Al Gore, Give It Up!

Seems like Al Gore has crawled out from underneath his rock. He's at again, blaming all the blizzards, snowstorms rainy and windy weather in the North East US on guess what? That's right, global warming.

If there’s a drought – it’s global warming. When there’s a hurricane – it’s global warming. If there are heavy snows or even blizzards – it’s somehow global warming. And amazingly, the latest round of rainy and windy weather in the Northeast, well that’s consistent with this phenomenon as well, so says former Vice President Al Gore.

Gore, the self-anointed climate change alarmist-in-chief, told supporters on a March 15 conference call that severe weather in certain regions of the country could be attributed to carbon in the atmosphere – including the recent rash of rainy weather. h/t businessandmedia.org

He's still trumpeting his message even though everyday more and more evidence keeps mounting proving that global warming is a scam. He mustn't have gotten the memo.

Give it up Gore! There are fewer and fewer people paying attention to you anymore! Go back under your rock!

Should Canada Post Be Privatized?

The OECD has recommended that Canada Post be privatized to boost productivity. I concur. We would most likely get better service as a result. It would operate a lot more efficiently because you wouldn't have a bunch of government bureaucrats running the show.

The Canadian government should privatize Canada Post as part of a broader plan to improve the nation's economic productivity, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development said in a report yesterday. Montreal Gazette

I think CBC should be privatized too. It sucks up more than $1bill. of taxpayers money every year. Those funds could be put to more worthwhile causes, like helping to rebuild Haiti for instance. Besides who watches it anymore, other than Hockey Night in Canada and Dragons Den?

If the leftys want it, let them pay for it! I don't want to keep paying for a network that 's just an arm of the Liberal and the Dippers war rooms.

BTW. Via Rail has been a losing proposition as well. Do something about that too.

Freedom and Liberty

I believe in a very limited government and the freedom to allow the people the freedom to create, innovate,and to conduct business with little taxes and regulation. I believe individuals should be allowed to protect themselves and their families. I believe parents should have the freedom to raise their children they way they see fit. I believe in free speech, the right to offend,and the right to be offended.
As I was just surfing around the internet I came across this video on Liberty and Freedom.It sums it very well. I only wish more people would get it.




Some of our freedoms have eroded away over the years. We cannot allow further erosion.

What comes to immediately comes to mind is free speech and the HRCs.
We need to fight for elimination of at least Section 13 of Human Rights Act if not the Human Rights Commissions and Tribunals in their entirety. We need to apply the pressure on all MPs to take action and not take no for an answer. Maybe we should try tea parties to apply pressure.

"A society that puts equality ... ahead of freedom will end up with neither ... " -- Milton Friedman

"Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and lost it, have never known it again." -- Ronald Reagan

"Liberty means responsibility. That is why most men dread it."-- George Bernard Shaw, Maxims for Revolutions, 1903

“Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it.” --Justice Learned Hand, 1944

"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."----
John 8:32 (King James Version)

"The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."
Thomas Jefferson

Liberals, Are You Sure You Want Those Docs Released?

Me thinks the detainee issue is about to come back and bite the Liberals in the rear ends. Sure you really want those documents released Libs? Still want that public inquiry, Mr. Iffy? Hmm........... maybe the PM should call one after all.

Government releases terms of Afghan detainee review

The federal Justice Minister on Saturday released the terms of reference for the former Supreme Court justice reviewing the issue of detainees in Afghanistan.

Frank Iacobucci will conduct an independent review of documents related to the politically contentious issue of detainees and give the minister recommendations on which documents could be made public.

Iacobucci will provide recommendations to Justice Minister Rob Nicholson as to whether information would be injurious to Canada's international relations, national defence or national security and whether any such information should nevertheless be released because the public interest in disclosure outweighs the public interest in non-disclosure. He will prepare a report on his methodology and general findings for public release.

"This will ensure that parliamentarians will have access to the relevant government information on the arrangements for the transfer of detainees in Afghanistan while ensuring there is no injury to Canada's national defence, international relations or national security," Justice Minister Rob Nicholson said Saturday in a news release.

The former justice was appointed last Friday to review the secret documents related to the handling of Afghan prisoners.

The opposition parties passed a motion last December seeking access to those documents, but the Conservative government has so far refused to hand over the documents to Parliament.

Iacobucci will review all relevant documents relating to the Afghan detainee scandal back to 2001, when Canada's mission in Afghanistan began, according to the terms of reference of his review.

The opposition parties have been demanding to see his terms of reference since the retired justice was appointed last week.

Iacobucci is to begin his review immediately and although no deadline has been set, the government expects it will be a relatively short review.

"As an independent and impartial adviser with significant expertise and experience in this area, Mr. Iacobucci will provide our Government with valuable advice," Nicholson said.

Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff repeated his call for a full public inquiry in Question Period this week, saying: "Justice Iacobucci will not be empowered to do his job adequately, unless the government gives him the mandate to hold a full public inquiry." CTV

Forty Inconvenient Truths

A British National Party EU MP sums up climategate quite nicely, right here.

Take note of the last sentence on the site, I think is extremely important and something we should seriously think about.

"The threat to national sovereignty and the prosperity of all in the developed world from the United Nations cannot be overstated."

With the exception of Maxime Bernier, I wish more of our global warming denier politicians (I know they're out there) would speak out against that hoax.
