- Those are REAL forestry numbers, not just made-up numbers

The following is a condensed version of remarks Kamloops – North Thompson MLA Ward Stamer’s made, regarding Forestry, in the BC Legislature, on Tuesday afternoon (02/24/2026)   Let’s talk a little bit, when we talk about Budget 2026, about the forest industry, which is near and dear to my heart. Forestry remains one of British Columbia’s foundational industries. It’s a pillar that built this province. Entire communities depend upon it. Interior towns, northern communities, Vancouver Island regions, the Kootenays, the Lower Mainland, with manufacturing facilities in Surrey and Maple Ridge, just to name a few — everywhere in BC is touched by forestry. One word that was not mentioned in Budget 2026 was forestry. That’s a shame, an incredible shame. It wasn’t an oversight – it was intentional. This government has driven forestry into the ground .... INTO THE GROUND! We can talk a little bit about some of the initiatives that this government has brought forth, to try to resurrect ...

Your government has a gambling problem (Troy Media)

Provinces call it “revenue,” but it looks a lot like exploitation of the marginalized The odds of winning Lotto Max are about 1 in 33 million. You’re statistically more likely to be struck by lightning than to win it. But your government is betting that statistics won’t hold you back; they’re counting on it. Across Canada, provincial governments not only regulate gambling, they also maintain a monopoly on lottery and gaming by owning and operating the entire legal market. That means every scratch card is government-issued, gambling odds are government-set, casino ads are government-funded and lottery billboards are government-paid. And these are not incidental government activities. They generate significant revenues that governments have powerful incentives to expand, not constrain. It would be one thing for our governments to encourage us to engage in healthy activities. We can quibble about whether the government should be trying to convince us to be more active or eat more vegetabl...
