Hopefully this will open the eyes of the majority of Canadians,who consistently vote this scum in, time after time. God, I hope so.

I guess the question to our Canadian readers is how to get this information widely disseminated in Canada.

Even if the majority of Canadians finally open their eyes, it will not change much.

What do you think, why Canada allows massive immigration but provides no skilled jobs for immigrants but settle them mostly in Toronto on social assistance?

Methinks it is creation of Liberal voting machine. The voting system by ridings will provide enough votes to re-elect this scum over and over again.

Nah No way! The Liberals have successfully painted the Conservatives as a bunch of bible thumping red neck George Doubya Bush wannabes hell bent on turning back the clock for women, minorities, gays and immigrants. They made themselves out to be the party that will protect your rights from the big bad american wannabes! And If I may say so (I can since I am Canadian) I believe that 60% of Canadians and 90% of Quebecers are bloody dillusional for buying into this bovine scatology!

the gigs up. These Liberals in name only (they are adherents of the socialist religion that is preached and practiced in Europe all in the belief that it will make them "less american")are very similar to the revoluntionary party in mexico that ran as a amjority gov't for 70 odd years. Well we have a bit of the same here._

Canadians passively vote the same criminals back in every time. "What can you do?" they will say with a sigh. Just give them their lollipops or promise them that you'll take them away from the neighbours so nobody will have anything -- and bash the Americans -- and they're happy.

I've lived up here for 6 years and I can't believe how passive they are, but it's true.

It is illegal to spread this info in Canada. The judge in charge of the inquiry has imposed a gag order. There is talk the BQ will raise the issue in the House of Commons which will for all intent and purposes break the gag.

Absolutely, if you take as an example the Ballistic Missile Defence program that was conceived by Bill Clinton (who Canadians love!) and supported at the time by Paul Martin, it is incredulous that the same guy now (and some Canadians-the polls are all over the place on this one) will not support it for the simple fact I believe that there is an utter disdain for GWB among a large group of Canadians thus he does not want to be seen too associated with GWB!

Pathetic what passes for politicians in Canada!

Well, nothing stops Canadians from reading Captain's Quarters or Instipundit. And if O'Reilly just happens to pick up the story on Monday, Fox News is now on in Canada.

This publication ban is idiotic. Why not just hold a closed session? Something just seems wrong about allowing the media to be somewhere but not allowing them to report. Rumors are often easier to spread than the truth (which might come back to bite the Liberals).

Americans do exactly the same thing.

The ban is in place because some of those who are testifying also face criminal charges related to their testimony. After the trials start the and the juries are sequestered then the info can be released.

Then why hold a public inquiry including the testimony in the first place? Why not go to a closed session for the testimony? The publication ban is idiotic way of dealing with a potential poisoning of the jury because it will either lead to rumors or backdoor attempts to get the truth out. Rumors might hurt the Liberals and Jean Brault more than the truth, though.

Prime Minister Paul Martin, himself a Liberal, appointed the Gomery Commission to investigate these charges...

In the U.S., this phase would be equivalent to a grand jury hearing -- which is a closed hearing and it is illegal to divulge the testimony.

The difference is that Canada is holding these hearings in public, but banning publication of their contents. The same effect, more awkwardly achieved.
