“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

PECKFORD -- Now that he is going to stay, and not go to Barbados, what other ‘diction gems’ will be thrust upon us

Former Newfoundland Labrador
Premier Brian Peckford

Now we have it ...

... the answer was there all the time; ‘Infrastructure Disruptions’ and ‘Incident Response Team’

Sure ... how stupid are we?

Just call a committee (now there’s a Canadian word for you) an ‘Incident Response Team’, and the problem an ‘infrastructure disruption’, and presto, our protests and law breaking are almost over ... at least that’s what our Princeling (Justin Trudeau) is saying.

This is becoming so ridiculous, as the political correctness goes in overdrive. We have this excuse for a Prime Minister, who flies in from Senegal, to utter these words.

Now that he is going to stay, and not go to Barbados, what other ‘diction gems’ will be thrust upon us?  Our language will be greatly enhanced with his presence; you think?

Just ‘infrastructure disruptions’; is that right Mr. PM?

No, its not!


It is indigenous protests closing down large swaths of our railway system, and court injunctions being ignored, and announcements of people signalled to be laid off.

An ‘Incident Response Team’ ... can you believe it? Do you think ‘emergency’ should enter the picture? Perhaps even ‘crisis’?

Shouldn’t the full cabinet of the Government be involved? Or does the Cabinet really exist anymore, as it seems the Prime Ministers Office (PMO) rules everything these days.

Shouldn’t there be a designated debate in Parliament, about what’s happening in our country, as laws and injunctions are callously being violated?

Is this a Parliament Democracy?

Is this a representative and responsible form of Government?

One would think the lowly Members of Parliament from all sides of the House would get up enough courage to demand a debate in Parliament.

The week is not starting off very well.

NDP Government Blames Everyone but Themselves

The federal government has announced new measures to support British Columbia's forestry sector, including $65 million in funding for projects across the province. While any support is welcome, it falls far short of the level of assistance other provinces have secured for key industries. Conservative Forests Critic Ward Stamer says the NDP government needs to take responsibility for its mismanagement of B.C.’s forest industry instead of trying to pass on the blame. Despite promising to create more jobs in the forest sector, the NDP government has overseen the loss of thousands of forestry jobs and 21 mill closures which have devastated communities. “If Premier Eby spent more time addressing the regulatory issues impacting the forestry sector than he did complaining about the federal government, we would not be in the position we are now,” said Stamer. “And instead of trying to place the blame for mill closures on Donald Trump, Minister of Forests Ravi Parmar should t...

Tourists Rack Up $200M in Unpaid Health Bills While BC Patients Wait Years for Care

While British Columbians wait years for basic medical care, the NDP government has allowed non-residents to rack up $200.6 million in unpaid health bills since 2020-2021. New research from SecondStreet.org, obtained through a freedom of information request, revealed that people from outside Canada are coming to BC, receiving health services, and leaving without paying their bills.  The losses span every health region in the province. "British Columbians are not guaranteed timely access to healthcare, be it treatment or diagnostics, and this situation continues to deteriorate under the NDP," said Anna Kindy, MLA for North Island and Critic for Health. "Taxpayers are footing the bill for tourists' health treatments to the tune of over $200 million, enough to cover over 21,000 hip replacements in this province while British Columbians wait months to years for that surgery.” The research found BC has the worst record of any province in Canada examined so far. Under a dec...

NDP Finance Minister Given "F" on Report Card by Canadian Taxpayers Federation

Peter Milobar, MLA for Kamloops Centres and Official Opposition Finance Critic, released the following statement in response to the Canadian Taxpayers Federation's 2026 Finance Minister Report Card, which ranked BC Finance Minister Brenda Bailey dead last among provincial finance ministers in Canada with an overall grade of "F":  "British Columbians didn't need a report card to know things are headed in the wrong direction. They see it every time they pay their bills, try to buy a home, or watch another government deficit pile up. But now an independent national organization has confirmed that NDP Brenda Bailey is the worst-rated finance minister in Canada. "After nearly a decade of decline under this NDP government, British Columbia has become a province where people pay more, government borrows more, and families get less in return. We have some of the highest debt in the country, repeated credit downgrades, and no credible plan to get our finances back on...
