If It Saves Just One Life, It Is Worth It.

Dr. Bennett, you have an appointment....with some violent criminals. You can yap all you want about crime rates, but until you actually visit a prison, keep your yap shut. Typical Liberal, bellyache about Conservatives being tough on crime and forget to actually talk to the ones most involved, the victims. Then she needs to go to a prison and talk to the inmates, she will be shocked with the crowded conditions they have to live in, that should get her little Liberal heart beating fast so she can start a group advocating better prisons.

Statscan's "Crime Severity Index", which tracks violent crime, also dropped to its lowest level ever since that index was created in 1998.
"Yet we have a Conservative government trying to implement policies based on ill-informed ideas instead of evidence," said Liberal MP Carolyn Bennett.
"Conservatives continue their fear-mongering in hopes of scaring Canadians into accepting severe and ineffective crime legislation. The omnibus crime bill planned for fall will only exacerbate prison costs."

 Liberals blast the Conservatives for getting rid of the useless long gun registry, by stating...."if it saves just one life, it is worth it". They should also apply that same logic to prisons. If keeping one violent criminal behind bars for their full sentence, "saves just one life"... it is worth it!

How about this unhinged Judge, who couldn't wait 3 minutes for a prosecutor?

An Ontario Court judge, in an apparent fit of pique, has tossed an entire docket’s worth of guilty pleas.
The incident happened Thursday in 202 court in Newmarket, north of Toronto, where a dozen people, some of whom had already pleaded guilty and were slated for sentencing, were abruptly released.
Ontario’s attorney-general’s ministry is already “taking steps to have a court review the dismissals,” spokesman Jenn Bell said in an email, with a view to getting the charges “back before the court quickly.”
The courtroom is solely dedicated to guilty pleas.
Apparently furious that assistant Crown attorney Brian McCallion was late returning from a recess, Judge Howard Chisvin abruptly dismissed the charges for what he called “want of prosecution.”

 This is Liberal justice? Free guilty people because a Judge was made to wait a few minutes? This judge should be fired. Especially for a past ruling:

Judge Chisvin, who was appointed to the bench in 2004 after an 18-year stint as a defence lawyer, is no stranger to controversy.
Three years ago, he set free a man who was facing four charges of assault, three of threatening and two of mischief in relation to a domestic dispute because the judge ruled he had been denied a properly speedy bail hearing.
But Judge Chisvin didn’t only release the man, also ordered the Crown to pay his $12,000 legal costs as a penalty for what he called its “lackadaisical attitude.”
Three months later, the same fellow, one Davood Zarinchang, was being sought by York Regional Police for attempted murder in connection with a violent home invasion. The revelation that he’d been released not long before by Judge Chisvin caused a brouhaha.
A headline in the Toronto Star on Feb. 5, 2008, read, “Warrant for man released by angry judge.”
Mr. Zarinchang was eventually convicted in connection with the violent home invasion and sentenced to seven years.
And in the spring of last year, the Ontario Court of Appeal ordered that he also stand trial for the charges Judge Chisvin had thrown out – and reduced the amount the Crown had to pay for Mr. Zarinchang’s legal bills to about $3,000.

 So, the Judge releases a violent criminal and 3 months later that same criminal gets arrested for ATTEMPTED MURDER? Dr. Bennett can harp all she wants about statistics that show crime decreasing, that is her right, but I want her to talk to some criminals first, she might be shocked about what they have to say. Too bad she is all spit, and no shine!

Here is an idea, Dr. Bennett should go undercover into a prison for the month of August, live with the inmates, talk to them, see how crowded the prisons really are, and then come back and spout off about no funds needed to upgrade those prisons. She should spend the month in a provincial prison, not a federal prison, because from what I hear, the provincial prisons are hellholes compared to the federal ones.

MP's go on fact finding tours to places like Greece, Italy, and France all the time. It is time for them to go on a fact finding tour into our prisons. I bet none will, it's not an exotic enough location, kind of like the Greens, never holding a conference in the NWT in January. 

Maybe an actual journalist could do a little investigative reporting and talk to some real criminals, convicted of real crimes, to see what they think of the prison system, and while they are at it, they might want to talk to some prison guards, parole officers, etc. It might be an interesting article, instead of the garbage we usually get from journalists.

A Long Tradition Of Bullying!

So, I was watching some of the videos I have captured of question period, and it appears that the bully boys have been after Helena since 2009, way before the Rahim arrest. Can we call it targeted assassination of female Conservative MP's abilities yet? Here are a few samples:





And then we get the biggest bully boy/girl, Dr. Bennett



Then she gets into big trouble and refuses to apologize for her behaviour:

Part 1:


Part 2:


It is clear that the opposition target female Conservative MP's. They had it in for Helena and the media are continuing to follow the Liberal lead and smear her no matter what the evidence might turn out to be. Personally, as a female, I am disgusted.

The Iceman, has the goods on the reason the charges were dropped against Rahim, it seems the police DENIED him his right to talk to his lawyers, a very big no no.

No wonder females don't go into politics. Why leave your children just to get smeared by the bully opposition.

Make An Informed Decision For Your Kids!

While the Liberals are busy fear mongering, and then having to apologize for it, parents are trying to make informed decisions about H1N1.

Liberal MPs apologized Wednesday for distributing a household flyer that attacks the government’s handling of H1N1 among aboriginals with the slogan “No vaccines, just body bags.”

The flyer, mailed as a message from Liberal health critic Dr. Carolyn Bennett, features a picture of body bags in a lab and a sick aboriginal child.

Grand Chief Ron Evans of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs told a parliamentary committee the flyer was “very disturbing...it’s really troubling to our people.”

The pamphlet arrived on doorsteps after an investigation into an incident in which an official ordered 100 body bags for a First Nations community in Manitoba struggling with an H1N1 outbreak. The investigation concluded there was no ill will and the number was a miscalculation.
.......
But Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq wasn’t satisfied. She told the CBC, “We are in a pandemic situation where Dr. Bennett should know better.

“First Nations communities should not be used as punching bags for a political party.”

Good for Minister Aglukkaq, this has been made into a political issue by the Liberals from the get go. I'm afraid Dr. Bennett is a politician not a doctor, even if she has the degree. How childish and dangerous for her to be sending a flyer like that when we have a serious health crisis happening.

My husband and I have been discussing the vaccine for our boys. About 2 weeks ago, my oldest stayed home not feeling very well, but he had no fever or vomiting, then my youngest came down with the same thing, then both my husband and I started feeling bad but not bad enough to stay home, we were all just mildly under the weather, no fevers. So, did we all have H1N1? If so, none of us need the vaccine. Problem is that testing to see if you have H1N1 has stopped and the assumption is that if you have the flu, it's H1N1.

Here is an article that I found very helpful. Is it swine flu? When parents should call a doctor

How do I know if my child has swine flu or a regular flu?

Without laboratory testing, it's difficult to tell the difference between swine flu and seasonal flu. And with the strain established in communities across Canada, doctors are no longer testing to determine which types of flu people have.

But because the H1N1 is circulating so widely and "pushing out" other strains, chances are good that if you catch the flu in the next couple of months, you've caught swine flu.

The symptoms of swine flu in kids older than five are similar to those of regular flu. They are:

* fever of 38 C (100.4 F) or higher when measured orally
* coughing and sore throat
* fatigue
* lack of appetite
* sometimes vomiting and diarrhea, especially in younger children

Make sure you read the rest of the article, it's very informative for parents. I asked my youngest how many kids were missing from his class today, he said about 11 out of 30, so it appears the flu is here. Now, the question is, have we already, without knowing it helped to spread the flu? Or, was it something else and we should still get the vaccine? In the end, you can consult all the doctors you want, but the decision is yours to make. We are waiting for the people really at risk to get their flu shots before we make our final decision. If we have already had H1N1 and recovered, then no need for us to take up someone else's spot in the vaccine lineup.

All the information is available for those who want to make an informed decision. Look at the sidebar of the above article, lots of links are available.

Question Period: Liberals Hide Controversial MP, Attack Females

Where's Dr. Bennett? Where is her apology? Hidden agenda by the Liberals anyone? Puffin poop being shoveled into the great unknown. One rule for Liberals, another for Conservatives.

Personally, I am disgusted by the continued attack on Helena, while Dr. Bennett hides behind her feminist buddies. We have had 3 Ministers attesting to the fact that she was mocking a Minister, but it has been swept under the carpet with all the Adscam puffin poop. The opposition are bullies, they pick on Conservative females, and then proceed to yell about gender equality.



The Bloc goes ballistic because a piece of history doesn't agree with them. They get called on it, and can't take the heat. If this video is an indication of what it means to be progressive, count me out.

Conservative women are strong, and refuse to be victims. Liberal females are all about being victims, especially with this "pay equity" garbage. We already have pay equity, it's the law, so what are these feminists belly aching about? It seems that secretaries do not get paid as much as engineers, so Liberals are demanding that they get equal pay for unequal work.

My advice to women, get educated. Stop playing the victim.
