Ezra Levant vs Liberal MP Gurbax Singh Malhi

Kudo's to Sun Media! Brian Lilley has called out Lib MP Gurbax Singh Malhi when he responded to a column that  Ezra wrote earlier in the week stating that Malhi supported the Tamil Tigers.  He claims Ezra has the facts wrong about a rally that he spoke at earlier this year.
OTTAWA - An MP who stood in a sea of Tamil Tiger flags and listened as protesters chanted “Tamil Tiger, freedom fighter” is striking back at columnist Ezra Levant.
Liberal MP Gurbax Singh Malhi says a column that ran in QMI Agency newspapers earlier this week by Levant “misrepresents the facts in suggesting that I support the Tamil Tigers, when my allegiance is to the protection of human rights of individuals around the world.”
In a letter to the editor, Malhi stated that he has spoken out against violations of human rights wherever they have occurred around the world.
“Also note that the event at which I was present and that is mentioned in the column was actually a Tamil-Canadian community rally,” Malhi wrote.
Levant, in a column under the headline, End refugee free-for-all, had questioned why Tamils fleeing Sri Lanka were being treated as refugees when the United Nations does not.
“Let’s ask Gurbax Singh Malhi, a Liberal MP who spoke at a Tamil Tiger rally on Parliament Hill last March, surrounded by the terrorist group’s flags and portraits of Prabhakaran,” wrote Levant.
Here is the video that Brian Lilley posted with  his column with Malhi standing at Parliament Hill at a Tamil Tiger rally speaking in support of their cause. 



Tamil-Canadian community rally?  Right! Was it really?  Take note of the Tamil Tiger flags in the video.  Did he not notice the terrorist flags when speaking at that event?  Don't tell me he didn't.
Me thinks either Mr. Malhi is not exactly tell the truth, he's using revisionist history or he didn't do his homework before he attended that rally.  Gurbax, should maybe  go back and take a look at that video.
It might trigger his memory. That facts in that video speak for them selves   It clearly shows him lending his support to the group.   In any case he's wrong in his response to Era's column.


 Ezra Levant-1,  Lib MP Gurbax Malhi-0!   Thanks to Brian Lilley and Sun Media for bring this to light!

Compassion, How Far Should It Go?

The Liberals and Paul Dewar NDP MP both say the government should show "more compassion" where the Tamil migrants are concerned.
Earlier in the day, the federal Liberals called on the government to show more compassion and to “lower the tone” on the possibility that some of the Tamil refugee claimants might be criminals or terrorists with links to the banned Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam.
NDP MP Paul Dewar said the government should focus on helping Sri Lanka to rebuild after a long civil war, instead of trying to block Tamils from entering Canada.
PM Harper has vowed to take a tough stand against illegals.  
This time, Ottawa is taking a tougher stand on illegal arrivals, with Prime Minister Stephen Harper Prime vowing to stop the flow of ship-borne migrants to Canadian shores, saying he will “not hesitate to strengthen the laws if we have to.”
“Canadians are pretty concerned when a whole boat of people comes – not through any normal application process, not through any normal arrival channel – and just simply lands,” Mr. Harper said at a news conference in Mississauga, Ont., on Tuesday.
David Warren aptly expresses that "compassion" as public policy is nearly always a fraud.
As a public policy, "compassion" is nearly always a fraud; and I have inserted the word "nearly" only in case I think of an exception after filing this column. I can't think of one now.
He then goes on to state what "compassion" for the Tamils mean for the Liberals.
 We are lucky, for the moment, to have a party in power that owes nothing to the Tamil Tigers. For the Liberals, the sham of "compassion" extended to fundraising events with their goons, and the settled party understanding that any large, fairly desperate, and culturally exotic pool of welfare-propending immigrants will make reliable Liberal voting fodder. Hence side-splitting expostulations of compassion.
Brian Lilley says how that "compassion" can be deadly. 
Canadians outraged over the queuejumping boat filled with would-be refugees are being told to be a bit more compassionate, to open their hearts.Unfortunately, the type of compassion being advocated could get someone killed.
L.Ian Macdonald clearly states that these Tamil migrants are taking advantage of our "compassion" jumping the que and suggests we invoke the Notwithstanding Clause.
It is quite another for human traffickers to make a mockery of Canada's territorial and political sovereignty. Nor can there be any doubt that this is a test case or a probe of Canada's capacity to fend off rogue ships before they reach our shores. And Public Safety Minister Vic Toews has warned that two more ships might already be in the water bound for Canada. Apparently, the first and only line of defence is to stop these ships before they ever leave their home ports. We would have to rely on the Sri Lankans for that. Criminal sanctions could also be considered against Tamils living in Canada who can be proved to have sent money home to bring relatives here illegally. And then there is the notwithstanding clause of the Constitution - it's there for a reason, use it or lose it.
Yes let's have compassion but only for those who are truly refugees. We cannot solve the world's problems, we have enough problems of our own.  What about compassion for our own.  Let's have compassion for our security and sovereignty.  What about our own that are living on the street, the elderly, and our veterans?  Above all,please, let's not allow our selves to taken advantage of.

Support MP Candice Hoeppner to Scrap the Long Gun Registry

Candice Heoppner has launched a new website to promote her coast to coast tour to scrap the long gun registry that doesn't work and has wasted  huge amounts of taxpayer money.
Portage-Lisgar M.P. Candice Hoeppner has launched a new website promoting a summer tour by the M.P. to ridings across the country to rally support for her private member’s bill to end the long-gun registry. In order for the bill to survive the next vote in the House of Commons, she must retain the support of the 20 opposition members who supported it at second reading.
Mr. Iffy has vowed to whip his members into voting against it at  the third and final reading even though eight of his members  before voted  in favor of Candice's bill.  Same with the Dippers. Twelve had voted to scrap it but now apparently some are changing their minds.
Liberal leader Michael Ignatieff has indicated he will whip the Liberal caucus vote, while earlier this month, N.D.P. Justice Critic Joe Comartin suggested that some of the N.D.P. members who originally supported Hoeppner’s legislation may now be changing their minds.
Go and visit Candice's new Scrap the Long Gun Registry website.  It's very well done.  Pressure your Liberal and NDP members who are wavering to vote in favor of finally scrapping the over bearing, overly costly long gun registry. Pressure the leaders and whips to allow a free vote.  The final vote will be coming up shortly after the house resumes in September on the 22nd.   Free the law abiding farmers and duck hunters!  Start the pressure now!

We Must Take Our Country Back

We have a real conundrum on our hands with the "so called Tamil migrant  refugees" docking on our shores.  First of all they are no migrants they are que-jumpers with possible ties to the terrorist group, the Tamil Tigers, LTTE. 
First of all, let's drop the "migrant" bunkum. It's meaningless left-wing political claptrap.
Call the 490 Tamil "migrants," now being processed in British Columbia because of our over-accommodating and therefore outdated refugee policies, something more reflective of what they truly are.
Like queue-jumpers, scam artists, back-door home invaders, plus a terrorist or two.
It's clearly obvious they are trying to take advantage of us because we are suckers.  We are really soft on immigration and asylum seekers.
Many Canadians would have preferred that we intercept their ship and send them back from whence they came but according to some we can't because of international law.  OK, but then we have a certain supreme court ruling that has said we must give migrants like these charter rights but according to Ezra Levant, that rule does not hold water. 
A tie vote at the Supreme Court 25 years ago doomed us to accept the ship of 490 Tamils that arrived in Victoria last week.
In a 1985 case called Singh v. Minister of Employment and Immigration, the court ruled that our Charter of Rights applied to foreigners, not just Canadian citizens.
Foreigners overseas could now use the Charter to enforce their “rights” against our country.
The six judges hearing that case were split on the subject, three against three. But a tie is broken by the Chief Justice. So one, unelected man changed Canada’s immigration system, granting foreigners the right to sue their way into our country, from wherever they might be in the world.
Some suggest that the PM  should use the not withstanding clause within the Charter in this case.  Maybe, but something has to be done in any case.  This cannot go on.  I think the PM should recall parliament immediately to get this headache dealt with. Introduce a bill that would prevent this from happening again. Make it a confidence measure and if need be take it to the people and let us decide.  This would be an issue to take into an election. Our country is at stake. We must not allow those who are not citizens to dictate to us.  
I am so sick and tired of being taken advantage of and scammed.  We must be careful who we allow into our house. We cannot be the dumping ground of the world. We must bombard our MPs,Senators the PM, the Minister of Immigration,  the Minister of Public Safety and the opposition leaders to let them know of our displeasure and demand something be done like yesterday.  Something with teeth that would not allow this kind of thing to happen again.

BTW. Forgive me for not posting the last couple days, I injured my right hand. The lid of the BBQ suddenly came slamming down on my hand the other day while I was checking on the fish that my husband had started BBQing.  It was swollen a bit and sore for awhile but it's better now nothing broken, just bruised a bit and a little tender.  I mustn't have lifted the lid the way I guess.

Other Provinces Consider Rolling the Dice

Alberta and Saskatchewan are considering online gaming after BC and Ontario recently started their online gambling sites.  BC had to immediately shut down theirs do to technical problems.

Online gambling would surely be a cash cow for cash strapped provinces but what about people who have gambling problems?  Gambling addiction has ruined careers, families, and lives.  Are our provincial governments so money hungry they are willing for gamblers risk all that is really important in life?   Then you and I have to pay to look after those addicts.

Yeah, yeah it will be controlled yada, yada, yada  but it just  doesn't sit well with  me. How about you?
