Boy It’s Really Getting Strange /Scary Out There. C’est Le Silence !!

Like The Times Colonist Newspaper (Victoria , British Columbia , Canada) will not respond to my rebuttal several weeks ago to their article on vaccines . ‘One time ‘ they would carry my articles. What’s up? I thought the fourth estate was all about robust debate.

The new Leader of the BC Conservative Party has not answered my two e-mails to him , one last fall and the other in the last few weeks .  Last fall I wrote him recommending that he criticize the Minister of Health and the Premier on vaccine and health policy not the Public Health Officer . As a seasoned politician (?) he should know the PHO reports to the Minister and the Premier and it is they who report to the Legislature and the people. Criticize them!! Then he tells a news internet provided that I did not know anything about BC Politics—-I wrote him to let him know that I was a member of the BC Conservative Party long before his sudden conversion. Do you think I heard back from him?

Then there was/is Pierre Poilievre, leader of his majesty’s  opposition in the Federal Parliament,  who refuses to answer any of my e-mails sent to his parliamentary office. I wanted to know if he would propose an amendment to the Conflict of Interest Act whereby the loophole would be closed allowing MP’s who break the law and continue to serve in the Parliament. Right now the PM has broken the Conflict of Interest law 5 times and still serves in the Parliament. I mean if he , Poilievre, likes to go around Canada preaching accountability and transparency perhaps the best place to start is with the MP’s like himself , first —-and while he’s at it perhaps he could see to it that his Party publishes on the Party’s website the annual audited statements of his Party. 

So there you have it———Press, Provincial , and Federal. And I could go on!!!

We are being badly served even by those who are not in power ——and two of them, the polls say , will soon be in power.

  1. Imagine that! Politicians who ignore the electorate, particularly a politician who has been one himself and was involved in formulating our Constitution. 

    I said it before and I’ll say it again. 

    Most politicians are good for two things: 1) Making Promises and 2) Breaking Promises.

    Few, if any, can be bothered to keep promises! You Mr. Peckford seem to be one of a dying breed.

    Anyone surprised?

    • I think I misspoke in my comment above. I should have said … Politicians who ignore the electorate, particularly a member of the electorate who hasbeen a politician and was involved in formulating our Constitution.

  2. John Rustad will be in Duncan Wednesday, April 24, for a rally at 6 pm.

    If you aren’t busy come along and see if you can get a face-to-face reply.

    We can put you up if you don’t want to drive home after the festivities. We plan to address the purge of Dr. Steven Malthouse during the meeting.
