CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Catch 22's first look at the election...

"I heard on CJAD this morning that Montmagny-L'Islet-Kamouraska-RDL will be undergoing a judicial recount as Con incumbent Bernard Genereux only beat the NDP candidate by 5 votes. Will keep you posted"

Jacques René Giguère replied to CK Twight's discussion Some background about the Riding and How it Went Con at the 11th hour in the group Montmagny—L'Islet—Kamouraska—Rivière-du-Loup

"I am willing to vote NDP, Green or even Liberal in MAnicouagan in exchange for a Bloc vote in Montmagny"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Another Con past misdeeds surfaces....

"I will play Devil's advocate here; with that "long time member who feared losing party membership" thing...to be fair, this is as bad and not credible as Jane Taber's super seniory Liberal 'insiders'--Susan…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Canada changes name to Harper, provinces to follow

"And of course, that would hinge on Timmy Hudak actually allowing Fordzilla to ride his gravy train. Big if...not sure if Timmy's constituents outside of Toronto would enjoy paying taxes so that Ford's honeymooners don't have to."

"If you're adding opposition vulnerable ridings, I think the West-Island Montreal riding of Lac-St-Louis riding--Liberal Francis Scarpaleggia. Also the riding of newly minted Harpercon senator, Senator Touchdown, Larry Smith. Unlike…"

CK Twight commented on Gary Shaul's blog post Canada in 2041

"It is funny. Smart. Â Ominous as well. Behind every element of humour lies the truth, at least in some form. Â Check out the video below; it's in French, but the language is simple. What you see is a harpercon election…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Even Newt & Conrad Know That Harper is Wrong

"You should read some of the comments at various boards like Natty Po, G & M and such on that tough on crime, lock 'em and cuff 'em and stuff 'em ideology of Harper's. It's largely praised! Harper's message machine…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Paul Godrey's plan to make Canada a Conservative one-party state

"Time after time it gives the BQ two thirds of the province’s 75 seats on less than 40 per cent of the popular vote. Quebec’s federalist voters, a divided majority, have been denied fair representation for six elections in a row. The Bloc…"

Calgary

While Catch 22 has not identified any vulnerable Cons in Calgary, we thought we'd set up a Calgary-wide group to provide an online space for to network, post & discuss news articles and possibly plan activities.

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harper abandons principles, breaks promises in search of total power in Ottawa

"Chretien wasn't nearly as bad though. I don't seem to recall him cutting funding to all NGOs who disagreed with his ideology and don't recall him firing or threatening to fire as many public servants or MPs for…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harper would support death penalty in some circumstances; says Canadians have gotten comfortable with his government

"Yeah, Mike, I'll buy that. The same would go for abortion and same sex marriage rights."

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harper would support death penalty in some circumstances; says Canadians have gotten comfortable with his government

"If anyone really believes he really wouldn't reinstate the death penalty, strip abortion rights, recind same sex marriage, completely remove all social safety nets, I've got swamp land in Florida to sell them."

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Deceptive Harper is the one who badly wants an election

"Taking the highroad just isn't going to work. It never did. Check John Kerry v GW Bush in 2004, as well as Stephane Dion in 2008. I am saying that it will work even less now. This is a political environment of fear and anger and…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harper’s plan to decimate the Liberal Party

"Ah, Liberal-Trudeau derangement syndrome. Yep, it's gotten personal for Harper, in addition. Didn't even think of that after first reading that article. All one has to do is look south of the border at what a free for all US…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harper wants to govern even more aggressively in 2011

"I think an election this spring is most likely. Have you read Gerry Nicholls' column in the Globe this morning? Yeah, I don't particularly care much for the man's politics neither, but what he said actually makes sense. Since he was…"

CK Twight commented on Catch 22's blog post Harperites’ Fortress America deal follows free trade as a second disastrous deal for Canadians

"I read Laxer's post as well. He also debunked another important myth; kool-aid that will be swallowed by Jane and Joe Six-Pack who like to cross the border to go to Big Box stores to shop. If any of those Timmy Horton's crowd think that it…"
