Traitors Beware!

You have to love this, just for the fact that it will get the lefties panties all wrapped around their heads and stuck in their teeth. They are about to get so spitting mad that it should be hilarious to watch. I hope this passes at the convention just to watch lefty heads explode.


OTTAWA -- The Conservative Party will debate later this month whether to automatically strip violent traitors of their citizenship and try them for high treason.
Citizenship and Immigration Minister Jason Kenney's Calgary Southeast riding association tabled the resolution. It will be up for debate at the party's national convention here on the weekend of June 10.
While none of the 80 resolutions on the convention's agenda would be binding on the Conservative government -- even if they pass -- they do offer a glimpse into the mindset of some of the party's members.
The treason resolution reads: "The Conservative Party of Canada believes that any Canadian citizen ... who commits treason by taking up arms against the Canadian Forces or the Forces of Canada's Allies automatically invalidates his or her Canadian citizenship or claim to Canadian citizenship and, if and when returned to the jurisdiction of the Canadian Legal System, should be tried for high treason under the Canadian Criminal Code."
High treason carries a life sentence.
And while the resolution doesn't name Omar Khadr, some have dubbed it the "Khadr resolution."

Make sure you watch the video on the left for more information on the resolution.

The question is whether a Canadian, either born here or an immigrant granted Canadian citizenship should be allowed to maintain that citizenship if they are captured fighting against our military. Treason.

Personally if I was at that convention I would vote for the resolution. It would be justice to have Khadr come back to Canada to face high treason charges. It would be a way to keep him in jail for life. Don't give me the sob story about him only being 15 when he killed a US medic. He showed the medic, who was trying to help the wounded, no mercy, he deserves none in return. He is a coward and rivals Charles Manson as the most crazy, and fanatical criminal alive. Notice how the media and lefties never ever call Khadr an actual criminal. He is just a hard done by 15 year old kid who went astray.

The guy looks like an actor from the Planet of the Apes. I wonder if he got free dental work while in prison? Maybe braces? Canadian taxpayers can't afford braces for their kids, because 40 to 50% of our earnings go to the government but a killer can, whats up with that?


Parliament has the right to make the laws of our country. The supreme court can only interpret those laws, they can not make new ones. If a law passed by Parliament contravenes the Charter of Rights, then the Charter should be changed, by Parliament, not the supremes.  

Should we bring back the ability to charge people like Khadr with treason to "his" country? You bet we should, why wouldn't we?

Oh, and great job by PM Harper visiting our troops in Afghanistan. It made Layton look like the small little man he is by yelping about the PM not being in Quebec. Layton, get a grip, the Prime Minister of Canada, is a very busy man. Layton is like a rooster in a hen house until the fox shows up.

Conservative Squabbles

This week was not a stellar week for righties. For some reason, some conservatives were upset with PM Harper's speech to a conservative audience, I'm not sure why. You would think that the one time PM Harper could feel like he was among friends would have been at this event. Turns out he's not even safe in a conservative crowd. Shame.

This led me to spend some time thinking about Canada's greatest asset, our military. So, Ontario, I salute you, for your support of our fallen troops. Fight us Conservatives might, but any petty disagreements pale when compared to our troops and their dedication to keeping Canada safe.



When you watch this next video, look for the hands of the families waving to the people on the bridge. If you had any doubt that the families do not notice you standing there on the bridges, that alone should make you realize how much your support means to them. I salute you, and wish I was close enough to be able to be there with you, showing my support.



When it comes right down to it, whether you are a libertarian, a fiscal conservative, social conservative or just a regular conservative, one thing we can all agree on is that our troops have earned our respect and we can stop our squabbles long enough to pause and really think about what we hope to achieve for our country.

They put their lives on the line everyday. A speech by our Prime Minister, that I have listened to, upset some libertarians, I am not sure why. I have read the blog posts, but fail to see what the fuss is about, maybe some libertarian can fill me in. Looking at the big picture, and everything that PM Harper has to put up with, don't you think you can cut the guy some slack?

I am sick and tired of some group or other wanting to pick up their ball and go home. That worked real well last provincial election in Ontario now didn't it? There is no such thing as a sometime, if I am happy, and everything I want is granted to me, Conservative. That is a liberal dressed up as a Conservative. It's easy to be a victim, but it is very very hard to be a Conservative in a lefty world.

Our troops do not care what political party sends them where, they go because they understand that someone has to keep Canada safe. We should honour them, and pray for them daily.

Squabble if you want, but think about what it really means in the grand scheme of life. Think about what it means to Canada. That is the message I got from our Prime Minister.
