Peter MacKay Our Boy Defence Minister Tut Tuts Trudeau
Our little boy Defence Minister wags his tiny fingers at Justin Trudeau for smoking pot. This small child admonishes a grown man for taking a puff on a joint. 90% of Canadians don't care if Trudeau smokes pot. The other 10% already vote conservative and and are still bothered that the country club let in Catholics and Jews. The mayor of my city hangs out with crack dealers and staggers down the street drunk on weekends. Do you think we care if our PM smokes pot? Maybe if Harper took a puff it wouldn't seem like he has a stick up his ass.
I'm more concerned that our Defence Minister is a 12-year old boy. I'm more concerned that our big toothed, flamboyant Foreign Minister is making an ass of himself around the free world. That our insurance defence lawyer Finance Minister can't balance a budget and denied that we were in a recession.
The Toronto Sun does an editorial that Trudeau is setting a bad example for the kids, while they worship His Worship who, the Globe alleges, was a drug dealer in High School. Was caught in photos using a crack pipe and is all over YouTube hammered to the gills.

Never Did Get a Call From Toronto Western Hospital Dermatology Department
I'm going to report these government employees to the CMA, my MPP, The Minister of Health, the Dermatology society if it exists. They refuse to call me. It has been two weeks since my referral, I begged the doctor not to send me to this clinic. I begged him!
I'm going to return to the clinic and lie prostate in his office and beg him to send me to any clinic in the free world other than the Toronto Western Dermatology Department. I will pay him a $1,000 cash to refer me to any other clinic on the planet.
A friend told me that he recently got a call within 48 hours from another dermatologist to set up an appointment. I'm being blackballed.
I'm going to dedicate the rest of my life to righting this wrong. How do people show up at work and decide they are going to treat people like garbage? Do they understand that they are public servants and that I pay their salary?

Waiting for a Call
My psoriasis is out of control. I need medical assistance. I finally broke down and attended a walk-in clinic and asked to be referred to a dermatologist. I begged the doctor not to return me to my prior dermatologist. I even printed off a sheet with the top 10 rated dermatologists in Toronto. He insisted I return as they have my records and treated me in the past. That was more than 10- days ago. I have not received a call to set up an appointment. I know this clinic is out to get me. They read my Blog when I trashed the clinic, it was one of the most highly read entries I have ever blogged.
I have since taken down the entries after the referral. Not because I don't stand behind what I said but because I'm desperate for treatment. If I don't get a call by next week I'm going back to the walk-in clinic and insisting on a referral to another dermatologist.
I know it takes a while to get an appointment but is should not take 10-days to set up. Do you think I will be put at the back of the line? Do you think I will get fair unbiased treatment?
These people are government workers and can be vindictive. They have you over a barrel and they know it.

Random Thoughts
I am having a battle with two pigeons over possession of my condo balcony. It is a heated battle that has already resulted in the death of an unhatched egg, the destruction of two nests. I have sprayed the balcony with WD40, washed it down with bleach, removed patio furniture. It is an epic battle that will end badly for the birds. They are too stupid to know any better. Their homing instincts will not allow them to seek a safer home. I will spend every waking hour plotting their destruction. I had a 30 minute stare down with one of them as it sat on the telephone pole on the south side of King St. today. The pigeon couldn't fathom my superior intellect thinking of new ways to end its brief earthly existence. It's tiny bird brain unable to fly off to a safer haven.
By the end of season one the Irish Brawler will have had over 70 distinct passengers. It has been a huge success story. It has been expensive as I have upgraded the stereo system, electronics and even the anchor. The prior owners must not have used the anchor as they had an unworkable system attached to the boat. I was able to figure out a solution which has greatly increased the enjoyment of lake trips. This week I am having a new canvass top installed on the Brawler. Next year I will install a swim platform extension. This addition will cement the Brawler as the ultimate party boat. I also do not understand why the previous owners had the walk through windshield sealed shut. I unsealed the window, but need to repair the rubber seals. This will be another expensive repair job.
I'm left wondering why I would be fired and likely serve jail time if I defrauded my workplace, and yet Senators Mike Duffy and Pamela Wallin are unlikely to fired or face criminal prosecution. Daily revelations seem to indicate that Wallin billed taxpayers for non-existent meetings and events where she cancelled appearances.
Sensible people wondered out load why Harper appointed these people with epic egos and outsized sense of entitlements. It was bound to end badly and it has in spades. It would be sweet justice for Stephane Dion should Harper's toady Duffy lead to the PM's downfall.
I never understood why Liberals and NDP didn't boycott the highly partisan Duffy's politics show. He was so over the top in support of Harper that he barely hinted at any pretence of fairness or journalistic ethical behaviour.

EI Con Game Continues
A Nova Scotia think tank has released figures that in the last decade Atlantic Canadians withdrew $12.5B more in EI than they paid into the plan. More than half of that in Newfoundland alone. I have always said that the EI system in this country is a wealth distribution scam gone haywire.
EI is a tax on the hard working people. In Ontario it is nearly impossible to collect. The Harper government increases EI deductions on a yearly basis. This is a tax increase. Harper and his insurance defence lawyer turned Finance Minister Flaherty find it impossible to reign in spending so they increase our taxes through the back door.
We can build a lot of subway track with the EI contributions from Toronto residents, shipped to the East Coast under the guise of insurance. It is a wealth distribution system that discourages labour mobility. It results in labour shortages in a country with high unemployment rates. It is unsustainable and yet Harper doesn't have what it takes to change the system. A system he once criticised as a sense of East Coast entitlement while in opposition. He was right then, but is wrong today.

Hugh Segal & Pamela Wallin
Senator Hugh Segal has set up shop as the chief defender of Pamela Wallin. There is a pattern here, Harper's approved talking heads on the political panels are defending Wallin. They have written off Duffy as damaged goods. Duffy will never be back in the Conservative caucus.
My keen eye for figuring out the Con game has identified two possible theories of why Harper is defending Wallin. One is that he thinks Wallin can redeem herself and resume her role as a fundraiser and political hack in the Saskatchewan heartland. The other more likely scenario is that he is trying to justify his prior defence of Wallin's expenses.
My take is that Duffy and Wallin are radioactive to the Canadian public. Their reputations are in tatters and their sense of entitlement is offencive to ordinary Canadians. Harper brought both of these egotistical blowhards into the senate to do exactly what they did, which is to raise money and bring in the votes in the white bread hinterlands, where their profiles as national talking heads was seen as what passes as celebrity in this country.
Hugh Segal has always been a defender of the elite in Canada. A class that is beyond reproach and above the law applicable to the working class. This explains why he believes that deliberate acts of fraud by certain senators should not be forwarded to the RCMP. He called the RCMP investigation laughable. You can go to jail for stealing bread but a senator committing fraud to the tune of $100'sK should go unpunished.
