“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

BRIAN PECKFORD – Can’t we have a cleaner more honest international effort?

Patty Hajdu -- Canada's
Health Minister

My God ... Our Health Minister (Patty Hajdu), Our Government

On CTV Power Play, host Evan Solomon asked Minister Hajdu some good questions.

Would her Government join US and Australia to investigate the relationship between China and the World Health Organization (WHO)?

She did not answer —she fudged it.

The Canadian Government will not criticize China, or the World Health Organization!

You can send us the virus, then send us defective personal protective equipment (PPE) to battle it, cozying up to WHO — but that’s not a problem. We won’t criticize this Communist state.

I guess given the Federal Government efforts not to meet Parliament, it should not be surprising that they have no problems supporting an autocratic state.

The Minister says we have to have an international effort.  Oh, the great straw man -- nobody says we don’t need an international effort, but does it have to be a corrupted WHO that is Chinese centric, that got it wrong on person to person transmission.

Can’t we have a cleaner more honest international effort?

How embarrassing to many Canadians that we have a Federal Government that will not even criticize a corrupt Communist State. I just have a hard time getting my head around this attitude. There are two Canadians in jail right now in China, on trumped up charges.


Oh, yes, Australia has criticized China -- and the World Health Organization -- and want an investigation.

What happened? China is now threatening Australia and will retaliate in trade. So, Canada is scared, and prepared to be bullied by tyrants.

Spineless Europe has already backed down ——

Is this my Country?

Conservative bill on prenatal and postnatal care in B.C. a rare opportunity for bipartisan co-operation

BC Conservative MLA Jody Toor is on the verge of accomplishing a rare feat: getting an opposition private member’s bill passed in the legislature. There have only been three non-government private member’s bills passed this century, all of which were proposed by then-Green leader Andrew Weaver in 2019 under his party’s confidence-and-supply agreement with the NDP. Toor’s bill, which aims to improve prenatal and postnatal care, would give the provincial government a year to craft a strategy to expand mental health care for new mothers throughout the province ...
