We got trouble in River City folks…………………….., or is it Vladivostok?
While most of the West is contemplating harsher sanctions against Russian for their foray into The Ukraine, some economists are warning that Russia is not Iran, or North Korea for that matter, and any damage done to them might boomerang back on Europe!
While no one expects a shooting war with the Kremlin, any sort of a resumption of the “Cold War” would be bad for everybody. (It all depends on how far Putin is prepared to go!)
AS I SAID MANY TIMES BEFORE KIDS, THEY SHOULD CALL ME IN AS AN “HONEST BROKER” TO STRAIGHTEN THINGS OUT! ;>)

It’s a sad day for the Indians folks, but Shawn Atleo’s surprise resignation Friday appears to be rooted in a kind of political battle fatigue that saw the national chief waging a near constant rearguard action against rivals to his leadership of the Assembly of First Nations.
Over the years — and despite his majority re-election — Atleo has had to contend with rivals who don’t just want the chief to negotiate his way to open doors, but want him to smash through them.
That disagreement plagued the AFN’s efforts in Ottawa during the “Idlenomore” protests in January 2013, even though Atleo managed to secure a historic First Nation’s meeting with the prime minister and some of his key cabinet ministers.

The real shame, according to one observer, is that Atleo has unfairly won the reputation of a man who was bought.
“People who try to dismiss him as a sell-out and Harper’s puppet are not speaking the truth,” the observer said.
In taking down Harper’s man, Atleo’s critics may have done their communities a disservice.
First Nations have now lost an advocate with whom Harper was at least willing to meet and listen.

A New Brunswick Mountie who made headlines for smoking medical marijuana while in uniform is facing three new charges and says he plans to sue the RCMP over the way he has been treated.
rcmp-cpl-ron-francis-smoking-marijuanaCpl. Ron Francis pleaded not guilty on Friday in Fredericton provincial court to two counts of assaulting fellow officers in Oromocto on Jan. 12 and breaching an undertaking to not possess or consume alcohol and non-prescription drugs.
LISTEN BUNKY, this is the asshole that INSISTED on smoking a joint while in uniform ……………………….., and now he wonders why he is always in shit with the cops!

Folks, I don’t know if this comes with age, or just not paying attention, but I saw the headline: Slovenia’s prime minister to step down on Monday! Except what I saw was THIS: Slovenly prime minister to step down on Monday!
Believe me folks, this woman is not slovenly by a long shot …………., matter of fact, her, and the former prime minister of the Ukraine, both have that high cheekbone, Slavic beauty women in that part of the world are famous for!

Quebec’s landmarks are going the same way the province itself it going kids!
untitledDOWN THE DRAIN!
Both the Olympic Stadium and Mirabel Airport were built to appeal to Quebec’s vanity, (as well as the Geodesic Dome and Habitat) and quickly slid into disrepair and disrepute.

The Stadium had trouble with the retractable top from the get-go, and Mirabel never got used for anything other than a cargo depot, so it’s no wonder that the government wants to tear it down.
GEE, MAYBE THEY COULD REPLACE MIRABEL WITH AN AIRPORT IN PICKERING!

P.E.I. REPORT

Summerside has announced that they are going to embark on a major re-vitalization of the downtown waterfront!
imagesMIIAGRNUThe Summerside Port Corporation has big plans for the city’s waterfront including green space, a boardwalk, and more integration with the city.
That’s what people want, says Arnold Croken, president of the port corporation.
“The majority of people would say they want to see growth, they want to see activity, they want to see things happening in the downtown core,” Croken said.
“In addition to that, the importance of sight lines to the water, green space, recreational opportunities in and around and near the water,” Croken said.

Down in the U. S. of A. the US House speaker has said he will convene a congressional special committee to investigate the White House response to the 2012 attack on the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
THAT’S RIGHT FOLKS, THEY’RE STILL GOING ON ABOUT SOMETHING THAT WAS A MANUFACTURED ISSUE TO BEGIN WITH ……., JUST LIKE THE WHOLE “BIRTH CERTIFICATE ” THING!
(Republicans say the Democratic Obama administration mislead the public on the nature of the attack….., John Boehner said the Obama administration was “obstructing the truth” on the matter, and we all remember the allegations that Obama was a Muslim born in Kenya!)
Listen kids, if the Democrats were as rabid about stuff as those assholes in the Republican Party, they would still be talking about the Iran-Contra Affair!!!!!!!!
The Republicans have enough real shit to be ashamed of without making up phony issues with which to try and tar and feather the Democrats!
This cartoon perhaps best illustrates the sins of the Right! (This is a classic example of Reagan’s Voodoo Economics!)

YOU CAN RUN, BUT YA SURE CAN’T HIDE BUNKY!
There is spying by the NSA and CSIS, new “face recognition” technology being deployed in all public surveillance spaces, malls, airports, city centers, neighborhoods etc.
On top of that you cannot hide in your car anymore because the cops have camera’s that automatically record the license plate number of any cars that pass them or are seen around crime scenes.
From now on criminals are going to have to walk around with a bag over their heads, and a cover over their car’s license plates!
