Ambrose is not running.

She hopes the party will rally around someone who cares about "all families".
Speaking of homophobia one of the candidates said being gay is a choice and the rest of them are outraged.

The Canadian deplorables once again on the outside looking in

Still not sure why a so-called conservative party member can't even talk about marriage being between a man and a woman without being attacked.

Not allowed to bring anti abortion legislation forward - not allowed to say being gay is a choice?

Why would a white natty vote for these guys?

David Staples: Only bold ideas can change the tired face of Canada's conservative movement

Let’s go through some of Peterson’s priorities:

15 per cent flat federal income tax. Peterson’s plan would move all Canadians to the same 15 per cent tax bracket now enjoyed by the country’s lowest wage earners.
Embrace LGBTQ. If someone can’t walk in a pride parade as a Conservative MP, that would have a big impact on them ever being in his shadow cabinet, Peterson says. “There was a sign that a young lady held up (at a gay pride parade) that I thought was a really good one. It said: ‘Pineapple pizza is controversial. Diversity is not.’ “
Bolster our resource sector. Someone needs to make Canada’s resource sector a priority, Peterson says. “A lot of people say we need a voice from the West.”
Best plan on climate change. Greenhouse gas emissions must be addressed, Peterson says. Private technological innovation and investment is the answer here. He supports carbon pricing on large emitters and is open to new nuclear reactors. “The nuclear option is absolutely going to be one of the options that we bring to the table. I lived in France for 10 years, where nuclear has operated and will always operate in a safe, efficient manner.”
Massive deregulation of banking and telecomm sectors and opening up to foreign competition. Peterson asks: We can buy cars from all over the world, so why not banking services? “There’s predatory pricing that we need to open up competition for.”
Win over Ontario. Peterson says he speaks Ontario’s language of business about jobs and the economy. We’ve had an extended boom but many Canadians are within $500 of not being able to make ends meet, Peterson says, while government debt and spending is off the charts. “How can that happen? And when it ends, it ends ugly. We need responsible government that restrains spending and focuses on things that need to be done.”
Win over Quebec. From his time in France, Peterson is fluently bilingual, a plus for Quebec. “They need to hear somebody who speaks their language, who can debate fluidly, someone who can listen.” Most people in Quebec share many values with Alberta, he says. “They are a pro-energy, pro-resource people.”
Zero corporate tax rate. In the United States, President Donald Trump slashed American rates from 35 per cent to 21 per cent, lower than Canada’s rate of 26.5. This led to higher wages, higher dividends, and more jobs in the United States. To balance the budget, Peterson says the government would increase consumption taxes, such as the GST. “Consumption tax is the fairest tax. The more you spend, the more you pay.”
I’m not here to tell you that all of Peterson’s ideas are certain winners. But they move the needle in the right direction. ……….More

It is funny that the real talent seems to be backing away from leading the party, and the second, third, or fourth rate people are eagerly stepping forward to take charge. It almost seems like intelligent conservatives know what soul-crushing, venomous, rhetorical tactics are commonly used against all conservatives or by the media, left wing loons, and post-modernist progs. It's not surprising the smart people don't want to wade into such a race and subject themselves and their families to persistent character attack and accusations of social and identity intolerance. It's unfortunate, and it's a major blow to our traditional political and societal structure.

I believe that for now, the left has won the political war and completely paralyzed any ability for conservatism to germinate in today's society. Old school Marxist communism, wrapped in the shiny new package of post-modernism is firmly taking hold, replacing social transformation and repression through class struggle with repression and control through identity. We'll see what the eventual result comes from embracing of this radical philosophical, societal, political, and economic revolution, and the outright rejection of our traditional system and structure....or our children will.

Scheer Says No 'Free Ride' For Liberals While Tories Look For New Leader
OTTAWA — The race to find a new Conservative leader will not mean Liberals get a “free ride” when the House of Commons returns next week, Tory Leader Andrew Scheer told his caucus Friday.
Scheer’s remarks to MPs in Ottawa focused on national unity, which emerged on election night as a clear challenge for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government after the Liberals slipped to a minority and failed to win any federal seats in Alberta and Saskatchewan.
“Minority parliaments can end abruptly and unexpectedly. We can’t afford to waste a day,” Scheer said. “We’ve got to make the case every single day for why our country needs a Conservative government: for a stronger position on the world stage, for respect for taxpayers’ dollars, and for a united country from east to west.”
Other issues Scheer listed as Conservative priorities in the upcoming parliamentary session include Canada-China relations, and the Liberals’ pledge to strengthen gun control — which he called an attack on law-abiding firearms owners.
Though the tenor of his address was critical of Trudeau, Scheer showed bipartisan support of the government’s tact in the wake of the Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 tragedy...……..More
Alberta MP Michelle Rempel Garner doesn't rule out a run for the Conservative leadership
Alberta MP Michelle Rempel Garner won’t rule out a run for the Conservative leadership after expressing concerns Friday that the current crop of front-runners doesn’t include a candidate from her home province, where the party is most popular.
Rempel Garner’s comments came after the unexpected announcement Thursday from Ottawa-area MP Pierre Poilievre that he would not be running for the leadership, despite weeks of organizing.
“I don’t know what I’m going to do in the next few days,” said Rempel Garner, when she was asked if she would be putting her name forward.
Poilievre attended the University of Calgary and has captured the affection of some Alberta Conservatives. His withdrawal from the race leaves Ontario MP Erin O’Toole and former Nova Scotia MP Peter MacKay as the front-runners...……..More

Mr Scheer will not be talking about using conservative donors money to send his kids to private school.

Neither will anyone else.

It's a closed case and the fact that Harper resigned (without explanation)from the organisation that provided the graft is also a taboo subject.






Oh hemerHOID - your definition of "graft" needs some work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Why dont you spend some time considering the THREE BILLION DOLLAR LIE-beral ADSCAM THEFT??????????????????


You rcall that surely????????????????


Chretien LIE-beral bagmen illegally took THREE BILLION DOLLARS out of the Human Resources Ministry.............


and NO LIE-beral party member - including the LIE-beral Minister in charge NOTICED ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


UNTIL AFTER THE MONEY WAS GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


That LIE-beral adscam money was TAX REVENUE that we were OBLIGATED TO PAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


But the money GIVEN VOLUNTARILY BY DONORS TO THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY ...........................


IS GIFT MONEY - YOU GIVE OR NOT AS YOU PERSONALLY CHOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And the party spends thaqt GIFT MONEY as it sees fit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


And enabling Scheer to keep his kids in their school - and among their long term friends............................


and not moving the kids all around the country - IS BETTER FOR THE KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Statistics tell us that each time YOU MOVE A KID TO A NEW SCHOOL DISTRICT........................


YOU REDUCE THE KIDS CHANCES of graduating from high school by ONE PERCENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


It is proof of your DISHONEST NATURE and your unhealthy enthusiasm for LIE-beral PROPAGANDA..................


that you CANNOT HONESTLY DISTINGUISH BETWEEN CASH WE ARE COMPELLED TO PAY........................

Here is an article illustrating how completely out of control things are getting at TCHC - the largest govt owned and operated slum landlord in all of Canada!!

With some comments of my own in brackets):

TCHC is the best definition of insanity

By Sue-Ann Levy

Published: September 12, 2019. Updated: September 12, 2019 6:40 PM EDT

Filed Under: Toronto SUN/ News/ Toronto & GTA

A report to the Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) board Thursday shows that outstanding arrears jumped 12.3% from last July to the same time this year.

(In other words the number of tenants learning to game the system is INCREASING EVERY YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

The dollar value climbed to an obscene $15.4-million from $13.7-million last year, says the report, which also shows that 9,900 or some 17% of all units in the TCHC portfolio are in arrears.

(Uh huh- and one wonders how many of those arears units are held by gang bangers who are DELIGHTED that TCHC has decided it CANNOT EVICT them for any reason “since they have no other place to go” and are dependent on govt!!!

CEO Kevin Marshman conceded that 2/3 of those arrears have gone beyond 30 days and 1/3 beyond 120 days.

(Ah yes- just like civil service union HOG demands - ever UPWARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

This is abundantly shown by the fact that, as noted Thursday, the average value of arrears now going to the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) has jumped by 31% or is now an average of $3,640.

That equates to nearly 10 months rent if you consider average TCHC rents are around $400 per month.

(Isnt it ODD how govt keeps telling us they are aiming for 2 percent inflation - but then IF we get a pay raise it is maybe one percent - and when HOGS want money it always ends up as 3 percent or more - meaning 300 percent higher pay raises for HOGS than we get?? With such numbers - it takes only a few years for HOGS to be getting WAY MORE weekly PAY than we ever will!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

“There is a delay getting to address initial arrears that are coming,” Marshman said.

No kidding.

But what really made me realize that TCHC is the best definition of insanity — that is, saying or doing the same thing and expecting a different result — was Marshman’s explanation for the delay.

(This is LIE-beral policy in action- Socialist minded LIE-berals are bullies who tax harass us because we are busy and have lives and no time to stand up to them - but the gang bangers will not be bullied- they have no real job and own nothing and have nothing to lose - so they can afford to defy the HOGS - especially since LIE-berals REFUSE to evict non payers or convicted criminals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

When asked by board member John Campbell whether there is an action plan in place to reverse this, the CEO said the arrears are “structurally designed to go up” — blaming the 2010 eviction and death of Al Gosling and the subsequent 2013 and 2014 Ombudsman reports for their focus on maintaining tenancies instead of evicting tenants for non-payment of rent.

(Gosling was a sick old man- exactly the sort of CLIENT that TCHC was designed to help- and rather senile Gosling failed to properly fill out some govt paperwork- and lost a portion of his meagre income - and then fell behind in his rent payments and NO HOG could be bothered talking to him or finding out what was wrong!!!!)

(But our brave and ALWAYS socially responsible HOGS are not afraid of a sick old man and so they EVICTED Gosling- and he was to tired and bewildered to seek other aid and so he curled up out of sight on the cold concrete in a stairwell of the building he used to live in - and DIED THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Remember Gosling the next time TCHC tells us they cannot evict gang bangers- and MUST give them some place to live -even IF THEY DON’T PAY RENT!!!!!)

“At TCHC we try to maintain tenancies … we are negotiating repayment agreements and (that means) we stay in arrears,” Marshman said.

Fact is, while interim CEO in May of 2017 he said pretty much the same thing — blaming the shifted focus and the repayment process for the $12.9-million in arrears, which were 14% higher than the year before.

(This is ONE MAJOR REASON why Toronto Silly Hall wants MORE GRAVY from Ford!! So they can cover their fiscal MADNESS!! Why are we supplying rent free housing to THUGS????????????????????????)

As I wrote at the time, the 10,332 units in arrears comprised the same 18.9% noted by the Ombudsman for 2012 when she penned her two reports.

Clearly, there is no action plan.

(Action plan?? SURE there is- it is this: BUY VOTES for LIE-berals at any price - and grab GRAVY FOR HOGS - regardless of debt levels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

LEVY: Everything old at TCHC is new again
EDITORIAL: Evict the criminals from Toronto’s social housing
LEVY: Same story, different day at TCHC
LEVY: Empire building alive and well at TCHC

TCHC officials are not the slightest bit proactive about following up with tenants who let their rents slide. I’d venture to say they are downright lazy about doing so, and would further suggest if it was their own money we’d see an entirely different attitude.

(Reality is you cannot get rent money fro a drug addict who has already spent the welfare cheque!! And you cannot get rent money from a gang banger if you are afraid to approach and ask for money!! TCHC impotence reveals the ugly under belly of all LIE-beral policy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Marshman said there were things within the arrears process they could do better and that they are conducting a “significant review” of the process.

However, given that he knew about the problem in May of 2017 and did nothing, I don’t hold much hope.

The same goes for safety and security measures.

The report notes that between July 2018 and this year, there has been a 62% increase in crimes against property. Crimes against people were up 24% and serious violent incidents jumped 50%.

(Well - this does explain why TCHC is not wasting money on building repairs!!!!! Why spend scarce HOG gravy on repairs- just to satisfy thugs and vandals who don’t believe they should have to pay rent in any case!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(Its just too bad about the sick and crippled old folks like Gosling who are trapped in this mess and cannot escape!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Marshman said that’s due in part to the increased presence of Community Safety officers which TCHC officials make tenants feel more “confident” reporting the crimes.

That may be so.

But when Marshman was asked about the “solve” rates of those crimes that are report, he said he didn’t know the answer.

(Uh huh- and would YOU report a crime if you knew the Safety Officers went home at 4pm and the THUGS you reported would be at your door at 6pm to forcefully discuss your ideas about “social responsibility”?? TCHC tenants have been complaining for YEARS - about how thugs intimidate them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Senior security official Allan Britton told the board the police investigate most of the crimes that occur on their property, and then he would ask the police to let them know whenever a crime is solved.

For heaven’s sake, what is wrong with TCHC officials?

(The only honest solution is SEPARATION of thugs and victims!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Given the heavy demands on police, would it not be far better for TCHC security officials to be proactive and follow-up with police — especially considering security is supposed to be a priority.

To reiterate: TCHC is the best definition of insanity.

(TCHC is simply doing it best to manage - within the INSANE Social Justice Warrior frame work set up by power mad and vote hungry LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/peter-mackay-toronto-pride-parade-1.5443039

Peter MacKay announces he will march in gay pride parades.

What an historic break through
MacKay said he's applied to the parade organizers for permission to participate. If he gets it, and if he wins the leadership contest — to be held the day before the parade, on June 27 — he'll be the first permanent federal Conservative leader to participate in this sort of LGBTQ rights celebration.

"Pride parades are important," MacKay said in a statement.

"We live in a world where sexual orientation and gender identity are still used by tyrants and bigots to belittle and oppress. In Canada we are lucky to have a society that has grown more tolerant, more accepting and more understanding, but there is still more work to be done."
