I’ve been doing some more research on Kevin Annett and have found what is quite likely the most disturbing story anyone will ever hear about him. I’ve written before about how Annett has slandered indigenous elders like Jan Longboat, which is bad enough- but, today’s story is about how Annett slandered one of Canada’s most …

You may remember a couple of weeks ago when I published my MediaWatch story PressTV’s Joshua Blakeney Gets The Casseroles Wrong!, where I exposed how Blakeney was telling a mistruth about the Quebec student strikes not asking for free tuition. Well, it appears that MediaWatch has had a success- Blakeney has now changed his tune!

As I explained in my article about bush turkeys, they are pesky creatures who, once they start building a nest in your back yard, are very hard to get rid of. That analogy couldn’t have been more true about Kevin Annett- despite the fact that the vast majority of people have seen through his deception- …

On the surface, Rabble.ca looks like it could be a respectable publication. They have high-profile writers like Amy Goodman, Jim Stanford and Judy Rebick. They are funded by unions including the Canadian Auto Workers, CUPE, OPSEU and the BCGEU. Considering this, why do they give so much space to people promoting incarcerated violent criminals?

UPDATE: Krystalline Kraus, of Rabble.ca decided to make my case a bit stronger today- in retaliation for this article, she decided to tweet out Alex Hundert’s website and get it more publicity. Thank you Krystalline, this shows us the quality of journalism at Rabble.ca (meaning, it’s non-existent). ———————————– November 12th, 2011 was the first day …

I’ve been a bit hesitant about Terry Milewski’s reporting on the Robocall issue. On the one hand, he’s done a good job covering the details- but, equally, I’ve always felt he hasn’t been critical enough of both sides. The Lefties were putting a lot of effort into sensationalizing the Robocall issue as the Right was …

The Stó:lō fish story is becoming more wild each day- each day it progresses it seems to me that we are observing an abuse of our court system. Each day also brings us more information that shows how incredibly biased and/or incompetent PressTV’s and Joshua Blakeney’s reporting really is.

There’s been a lot of debate about eco-terrorism this past week. It all came out of an RCMP report that was released on a freedom of information request. Greenpeace was mentioned in this report, and they fought back against it this week– albeit poorly. As usual with the left-right paradigm- both sides of the argument …

There has been a lot of controversy lately about Immigration Minister Jason Kenny’s plans to change benefits for refugee claimants. One of the most prominent (and largest) groups of refugees the past few years have been Hungarian Roma, so they are a big part of the debate. I was shocked when I first heard this- …

Growing up in Victoria BC during the 80’s, I could hardly go a day without seeing or hearing some mention of Greenpeace- a sticker on a hippie’s VW camper, a poster on a neighbour’s wall, or someone speaking in my classroom. I liked Greenpeace too, they brought awareness of important issues to the world, and …
