That prompted the obvious question, ?What do you mean by ?our Canada???Well, here goes:In my Canada we are recognised around the world as an independent and honest broker, not encumbered...

posted by Marni Soupcoff, National Post: In the end, a judge may decide that the way the Conservative Party of Canada transferred money to its local candidates to buy advertising in the 2006 federal election violated the Canada Elections Act. But even if that turns out to be the case, it would be the equivalent of a court ruling that a taxpayer's aggressive deduction violated...

I find it absolutely unbelievable that any party, even the Conservative Party of Canada would vote non-confidence towards Elections Canada, the non-partisan federal body which ensures our democracy. By voting against the Bloc Quebecois's bill, they are stating that the current governing...

They don't have confidence in Elections Canada! Then again the leader of the Conservative Party of Canada once called the top brass at Elections Canada a bunch of “jackasses” who were “out of control”. You used to be so eloquent in your younger years, Mr. Prime Minister. Steve V has an excellent question for Pierre Poilievre. He outlines it nicely on his blog. In...
