You could be forgiven for thinking that Christopher Skinner's killer was a blond blue-eyed denizen of Rosedale because virtually no media outlet is showing pictures of his killer, Agustin Alexander Caruso, who just plead out to manslaughter.

Cops were finally able to track down the man they believe drove the SUV that ran over Skinner, 27, and left him for dead on Adelaide St. — after a group viciously attacked him.

They beat Chris Skinner senseless and then ran over him... twice.

Manslaughter or murder, you tell me.

When David Suzuki...

...in his magnum opus, "A Matter of Survival" warned the nation...

"There are too many of us; we consume too much; we pollute too much..."

I guess he wasn't thinking about his own five children.

Similarly, when Professor SaintZuki lectures the hoi-polloi about their egregious carbon footprint, he likewise exempts his own extensive real estate portfolio.

Suzuki, who's made a name for himself fighting for the environment and against development, owns four homes, including one property he co-owns with a fossil fuels company.

His primary abode is a sprawling mansion in the Kitsilano neighbourhood of Vancouver, worth approximately $8.2 million.

But, hey... it gets better...

Saint Suzuki despises lobbyists, and says they have a disproportionate control of political power in Ottawa. But Secret Suzuki himself has nine paid lobbyists registered in Ottawa’s lobbyist registry. Not one. Nine.

The new card information indicated a annual fee of $99.00 plus $15.00 annual fee for an additional card and we were beyond uninterested in paying more fees for a card that we personally would receive no more benefit from.

We were also still quite unimpressed by the high pressure tactics used by the BMO telemarketer. My husband phoned BMO MasterCard, told them we were keeping the old cards and not using the new ones. We NEVER validated the cards they sent us. They are still glued to the paperwork.

"And now for today’s least shocking statistic: Just four in 10 Americans say they have a 'great deal' or a 'fair amount' of trust in the media to report the news fairly and accurately, according to new data from Gallup. That matches historic lows the media also “achieved” in 2012 and 2014."

I stopped watching the so-called television "news" a year ago and I'm a happier person for it.

Todays news is simply dumbed down push-propaganda and "info-tainment" that spotlights socialist cant while devaluing the meritocracy... that whole no "crazy, junkie, fundamentalist (unless they're Christian or Jewish), gender conflicted, low information, wannabe hippy arsonist" left behind POV.

“This is a political game being played on the backs of all Canadians who have different origins than old-stock Canadians and I am going to stand up against it.”

Sorry, Tommy... this isn't about "origins" at all. There are plenty of law-abiding immigrants in this country. Far from affecting groups of people, Bill C24 might apply to 30 of Canada's 32 million people.

This is about treason. It's about terrorism. It's about wholesale slaughter of innocents. This is actually about direct action against would be murderers of Canadian citizens.

As it stands, under Canada's existing laws, Zakaria Amara is eligible for parole in 2016. If this convicted terrorist is going to be walking around free next year, I'd rather he be living the dream in Amman, Jordan than in Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver.

Let's ask a Conservative Minister...

“If somebody is found guilty of violent disloyalty to Canada, in this instance planning to murder hundreds or potentially thousands of Canadians for ideological reasons, that they are in so doing forfeiting their Canadian citizenship,” Defence Minister Jason Kenney said.

I'm good with that.

I suspect a majority of my fellow Canadians are as well. I guess we'll find out next month.

Back in the seventies...

...the Bell Manufacturing Company used to say... "If you've got a ten dollar head, wear a ten dollar helmet." You don't actually have to kiss asphalt at highway speed to appreciate the wisdom of that slogan.

Similarly, you can vote for Justin Trudeau... if you want Zakaria Amara to remain in Canada. The Liberal Party is the ten dollar helmet of Canadian politics. And that's just one more reason why I'm voting Conservative next month.

"The federal government has revoked the citizenship of an Islamic extremist who masterminded a plot to bomb downtown Toronto in an effort to terrorize Canadians and cripple the economy."

The Conservatives are the only political party who have the will to act against terrorism.

In contrast, Canadians should remember how Justin and Tommy Hijabfiger championed the cause of poor little Omar Khadr, admitted terrorist & murderer. Will they have Zakaria's back too?

I wonder how many voters are aware of Justin's intention to do away with the very act of Parliament that permits Canada to send Zakaria "Boom-Boom" Amara back to wherever he came from.

"Trudeau said a Liberal government would also repeal the elements of Bill C-24 that give the government the right to strip citizenship from dual nationals accused of serious crimes such as terrorism."

...Hannibal Lector collected "church collapses."

The crush happened at Mina, which is the location for a key ritual - symbolically stoning the devil by throwing pebbles against three pillars.

Apparently, the Devil decided to fight back.

"People were chanting Allah's name while others were crying, including children and infants. People fell on the ground seeking help but there was no-one to give them a helping hand. Everybody seemed to be on their own."

"Dead bodies stretch as far as my eyes can see," said Bashir Sa'ad Abdullahi, the BBC's Abuja editor, who is in Mina.

The Saudis are quick to make promises about the future...

“And we will make sure that we will learn from this and we will make sure that it doesn’t happen again,” Saudi Foreign Minister Adel Al-Jubeir added, urging Iranian leaders to wait for the investigation results.

Unfortunately, they're talking out their arse, yet again.

Much like Ted Kennedy's car, the Hajj has killed way more (as in thousands of) people than my guns and will likely continue to do so in the future.

1997: 340 pilgrims are killed when fire fuelled by high winds sweeps through Mina's tent city

1994: 270 pilgrims die in a stampede during the stoning ritual

1990: 1,426 pilgrims, mainly Asian, die in a stampede in an overcrowded tunnel leading to holy sites

1987: 402 people die when security forces break up an anti-US demonstration by Iranian pilgrims

If this had happened in Canada, Justin's Liberals would, no doubt, be calling for a "Pilgrim Registry."

I suppose if you are a religious person and your family were crushed and killed, you could console yourself with, "Gawd is just testing my faith," which, to be honest, seems like pretty thin gruel to me.

It is THIS PERCEPTION, THIS BELIEF, that drives Jenner, indeed all transsexuals to what some of us consider the edge of the behavioral envelope.

In contrast to this, Bigorexics are unanimously considered to be suffering from a mental illness.

"Whereas anorexics think they are too fat when they are actually too thin, bigorexics think they look puny when, in fact, they are muscular."

Since he took office in 2006, Mallick writes, Harper has imported some of the worst American policy ideas—slashing the federal budget, introducing mandatory prison sentences, attacking climate scientists, expanding the war on drugs—in an attempt to turn Canada into “a nastier version of Texas.”

If he wins reelection on October 19, Mallick concludes, “Americans might want to consider a wall.”

I'm not even sure how that makes sense as one of Mallicks accusations is that, "Harper has imported some of the worst American policy ideas..."

"His plea for nonpartisanship didn’t prevent him, however, from accusing the Conservative government of bungling the refugee file."

As for not making this political...

"The Liberals have promised to 'take immediate action' to bring 25,000 Syrian refugees to Canada through government-sponsored applications, a plan they estimate would cost $100 million."

The hypocrisy, to say nothing of the magnitude of the bribe, is simply breathtaking.

LAST WORD: The Religion of Peace, er...

As Amnesty International recently pointed out, the “six Gulf countries — Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain — have offered zero resettlement places to Syrian refugees.”

That’s a shocking figure, given these countries’ relative proximity to Syria, as well as the incredible resources at their disposal.

Perhaps Justin wants to rethink his plan?

Canuckistan Journalism 101

Like everybody else, I'm sick and tired of the blatantly false propaganda that gets passed off these days as "news."

Lie #1 - Syrian citizens, Turkish beach, dangerous illegal infiltration... let's blame Stephen Harper.

The aunt of the Syrian boy whose body washed up on a Turkish beach and caused worldwide outrage said Thursday that while she had desperately tried to bring his family to Canada, no formal application to sponsor them as refugees was made on their behalf as had been previously reported.

So, hang on... you "desperately tried" to do this without actually applying for refugee status? You, what... called a "Snakehead?"

Here in Canada we call that "breaking the law."

**********

UPDATE: Yup... they called a Snakehead

The grieving father said he paid smugglers 4,000 euros for the deadly voyage — the money his sister sent to him from Canada.

Which brings us to yet another lie...

Abdullah Kurdi told Die Welt that he does not understand why Canada rejected his application for asylum, although Citizenship and Immigration Canada received no such application from the man.

Abdullah Kurdi isn't even a good liar. Would you want him living next door to you?

**********

Lie #2 - Stephen Harper offered me a bribe.

Reuters reported early Thursday that Kurdi had said Canadian officials offered him citizenship after seeing what happened, but he declined.

But Citizenship and Immigration Canada released a statement Thursday afternoon saying "Canada did not offer citizenship to Mr. Abdullah Kurdi."

So Big Journo yet again slagged the federal government without actually checking the facts. I guess I get it... you've got a picture of a dead kid, you've got to milk it for all its worth.

And guess who just had to pile on?

"Liberal party leader Justin Trudeau has responded to the death of a three-year-old Syrian boy by suggesting the child should have been living in Vancouver and on his way to school this week with his cousins."

Except, of course, that there was no actual application to come to Canada. But heck, that's Justin... he's always saying stupid stuff. Let's ask elder statesman Mulcair...

New Democrats leader Thomas Mulcair was asked similar questions at a separate campaign appearance.

"As a dad and a grandfather, it is just unbearable that we are doing nothing."

Of course, without an actual application, there was nothing to do.

I can't decide who is more reprehensible, the people telling the lies or the people propagating them.

Nope, it's easy... it's the journos who peddle this nonsense.

Donald Trump says politically incorrect things we're all afraid to talk about these days.

As hot as this particular political potato may be, it appears the NDP isn't afraid to play with fire...

Just last week, NDP Leader Thomas Mulcair told a group of South Asians in Surrey that family reunification for grandparents would be a top priority for him as Prime Minister."

"A TOP PRIORITY," huh, Tommy?

Since the signing of the nuclear deal between Iran and world powers in July, Khamenei has repeatedly spoken out against Tehran’s main negotiating partners in Washington. “The root cause of the problems returns to their real enemies, the US and Israel.”

Khamenei claimed Saturday that Islamic nations were being manipulated into internal strife by the world’s “bullies” and urged Islamic unity in the face of what he identified as the Umma’s two greatest enemies: the US and Israel.

Think about it. Barack Obama is freeing up 150 billion dollars in frozen Iranian assets. He's allowing Iran, despite that regime being the premier sponsor of Islamic terrorism worldwide, to climb back up on the international porch with the big dogs.

Most importantly, Iran (with their now paltry but legitimate 6060 nuclear centrifuges) gets to join the international Nuke-O-Sphere in the very near future. The supposed benefit here is that Iran's "breakout time", the time it would take them to put together enough weapons-grade uranium for one bomb, has been extended from about 3 months to one year. That's right, one year... IF they don't cheat. They also get to keep their "hardened facilities" at Natanz and Fordow... you know the ones that can't be easily destroyed.

In effect, Uncle Sam bent over and grabbed his ankles. Iran is off the hook and "off the chain", yet the Obama Whitehouse continues to frame this "agreement" as a victory. Remember, Iran doesn't have to shoot off an ICBM. They don't even have to do it themselves. Any one of Iran's terrorist proxies with ten kilos (Iran has amassed 10,000k to date) of highly enriched uranium and a case of C4 could make the Isle of Manhattan a much less desirable postal code for, well... way past my best-before date.

And Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is more than happy to shove all that in America's face at every opportunity.If you thought Iran was a danger previous to now, just imagine what they'll do with their newfound cash, influence and a grab bag of nukes.

For all that, you can thank Barack Hussein Obama. Hope and change bitches. Just remember, you brought it on yourselves.

But remember at the same time that Canada has posted the best economic record of any G7 country through the worst global economic crisis since the 1930s: more jobs, faster growth, and lower public-sector debt.

It is believed the warehouse contained at least 700 tonnes of sodium cyanide, a toxic chemical that can kill rapidly if inhaled, as well as other highly flammable and dangerous materials.

Think of Trump as a weathervane

Let's face it... anyone to the political right of Bert and Ernie is sick and tired of being shunned and vilified for falling out of lockstep with the politically-correct herd.

“People have to get their minds wrapped around the fact that the seething fury at the leadership of the Republican Party is real, and it’s going to bubble over somehow with somebody, and right now it’s with Trump.”

Donald Trump has become a lightning rod for the frustration & anger of a large segment of the American people.

If you are opposed to abortion, if you want to punish criminals, if you don't want to unreservedly celebrate Bruce, er...
