Crescent Canuck (Politics): January 2010
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Friday, January 22, 2010. Rocco Rossi - FAIL! I have not made an in-depth analysis of Rocco Rossi's proposals. Yet But anyone who targets to stop Transit City, which is Miller's only worthwhile initiative that I can fight for, is a FAIL! Anyone who wants to stop Transit City is not fit to be mayor of Toronto. Wednesday, January 13, 2010. Perhaps they care after all. The Prime Minister thought Canadians wouldn't care when he prorogued Parliament. Proroguing of...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): October 2008
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Wednesday, October 15, 2008. US Presidential Debate 3 - Live Blogging. CNN gathers their focus group - another bunch of. Undecided voters. How can ANY one be undecided at this time? Boy, this election is still dragging on. Our election was up and running much later and was done and dusted by yesterday. Another older moderator. Where are the hot young newsreader women? Breaking news - McCain shakes hand with "that" one. Borrowing money from China to send to Sa...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): Ontario Election 2014 Debate Analysis
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2014/06/ontario-election-2014-debate-analysis.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Wednesday, June 04, 2014. Ontario Election 2014 Debate Analysis. I will come out and say it - as an Ontario Liberal party supporter, I was disappointed. First of all, why is the Premier apologizing for the gas plant relocations? It was put into Parliament and voted by all three parties and all of them AGREED. As for Horwath, she should have been flat out asked, "What exactly in the budget are you opposed to? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Crescent Canuck (Politics): September 2008
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Friday, September 26, 2008. US Presidential Debate 1 - Live Blogging. McCain brings up Ted Kennedy (to me it sounds tacky - an obvious ploy to be classy). Did Obama just promise a tax cut for 95% of the USA, AND promise to build schools and bridges and stuff? God this is boring already. They are not going after each other at all. Memorized set pieces. Using a hatchet where a scalpel is needed" - fantastic line from Obama. McCain gets emotional (or tries to) w...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): December 2009
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Wednesday, December 30, 2009. Harper suspends Parliament . again! This is not Windows. that you can restart with Cntrl-Alt-Delete whenever you want to and all is well. This is the engine of our functioning democracy. More than Harper, our Governor General Michele Jean should be ashamed. Perhaps there was a reason to prorogue Parliament last year due to the Coalition. There is no reason to do so now.

Crescent Canuck (Politics): February 2012
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Friday, February 03, 2012. On the Sun - "We can fake this" - News Scandal. So I decided to head over to Blogging Tories to see how the Cons would try and spin the "fake reaffirmation ceremony" that their beloved Sun News tried to pull off. In today's Star, Mallick has a great article on why this is a mockery of our democracy. So let's see how the Tories respond. The first post I checked calls for Heritage Minister James Moore to quit. Why, once more the perso...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): November 2008
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Thursday, November 06, 2008. The Night The World Watched. I remember, eight years ago when news filtered of Bush winning the 2000 election. Most of my Muslim friends in the US had been ardent supporters of the Republican ticket, driven mostly by anti-semitism (I fear) caused by the Gore-Lieberman ticket. So eloquently - "How can 59,054,087 people be so dumb? Yesterday, at 11 pm, as CNN made the historic projection. Now, as the USA embarks on a new era, I am r...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): 3 Reasons Why Canada's Immigration System is Broken
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2011/05/3-reasons-why-canadas-immigration.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. 3 Reasons Why Canada's Immigration System is Broken. 1 When we immigrated there seemed to be a value to speaking either English or French before you immigrated to Canada. Now it seems there's lots of immigrants here who not only can NOT speaking either of those languages, but have no desire to learn. 2 It used to be multiculturalism. Now it's being dominated by a few immigrant groups. Why is an engineer serving fast food? Mezba As a des...

Crescent Canuck (Politics): June 2014
http://crescentcanuck.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
My view of Canadian politics and news events. Monday, June 09, 2014. World Cup 2014 Group Predictions. To win the World Cup. Group A: Brazil, Croatia, Mexico, Cameroon. Group B: Spain, Holland, Chile, Australia. Group C: Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast, Japan. Group D: Uruguay, Costa Rica, England, Italy. This is the group of death. Poor Costa Rica. They play the Group B's Australia role of this group. This is one group where I think the order of matches matter. Uruguay - Costa Rice; victor: Uruguay. Yes, ...
