The censorious Media Party

The CBC is, again, attempting to censor Conservative ads showing Justin Trudeau saying something foolish:

More evidence that Alberta is screwed (and Canada with it)

Alberta NDP appoints "crackpot" global warming "cult member" Dave Mowat to lead royalty review:



Ezra references this Globe and Mail article when Mowat was CEO of Vancity Credit Union which has a reputation for eco-nuttery on a variety of fronts.

How long will it take for Albertans to begin howling about (or at least acknowledging) their gross error in judgement?

Gay marriage - Some lessons from Canada for Americans on what to expect next

Brian Lilley breaks it down:

In stunning contradiction of his position a very short time ago, Obama was overjoyed with the US Supreme Court ruling, and even had the White House bathed in rainbow colors.  But his former senior adviser, David Axelrod, explained that there was no contradiction - Obama was lying.  Well, that's OK then!

Christian pastor condemns Trudeau's naive soft stance on ISIS

Majed El-Shafie of One Free World International with Marissa Semkiw:

"... If Justin Trudeau’s only focus is on humanitarians assistance, he will be dropping aid on dead people.”

"If Justin Trudeau is a pacifist, he should come out and say so"

Pssst! Want to buy a Confederate flag?

You won't be able to get one from Amazon or eBay.  They're banning its sale on their websites as a show of their righteousness.  Though they seem to have no problem flogging Islamic and Nazi flags and other paraphernalia.

So, the some 70 million Americans who still admire the Confederate flag as an honorable symbol of Southern heritage worth preserving will have to go elsewhere. Luboš Motl of The Reference Frame suggests this site in the Czech Republic, for one.

Why is the BC carbon tax myth not dead and buried?

Terence Corcoran: Time to bury B.C. carbon tax myth

The B.C. carbon tax is now enshrined as a world famous economic miracle, thanks to some handy promotional papers by a few Canadian economists and a gullible media. ...

... the World Bank is using the B.C. model as a handy selling point for carbon taxes

... It is time to put an end to the B.C. carbon tax success story. If anything, the tax has been a non-event in the economic lives of the people in the province.  ...

And what motivates many large companies and institutions to promote this myth?  Money, of course, big money [h/t to Michelle Stirling in the comments to Corcoran's piece].
