Down avec la différence

Liberal ​Happy Days


Down avec la différence!

Say whut?

CTV: The only woman and visible minority candidate in the Conservative leadership race emerged a competitive contender as the results trickled in during the early hours of Monday morning, raising questions about what her achievements mean for the future of the party.

​In this so-touted age of equality (read: political correctness), how does the press get away with pointing out that a Conservative candidate is "a woman and a visible minority", as if we should be surprised that people actually voted for her?

Am I allowed to say that Erin O'Toole is a visible majority and a pudgy male? Did I just channel Jordan Peterson? God(ess) help me!

Leslyn Lewis actually might have caused me to vote Conservative for the first time in my life for the simple reason ... well ... look at her policy list.  There's some good, thoughtful stuff in there, but moving the Canadian embassy to Jerusalem, supporting Israel without even mentioning the Palestinians? Sort of gives a clue as to who funded her campaign.

And what did we hear from the elected "white" portly male?

• "We must continue to point out Liberal failings and corruption, but we must also show Canadians our vision for a stronger, more prosperous and more united Canada" CBC

Where have we heard that before?

• President Donald J. Trump Is Working with the United Kingdom To Secure A Stronger and More Prosperous International Partnership Source Whitehouse

Vice President Mike Pence:

• We’re going to build America back better, stronger and more prosperous (YouTube)

Oh no, not Barack Obama too?

Barack Obama in the new, "inclusive" world (he and Hillary smashing a ceiling together, along with the hopes and lives of people in a few other countries as well) was presented as having more elevated goals, but when it was all over, all he could say was ...

• "I Made the US Stronger, More Prosperous, Safer..." (Source)

Everybody certainly thought things would be different when Trudeau stepped in but what was played up in his case? -  Young ( ageism), slim (fat shaming), handsome - no, not handsome, downright pretty. A real live calendar boy!

If he fails to keep his seat, there's always Hollywood. And I say, You go, "boyfriend". Scat!

So is this discrimination on my part? Am I breaking a law here? Then arrest the media first!

They raved en masse about how Chrystia Freeland's appointment as Finance Minister "broke the glass ceiling".  They told us, flat out, in fact, that she's a woman! Omigawd a female Finance Minister! With all those shards of glass underfoot.

Don't kid yourself. Canada's defacto Finance Minister is an aged, portly male of Jewish descent, accused of being Republic Enemy #1, an acknowledged Nazi collaborator, whose adoring female "grasshopper" has an equally sinister background, as thoroughly outlined by Richard Sanders, longtime (so not young) Ottawa anti-war, anti-arms-trade "white" male activist - (not portly, if I recall him correctly, though have not personally seen him since 2010).

Oh to be in England where you get born into royalty and then you're Queen until you die. And everybody else is there to bow and obey.

​Except when they don't want to.
