  1. runner danchuk from Saskatoon, Canada writes: I am from Western Canada and I'm feeling concerned. It is important, probably more important than ever before, to look at your ADQ leader and read about his propaganda. He and Con Harper are very close friends with very similar beliefs.

    Please read the Gazette and the La Presse before you cast your vote in the by elections.

    If you are a conservative, you're o.k. because Stockwell Day assumes that no Con would ever be on the wrong side of the law; he says that National Security is not concerned even if you belong or are aquainted with anyone from the Hell's Angels Biker Gang or Chamas (Max Bernier's photo op with them smiling and shaking hands).

    Harper tells us that it is none of our business to be concerned or discuss the threats that Max Bernier's ex spouse (once married to a biker gang member) would never be a Security Threat on Canada because she is a Conservative in love with a high profile Conservative.

    Be careful what you vote for. Thanks.
    Concerned for our future Security. Peace be with you on this beautiful Mother's Day.
  2. Popeye Dillon from North Vancouver, Canada writes: I get concerned when an uniformed doofus like 'runner danchuk' can't even get his facts right to give an intelligent comment. The sound bite, knee jerk generation I suppose.
  3. runner danchuk from Saskatoon, Canada writes: Yeah, knee jerk. You're right, I don't know the facts. So, I interpret them as to mean that my facts are everybody's business.
    Just thought I'd take a different stand as opposed to Harper Cons 'it's nobody's business' who Bernier brings, with taxpayers money, to foreign affairs private meetings.
    Darn it anyways, I'm sorry Pipeye Dillin.
    Gotta love it though...Happy Mother's Day. God Bless you and yours.
  4. runner danchuk from Saskatoon, Canada writes: Pipeye Dillin, I forgot to ask you what a Doorfus is? What's up with this? It's mother's Day. Thanks Dillon, I'm awaiting your response. Shed some light on the Bernier love affair that is none of our business. Michael Chamas and Madam, you know who, Bernier's ex wife. Did she get what she needed or wanted (inside espionage), or did Bernier just dump her because he realized she is associated with the Quebec Wing of the Hell's Angels?
    Thanks buddy.
  5. Michael Sharp from Victoria, Canada writes:

    runner danupchuk, as far as Ms. Couillard goes, she goes like a mink.
    She's a biker chick.
    The greatest security risk faced by the nation was that Maxime would have had all his wine drunk and stuff smoked.

    Now, back on topic.

    The ADQ and Quebec's provincial Liberals will vote CPC.

    THIS is the significance of this article.

    Quebec will vote CPC.

    They will not vote for Le Rat.
  6. Stude Ham from Outremont, Canada writes: The last quebec provincial election showed tremendous voter confusion fuelled by a massive vote buying campaign from the clownservatives... a budget given in the last week of the campaign doling out billions of $$$ to the province... helping the very unpopular charest to promise a tax cut. it also saw a PQ weakened by a leader whose personal life style left far too many voters uncomfortable.

    The ADQ did not rise to the challenge to which it had been called. In reality, the ADQ had nothing to offer and that, more than anything else, has led to its precipitous decline.

    In any case, byelections in this province do not provide any clue as to how the provincial election itself will tilt.
  7. Jenn D from Gatineau QC, Canada writes: I'm glad to see that there are some ridings in Quebec up for grabs. I assume that the Liberals could run a goldfish in my riding and still win. As far as the separatist movement splitting into factions, that is wonderful news. Please PQ, break up into more parties. I would be glad to help you name them.
  8. sean smith from Canada writes: Quebec Solidaire is not a 'separatist splinter group'. It is a party with a very different position from the others. Using this article's logic, it would mean every party is a 'splinter' of one or another.

    Although our media and elites would love nothing more than a two party dictatorship, I'm glad other parties exist to challenge those that take power for granted.

  9. Please Conservative voters we value your opinion, not commie scripted talking points from Canada writes: It's not important what we read here about adq, its whats written about them in rags like le devoir.
  10. Nick Wilson from Toronto, Canada writes: Jenn D from Gatineau QC, Canada writes: As far as the separatist movement splitting into factions, that is wonderful news. Please PQ, break up into more parties. I would be glad to help you name them.

    Jenn, who cares about what you think, you're not even a true Quebecer, your an outsider. When comes next referendum, rather than be 60 or 61% to vote yes, francophones will vote yes at 63 or 64 % and it will go through. Even if people like you vote no at 100%, that won't change the final outcome. Deal with it or move out of Quebec!!!
  11. Please Conservative voters we value your opinion, not commie scripted talking points from Canada writes: Nick who are you too judge Jenn how do you know from a few lines who is a ' true Quebecer ' It was people like Jenn and immigrants to Quebec that kept this wonderful country in one piece, and you from needing a passport to visit la belle province.

    Hey Please Conservative, you know what I had a few tears running down my cheeks as I read your message!!! I would have need a passport to visit la belle province. I think there's something more dramatic in life than showing a passport to a custom officer. When I go to USA or Europe, I do have to show my passport and that's perfectly fine with me. If Quebecers don't want to live in a country dominated by gangsta and rap culture, that's their business and I fully respect their right to get out of that farce that Canada has become.
  13. Vern McPherson from writes:
    No question the CPC under the oracle form partz unknown will be out in force in the campaigns financing the vote and making certain third party orgs get involved with oil business money paying for it all.

    That's the COns pattern is it not ? Aren't dupont and the oracle best new friends ? Like 2 snakes in a hissing pit fit ............
  14. Please Conservative voters we value your opinion, not commie scripted talking points from Canada writes: What is keeping you in the , as you say " farce that Canada has become " Perhaps we can organize a collection here to get you on your way Nick Wilson from Toronto Canada.
  15. Jenn D from Gatineau QC, Canada writes: Nick "the misanthrope" Wilson from Toronto, Canada writes: Jenn D from Gatineau QC, Canada writes: Jenn, who cares about what you think (?)

    The Globe and Mail cares what I think. That's why they gave their readers this ability to make comments on stories.
  16. Michael Sharp from Victoria, Canada writes:

    I mean, that's the beauty of this argument.

    Quebec will not be voting LPC.

    Who cares how many biker chicks are in the news.

    Quebec will not be voting LPC.

    That's all anyone needs to know.

    Dear Jenn D: You're really kidding yourself today. Indeed the G&M in its quality of a Liberal lapdog cares about what you have to say only if you express a politically correct opinion that is perfectly in line with the Lieberals philosophy. Just try to post a comment regarding afro-centric school or black criminality in Toronto that doesn't basically say that the whites are responsible and see how long it takes before your post is removed. The G&M has an agenda (hidden agenda) just like CBC and most of the medias in this country.
  18. Nick Wilson from Toronto, Canada writes: Please Conservative voters we value your opinion, not commie scripted talking points from Canada : From which part of the country are you? I doubt you are from this "marvelous" city that is Toronto which might explain our differences of opinion.
  19. Hugo Legault from Gatineau, Canada writes: Michael, this by-election is provincial. The CPC and the LPC are not on the ballots today.
