The Evil of Political Cowards

“There is but one coward on earth, and that is the coward that dare not know.”

-W.E.B. DuBois

There is an old saying that evil begets evil and this can be seen in our country today.

This is a country that has over 100,000 abortions yearly, has no law on the killing by abortion--just like China and North Korea--and our political representatives refuse to discuss when human life begins. The latest addition to the ongoing political evil is the suppression of free speech in the House of Parliament. Motion 408 on sex selective abortion   “… was ruled out of order after a discussion at the subcommittee on private members’ business last Thursday” (Macleans, March 25, 2013. [1]).

What is the matter with the “honourable” political cowards inhabiting this House of No Shame? Are they afraid to even discuss the issue of abortion, for to do so might force them to admit that they are party to unrestricted killing in this country? Therefore, the killing must continue unabated, free speech must be suppressed and democracy silenced. As I said earlier, evil begets evil and so the machinations of evil continue to operate to silence truth.

Truth should go hand in hand with leadership, but leadership is lacking in our country today. Instead we have a prime minister who is on record as saying: “As long as I am prime minister we are not opening the abortion debate…” (Stephen Harper quoted in Globe and Mail, April 21, 2011)

This statement by the leader of our country should surely raise alarm bells in the minds of its people. If this man can decide what issues he will and will not allow to be debated then one wonders what other issues he will decide are forbidden, or not to be spoken of?  The undemocratic rotting smell that emanates from the prime minister’s mouth has now infected parliament--as witness the decision of the sub-committee on Motion 408 that ruled the motion “out of order.” Once again evil begets evil.

Evil is running amok in our country and we are all being tainted by its residence in parliament. “Surely not,” some people might say. “Where is the evidence?” others might ask.  It is on record that 491 babies were born alive then left to die after failing to be killed by abortionists. This was brought to the attention of parliament and the RCMP, and nothing, and I stress NOTHING, has been done to bring the perpetrators to justice. [2]

And our “right honourable” prime minister had this to say on these 491 atrocities:

“‘I think all members of this House, whether they agree with it or not, understand that abortion is legal in Canada and this government, myself included, have made it very clear that the government does not intend to change the law in this regard,’ he said during question period Thursday.” [3]

But because these babies were born alive, in these 491 cases this isn’t a matter of abortion—it’s a matter of infanticide: and that IS against Canadian law.  Mr. Harper should at least know that difference.

So there you have it, once again from the mouth of the “leader” of this country. He knows about this slaughter of the 491 innocents but won’t address it. How sick and perverted are those words from the lips of Stephen Harper? What kind of mind can explain away the horrors inflicted on the helpless innocents? And how sick is it that the most of the MPs in this House of Parliament continue to sit idly by and DO NOTHING about the killings of these little babies? A handful of MPs have spoken out about this but the rest have sat back in cowardly silence. Strange things are happening in that Tory caucus. Some of those who complained they were “muzzled” now say they “admire” Harper. Which makes one wonder, are some of them suffering from Beaten Dog Syndrome where a dog, after it is beaten, comes back to lick the hand of its master, and cowers and crawls on its belly for his favor despite all the evils heaped upon it?

“He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.” -Martin Luther King Jr.

I believe based on the evidence we are in the hands of loathsome political cowards from all the political parties, who will go to any lengths to suppress free speech, democracy and these crimes against helpless innocents. There is an evil political sickness infecting this parliament and it is contaminating the country. Something has to be done to cleanse it and deliver us from evil, or we will continue to sink into the depths of political degradation and this evil of disgusting political cowardice will continue to rule.

Panda Mania

" ‘I want to offer my sincere thanks to the government of China for sharing these two pandas, symbols of peace and friendship, with all Canadians,’ Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Monday, moments after welcoming the black and white bears on the tarmac at Toronto's Pearson airport.” [1]

The two giant Pandas arrived at the airport to an animal farm style welcome, they were greeted by “dignitaries” a band played the national anthem and the right honourable PM was there to greet them. We are told their names are Er Shun and Da Mao.  Our great leader had this to say on panda-ring to the Chinese.

 “Over the coming years these pandas will help us learn more about one another while serving as a reminder of our deepening relationship, a relationship based on mutual respect and growing collaboration.” Stephen Harper [2]

I guess “growing collaboration” with a communist dictatorship is right up Harper’s alley. One wonders how he can have “mutual respect” with a bloodthirsty dictatorship that uses, torture, slave labour, oppresses its own people and has forced abortions. [3]

As a matter of fact on the same day that Stephen Harper was all dressed up to welcome his two pandas there was a story on Lifesite news March 25, 2013 by John Jalsevac headlined: “7-month-old baby forcibly aborted on March 22 in China: graphic photo circulates”[4]

The article went on to state: “Ms. Lü, a 33-year-old Chinese woman whose husband reported the case and released the photograph, was reportedly pregnant with an over-quota child, an illegal act under China’s One-Child Policy.” 

This is a horrendous story, and makes one wonder how Stephen Harper can say Canada has “a relationship based on mutual respect” with this brutal dictatorship. I am sure most Canadians must feel revulsion that Harper is including them in his obnoxious statements to the Chinese.

Still, one should not be surprised anymore by the actions of this “man” and many of his MPs. Mr. Harper and a number of his MPs and other opposition politicians voted against finding out when human life begins. Now this collection of anti-democratic hypocrites are attempting to suppress MP Mark Warawa’s Motion 408 on sex selection abortion.

This is the state of parliamentary “democracy” in Canada today. But hey, we have two pandas to keep us happy and contented in Harperland and they are only going to cost us “10 million dollars.” [5]

They should billet the pandas in parliament  for according to Mr. Harper “these pandas will help us learn more about one another” so they would be right at home in Harper’s political zoo.

The Silence of Politicians on Free Speech and the Supreme Court of Canada

"While the Canadian Constitution Foundation [CCF] does not take any position on the content of the materials distributed by Mr. Whatcott, it believes that it is the right of every Canadian to freely and peacefully express themselves without fear of censorship or persecution by the state. Free expression is the lifeblood of democracies and all forms of expression, especially the offensive kind, needs to be protected. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court disagrees."

CCF Executive Director and lawyer Chris Schafer [1]

The recent off the wall decision by the Supreme Court of Canada in the Whatcott case has been met with silence from our elected representatives. Have they all lost their ability to speak? Have they become so enamoured of unelected judges that they are incapable of speaking up for freedom, democracy and free speech. The wacky words below are from the Supreme Court unanimous decision that said this:

“Truthful statements can be presented in a manner that would meet the definition of hate speech, and not all truthful statements must be free from restriction” [2]

The words above are surely straight out of “Alice in Wonderland” One wonders are the judges fans of fairy tales? Does Humpty Dumpty now sit on the Bench?

`When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, `it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'

`The question is,' said Alice, `whether you can make words mean so many different things.'

`The question is,' said Humpty Dumpty, `which is to be master - - that's all.'

 (Through the Looking Glass, Chapter 6)

There is no doubt in Canada that the unelected judges are the “masters” and the elected politicians are their grovelling gatekeepers over the serfs, who are forced to put up with nonsense in law and poltroons in politics.

Parliament is supposed to be supreme yet it defers to unelected judges and human rights commissions. Why then do we go through the farce of pretending we live in a democracy when free speech is a prisoner of word twisting ex-lawyers masquerading as judges? And human rights commissars who are controlling the conversations of free speech. Something has to be done to free Canadians from the dictatorship of the unelected who have usurped what used to be called a “democracy.”

Still never mind Stephen Harper tells us we have “fundamental Canadian values”

“The Office [of Religious Freedom]will be an important vehicle through which Canada can advance fundamental Canadian values including freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law worldwide.” [3]

Obviously, this guy thinks we don’t know what is going on in this country “freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law…” have become a farce. The Charter of Rights is a joke, the jokers are on the Bench, the clowns are in parliament and so-called Human Rights Commissions are writing the script in this production of nonsense.

Mind you Mr. Harper is not the only political leader to be cravenly silent on the suppression of free speech by the unelected judiciary. Mr. Mulcair of the NDP - a party that has “democratic” in its name -  has also been found wanting when it comes to free speech. And of course one must not forget the new, yet to be crowned Prince of Liberalism, Mr. Trudeau, just like the other political leaders, he has not raised his voice in defence of free speech over the inane words of the judges that said “… not all truthful statements must be free from restriction”

One has to ask what the hell is happening to our country if the truth is no longer a defense? We truly are a country in a state of delusion. But hey, we have been headed that way for some time now. A judge some time ago consulted his imagination and “read in” words not written in the Charter. Now we have another judge, and all of his cohorts agreeing unanimously that truth is no longer a defense, even if it’s true. So what can be done to restore some sanity to our country.  I believe our elected representatives have to start showing some courage and abolish these so-called Human Rights Commissions and remove from the Bench unfit judges who have said, telling the truth is no longer a defense. Otherwise this judicial madness will continue to turn this country into a judicial Wonderland with Humpty Dumpties on the Bench. And we the people will continue to be deprived of our freedoms unless we say loud and clear, “ENOUGH.”

Are These the Actions of a Political Hypocrite?

Recently Stephen Harper announced a newly created “Office of Religious Freedom.” He  was praised for this and was quoted as saying these words:

“Around the world, violations of religious freedom are widespread and they are increasing,” (Ottawa Citizen, February 20, 2013) [1] They certainly are, including here in Canada. Some examples of religious freedom and non religious freedoms under attack in Canada can be seen here [2]

In Canada religious freedom and other freedoms have been under attack for some time. Yet the Harper government seems to have ignored what is happening in its own backyard.

Recently, in the Whatcott case, a case that could affect religious freedom and all our other freedoms in Canada, the Supreme Court of Canada in a unanimous decision said truth is no longer a defence even if it is true. Whether one agrees with Whatcott or disagrees, this ruling could affect us all. Our rule of law and evidence in courts are based on truth. Those giving evidence can swear on the Bible or take an oath.

“A person may, instead of taking an oath, make the following solemn affirmation: I solemnly affirm that the evidence to be given by me shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.” (http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-5/page-4.html )

Yet, our Supreme Court judges say truth is no longer a defence even if it’s true. Therefore if truth is no longer a defence how can the Harper government say this:

“The Office [of Religious Freedom] will be an important vehicle through which Canada can advance fundamental Canadian values including freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law worldwide,” said a background document released by the government.

Ottawa Citizen, Feb. 20, 2013. [1]

These are very nice and uplifting words from the Harper government but are they really just BS to disguise what is really happening in Canada to “fundamental Canadian values?” Let’s look at the words used by the Harper Government in its document.

Freedom:

Free speech has been dead in Canada for some time. The Whatcott decision is the final nail in its coffin delivered by judges, some were appointed by Stephen Harper. His government along with powerful special interest groups has also sided with the Canadian Human Rights (CHRC) against free speech.

“The Attorney General of Canada, the Canadian Human Rights Commission, the Canadian Jewish Congress, the Simon Wiesenthal Centre and B'nai Brith Canada will be intervening in the Lemire case in support of Section 13, arguing that it is a reasonable restriction on freedom of speech” (Canadian Constitution Foundation Letter of April 28, 2008.

Stephen Harper said this about Human Rights Commissions and free speech.

“Human rights commissions, as they are evolving, are an attack on our fundamental freedoms and the basic existence of a democratic society … It is, in fact, totalitarianism. I find this is very scary stuff” (Stephen Harper). [3]

Based on his own words can anyone believe what this guy says?

Democracy:

The Harper “freedom document” also mentions “democracy”   If only that were true in Harper’s Canada. This is a government that prorogues Parliament.

“Three times in three years and twice within one year, the prime minister takes this extraordinary step to muzzle Parliament. This time it’s a coverup of what the Conservatives knew, and when they knew it, about torture in Afghanistan. So their solution is not to answer the questions but, rather, to padlock Parliament and shut down democracy.” Ralph Goodale quoted in CBC news Article December 30, 2009. [4]

The Harper government has also passed omnibus bills with little debate and announced changes to old age security in Davos  to a gathering of the world’s elite before discussing it in the Canadian parliament. Is this “democracy” in Harperland?

Human Rights:

Stephen Harper voted against discussing when human life begins. Is on record as saying this: “As long as I am prime minister we are not opening the abortion debate,…” Stephen Harper quoted in Globe and Mail, April 21, 2011.

One would think that in a so-called democracy any issue should be allowed debate. But it appears that in Harper’s Canada this issue is verboten or forbidden by the “great leader.”  See also the article, “Canada’s Charnel Houses” where 491 babies were born alive after abortions but were left to die. [5] Could we call these atrocities “fundamental Canadian values?” But hey, according to the Harper government we have “human rights!” It is a wonder most of these politicians don’t choke on their own hypocrisy!

Rule of Law:

Are the words “rule of law” just mere cynical words from the Harper government? I mentioned earlier, 491 babies were born alive after surviving abortion In Canada but were left to die. So far no charges have been laid in these atrocities. And Mr. Harper is quoted as saying this:

“‘I think all members of this House, whether they agree with it or not, understand that abortion is legal in Canada and this government, myself included, have made it very clear that the government does not intend to change the law in this regard,’ he said during question period Thursday” [6]

Still Mr. Harper has sympathy for dead ducks. A headline stated: “Dead ducks tar Canada's image, PM says” by John Cotter the Canadian Press, May 2, 2008. The article went on to quote Mr. Harper as saying: "I'm not here to make any excuses for the particular event that occurred over the last few days. It is a terrible event. It is not going to do anybody's image any good," (http://oilsandstruth.org/dead-ducks-tar-canada039s-image-pm-says  )

In closing one can only say based on the evidence on what is happening here in Canada hypocrisy appears to be the forte of this supposed “conservative” government and many other politicians in Canada.   Freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of law look good on paper but in practice they all are victims of human rights commissions, and political and judicial BS. Meanwhile most of the political class and most of the media continue to accept the abominations heaped upon our once great country and its people. God help us all, oops can you still say that, in this Country?

Now a final word from the “great leader” himself, and don’t laugh!

“In the face of these injustices and atrocities, Canada will not be silent.”

Prime Minister Stephen Harper The Epoch Times, February 21, 2013 [7]

Yeah sure, Mr Harper, the cowardly silence from you and other politicians and political parties on the issue of free speech and other issues mentioned here is disgraceful.

Nonsenseland

Being somewhat unsure of where to visit for my annual vacation, I consulted a friend who told me: “You must visit Nonsenseland. It is a place of tolerance, diversity, and equality, has many strange customs and is a land where new rights are created almost daily.” I had never heard of this place. But I decided to go to broaden my knowledge.

My first day in Nonsenseland I decided to visit its capital city, a lovely place called Awtuhwuh. This city was the seat of the ruling powers in the country. I visited their House of Power which was situated on a hill. On entering the House of Power I was impressed by its feeling of decorum and dignity. In the foyer of the house there was a press conference going on. It appeared that some honorable members of the Upper Chamber had been claiming expenses for residences they did not live in. These people were lifetime appointees and obviously were confused over the words “principal residence.” I also saw the Leader of the House of Power, a man who preached “accountability” but voted against any debate on when human life begins. Who also had criticized “gag laws” and was now attempting to gag his own followers. But hey, this is Nonsenseland where ignorance rules!

My second day in Nonsenseland was spent in a wonderful city called Torruntoe. There was much music in the air and a parade was passing through the streets.  I asked a native of Nonsenseland, what is going on? This native appeared to be someone of importance for he/she had lipstick and other makeup on his/her face, was naked except for a leather thong and carried what appeared to be a short leather whip. This native had the words “pride marshall” affixed to his/her hairy chest with a sticker. This person told me this was a very important summer ritual in the city and it was called the Parade of Prideful Ones.

I decided to watch from the sidelines. I saw politicians, police in full uniform and a police chief marching in the parade. There were also other eminent persons marching as well. In the parade there were men dressed as women and women dressed as men and others in various stages of undress of indeterminate gender. Others were totally naked except for footwear. Others were dressed in what appeared to be huge condoms. Some carried signs saying: “Don’t leer, kiss a queer” and some were on bicycles with the slogan, “Dykes on bikes have special likes.”  So I asked a native, “is cavorting naked and making lewd gestures not obscene in Nonsenseland?” I received this reply, “Of course not, this is part of Nonsenseland’s culture and heritage and it has official approval and financing.”

On my third day in Nonsenseland, I decided to go back to Awtuhwuh and visit their Court Building, the judicial workplace of the Supremacist judges. I entered the Court Building and was struck with the solemnity of it all. At that moment a lady, obviously a Supremacist judge, passed by. She looked very, very dignified and attractive in her judicial attire. I asked one of the security persons who the lady judge was.  I was told with pride that she was Judge Dosy and that she was a Bench-member of the Supremacist Court and was known for her intelligence and landmark decisions, one of which was lowering the age of consent to fourteen years of age for anal sex. I thought to myself:  If this is the type of ruling that gets one appointed as a Supremacist judge then they surely are scraping the bottom of the toilet bowl in Nonsenseland. But not wanting to display any negativity on this important landmark decision, I said to the security person, “Oh, what wonderful credentials she has, to be on the bench. Nonsenseland residents must be really proud of her.”

On display in the Supremacist Court building was Nonsenseland’s “Charter of Righteousness,” everybody passing it bowed in respect. Some even stood by it in silent prayer. It would appear this document is the religion of Nonsenseland and that it had been handed down from a Philospher King now deceased.  I was told by a native of the land that this Charter had magical powers that only the Supremacist judges could invoke and that much magic had been performed since the Charter’s inception. I asked about some of the magic. The native then said that because of the magical Charter, men could marry men and women could marry women, criminals in jail had the right to vote, a pervert’s work was classed as artistic merit and that anyone arriving on Nonsenseland’s shores was immediately covered by the Charter. “In fact,” said the native solemnly, “The Charter of Righteousness is a ‘living tree.’” The native also told me that the latest landmark decision by one of the respected Supremacist judges inferred that, “truth was no defense” even it was the truth.  I thanked the native for this incredible information and concluded I was definitely in a strange land where nonsense is indeed normal. Then I went back to look at this Charter of Righteousness. It certainly did not look like a “living tree” to me. I thought to myself it’s more like a piece of paper that one could use in a toiletry emergency. Still, one must be respectful of another country’s beliefs.

On the fourth day I decided to attend an award ceremony at one of the learned University’s in Nonsenseland. I was told this gentleman receiving the award of an “honorary degree” from this university had performed a service that benefited the human race. I asked what that service was and was told this gentleman had devoted his life to serving “Choice.” I asked what this choice was and was told it was a service of “reproductive rights.” Then I realized that behind the nice sounding camouflaged words used; this gentleman was an abortionist, and he made his living from killing the child in the womb. He had also been awarded Nonsenseland’s highest honor for his work on eliminating human life. 

I was thinking Nonsenseland is a really weird country when a bloody butcher is honored and given an award for killing the innocent. Still, they have Human Rights Commissions in Nonsenseland so nonsense must be legitimate. In closing, one must not be too critical of this land, as nonsense, corruption, and depravity are classed as normal here and speaking the truth is, or could be a crime.

I decided to end my tour after the end of the fifth day in Nonsenseland.  I had, had

enough of its culture, customs, honors and justice and realized it was aptly named Nonsenseland.
