Comment on Pelosi heads north to talk oilsands by tamanite

MaryT, a lot of Albertans haven’t seen the Oil Sands. I was having dinner with a friend in Edmonton just this week who said ‘the disgusting pollution’ in Fort Mac. I was shocked and gave my opinion how beautiful I thought Ft Mc was. Clean air, blue sky, clean rivers pretty town. I grew up in mining towns and I KNOW how ugly they can be. Ft. Mac isn’t that at all. Turns out this friend with the opinion has been to Ft. Mac once – just driving through in the middle of the night. He backed right off when I mentioned I’d been up there for a week at a time about half a dozen times the last two years. People yak about crap they don’t even bother to find out if its true.

That is exactly what she should be told: we are cleaning up Mother Natiure’s oil spill after several millions of years leaking into the environment. What, they want us to just leave it continue to pollute the Clearwater and Athabasca Rivers, untold numbers of lakes and streams, native people’s land, wildlife?

What the hell is their problem with this? Show this moonbat the reclamation post extraction and clean-up. They might learn something from us applicable to their open pit, mountain top coal mining practices in the Appalachian states. What a bunch of prissy, self righteous moonbats!

This woman and her political Party need an education on the facts of life about the oil sands and their own “dirty” industries. What do they think we were doing going after them on acid rain for? This woman needs to look in the mirror for solutions to their own problems instead of trying to meddle in our affairs.

Would be great if she lost, but she is probably going to lose the Speakers job.
Shouldn’t she be going to AB and at least fly over the oil sands projects to see the truth. I don’t think a majority of people have ever seen the the oil sands, pre development. We should have said we are recovering oil that mother nature spilled all over the north.

right, I wonder if China wanting to buy up oil sand property and talk of a pipe line to get that oil to the west coast is getting their attention

PS
wouldn’t that be a hoot if she lost her seat in November.

Re:#1. The Judge. Highly respected by her peers Demonstrated of exemplary character. Highly respected by the legal community as a whole. So she foolishly let her crackpot screwball lawyer husband take some picture so of her in private. So what. Her crackpot screwball husband admits his wife knew nothing of what he was up to with Alex Chapman. The ‘victim’….convicted arsonist (since pardoned). Did he burn something down to collect insurance money and thereby attempt to defraud an insurance company? Come’on CBC, get off your collective butts and at least try and find out. Now this lawsuit, is this just a continuing pattern of attempted fraud, a scam. He is breaching a confidentially contract for which he accepted and was paid $25,000 to honour but it is he who is the victim and who is demanding $67M to sooth what he claims are his hurt feelings? By his own demonstrated past deeds his word is at least worthy of some measure of skepticism. He is the purveyor of previous law suits, two against the Winnipeg Police Service. Professional complainer and shyster? IMO he is likely to be made up of the stuff you scrape off the bottom on your shoe after a walk in the dog park. The CBC, too many too highly paid too little initiative producers who haven’t got the time or inclination to do other than a cursory check (if even that) into Chapman’s background. A highly successful woman’s career and in fact her very life has just been ruined by this guy. Who is the genuine victim here? Does anybody really care?

Actually, the dynamic is pretty much the samef, at least in the comments. Remember Mr. G? He was pretty blatant, calling people animals/savages, talking about IQ, etc. Most telling moment: never a word of protest from Ward, Eliza, theotherpete, or anyone else whose lost their marbles whenver I told them their society is not perfect. UV, stageleft and Anna (M.I.A.) are the only ones willing to counter but usually get marginalized as lefties for it. The National Post is perhaps a better approximation, as it is further to the right but less profane.

I hope they are on satellite radio also.

Comment on Top cops split on long-gun registry (1) by Jean

Jean — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:49:57 +0000

Maybe just keeping track of sales between individuals and new sales and very limited to just that and not all of the money spent on salaries, infrastructure, toilet paper for the office bathrooms.

Maybe just the LGR not counting all the costs of the restricted and prohibited registry and trying to keep up to date the information from decades of transactions since 1934 when they started registering handguns: Anyone want to bet how much of that information is in error or was lost went they cancelled all the old registrations and forced everybody to re-register what was already registered. Lots of people and guns fell out of view of the system when they moved and didn’t inform the Firearms control bureaucracy by neglect, not knowing they were supposed to give their new address or just out of civil disobedience.

A lot of inherited guns may also have disappeared over decades for all sort of random or deliberate reasons: Forgotten , lost, stolen, hidden over multiple decades gives a very high error rate between where things are supposed to be and where they actually are: It’s a bit like putting a number on every grain of sand on a beach, after a while the tide and wind will have taken care of randomizing what was carefully catalogued.

In any case low balling the annual cost figures just makes it hard to believe,

Interesting wording, they want the CRTC to make it mandatory for cable/satellite networks to provide access to their channel (which they would have to carry to do) but that doesn’t mean that want the cable/satellite networks to be forced to carry it.

You can tell someone involved in politics crafted that one can’t you?

Personally I have no difficulty with FoxNorth firing up. I hope they run an over the air digital version as well so that I can watch it, but they really should quit the weasel wording and just come out and say that they want the CTRC to mandate the cable/satellite networks to carry them because that’s the bottom line of their request isn’t it?

There must be something about having a Conservative media around for Soros to meddle into. I wonder what the lefty medias and Soros have ‘so secret’ that they do not want anyone to know especially ‘a Conservative media’ poking around.

The left wing media to react to anything that smells, looks like an outsider makes them feel very nervous. I wonder why…hmmmm.

It is just like the lieberals to talk out of both sides of the mouth. Buy in up front than complain about it later. They obviously have no long tern concepts, except power. They are dangerous and expensive.

Comment on NAACP Under Fire by Jack

It takes a week or so for pundits to collect their thoughts. We’ll wait and see how they respond but my best guess is that the NAACP is in trouble because they have been exposed and it’s about time.
