Well, THAT'S embarrassing.

 It seems there is a current trend in politics for people in power to come across as power hungry, win at all costs types.
There is certain level of disdain for the rules and the public trust.

The current theme seems to be "I'm in charge and I'm right and I don't have to answer to anyone"

Now, I've got a problem with this on several levels. Obviously I resent a public figure who thinks they are not accountable to the public. In my view, we hired you. You work for us.

I have a problem with  public figures who disdain the rules. The rule of law, and the rule of parliamentary procedure are not negotiable. They are not to be applied selectively. That is the definition of tyranny.

The biggest problem I'm having at this moment, however is embarrassment.

Why am I embarrassed you ask? Well, Internet. I'll tell you.

I'm embarrassed for my country. As if our leader's decisions to pull out of Kyoto and the Anti-drought convention wasn't bad enough,currently we have the audacity to claim we have the moral authority to be in third world countries "helping them toward democracy" as Peace Keepers and as Elections Canada Officials.

But the reality is that we are living under a government that got it's mandate through fraud and voter suppression. Whether Justice Mosley has ruled that the fraud he found altered the outcome of the 2011 election or not is moot.

The point is that there was Election Fraud. In Canada.

Let that sink in for a moment.



We look foolish on the world stage.
Our hard won reputation for fairness, integrity, and honesty is swirling the drain.

The question is:
What are we going to do about it?
