The Council of Canadians have confirmed that the court case investigating electoral fraud in Canada’s 41st election confirmed that electoral fraud had occurred.

Yesterday, the long-awaited Federal Court ruling on election fraud was released and in a clear and bold statement, Judge Richard Mosley wrote: “I find that electoral fraud occurred during the 41st General Election.”

The judge raised grave concerns that the fraudulent calls “struck at the integrity of the electoral process by attempting to dissuade voters from casting ballots for their preferred candidates. This form of ‘voter suppression,’ was, until the 41st General Election, largely unknown in this country.”

The applicants argued that the fraudulent robocalls were widespread, targeted and centrally organized – which is precisely what Judge Mosley found. “I am satisfied that it has been established that misleading calls about the locations of polling stations were made to electors in ridings across the country, including the subject ridings, and that the purpose of those calls was to suppress the votes of electors who had indicated their voting preference in response to earlier voter identification calls,” and that “the most likely source of the information used to make the misleading calls was the CIMS database maintained and controlled by the CPC [Conservative Party of Canada], accessed for that purpose by a person or persons currently unknown to this Court.”

This is a serious indictment of the Conservative Party of Canada and the government that pretends it has a right to govern the people of Canada today.

Judge Mosley chastised the Conservative MPs. “It has seemed to me that the applicants sought to achieve and hold the high ground of promoting the integrity of the electoral process while the respondent MPs engaged in trench warfare in an effort to prevent this case from coming to a hearing on the merits.”

Mosley made note of their obstructionist tactics, stating, “Despite the obvious public interest in getting to the bottom of the allegations, the CPC made little effort to assist with the investigation at the outset despite early requests. I note that counsel for the CPC was informed while the election was taking place that the calls about polling station changes were improper. While it was begrudgingly conceded during oral argument that what occurred was “absolutely outrageous”, the record indicates that the stance taken by the respondent MPs from the outset was to block these proceedings by any means.”

When will Stephen Harper take ownership of the mess he’s created by abusing the Senate, an institution he personally attacked on numerous occasions when he was the opposition?

When will Stephen Harper be accountable for the countless fraudsters that are abusing the system under his watch, taking Canadians for every penny they can get?

When will Stephen Harper stand up and finally accept full responsibility for the financial mess that Jim Flaherty and other members of his cabinet have created, including the literal evaporation of more than $3 billion from the federal coffers?

When will Stephen Harper come clean and either fire or support his Chief of Staff (and subsequently resign because it’s the right thing to do), all because of an egregious error in judgement about buying out Duffy’s expenses?

When will Stephen Harper actually take ownership of the madness in his Cabinet, PMO, Government and other institutions and if he doesn’t, do we really want someone that’s so uninformed, so unqualified, so disrespected and so disdainful to the public of Canada running our country?

When will Stephen Harper resign?

Oil.

Alberta Oil.

Reports show that Alberta oil companies spent hundreds of thousands on campaign contributions for the BC Liberals.

Quelle surprise.

And where did that money go?

Attack ads.

Guess what voters of BC?  I won’t cry for your coastlines when they’re thick with bitumen.  You’ve fallen for the worst and oldest trick in the book – attack ads – and now you have to accept the reality that oil companies will bring to your door.

It’s 100% time to put 100% of the 100% crooked and 100% corrupt Stephen Harper Conservatives behind their 100% publicly funded 100% privately owned prison system.

I’m 100% astounded and 100% shocked that Peter Mackay would be 100% idiotic enough to offer a 100% guarantee concerning the cabinet seat for 100% election cheat Peter Penashue.

100% of Canadians – and more importantly, the voters of Newfoundland and Labrador – must be 100% blind to believe this 100% lie and 100% distortion of what a 100% honest and 100% accountable government would do to support a candidate.  Of course, it matters 100% not that this type of 100% garbage is being blasted at 100% of voters for Monday’s by-election.  What it proves is that the Harper Government (100% not my government) is 100% beyond contempt for 100% of the public of Canada, including 100% of their own 100% moronic support base.

This is 100% bullshit and I’m 100% pissed off.

100% of the rest of us should be as well.

A lot of people have shown their annoyance, aggravation and irritation with RBC for having announced that they will downsize to another country after the foreign-worker program has been exhausted.

I would argue that this anger is misdirected and that RBC is simply following the law of the land.

Law that was put into place to depreciate the value of contributions from anyone in this country that earns a salary, owns a business or pulls down a wage.

Law that was put into place to make us all compete with working and living conditions that no human being should have to tolerate.

Law that was put into place by a group of Canadian politicians that march to the beat of one drummer:  Tar Sands companies desperately seeking anyone with a pulse to work in their holes.

Law that was put into place by the Conservative Party of Canada.

Why do they hate us SO much?

For someone who talks the talk and bullies other provinces and jurisdictions around, Mr. Flaherty should take some of his own advice.

Another budget has been delivered by Mr. Flaherty and the Conservatives, but we’ve somehow added another $26 billion to our ever-growing mountain of debt.  So, if Mr. Flaherty is borrowing money when interest rates are low, why the hell shouldn’t every other Canadian?

Since coming into office, the Conservative Party of Canada – so-called bastions of fiscal management – have increased Canada’s outstanding debt by a whopping $160 billion and counting.  They’ve annihilated surpluses, they’ve slashed revenue sources and they’ve now committed an extra few pennies of every dollar earned to NEW interest payments on this NEW debt.

The biggest problem I have is that no one out there is calling Jim Flaherty or the rest of the Conservatives on this steaming pile of horse turd.  Mainstream media just looks for the ‘goodies’ in the budget and at least a third of all Canadians continue to think that Flaherty and the Conservatives are actually doing a good job, all the while grinding this country into oblivion.

You should all be ashamed.

Beppe Grillo created the ‘unparty’ for the recent Italian election, using it as a focal point of the true disgust that all voters in Italy have towards the corruption and manipulation that exists there.

Of course, this corruption and manipulation exists everywhere, so it’s up to us to prove that Canada can be changed and saved as well by an ‘unpolitical’ movement.  The tools are all the same.  The demand is the same.  The opportunity is the same.

Over the next 3 years, we can defeat the current Canadian ‘democratic’ infrastructure by using Grillo’s Five Star Movement as an example.

What’s that you say?  A ‘none of the above’ movement would wash out the votes of the centre-left even more than they already are?

I’ll tell you this folks:  the centre-left has left.  It’s gone.  The Liberals are no more liberal than cows are pigs.  The NDPers pluck cash from an ever-dying union base that’s being destroyed by forces they can’t control.  They’re also back-peddling when making comments about the world’s nastiest environmental disaster called the Tar Sands.  The Greens?  They might as well just be called the Canadian version of the Tea Party, eternally damning Canadians to a single party dictatorship of King Steve.

The Canadian media establishment is no better.  No matter the political party, everybody still insists on wasting contribution dollars on traditional media formats, all owned by the likes of Bell, Rogers, Sun Media and Post Media.  This is truly a waste, as all of the heads of these companies push these hard earned funds directly into the coffers of the Conservatives.

Now, in the last election, the NDP was basically the ‘none of the above’ option for many Canadians, racing yet again to a … wait for it … second place in the polls.  And in 2016, they’ll probably be back in third place after the Liberals give one last big gush for their new idol (and appointed) Justin Trudeau.

And the Cons?  Well, they’ll just keep on doing everything they tell us not to do and stink up the whole place until the end of time.

However, given the fact that none of the above political parties plan to change their process any time soon, it’s time we all made the choice to move in a new direction.

We need something that funnels the disgust of the Occupy Movement and the Idle No More efforts to gain recognition for basic human rights.

None of the Above.  I like the sounds of it already.

All Conservative roads seem to point to corruption, greed and abuse of power and the recent story about Mike Fluffy is no different.

What if the Senator from PEI didn’t get caught putting his fist into two cookie jars?  What if life went on, as it was until someone investigated his tax claims, and he continued to enjoy getting rich off the backs of Canadian taxpayers?

And what if Patrick Brasshole didn’t get caught abusing his power when it came to his domestic affairs?

And what if Pamela Stonewallen is next in the ever-growing list of Conservative appointees who are crooked to the earlobes and who are so busy giving Canadians the shaft that they can’t actually run the country?

Every day, there’s another controversy with respect to the repeated sins that Conservatives commit and we’re expected to say ‘Gee … I guess it’s OK if Fluffy admits he did wrong and pays the money back.’

Any other Canadian pulls that kind of crap and they wind up in jail.  Why should Conservatives be any different?

Once again, I find myself questioning the intelligence of people that vote for Conservatives.  I mean, we see the pattern repeat over and over again, for last several decades, in Canada and afar, and yet they continue to put blinders on and tell themselves that there are no alternatives.

WAKE UP PEOPLE!  You’re being taken for a spin.

It’s slowly becoming more clearly that Canadian financial institutions received massive bailouts, all-the-while maintaining that everything was just peachy.

A report from EconomicReason.com takes a look at how Canadian banks were bailed out in 2008 and early 2009.  More importantly, they review how the Canadian banking system is still exposed and how we may actually have a riskier lending environment than other countries.

This situation is of serious concern for so many reasons:

• The risk of continued financial uncertainty
• The cost foisted on Canadians
• Canadian politicians pretending that nothing happened and that we’re actually the most sound financial system in the world.

We need more truth on this issue, particularly since most bank CEOs hauled in record bonuses and pay checks since 2008.

2012 was the year of political fallout, grounded by corruption, in Canada and elsewhere.

Corruption was the real story of the year.  Don’t buy what the privately-held mass manipulators want us to believe.  Magnotta who?

Let’s recap why corruption was the important theme of 2012:

• Municipal:  more mayors than ever were either turfed from office or should have been because they were pilfering from local taxpayers.  While I’m excited to see the likes of Rob Ford getting roasted by the legal system, it’s important that we as citizens keep up the pressure on local corruption and support an objective host of judges.
• Provincial:  In Ontario, we had to suffer through another year of Dalton McGuinty’s corrupt Liberal government, as it floundered through Ornge, health care issues, removal of basic human rights and so on.  In Quebec, student protests and other actions brought down the Charest government in a humiliating defeat against the re-born separatists.
• Federal:  I could go on for some time about the collapse of credibility of the Stephen Harper Conservatives.  And will.

Example 1 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

Financial incompetence.

Jim Flaherty’s complete show of hypocrisy every time he opens his mouth is frustrating, to say the least.

This man in incapable of running the finances of the federal government and yet has the gall to continue to lecture other ministers at the provincial level and on the international stage about fiscal management.

The man is a fraud and should be fired for perpetuating the absurd myth that Conservatives are better managers of budgets as opposed to liberals or progressives.

Since coming to office through stolen elections, the Conservatives have turned a $16 billion surplus in 2006, with the total debt actually GOING DOWN to a massive increase in total debt since 2006.

Fact:  total debt in Canada has increase from roughly $520 billion in 2006 to more than $670 billion projected for 2013-2014.

Conclusion:  incompetence.

Example 2 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

The F-35 debacle.  Defense Minister Peter Mackay has not only sold us out to a gaggle of war mongers to the south, he’s been at the forefront of lying to the Canadian public (along with all of his other cronies) about the true costs of the F-35 program that we don’t need and can’t afford, regardless of the ‘final’ cost.

Of course, as the bills were being tallied for something we haven’t even begun to purchase, the Department of Defense wins a ‘hidden turd’ award for planting a big increase in budget with recent news, despite the fact that they were being roasted left, right and centre.  In fact, evidence shows that Peter Mackay used valuable public resources to investigate critics of the lavish and wasteful F-35 program, long before finally admitting that the Conservatives need a ‘reset’ on this issue.

Example 3 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

The Tar Sands Sellout.

Look … I could care less about the future of the Tar Sands, but the facts are the facts:  we’ve sold a substantial portion of the Tar Sands to foreign holders without any right to control or profit from these sales.

Canada is now essentially in the hands of the Chinese, Dutch, Norwegians and Americans and we’ve lost the autonomy of our government to oil barrons.

Plain. Simple. Truth.

The greatest concern is the depth of this story.  Some people go from very raw emotion about the sell-out of Canada’s resources to foreign, Communist interests, to the more subtle investigation being put forward by the likes of the Tyee.

That said, there’s something extremely unnerving about the whole situation and Canadians need to find a way to put themselves first.  Now.

Example 4 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

The Quebec Inquiry.

The depths of corruption in Quebec are a simple example of how endless piles of ‘Economic Action Plan’ dollars were funneled from the pockets of Canadians to the pockets of crooks.

We see hints of how the connections are close to the Harper Regime, but we’ll never get the truth about this situation because our media is run by a pack of those folks that just want us to subscribe to their services and look away while we’re being robbed.

Example 5 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

The facts have shown that they’ve cheated in every election.

In Spring of 2011, a federal court found that Harper’s Conservatives willfully violated the $18.3 million election spending limit, during the campaign which originally brought them to power in 2006. 4 Conservatives (including 2 Conservative Senators) currently face charges and possible jail time.

The Robo-Call scandal is just the latest of scandals that continue to surround the Conservative Party of Canada.

This is the scandal to beat all scandals as far as I’m concerned and if corruption wasn’t the lead story of the year, this should have been.

Canadians had their democratic rights stolen and destroyed by people with deep pockets.

Example 6 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

Canada was the first country to officially withdraw from the Kyoto Accord.  While technically not an indicator of corruption, it falls squarely in the camp of the Harper Regime being lead by one special interest party (Big Oil) as opposed to an array of voices from different organizations and wealth levels.

Example 7 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

Everyone is a criminal, unless you’re a Conservative.  This is a fundamental doctrine that has to exist in order to justify the bloated prison budgets that will be handed down to the provincial levels.

Canadians need to be alert to this kind of scare-mongering.  Hints of Conservative disdain for anyone with a point of view beyond the texts of Milton Friedman, Karl Rove and Nicolo Macchiavelli were apparent long before they even came to power, but recent efforts to label every walk of life with ‘terrorist’, ‘enemy of the state’ or ‘radicals’ reek of fascism and despotism.

Again, this doesn’t directly translate to corruption per se, but does set the foundation for a government bent on destroying the fundamental rights and freedoms of Canadians.

We should all be very concerned we live in a country where protest = prison.

Example 8 of Stephen Harper’s corrupt to the core Conservatives:

Endless patronage appointments.

Throughout Canada, there are still people that believe the lies the Harper Regime told us about their plans to end the raft of patronage appointments throughout the halls of government control.

I hope you don’t mind my pointing this out, but you’re all fools since you believed this and voted for it.

As it stands, Stephen Harper has appointed more than 1,000 friends, buddies, losers of elections and other cronies to the halls of Canadian government, all with a specific strategy in mind:  ensure that it will be decades before an objective government can run the country of Canada again.

Most of these appointments are arranged during illegal or questionable ‘breaks’ with the House of Parliament, on weekends or during holiday breaks, ensuring that the already complicit mainstream media does its best to ignore the endless array of appointments by Stephen Harper and his crew.

What Promise for 2013?

It’s unlikely that we’ll see any true change in 2013, but the cracks are starting to show.

The Cons will not be able to hold things together much longer as long as passionate and dedicated Canadians focus on just how bad Stephen Harper and his crew are for ALL of Canada.

However, only the people that actually voted for the Conservatives can really bring about the change that we all deserve.  You must wake up from your slumber and realize that you’ve been lied to, manipulated and duped.

HAVE A GREAT 2013!
