Lest We Forget
Posted by: | CommentsOne of my biggest pet peeves is the way society chooses not to remember the fallen soldiers in the wars of the last century. People choose to go about their business every November 11, without recognizing the sacrifice so many men and women around the world made for our freedom.
Every November 11, Monique and I take the kids to the local ceremony here in Bedford — today will be no different. The number of veterans decreases each year and the number of names called out from the honor role increases by the same amount.
I think it’s important to show Nicole and Michael that there is a reason we can live like we do. Literally millions of people have died to give us our way of life — they need to respect that.
Today, I am proud to be Canadian and proud of the sacrifice my grandparents and their families made for our freedom.
A couple of minutes of silence and remembrance is a small price to pay.
Hey Trudeau, more terrorists need your help
Posted by: | CommentsFirst of all, I would like to express my sincerest condolences to the families of all those affected by this week’s cowardly bombings in London. I was shocked and outraged that so many innocent people were once again the target of extremists.
The thoughts of the terrorists quickly brought anger and frustration that some Canadians are openly supporting known terrorists in Canada. Alexandre Trudeau, the son of former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, has offered his support for a man the government considers to be a threat to national security.
Writers Naomi Klein and Avi Lewis are also openly supporting terrorists in this country, going so far as to offer a ridiculous bond for his release.
So Trudeau, Klein and Lewis, what now? Why don’t you take your bond money and fly to London — have a chat with the families of the dead rail passengers and tell them how you feel about supporting terrorists.
Maybe you could offer any of the terrorists arrested over there a $50 bond and of course, the promise you’re sure he’ll be a good boy.
Despite the support these three dumbasses openly show to terrorists in Canada, I want my friends in London to know that this is not the feeling of all Canadians. I do not support terrorism.
Canadians supporting Terrorists
Posted by: | CommentsAlexandre Trudeau, the son of former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, has offered his support for a man CSIS considers to be a threat to national security. Syrian national Hassan Almrei has been held in custody since October 2001.
Trudeau said he would post a bond of $5,000. Wow, really a whole $5,000! Writers Naomi Klein and Avi Lewis have offered a $200 bond and journalist Heather Mallick has offered a $100 bond, according to the CTV Web site.
Are you kidding me!! What the hell are you doing offering a $100 bond!?! If you believe that this man is innocent, why not go all the way for your beliefs. How about this for a deal — if we let this man go and it is proven he has links to terrorists groups then all of you take his place in prison. Don’t talk to me about some sucky $100 bond or $5000 for that matter.
We are talking about terrorists groups that have billions of dollars, what the hell good is a bond of any kind going to do? What would happen if we let them go and they killed people with a bomb? What would these bond-touting Canadians say then?
“Oops, my bad. I really thought he was a nice guy. I never met him, sure, but still.”
For Christ sakes, three of these people admit to not even knowing the accused terrorist. But we don’t have to worry, because Trudeau said that he “is also confident Almrei will comply with the conditions of a release order.”
Trudeau, you are either the stupidist person on the face of the earth or you are on some heavy drugs. Either way, you don’t deserve to speak openly about issues you obviously don’t have the intelligence to comprehend.
These writers and Trudeau are good reasons for all Canadians to hang their heads in embarrassment.
