Canadian Women's Favourite Pick-up Line

Clever. And funny. Watch the video and find out what is the favourite pick-up line of Canadian women and why it's being re-posted on a political blog.

And they came out with it before this went public.

Stephen Harper 2004 to Stephen Harper 2011

Stephen Harper, 2011: Minority or not, I will not work with or compromise with the opposition parties.

Stephen Harper, 2004:

It's the government's obligation to look really to the third parties to get the support to govern. [...]

The first obligation in this Parliament, if the government wants to govern, it has to come to Parliament and it has to show that it can get the support of the majority of members, through the Throne Speech, through legislation, and through budget and supply, and the government to this point has made no effort to do that, but that's its first obligation. [...]

Our [i.e. Her Majesty's Official Opposition]primary responsibility is not to prop up the government, our responsibility is to provide an opposition and an alternative government for Parliament and for Canadians. What the government has to do, if it wants to govern for any length of time, is it must appeal primarily to the third parties in the House of Commons to get them to support it.

Updated, newer ad on Harper's comments on healthcare

I think they may have preferred sticking with the original.

Gaffe Alert: "Businesses first. Families and pensioners second."

Oh really?

"Let's be clear. We can only bring tax relief where we can afford it. It's for business first. For families and pensioners second."

I'm pretty sure that this is a good example of why Harper muzzles his candidates and requires them to run bubble campaigns and to keep away from ordinary Canadians and the media.



Or put another way, as the saying goes, "a gaffe is when a politician speaks the truth" and a Conservative gaffe is when a Conservative speaks the truth about their real priorities and concerns.

What's at stake - The Hard Hitting Liberal Ad

The ad that has the Conservatives freaking out, whining all over the place, showing they can dish it but can't take it.

It's time to stop the Stephen Harper Gravy Train

Another quick response video from Enoughharper, this one in response to yesterday's leak of the incredibly damaging Auditor General's report which validates everything the Liberals have been saying about the Conservatives and their spending, accountability, partisan use of taxpayer dollars, contempt of Parliament.

The only surprising thing was that the Auditor General went even further in her rebuke than the Liberals have by suggesting possible illegal activity.

Breaking up with Stephen Harper

Millions of Canadian women are doing it. And so should you!

Mildly funny and certainly clever. Make your own "break up with Stephen Harper" video and send it in.

What's at Stake: Young Jason Kenney - Anti-Abortion Activist Opposed to Free Speech

From the archives, here's a CNN story on free speech and abortion in which a young Jason "Anti-Abortion Activist" Kenney argues strongly against free speech and even allowing women to speak about abortion at his university.

The court disagreed with him.

"Tory Times are Tough Times"

Let us reminisce, shall we, on some of the great contributions of Prime Minister Stephen Harper to our democracy and to accountable, responsible government.

"Imagine Harper"

The Conservatives violated copyright laws in posting Harper's singing of Imagine by John Lennon and so it has been yanked from youtube.

This video is inspired by that, by the prospects of a Harper majority and "imagining" what that would mean to Canada and Canadians.

The irony of course is that Harper loves the Beatles and hates Trudeau while Lennon loved Trudeau and would without a doubt hate Harper.

I love the use of Harper's falsetto, interjected into the video.

Enjoy.

Stop the Facebook Creeping, Mr. Harper - With Video

I like this Liberal war room. Quick, sharp, setting the agenda, even having the confidence to use humour. They are smacking the Conservatives around like hockey pucks.

This is a great rapid response to a very serious issue of the Conservatives spying "Facebook creeping" on ordinary Canadians, banning students and veterans who have properly registered (registering to see the PM? WTF is that?) and are not causing a disturbance (yet another banned Canadian - the 6th? - came forward today). More on that here, but here is the latest video from LiberalVideo:

"This campaign trail sure is bumpy."

"This campaign trail sure is bumpy."

So far this week:

- banning a veterans advocate from hearing Harper speak

- spying on and kicking out students because of their Facebook page (I'm sure it had nothing to do with their Middle Eastern sounding names)

- spying on and kicking out a student because of his bumper sticker

- kicking out students because they attended a non-partisan pro-student pro-vote rally (I'm sure it had nothing to do with the Middle Eastern sounding name of one of them)

- knowing what bumper sticker you have on your car and what's on your Facebook page, and then claiming you didn't know you had a criminal fraudster as one of your closest advisors

- only allowing 4 questions to the national media

- not allowing any questions to ordinary Canadians

- Liberal signs being "targeted" and vandalized

- actively trying to block a government report on G20 police actions

- actively trying to block a government report on detainee torture allegations

- berating a local volunteer, a veteran no less, for even mentioning where Harper was going to be that day

Yup, it's a bumpy campaign trail alright.

And this is all in the last two or so days.

WTF is going on here? This is connecting to Canadians? This is how you apply for a job? This is Harper's version of open, accountable and transparent government? This is Harper's democracy.
