I need a break from the politics! As you all know, I am volunteering for Willowdale MP CS Leung who is a part of the Harper team. So far, so good – things look great!
An Election is coming – get ready! Fun, Frustration, Fibs and Facts!
For many of us, this is a terrifying reminder of the years leading up to the Holocaust when many ignored the warning signs, looking the other way and pretending that “this too shall pass”.
The Last Three Years – Priceless! And the arrival of the big 70!
Happy Chanukah! Merry Christmas! Three interesting years just flew by – so it’s time to share and time to review.
Don’t Outlaw Flirting … Please!
Ghomenshi, Junior and Mulcair. Three losers. They happen to be men. I am a fan of menfolk. But their stupidity might ruin all my fun. And I want to protest!
Anatomy of an Election – What Happens in the Back Rooms – and Trolls
Elections are won or lost in the back rooms. In 1985, I chaired Mel Lastman’s re-election campaign. Thirty years ago! I was only ten years old. Wow! I was a novice back then but oh did I learn fast. Federal, provincial, municipal – it isn’t much different today. The game is the same – it is only the players who change.
AM YISROEL CHAI – THE NATION OF ISRAEL LIVES!
Given the events of this past week, I am going to take a pass on a blog about the mayoralty race. I was going to talk more about Chow and her comments in the Hong Kong newspapers looking for non-resident landlords’ proxies and/or votes as well as her support for CUPE, and their support of her. As CUPE takes its usual place front and centre in the anti-Israel movement remember that Chow wants to be …
The Mayoralty Race…….. and The Rebbe
Why can’t women refer to their male friends as boyfriends in the same way we call our female friends girlfriends? Well, I can – and despite the goofy looks or chuckles that come my way when I talk about my “boyfriends” and our 7:00 a.m. breakfasts at United every Saturday, I shall continue on about the fun we have. This morning the conversation was about Chow and Ford and the Mayoralty race. “Chow is going …
The Mayor’s Race – Rob Ford, John Tory, Karen Stintz….. and Chow
The municipal election is scheduled for October 27 – four months away. Enough time to think, to research, to ask questions, to make a decision, to change your mind, whatever. For me, the story is just beginning. So many of you have asked me “how come I won’t ever knock Rob Ford”? The answer is simple. TIFF. In 2012, a group of us involved in the Jewish community found out that TIFF, whose festival runs …
The Provincial Election – What a shocker!
First – disclosure time. I was a volunteer for Conservative Michael Ceci in Willowdale. He is an absolutely terrific young man with an even more terrific team. He is smart, articulate, and being Italian can never hurt. And I have to give kudos to Michael’s mother Nancy who not only ran the campaign office, the volunteers, the telephone lists but was a gracious and fun “boss”. Michael will be a political winner one day soon. …
Politics: Municipal, Provincial, Federal – Let the Games Begin!
First, let’s talk about the mayoralty race. Plenty to say about Rob Ford. But what do you think about Chow who is now supported by the Sheik?
