The Monstrous Ambrose Cons Go After Justin Trudeau's Mother



I don't know how much lower Rona Ambrose and her monstrous Cons can sink, when they are already wallowing in their own excrement at the bottom of the pit of depravity.

But just in the last few days they have managed to crush the dreams of the dying Liberal MP Mauril Belanger.

They've gone after Justin Trudeau's children.

And now they're going after his mother.

The Heroic and Very Canadian Struggle to Save Fort McMurray



When I saw the pictures of what the fire they called The Beast had done to Fort McMurray, at first I was shocked by the devastation.

Stunned at the sight of so many houses and hopes and memories reduced to ashes by its raging fury.

But then I was amazed to see how much of Fort Mac had been saved, almost ninety percent.

Now We Know Who Paid For Stephen Harper's Trip to Las Vegas



It took a few days until we found out what Stephen Harper was doing in this massive mansion in Last Vegas last month.

Until a U.S. magazine revealed he was working for the billionaire Sheldon Adelson and his  Republicans. 

On Thursday evening, Adelson hosted some of the organization’s top officials at his palatial mansion. While former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper discussed how fractured parties can unite.

And Harper tweeted this:


But last now we know who paid for that trip.

Donald Trump and the Republican Civil War



I've finally decided that I'm going to have to settle back comfortably in my hammock, take a deep breath, remind myself it's almost summer, and start enjoying the Donald Trump Show.

Like I would enjoy a Broadway musical.

Or go as crazy as the Americans.

Especially now that I'm pretty sure that Herr Hair Drumph will end up destroying the Republican Party.

The Panama Papers: Now You Can Help Track Down Tax Cheats



All over the world today some of its richest people are quivering in their boots.

Because for over a month hundreds of journalists have been digging through the so-called Panama Papers, the more than 11.5 leaked documents from the Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca.

Documents that have exposed how the wealthy are stashing their money in offshore tax havens. So they can become richer while whole countries and billions of people become poorer.

And today is the day the names of many of those possible tax dodgers will be revealed.

The Monstrous Cons Go After the Trudeau Children Again



I suppose I shouldn't be surprised at their latest atrocity.

Not after the way Rona Ambrose's cruel Cons treated the dying Liberal MP Muril Belanger.

But still it shocks me, and makes me wonder whether they are humans or beasts.

Because believe it or not the Cons are going after the Trudeau children again.

Rescuing the Abandoned Pets of Fort McMurray



When I saw all those people trying to escape the fire they're now calling The Beast, I tried to imagine how they must have been feeling.

Not only having to flee their homes, and worry whether they'd still be there when they returned.

But also in many cases having to leave their pets behind.

The Ghastly Con Cheryl Gallant Embarrasses Herself Again



OMG. What are we going to do with the monstrous Con Cheryl Gallant? She just keeps embarrassing herself.

Two months ago she used the memory of the murdered soldier Cpl. Nathan Cirillo to peddle her giant Easter hams at a fundraising event.

Two weeks ago she accused the Liberals of killing our soldiers in Afghanistan by selling off our Chinook helicopters. When it was actually the Mulroney government who sold the helicopters.

And now she's done it again.

The Dying MP and the Cruelty of the Cons



There couldn't have been a more moving scene in the House of Commons.

Liberal MP Mauril Belanger, who is dying of ALS, trying to get MPs to approve his bill to make our anthem more gender neutral.

But even though the bill has the support of most MPs, and it is the cause of his life.

The Cons did their best to make sure that he doesn't live to see it pass.

The Muslim Mayor Of London and the Return of Lynton Crosby



His name is Sadiq Khan, he's just made history, and struck a big blow for decency over bigotry.

By being elected as the first Muslim mayor of London.

Sadiq Khan has been elected mayor of London, reclaiming the post for Labour after eight years of Conservative rule and becoming the first Muslim mayor of a major western capital. 

Khan took 1,310,143 votes (57%) after second preferences were taken into account, beating Conservative Zac Goldsmith into second place on 994,614 (43%). His tally gave him the largest personal mandate of any politician in UK history.

Even though his opponent, the loathsome Con Zac Goldsmith, used every dirty trick in the book against him.
