Cdn Italians Interned In WW2
The attempt to bury the truth about fascism in the Italian Canada community during WW2 has made a reappearance in parliament, and not unsurprisingly it is conservative proposal designed to also hide the truth about Conservative fascism before the war. The Italians who were interred were fascists, even the mobsters were fascists, their whole ideology is fascist and still is. There should be no compensation. they sought the overthrow of the Canadian government in order to derail the war effort so that the overthrow of Britain would follow. If you want to read a detailed assessment of the issue, written by Italians and Italo-Canadian historians, read The Enemy Within. This whole issue is a disgrace. They were guilty. The Conservatives were guilty. There were about 650 Italians interned out of a population of 125,000 or so Canadese at the time. Mussolini's vice-consuls replaced the leadership of every social club in Canada with fascists, so more of them, not fewer, should have been interned. The most powerful of them were left alone to help form the Italian part of the core of George Drew's neo-fascism post-war conservativism. Veterans groups should be outraged. Mulroney tried to bury the history of Conservative fascism by apologizing to Italian Canadians who had been interned, and now, yet another, even more right wing government is trying to bury the past in it's endless efforts to unite the right. As for Quebec in all this, it had a fascist government until 1960.

Harper gets off pot and stench roils out
Harper finally got off his pot and went abroad to find right wing allies at home, only to discover that while he's been away making deals with reactionary business interests in India, the stench of what was in the conservative pot began to waft through parliament and down the hill and into the streets of Canada. Even CTV and the Duffy Del Mastro dynamic duo can't put the king of pork back on his barrel, and nor can the Bush League backer of torture and deregulated capitalism come home and hide the rot at the root of Canadian conservatism because the smell of death can't be concealed by climbing back on his pot in the shithole he has made of the Canadian House of Commons.

Canada: least corrupt nation in the Americas
Until Stephen Harper and the Reform-Con coalition gets through with us.
Tory Hate Mail $6 million and climbing
Tory mailouts on the taxpayers dime that do nothing but spread partisan vitriol across the country have escalated at a rate greater than ever seen before. Put it in the same category as Harpercons - the biggest pork barreling machine in the history of Canada, use every source of tax dollars to attack, attack attack. Does anyone remember when this reform con coalition stood for something ?

Harpercon Global. Inc
Soon the great corporatist crusader will set off on his world tour to unite militarists, bankers and right wing political operatives and so mastermind the end of liberal free enterprise. Harper admitted in Sudbury that these are not times for conservative economics, except he's wrong, these times are when conservative economics are being practised on the grand scale: this is the consequence of Reagan unifying global corporatism and gangster capitalism. Our "Wall" must come down now. Global corporatism must be unchartered, and a cooperative commonwealth created in Canada, based not on statism, but on credit unionism: citizen-members, our taxes, become mutually beneficial fees between members, where bureaucrats are employees,from cleaners to senior management,and where politicians are directors of the board elected by local members, to do things for the greatest common benefit and so rise all ships on the tide that will then be unleashed and we create a world economy where business is personal, rooted in partnerships and associations, commercialism that retains limited liability, in an attempt to consciously create responsible government ie. the greatest equal liberty for the survival of humanity.
