When Conservative MP Rahim Jaffer narrowly lost his seat to the NDP's Linda Duncan in 2008, no less than four groups claimed or were assigned credit for the defeat: radical Islamists , the vote-swapping AnyonebutHarper gang , George Soros , and--with at least as much credit as any of these-- Michael Geist's gang of copyright warriors . Now, The Pirate Party-- a Swedish organization dedicated to loosening...

Just when you thought the Conservatives couldn't sink any lower, comes word of their latest disgusting but taxpayer-funded 10-per center mailer. This one in Quebec targets the Bloc Quebecois : A pervert in a plaid shirt is luring a child in a park, but the Bloc Québécois will not do anything to stop him, the Conservative Party says in a new round of attack ads. The message, which was...

Today is Canada Day , which is the country's national holiday celebrating the July 1, 1867 enactment of the British North America Act of 1867 , which united Canada as a single country. It's not quite an Independence Day, but a critical juncture in forming modern Canada. In honor of my country's northernly neighbor, today I'd like to highlight some Canadian bookeristas: Politicians Lincoln Alexander...

Fifteen years of surplus budgets had put Alberta in the enviable position of being debt-free. But now, rocked by a double whammy of a recession and falling energy prices, the debts are [...]

Civil rights lawyer Ezra Levant writes: I should have devoted more attention to the leadership contest for the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario. Four candidates ran in that election -- Tim Hudak, Frank Klees, Christine Elliott and Randy Hillier. And -- amazingly -- reform of Ontario's out-of-control human rights commission became the central policy debate of the race. Stop for a moment to...

New Tory leader tells union chiefs to 'get a grip' ( Globe and Mail ): "Tim Hudak, the new leader of the Ontario Progressive Conservative Party, took a shot at public-sector union leaders yesterday, making it clear on his first day in the new job that he is the heir apparent of former premier Mike Harris's Common Sense Revolution."

We have had a few come out since the end of the Parliamentary session, with the latest being the Nanos offering this morning. The Liberal blogsphere has been abuzz about the estimates and many have speculated on the reasons why the Liberals seem to have fallen off a bit. My advice to them is not to worry. The estimates are what they are. Trying to explain movements of less than 2-3% is what the MSM...

A friend of mine once told me his favourite saying was, "It's not who's right, but what's right." If I had god-like powers I would make that expression the official motto of Canada's conservative movement. I say that because "Is it right?" is such a key question. That's the question small "c" conservatives, those of us who believe in smaller government and freer markets...

Some quick thoughts before the weekend: The suspense is killing me. Okay, not killing me but I am mildly interested to know who the new leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Ontario is going to be. Too bad we have to wait until Saturday. I love that "hiking the Appalachian Trail" is now a sexual euphemism. Seriously, cross Gov. Sanford off the 2012 list. Was I the only one both...
