Looming Bush visit sets Ottawa aflutter (Liberal MP stomps on Bush action figure on TV)
CBC ^

Posted on 11/17/2004 6:02:17 PM PST by Grig

OTTAWA - The reception President George W. Bush can expect later this month when he makes his first state visit to Ottawa is likely to be mixed, and that is causing some concern on Parliament Hill.

Carolyn Parrish stomping on a George Bush action figure as part of a This Hour Has 22 Minutes skit. At least one Liberal MP will find it difficult to hide her distaste for the recently re-elected U.S. president. Carolyn Parrish didn't even try on Monday, playing along with CBC-TV's This Hour Has 22 Minutes by stomping on a George Bush action figure.

Parrish has been outspoken in the past, calling Americans "bastards" and mocking Bush's efforts to gather allies in the war on Iraq by calling countries that follow the U.S. a "coalition of idiots."

Man, I would love to air drop her into Iran and let her try and get the Canadian government to come to her rescue.

It would be rather nice if the Secret Service accidentally shoots her while Bush was in town...

Please accept my apologies for this juvenile bitch. Honestly, even that description is probably too kind. While most Canadians oppose the war, I have to add that I don;t think most Canadians approve of this behavior. We're becoming who we claim you (Americans) are, and we're too self-righteous to see it. Pathetic, isn't it?

I wonder what the economic cost of this sort of irrational nonsense has to Canada. I know that I for one have developed a serious distaste for Canada. I no longer visit there. I go to Alaska instead. If a product says 'Made in Canada', I'm inclined to treat it as if it were made in France. I'm sure there are many more like me. And so I wonder if this Canadian infantile hissy fit is producing its intended result (whatever that might be).
I've even lost respect for conservative Canadians for not standing up to it.

I should also add that at least 20% of us support the war in Iraq, so not every Canadian is living with his head in the sand.

True. Canada will always be America's weird aunt in the attic and whackos like Carolyn Parrish will be the weird aunts in Canada's attic.

As a Canadian, all I can do is plead to American conservatives to not judge all Canadians by the inane and hateful words and actions of some of our pathetic political figures. There are many Canadians who are honest, decent people.

The problem with beef sales from Canada to USA is really a Canadian problem. The US won't allow live cattle to into the US yet but there is no prohibition to cuts/butchered beef coming in. The problem Canadian ranchers have, as I understand it, is that the Canadian processors are sticking it to the ranchers because the ranchers have to sell to their packing plants. Of course, it's Bush's fault!

Check out the grin on her face when she does it. She knows she'll be on TV and she's relishing every moment. She's nothing more than a TV slut (phrase borrowed from Maureen Dowd's description of herself on Don Imus's radio show).

Something else occured to me; why don't we see Canadian politicians stomping on fugurines of OSama, Saddam, Yasser and the rest of the merry band of men of terrorise this planet? Only two possible answers :

1) They like them
2) They know what will happen to them if they do something like that

The world is WACKO folks.

True enough.

We Americans don't give a damn what Carolyn Parrish or any other Canadian thinks of our President. The majority of us voted for him.

Canada needs to get over itself and worry a little more about what its own socialism is doing to the income and assets of Canadians.

Cecil Nevin: I, too, am dumbfounded. Dumbfounded that the Liberal Party was re-elected. A "a coalition of idiots" Carolyn ? Look no further than the Liberal Party. Carolyn Parrish -- a failed Parliamentarian, lacking tact, discretion, diplomacy, and good manners. Damn Liberals, I hate those bastards.

Well, folks that shows how impotent, childish and immature the Canucks are(after all somebody elected her to that office and she represents them, right?).

I do feel sorry for...the Hell I don't, they deserve that clown.

Parrish needs to get laid. That's all.

She doesn't even have the intellectual firepower to defend her anti-American/anti-Bush positions. A kneejerk leftist playing to the masses.

I certainly hope the Secret Service will be packing MAXIMUM heat during President Bush's visit, God help ALL you fine Canadians if one of your Bush-hating creeps were to take a shot (on target or not) at our President.

For an example of what I'm talking about, for those of you familiar with Usenet, do a Google Groups search for a little maggot in Nova Scotia who posts in the hfx.general and ns.general newsgroups under the alias 'TkA', and see some of his virulent online threats against the President.

I'm hoping that SOMEBODY is keeping an eye on him, and others like him. Canada is reaping the bitter harvest of more than 10 years of Liberal corruption in Ottawa, and the worst of it is the cultural rot that has taken hold, all of it manifested in a never ending spew of anti-American hatemongering. It starts on the CBC with their alleged 'balanced (laugh-chuckle-snort) coverage', and it continues with the TV and radio programming across their whole damn country.

And to be sure that Canadians do NOT hear anything contrary to the official Liberal line, the CRTC (Canadian equivalent of the FCC) has FORBIDDEN Fox News Channel to broadcast in Canada. BUT: elected officials in Ottawa have FNC on closed circuit. The only real Fox news programming you see in Canada is one hour of Fox News Sunday, or special events in which FOX affiliates preempt regular programming with news coverage.

Pat Buchanan may have been wrong on a lot of things, but he was right on the money when he referred to Canada as the 'Peoples Republic of Soviet Kanuckistan'.

America has TWO Communist regimes on our borders, Cuba to the south of Florida, and Canada to the north.

AND, don't even get me started about Canada's dirty little secret about Cuba: for all of their babble about human rights, Canadians have been flying to Castro's island prison for decades, taking advantage of favorable exchange rates, supporting Castro with their money, all the while Castro's Cuba remains on the list of nations with the very WORST human rights records anywhere on the globe. That is called HYPOCRISY in any language. When Canadians start whining about the U.S. violating the human rights of terrorists, remind them that they've been supporting the continued human rights abuses of Fidel Castro for decades, and they need to clean up their own act before they start preaching to us.

GRRRRR.

Here's one more:

Sara-Jo Pipher, Guelph, Ontario: I just read the sampling of e-mails from other folks on your website. One writer said that the U.S. "fights for all the things Canadians believe in (freedom and democracy);" another said that our own prosperity is deeply linked to the prosperity of the U.S. and so we should welcome this visit. I am appalled. I am outraged. I would hate to think that Canadians tend more to believe in violence, in aggression, and that we have the nerve to call this "freedom" and "democracy"!! I would rather lose some of our prosperity and distance ourselves as much as possible from the current U.S. administration than cozy up to this kind of evil for the sake of retaining dollars.

and another:

Joan Miller: I resent that my hard-earned tax dollars will be used to host this EVIL dictator-George Bush. His aggressive invasions have only fueled hatred toward the U.S. and if Paul Martin concedes anything to him, Canada will also feel the wrath of the Middle East. I hope there is a huge protest against his presence.

"As a Canadian, all I can do is plead to American conservatives to not judge all Canadians by the inane and hateful words and actions of some of our pathetic political figures. There are many Canadians who are honest, decent people."

Amen.

As a intended or unintended slight against Ms Parrish in a cbc.ca news article, there's a quote by Liberal MP Ray Bonin: "There are 32 million Canadians. I'm sure there are a few idiots around." Right opposite this quote is a small photo of Carolyn Parrish. There might as well be a big arrow pointing to that photo. Amen to that too.

Carl Bachellier: It is disgusting that an "employee" of the Canadian people can be allowed to insult a major trading partner. I do business everyday with US companies, and that business provides jobs in this country. She hurts my business. As an employee that steps out of line and damages the livelihood of citizens, she should be fired. Parrish needs to be shown her place. Some of us work in the real world. If this is free speech, then why do people like me have to pay for it? Typical politician. Spending other people's money and credibility.
