My Final Appeal to the Governor General












Dear GG, your Excellency etc etc.

Yesterday I wrote you a letter explaining why you should accept the reasonable demands of the Coalition for Change.

So I don't really want to bother you again. I know you must be having a terrible time trying to stop Stephen Harper from battering down your front door...or crawling in through the washroom window.

But the truth is even if I pull my tuque down over my eyes, I'm having trouble sleeping tonight thinking of what could happen tomorrow.

And to make matters worse I keep having this HORRIBLE nightmare where you give in to the crazy tyrant's demands and allow him to shutdown Parliament. Just to save himself. Just because some musty old tradition or colonial document told you so. And you didn't have the courage to just say NO.

That's when I wake up screaming. Eh?

So before I drink myself to sleep, I just want to make sure that you understand what a terrible mistake that would be. Not just for the country, but for YOU as well.

Now I realize you are the representative of the English Queen...a fact that I have to admit distresses me royally. But since you're a proud Canadian, and an amazing woman, I expect you to put the interests of your people FIRST.

And when an awesome Coalition for Change representing more than sixty per cent of Canadians is ready to govern, and a man as crazy and as evil as Stephen Harper has lost the confidence of the House, you must NOT allow him to padlock Parliament. And silence the opposition in a time of crisis.

You have seen dictatorships, you have seen countries tear themselves apart, you have seen great poverty and despair. Please don't condemn your people to suffer the same fate.

This your great moment in history where you get to choose between the noble interests of a majority of Canadians who want a chance to work together to save the country we love. And the base interests of a twisted bully of a tyrant who is only interested in saving himself, and is threatening to lead us all to DISASTER.

So please don't let your people down. Or take the easy way out.

Because if you do history won't forgive you and neither will we. In fact I promise that should the worst happen, I will spend the rest of my life....until the very last second of it... trying to convince Canadians to get rid of the monarchy and its USELESS representatives.

You can be a Canadian hero, or a Con tool and a royal BUM. Choose wisely your Excellency.

Good luck tomorrow. Eh?

Yours.

Simon.

Stephen Harper and The Canadian Rising















"In light of the government's failure to recognize the seriousness of Canada's economic situation and its failure in particular to present any credible plan to stimulate the Canadian economy … this House has lost confidence in this government and is of the opinion that a viable alternative government can be formed."

I've been staring at that Liberal motion for about five minutes. I can't quite believe it. Can Canada's long nightmare really be almost over? Can the foul neocon tyrant really be toppled?

I see Great Angry Leader knows he's just made the biggest mistake of his disgusting political career. And he's running for cover like a coward.

But it won't save him. Because the representatives of more than sixty per cent of the Canadian people have every right to bring down a government that would put its evil alien ideology before the lives of real people at a scary time like this one. And condemn millions to lives of MISERY.

And because these filthy RepubliCons are trying to kill Canadian democracy so they can turn our country into a jungle. And if tomorrow they don't succeed they'll try it again and again until they do. So they must be STOPPED if the Canada we love is to survive.

As you probably know I've always dreamed about a coalition or a united left, and I've always called Stephen Harper a MONSTER. Not just because he's raped our beautiful Canadian values...turned our Parliament into a fascist sewer....and disgraced us in the eyes of the world.

But above all because he's such a foul stinking BULLY. He can't help it. It's in his genes. And as a gay guy I hate bullies more than anything else in the world.

So tonight I just want to send out a message of encouragement to all the members of the Great Canadian Coalition, who could be about to make this gay boy's dream come true. Tell them not to be discouraged, or nervous, or afraid....but bold, decisive and BRAVE.

Because what they are doing is a great and wonderful thing. And Canada and future generations of Canadians will thank them FOREVER.

And I want to end with some musical encouragement, courtesy of the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus.

Rehearsing a song called My Rising Up from New World Waking....



Now we're rising up. Because enough is ENOUGH.

A New Canada is waking. Long live our beautiful country and the Great Canadian Coalition !!!!!

Down with the bully !!!!!


Down with the TYRANT !!!!
