Oh, I've nothing against Sackville and didn't know of its African-Canadian history. I just meant that since I lived on the "Eastern Shore" with no locality named Sackville, it would be neat to have one of those yard signs with "Eastern Shore" on it.

FWIW, there was a large contingent of Loyalists from Maryland who settled in New Brunswick and had a settlement named "New Maryland" if memory serves.

"The Tories should hire you as a consultant; looks like they could use the help."

I don't think the Tories will need my help.

The Fed Libs skrewed the Provincial foot soldiers with their interference. So bad the last time that the Sikhs and Chinese will be Tory this time around.

Man I can't believe how stupid they were.

Burnaby, Surrey and Richmond are Chinese and Sikh territory
and they have the bucks. What were they thinking?

Plus their candidates have local an international contacts. They (the Sikhs and Chinese)are much more connected provincially and internationally than some media dweeb in Ottawa printing brochures for the Liberal party.

I'm beginning to understand how people in Montana feel.

Not to presume on your knowledge of Sackville.

I first heard about Sackville from a friend of mine in the sixties.

He was from the area and they had a tradition called 'brooming', where they would go to Sackville in a pickup truck and a guy would stand in the back of the PU with a broom.

When they came across a black women hauling here groceries home from the local store they would hit her with the broom.

Here's the rub.

If they dropped the broom they had to go back and pick it up.

Invariabley the black woman would kick their ass into the middle of next week.

It was a racist sport but the odds of survival were slim.

[Heatseeker]

Sounds rough. Though our 'Eastern Shore' had a lot of racial strife too - Google 'Cambridge riot' to see what I mean. :(

[beaver fever]

Not rough at all.

The Sackville blacks gave as good as they took.

Honest, hardworkers.

They made no apologies and they have always lived by their merits and gave up the slave mentality long ago.

Same with BC blacks. They were people of substance and character and didn't take sh** from anybody.

Much to be admired.

[Heatseeker]

Same here. We're working on getting our Lt. Governor, Michael Steele, elected to the US Senate.

Re my post #25:

1) Anyone who says racism in Canada does not exist is uninformed.

2) Anyone who claims that blacks can't form self sustaining and profitable communties is also uninformed.

It all comes down to hard work and strong family values.

There is nothing black or white about that.

[Heatseeker]

No disagreement here, though I would add a #3, which is that for obvious historical reasons, the black experience in Canada is not necessarily comparible to the one in the states.

On a lighter note, just had a look at the New York Times article on the Canadian vote, and they located it in Toronto. Silly me, I thought the capitol had moved to Ottawa a while back.

[beaver fever]

Ottawa isn't the capital of Canada. That's just where the bureaucrats live and they can't wait to get out of the city on Friday.

[bill1952]

Agreed x2. But don't forget the massholes.

Looks like you're drinking up either way. Kind of twisted isn't it?

[ExSoldier]

Okay, I'm a bit confuzzled. I teach Advanced Placement American Government and Politics in a southern inner city high school, so I don't really keep up with what the Canucks are doing to destroy their own country....unless if affects my country. Like their feeble attempts to get us to follow their oh-so-successful lead on gun control. If the liberals have lost in Canada, then what does this mean for the gun registry? Is CCW and reciprocity with the USA on it's way?

I thought not.

See, UK, Canada, and Australia are all on the same one world government, globalist parade. They seem to have a far greater supply of uninformed, MISinformed and plain stupid sheeple which not only allow this but encourage the process! I think that they in truth have only one political party....the Liberals. There only remains a question of degree and the timing for worldwide progressive reform.

No disagreement from me re the fisheries. What's happened to the Grand Banks is an utter disgrace. Of course the Spanish are doing the same to European waters too.

[Sthitch]

The reason I used the word wrestle as opposed to snatch is that I trust that the Conservative party will no wait until the last minute to blow this opportunity. I have a feeling that they will do almost everything wrong leading up to the election. When I think of a snatch, I think of a last minute gaff that throws the election. I sure hope that I am wrong, and they are able to finally put Canada back on the proper track.

[kindred]

[Betcha the Liberals win the upcoming elections. A majority of Canadians are hopelessly wedded to socialism - just as their European comrades are. Canada, at least for the time being, is basically hopeless.]

Liberalism is a world wide moral disease and results in heavy taxation without representation and bloodletting. There are so many of the ignorant in this world who do not know what the basis of liberalism truly is,many liberals who are deceived by the liberal socialist left. Hitler was a liberal socialist also and a fascist and would fit in with todays liberal left perfectly, some day many will realize the left is against their interests in all things that are good and right. If one believe's that the family unit consists of one man and one women and their children, you should not be a liberal. So grow up.

New poll:

Liberals 31%
Conservatives 31%



And there are only 56 days left.

[concrete is my business]

I hope the Christmas season highlights the Liberals and the NDP as secular socialist hypocrites.

The Liberals motto should be "Do as I say, not as I do".

Their long tenure has done damage to Canadian credibility and loyalty.

PM Martin has to run a negative campaign and it could backfire some.

Good Luck, Mr. Harper.

Canadian Conservatives Defeat Corrupt Liberal Government

Boy, I'm seeing and hearing THAT headline a lot today.

Not.

[polymuser]

Liberal Canadian Government Falls after Historic No-confidence Vote in Parliament

How about that headline?

There's NOTHING on Yahoo's front page. It's way down on CNN's page under 'World' as 'Scandal brings down Canadian government'. At ABC, it's in 'More Top Headlines' as 'Canadian Government Falls'. How about other MSM outlets?

Hey, it's only the country on our northern border. No big deal. Move along, sheeple. Nothing to see here.
