Another Canadian Gringo Locked Up Behind Bars In Mexico Claims He Is Innocent

March 15th, 2010No Comments

I didn’t and still don’t believe Brenda Martin about her “wrongful arrest and imprisonment” in Mexico, and I don’t believe for one second that this Pavel Kulisek character is as innocent as his wife is making him out to be from the garage of her home and sometimes  from downtown Vancouver , where she is [...]

So Canada, WTF Is Going On With The Beverly Giesbrecht Story

February 17th, 2010No Comments

Not that anybody outside of the Canadian government would know, but what the f*** is going on with Beverly Giesbrecht, the Canadian woman who after 9/11, converted to Islam to show those who doubted her that she really was sympathetic toward jihad and those leading that war.
Last I heard, and I wrote about it in [...]

Canadians In Trouble Down Under

December 23rd, 2009No Comments

A Canadian soldier on a furlough, a Canadian home-builder, and a Canadian skimmer have all made headlines in Australia this month, and for all the wrong reasons, though in all fairness to the home-builder he didn’t do anything illegal–his luck just ran out. The other two clowns though, well they are giving Canadians a bit [...]

Amanda Lindhout Freed

November 26th, 2009No Comments

After being held hostage in Somalia for the past 15 months, Canadian journalist Amanda Lindhout has been released, and short of plane crash on route to Canada, she should be safe in the arms of her family within days, perhaps even by this time tomorrow depending on how fast she is debriefed.
Having said that, I [...]

Hey Guys, Are You Your Wife’s Hero

September 22nd, 2009No Comments

When it comes to doing for my wife what I think she deserves having done for her, there isn’t much I wouldn’t do for her, including killing somebody if it got right down to it. I will do for my wife whatever it takes to keep her safe, and whenever possible, happy, the latter being [...]

So Who Did Suaad Haji Mohamud Rub the Wrong Way at the Canadian Embassy in Kenya

August 12th, 20091 Comment

I knew about the story of a Canadian woman trapped in Kenya, because her photo in the four-year-old Canadian passport she was holding didn’t exactly match up to the woman holding the passport, but I really didn’t think anything of it because I assumed that the Canadian government would sort it all out. Today I [...]

Lawyer for Convicted Terrorist Needs to Get Off the Drugs

August 7th, 2009No Comments

Is legal laughing stock Lorne Waldman on drugs or what?  The reason I ask is that for some reason he seems to think that he can compel the Canadian government to do something about the fate Bashir Makhtal has met in Ethiopia.
What does Waldman want the feds to do you might be asking (but probably [...]

When it Comes to Pavel Kulisek, You Would Think Brenda Martin Would Rise Up on His Behalf…Wouldn’t You?

June 8th, 2009No Comments

She ain’t though
So why aren’t people in Canada making as much of a fuss about Pavel Kulisek as they did when Brenda Martin was locked up behind bars in Mexico? Seriously, how is Kulisek’s case any different than Martin’s?
Gee, you would think that the same people that jumped on Martin’s bandwagon would do the same [...]

So Whatever Happened to Kidnap Victim Khadija, Beverly Or Whatever Her Name Is

May 24th, 2009No Comments

The shit has really hit the fan in Pakistan hasn’t it? I say it’s about bloody time the Pakistani government grew a backbone and finally took the fight to the Taliban, who if it weren’t for cowardly Pakistani government officials, wouldn’t have gained even the slightest of footholds along the northern border of Pakistan.
Last, I [...]

Health Officials Preventing Canadian Woman on Life Support From Getting Treatment in Canada

April 27th, 2009No Comments

You know, when it comes to BS in Canada, civil servants, doctors, lawyers, bureaucrats, and elected MPs and MPPs are so full of it, their effin’ eyes have turned brown. They almost always seem to come up with some asinine reason for doing and saying the effed up things they do, or for getting [it] [...]

Thinking about a Taliban Whore and President Karzai

April 18th, 2009No Comments

Seventeen days have passed since Beverly Giesbrecht’s ransom due by date expired, and there really isn’t much about being said about it in the Canadian media.
The bloggers have had a little bit to say.
There’s one from the University of Nebraska-Omaha who has weighed in with his/her opinion. That person is a real idiot.
After reading the [...]

Fox News Picks Up On Beverly Giesbrecht Kidnapping Story

April 7th, 2009No Comments

I stand corrected. The videotaped ransom demand for Beverly Giesbrecht release that fell into the hands of the Globe and Mail demands payment of 2 million rupees, not $2 million dollars as the news article I source for my article on that demand.
Two million rupees, in case anybody is wondering, amounts to about $US25, 000.00.  [...]

Two Canadian Women Busted For Drugs in the Wrong Country

April 7th, 20091 Comment

The other day I published an article in Crooked in Canada about a 71-year-old Canadian woman getting busted in Jamaica trying to smuggle 3.6 kilograms of herb out of the country, and a 114-year-old Nigerian man busted with 6.5 tonnes of marijuana that he claims is his.
I had a little fun at their expense.
So it’s [...]

Omar Khadr’s Legal Team Gets Boost

April 6th, 200911 Comments

Like a herd of black reindeer coming towards me in a Canadian snowstorm, you have to know I saw this coming.
So what the eff am I talking about you are probably wondering.
Omar Khadr’s lawyer has been fired, kicked to the kerb, sent to the stockade, and I reckon it’s about time.
Lt.-Cmdr. Bill Kuebler should have [...]

Off With His Head Then, Another Canadian on Death Row Has His Hopes Dashed

April 3rd, 2009No Comments

This has not been a good week for Canadians sitting on death row.
First Ronald Smith learned that the State of Montana voted not to abolish the death penalty, and that decision has pretty much crushed any hopes he had of having his death sentence commuted and being returned to Canada.
By the way, I think Smith’s [...]

Beverly Giesbrecht is yanking Canada’s chain

After publishing the story about the ransom demand being made for a “Canadian journalist” (teehee-I have to laugh because Beverly Giesbrecht aka Khadija Abdul Qahaar isn’t what one would consider a “qualified journalist”) I thought I would visit her website Jihad Unspun just to see what it is all about.

Video Demanding $2 Million For Kidnapped Canadian Who Converted to Islam Sent to Globe and Mail

March 21st, 2009No Comments

Off with her head then.  That’s what I am thinking. But only because I think she is running a scam.

Islamic convert Beverly Giesbrecht is out of her mind if she thinks a video, in which she is claiming she will be beheaded by months end, is fooling anybody.
The woman is a nut job, and as [...]

An Appeal For Clemency For Mohamed Kohail But No More For Ronald Smith

December 29th, 20081 Comment

Here’s something that doesn’t make any sense whatsoever, especially since the Tory government has said previously that it would not intervene on behalf of Canadians facing the death penalty in the U.S., they are tempted to intervene on behalf of two brothers in Saudi Arabia who were involved in fight that saw another man murdered.
Why [...]

Could Beverly (Khadija Abdul Qahaar) Giesbrecht’s Kidnapping in Pakistan Be A Jihad Scam

November 19th, 20089 Comments

After an al-Qaeda terrorist cell flew a couple of hijacked jets into the World Trade Center in New York a Canadian woman, Beverly Giesbrecht from British Columbia, converted to Islam. Until now I didn’t know she existed.
If it wasn’t for the headline grabbing news story that Giesbrecht, a Canadian citizen who now goes by the [...]

Canadian Prosecutor Who Brought Down British Columbia Government Arrested In Cayman Islands Corruption Probe

September 30th, 2008No Comments

I don’t know what goes through a Supreme Court justice’s head most of the time, but given that there is a lot empty space between their ears when it comes to interpreting laws as they are written, you would think that there was enough room between their ears for common sense to fit in. Sadly [...]
