Crooked in Canada

From the Oxford Dictionary-renew: restore to original state; revive; replace with fresh thing; get, make or give again. Liberal MP Ruby Dhalla says that there wasn’t a discussion over drinks at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier in British Columbia last week about ousting Liberal leader;  that she, Bob Rae, Carolyn Bennet and Glen Pearson were only [...]

Mohammar Gaddafi (that’s how I am spelling his name today, so f*** off) is making a trip into Newfoundland next week is he? Wow lucky for Gander, and what a great opportunity to for somebody to put an end to that guy’s life. I’m thinking RPG, aircraft, jet, and big explosion, or maybe radio chatter, [...]

You know, there is a side to immigration that isn’t splashed across the news of the world, the “happy story.” Far too often, the news about immigration that is blaring out of our plasmas TVs, car radios, and home stereos is that of the bad kind. Well I’m here to tell you both sides. First [...]

Here is a little heads up for any family or youth court judge who thinks sending a troubled, or an ‘in distress’ child to a group home run by BOSCO Homes is a good idea, “Don’t effing do it! It ain’t a good plan your honour. Really it isn’t.” There is nothing conducive to any [...]

Getting the truth out of politicians, past and present, is like pulling teeth. Think about it, does anybody really think a politician giving testimony in any inquiry is going to give up a mate, or say something that might incriminate them under oath? Like let’s be real. On a scale of 1 to 10 how [...]

Just passing on my thoughts people. I am not an expert on any of the topics in today’s Crooked in Canada article. What I think  about AIG, Obama’s handling of economic crisis, and U.S. bailout, and whatever else I can think of The stupidest thing I read this morning about something said by somebody else [...]

I’m not a big fan of Canada going to war, nor do I like the idea that every time the Americans want to take up arms for democracy, they expect what is supposed to be a “civilized world,” to stand with them. At the end of the day though there’s no denying that there is [...]

As is every other industrialized country in the civilized world, times are tough for the economy and survival of big name corporations in the U.S. In fact, times are so tough that according to “economic experts” we are in the midst of a global economic meltdown, like the U.S. hasn’t seen since the Great Depression.

Back in May Maclean’s published an article given their thoughts on how British Columbia managed to become an international crime super power. The article offers an interesting point of view, one that has more merit than any reason I could ever come up with and spin, but at the end of the day British Columbia [...]

After issuing a veiled threat last week that forcing an election this fall was on the Liberal agenda once Parliament reconvenes in September, Stephane Dion has backed off from following through on his threat with the following statement he made on Question Period, “An election will come between now and October 2009.” Obviously by making [...]

Is it any wonder kids are disrespecting authority and committing crime more and more these days? When I was a kid growing up I was punished for disrespecting my parent’s authority and for getting into enough trouble in the community that the police had to bring me home and/or charge me under the juvenile delinquency [...]

With a population of 30+ plus million people in Canada, it is realistic to assume a that people will have a wide range of opposing view about various topics. One such topic is capital punishment. The other day I came across a news article on the CTV website and in that article it stated that [...]

Australia’s former foreign affairs minister is talking about using force to deliver aid to cyclone victims in Burma, and I for one happen to agree with Alexander Downer, though I don’t think it would take too much might to force one’s will on the Burmese government. Contrary to what others might think, I don’t think [...]

The federal government is dicking around when it comes to Sudanese-Canadian stranded in the Canadian embassy in Khartoum, and as far as I’m concerned there isn’t any reason, or amount of red-tape to cut through to have Abousfian Abdelrazik repatriated. What is the f**king hold up? He isn’t a wanted criminal in Canada, he isn’t [...]

I don’t know what is with the insurgents in Iraq and the Taliban taking on NATO forces in Afghanistan, but it seems to me that if they want foreign troops out of their respective countries, then maybe they should stop killing and talking religious shit. The more of our soldiers they kill, the longer the [...]

If it wasn’t for the fact that Paul Bernardo is a sadistic serial killer, I’d be amused by the fact that anybody would even consider giving the sick f**k a shot at parole. He has a better chance of being moved to a minimum-security prison like the one in Mission, BC than he does of [...]

FYI: Ray Curry claims to be Brenda Martin’s cousin. Up until he posted his thoughts in the comments section, I had no idea who he was, or that he even existed. That being said, today I am taking the opportunity to let Mr. Curry know that I am acknowledging him and his point of view [...]

When Allah said brains, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad must have thought his God said trains, and he decided to wait for the next one. The Iranian president isn’t running on a full tank of gas if he thinks the September 11 attacks was a suspect event. Given his latest comments on the 9/11 attack on [...]

In what I would say is a very stupid move, a judge has released a Brian Mulroney’s worst nightmare Karlheinz Schrieber, on bail. The crooked financier, businessman or whatever the hell you want to call him, was released from Toronto’s Metro West Dentention Centre this past Wednesday. For the life of me I have no [...]
