“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

FELDSTED -- This government has replaced safety and security with anxiety, fear and uncertainty

 

COMMENTARY REFERENCE
 

To build back better, we must reinvent capitalism ...

The pandemic has brought into focus many of the vulnerabilities in our systems and institutions.  But it also offers us a chance to shape a more resilient and sustainable world.

Here's how businesses and policy-makers can start building the green and inclusive future we need .....

We are to believe that by destroying capitalism that we can rebuild a more robust capitalism? Let's have these chaps share a little of whatever they are imbibing.

First, they convince our governments that the only way to combat a virus epidemic is to quarantine the entire population for an extended period. Most of the nation shut down with devastating effects on our economy, personal health and well-being.

Efforts to provide income replacement for people forced out of their livelihoods have been deliberately overly complicated, piecemeal and unfocused. Financial officers have spent hundreds of hours calculating and recalculating eligibility for wage subsidy programs with shifting regulations.

Never in history have democratic nations treated their populations as if they had neither rights nor freedoms. Stop and consider this for a moment. The World Health Organization's (WHO) approach to the COVID virus epidemic is a rejection of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Using the failed COVID epidemic response as an excuse for having incompetent idealists thrust a new economic order on us is disgusting. The notion that the World Economic Forum can concoct an economic model that will fit vastly different nations is ludicrous.

It is no accident that Justin Trudeau’s partner in crime, Gerald Butts, is heavily involved in this effort to subject us to the arbitrary rule of kings in place of democracy. We have to firmly and impolitely send Trudeau and his extended royal court off to the showers and allow others to make an honest attempt to bring order out of the chaos they have created.

The rule for the next election, which cannot come soon enough, is Do Not Re-elect (DNR).

There are a precious few Members of Parliament who have worked hard to rein in a corrupt, arrogant and failed government focused on image without substance. They have no coherent plan for bringing us the peace, order and good government demanded by our constitution.

This government has replaced safety and security with anxiety, fear and uncertainty.

If we refuse to re-elect incumbents, we stand a chance of rebuilding what they have taken from us – dignity, equality, freedoms, rights and security.

FORSETH -- Given the noted infractions of this agreement with OneBC leader Dallas Brodie, I request the Party immediate suspend the leadership campaign of Yuri Fulmer

I have personally emailed the following to the Board and Administration of the Conservative Party of BC:   TODAY (03/30) Yuri Fulmer, a candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of BC, made a pact with ONEBC leader Dallas Broldie, that if he is elected will commit the Conservative Party to the following. Specifically, the pact states : This Memorandum of Understanding outlines the definitive electoral and governing alliance that will be executed upon Yuri Fulmer’s election as Leader of the Conservative Party of British Columbia OneBC Party commits to not nominating or authorizing candidates in 88 of British Columbia’s 93 electoral districts. In exchange, the Conservative Party of BC, under the leadership of Yuri Fulmer, commits to not nominating or authorizing candidates in five (5) specific electoral districts . OneBC will be the sole standard-bearer for the right in those five districts. The specific ridings will be determined through mutual negotiation and fin...

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...

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...
